Pacing around her cell Lili felt like she was going crazy. Clearly being enslaved for over two years was not doing any good for her mental health. Now she had even started seeing strange, inappropriate dreams of a young teenage boy she hardly even knew.
Lili couldn't help but think back on all the things she had seen and done in this new life of hers. She couldn't help but try and think of some positive memories in her life to calm herself down, but the fact was that she hardly had any such things. All she had was the memories of some chickens and her rooster named Terminator that had sadly for some unknown reason been taken away from her. She didn't know her father and the memory of her dead mother just brought her grief, it was hard to see any of this as very positive or uplifting. And then there was the boy named Art that had shown kindness to her and she had even decided to consider the boy as her friend.
She once even had great hopes for the Kane brothers. She had wanted to believe that despite their horrible actions, the brothers would still in the end have some good inside of them.
In her mind she couldn't understand why anyone would be so cruel to such a young looking girl such as herself.
In her mind she figured that surely she had just been too judgemental of them and in the end they would give her freedom. But in the end it seemed that there never was a chance of that actually happening.
From the very start, all that they had ever wanted was money and to get that money they had always intended to sell her off, her actions of helping them had merely prolonged her captivity. It seemed that she had never been anything more than a tool to create money for them.
Then there was Robin, a boy she had hoped to make into a real friend, but in the end that too was a complete and utter waste of time. From the very start all Robin seemed to have ever been interested in was just her body, which disgusted her greatly. The boy never once tried to talk to her like a friend, instead he always tried to flirt with her or just touch her inappropriately.
Despite this she had still wanted to give him a chance, after all he was still just a teenage boy of about 14 years of age. But in the end, after her disfigurement the boys feelings seemed to have become quite clear to her, as after that he seemed to just want to distance himself from her. It seemed that once her pretty face was gone, her value to him had also gone. She couldn't help but wonder had she just been a pretty looking piece of meat to the boy and nothing more? What was all that talk about love? If he truly loved her then where was he now? Why didn't he say anything when she was being taken away?
At the end of the day all she really had was maybe some chickens out there and a potential friend in Art. Although she couldn't help but doubt Art's real intentions, maybe he also just wanted her body and nothing more.
The thought of all this just made Lili want to brake down in tears. She still couldn't understand why she had even been brought into this cruel world? Why was everyone being so mean towards her? Why couldn't she have just been born into a normal loving family?
Even in her past life she had gone without any loving parental figures around and the same was happening here even now. In her heart she swore that if she ever got kids of her own that she would at least do right by them. She would become the best loving mother out there, that she swore.
Sitting down in the corner of the cell Lili scratched her head in search for answers. She honestly didn't know what she was supposed to do now. She couldn't help but think of the blazing red haired girl and the others trapped in here with her, now she truly felt like she understood their depression.
She couldn't help but wonder just how long had they been slaves for, after all they were much older than she was? If they were so old, then just how long would she need to be a slave, before she could get her freedom?
And more than anything she feared what would happen to her now? Would she just be sold again to some other master and what If her next master wasn't as respectful of her body's privacy as the Kane brothers were. The thought of it made her shiver in fear.
She was a fighter in heart, but honestly even she couldn't take much more of this. Mentally she could feel herself starting to break down. Especially after that strange dream she couldn't help but feel that she was going crazy. She really needed to escape from here. All other life goals and future plans could be forgotten as without freedom none of it was even a possibility for her anyway.
Sitting down in the corner of the cell Lili couldn't help but feel annoyed as her ears were constantly being assaulted by the loud noises of the city right outside her small cell window. Even now as morning was starting to approach she could still hear the loud music accompanied by the happy laughter and cheering of people.
Listening to these sounds she could swear that she even picked up what sounded like the laughter of children. The sound of it was like a knife had just struck her heart.
She could imagine children accompanied by their parents as they spent a nice night out in the city listening to all the great music being played in the taverns and then going home to a warm and safe bed with a belly full of food. The thought of it made Lili's eyes tear up as she then broke down and started to sob quietly to herself.
Sitting there in a dark cell, on a hard stone floor all alone with no certainty of safety or a future for that matter just felt wrong. Where were her parents to guide her and to keep her safe. Why is it that those other children had parents and a home to call their own? Why was she not given the same things as they were? What had she done wrong? What had she done to deserve all of this?
Lili couldn't help but feel jealous towards those other children, but most of all she felt cheated. It just wasn't fair.
Lili hugged her legs as tiers slowly rolled down from her one good eye and down her cheek. Her head was pressed against her knees.
Her heart was breaking and her mind was a mess of thoughts. Rocking herself slowly back and forth Lili tried to calm herself down.
She tried to stay positive and remind herself of the fact that she was still alive and kicking and that was enough reason to keep on fighting, but this just felt like her making up pathetic excuses for herself.
The truth of the matter was that she was in a really bad situation in life. Her situation was so bad that she doubted if it was even possible for it to really get worse from here as it certainly wasn't going to get better. In this world she didn't even know if there was such a thing as giving freedom to a slave. Was she just fated to be a slave for the rest of her miserable life, was freedom even obtainable?
The situation just felt so hopeless to her and she found it hard to stay even a bit positive at this point. No amount of determination to stay strong and to keep on trying to do her best was actually going to do her any good, because none of it would give her freedom.
She felt truly and utterly trapped here. Her life was completely in the hands of some strangers that didn't care about her In the slightest, they just wanted to use her for their own gains. It seemed that everyone in this world just wanted to use her to gain something of benefit. No one cared for her and there was hardly anything she could do to make her life better.
In frustration at these thoughts Lili bowled her hands into fists and with all her enraged might she brought her little fists down on the ground. Immediately she felt an excruciating amount of stinging pain as her hand hit something pointy and hard on the ground.
"Aaaaaahhhhhhh!" Lili yelped in pain as she pulled her hand away and looked at what it was that she had just hit.
There right next to her she could see a small rock with an upward pointing edge. Angered by this rock Lili took it into her hand and tossed it hard against the stone wall in front of herself.
Seeing the stone harmlessly bouncing off of the wall Lili started fuming in a tearful rage. Without much thought she tapped into her core of light and immediately started to heal her hand which quickly took the pain away.
Now feeling a bit relieved by this Lili looked angrily to the small rock. She thought of throwing it out of the window to relieve her anger, but then an idea came to her.
Just a few hours ago she had passed out because she had attempted to heal the red haired girl from a distance. Clearly she couldn't just heal her from such a distance, she needed some kind of a way to reach her with her magic. So as she looked at the stone, a idea came to her. What if she could somehow infuse her magic inside the stone and then she could simply throw it to the girl. Basically the stone would be like a grenade of healing light.
The idea seemed unrealistic, but then again so did magic and besides it wasn't like she had much of anything else to do here. So with this in mind Lili quickly crawled to the stone and took it in her hands.
Sitting there on her knees Lili held the stone in both hands and then she started to concentrate. Closing her eyes she pushed her magic towards the stone and immediately she could feel the light magic making contact with its hard surface.
To her surprise the stone itself held a large ball of gray energy that covered the whole stone. Then as she poured her energy into it she could feel a change start to happen.
In her minds eye she could see that the stones gray energy was slowly being mixed with her yellow light. Little by little it started to change into yellow, but even as it did so the gray energy inside of it wasn't disappearing but changing, or more specifically it looked like it was being converted to a bright yellow colour.
Lost in the moment Lili didn't even realise that a few minutes had already gone by. Slowly a feeling of fatigue and weakness came upon her.
Lili didn't want to stop but as she started to feel her mind once more slipping into darkness she knew that she couldn't keep on going. Besides last time she had fainted like this it had led her into a very strange dream that she didn't want to repeat.
With a heavy heart Lili stopped the flow of her magic into the stone and as she did so she could visibly see it start to turn back into a gray colour. She could feel the light energy from the stone start to flow into her wounded left arm.
Little by little the two massive wounds in her arm that had already closed up sometime ago, started to now build the lost flesh back and two clean scars started to form there.
For a few minutes she watched this healing process take place and then as the light energy in the stone disappeared, so too did the healing also end.
She could feel slight pain and discomfort still in her left arm, an indicator that it had not internally fully healed and there was also still an extremely visible scar on her arm.
After realising this Lilis eyes widened in amazement. Sure it appeared that the healing power was weaker when done through the stone instead of her doing it directly, but essentially her experiment had worked.
Now she would just need to build up her power so that she could heal for a longer period of time and she would need a lot more practice with this. She would also need to find a way to make the healing effect last longer in the stone. But for now Lili felt quite satisfied by this new discovery. It wasn't much but this was a good start and a potential ray of hope in her life.
Feeling exhausted after already passing out once and now having done this experiment Lili couldn't help but let out a small yawn. Lazily she rubbed her one good eye and crawled to the pile of straws.
Laying there Lili went into the fetal position and attempted to fall a sleep. Her mood was now slightly uplifted because of her experiment, but still the loud noises of the city could be heard outside of her cell. They were like a constant cruel reminder of her sad fate.
Each happy laugh and song that was played was like a painful stab at her wavering little heart. She tried to push them aside and out of her mind, but she couldn't.
Before she even knew it, there were tiers forming in her eye and she couldn't help but start to let out soft sobs. Right now all she could do was let the tiers flow and try to find comfort in the fact that she at least had magic in her life if nothing else.
But then she heard the right side door of the cell block open with a loud bang. Curious of who could it be that was coming here at this time of night, Lili couldn't help but get up and quickly run to the cell door.
Pushing her head against the metal bars. From there she could only see the light of a lantern lighting up the cell block partially, but at least she could somewhat hear them. She could have sworn that she heard what sounded like the cruel old woman speaking to a masculine sounding young man.
Then she heard the woman say.
"My lord, this one is...."
Immediately after hearing the word my lord Lili automatically blocked out all other sounds as her mind immediately flew to the image of Art in her head. She still remembered hearing that Art had been called my Lord. But more than anything she thought of the inappropriate dream. The thought of it made her heart skip a beat and her cheeks started to redden out of embarrassment.
She wanted to scream in excitement and yell at the source of the voice. She wanted to tell him that she was right here. After all she was in Camelot so surely there would just be one handsome young Lord coming to save her from these chains. She didn't want to admit it but the thought of Lord Art coming to release her from this cell and then proceed to take her into a princess carry, after which he would carry her to his magnificent steed and then they would together ride off into a big beautiful castle. The thought of this honestly made her heart beat like crazy as she so wished it to be like so.
With hopeful eyes she looked into the corridor and listened to their voices. She could hear them stop for a moment at each and every cell and as they did so the young man would say.
"No, not this one."
Then the woman led him onwards and then finally she saw his large figure come In front of her cell door. Immediately Lili felt alarmed by the sight of him. He was maybe 175 centimetres tall and his build was average, well trained but average. Although it was dark and the lantern wasn't all that bright she still could make out his young face quite well. This young man had dirty blonde hair with a short beard. His nose was big and his eyes were a dim blue colour.
Lili couldn't help but feel her hopes immediately sink as she quickly took a few cautious steps back from the young man.
Then he heard the woman speak to him in a questioning tone of voice as she said.
"What about this one, my Lord? She is new here and completely untouched. Sure her face is scarred, but her skin is silky smooth and soft, I can assure you that she's much better than most noble girls. But you don't have to make the decision now. You could always just take a look and inspect her before hand, if you'd like."
After hearing this Lili could feel a chill run through her spine. Now as she looked upon the cold expressionless face of the young man all she felt towards him was disgust and hatred.
Then she saw the man simply nod his head in agreement to the woman's words.
Lili didn't want to believe it, but she could already guess what was about to happen. There was nothing she could do, but nonetheless she clenched her little fists. No matter what she wasn't going to go down without a fight this time, this time she would fight until the very end. At least she was only facing a single young man and a woman here so her chances of victory weren't zero. With pure skill, she just might be able win.
Then the woman pointed to someone off to the side and then looked at Lili and simply said.
"Guards open this door. And, make sure to restrain this little girl. Looks like she's in some desperate need of disciplining."
From the side two burley large middle-aged men with dark hair and big beards walked in. Immediately Lili noticed that the two had big clubs on their belts and a set of keys.
Seeing this Lili couldn't help but feel her body tremble in fear. Being a former Police officer she knew what those kinds of clubs could do. But now she could only just imagine what they would do to a fragile girl like her.
Immediately as she saw their large frames and those clubs, she knew that she stood no chance now. But either way she stood her ground, now there was no longer anywhere for her to go.
Her heart was beating crazily and her body trembled as she listened to the rattling of keys as the guards looked for the right one. It seemed that every cell door had its own key.
Then the bigger of the guards found the right one and went to open the cell door.
In Lilis eyes everything seemed to have slowed down. With nervous sweat on her face she watched the door slowly creep open. She could see the big guard place one foot in the cell and turn his scary gaze upon her.
Immediately she realised that the man didn't intend to hit her with the club, but instead he was going to tackle her to the ground. Just the thought of it scared her.
The man was almost twice as tall as her and weighed at least 6 times more than she did. If the man wasn't a complete moron and knew at least a little about fighting then he would for sure crush her in a second.
Then the cell door flew open with a hard bang that startled Lili a little and then the guard charged. His hands were extended forward and his back arched as he came towards her.
In Lilis eyes the man seemed like some massive polar bear coming right towards her, ready to crush her with its massive paws.
His hands were almost right upon her ready to snatch her into his grip, but just then she got low and went to the right.
The man was slow to react clearly not expecting this and so Lili managed to slip under his arm.
Running to the right side of the cell, Lili got a top of her simple straw bed and grabbed a hold of her piss bucket that was next to it.
The other guard stood at the entrance of the cell with a look of amusement on his face. He was blocking her escape, not giving her any other choice but to fight his partner who once more came towards her.
Lili couldn't help but feel really enraged now. Did these people seriously think that this was funny?
Then as she held the metal bucket in her girlish little arms she couldn't help but immediately notice just how heavy it felt to her.
Turning to the approaching guard bucket in hands Lili could see the guard hesitate as he spread his arms and said.
"Wow there girl. Take it easy, I'm not going to hurt you. We just wanna talk that's all."
Lili couldn't help but frown at his words. Did he think she was that stupid? Obviously they weren't interested in talking to a slave girl.
Enraged by this comment, Lili lifted the bucket with all her strength and took a swing at the man.
The guard acted surprisingly fast as he looked to the bucket and managed to place his hands in its path and immediately on contact he grabbed a firm hold of it.
The bucket came to an immediate hold which surprised Lili a little and then she felt a strong pull as the bucket was ripped out of her hands.
But to Lili this was not a loss, but a great opportunity. Immediately she went forward and sent a straight kick at the man's crotch.
Just as she expected the man immediately fell to his knees in pain and the bucket also fell to the side.
But then Lili froze for a second as she heard the other guard and the young man burst out into laughter as the woman just did a face palm.
Lili couldn't help but feel even more infuriated by this. Truly her desperate struggle to preserve her innocence was nothing more than a joke to these people. But more than anything Lili now felt lost. She was lost on what to do next.
Sure she could kick the man in his crotch, but how could she possibly hope to defeat him. She knew that punching or kicking him would definitely not work, not unless he layed still for a few hours and let her beat his ass for free.
But right now she lacked any means of actually hurting the man for real. The man was simply just so massive and she was so small. Only one thing came to her mind and that was to snatch the man's club from his belt.
The club was completely made of wood with no pointy ends on it, all she could use it for was to beat up the man. Which probably wouldn't work, but right now she didn't really have any other options.
And so she went and grabbed a hold of the club and started to pull it away from his belt. Immediately Lili could feel that the thing was extremely heavy for her. Despite this she pulled and pulled until suddenly the man grabbed a hold of her long hair.
Immediately Lili could feel his strong grip on her and then he pulled hard. Lili screamed in pain.
"Aaaaaahhhhhhh, Iiiiiiiiighh!"
The man came upon her, forcing her legs in between his and then he let go of her hair as he instead pinned her hands on the floor. Lili knowing what was about to happen tried to desperately struggle in his powerful arms as he yelled to her.
"Stop struggling girl! This will all end much better for you if you just stop struggling! Just give up! Besides there's no point in fighting it, from the moment you stepped in here you had already lost! So why even try?"
With hatred in her one good eye Lili looked at the man and through gritted teeth she said.
"Fuck you, you monster! You'll have to kill me if you want me to surrender! Otherwise I will keep on fighting no matter what! A true warrior never surrenders! I am the master of my own body not you!"
The guard just smiled at her smugly and was about to say something. Lili too was about to act as she noticed another opportunity to kick the man in the balls, but then a new voice was heard in the cell block. It was a voice unlike any Lili had heard before, it was a truly feminine and beautiful voice and it said.
"Halt it boys! Why tease such a ugly little girl with no meat on her body, when you have me right here."
Stunned by this beautiful, even seductive sounding tone of voice Lili turned her head towards the sound of the voice and couldn't help but feel shocked by what she then saw.
Not only was she stunned, but so was everyone else here also. Right in the opposite cell to Lilis the blazing red haired girl had her completely naked and nicely developed body pressed right against the cells metal bars.
She was seductively shaking her hips and squeezing her modest breasts as she bit her lower lip and looked to the young man with lust in her eyes. Then she said.
"Come on bad boy. Show me just how mighty a true young lord is. I'm dying to know."
The young man immediately reacted to her invitation. He looked at the guards and said.
"Well, what are you waiting for. Open the damn thing."
The guards were stunned also by all of this and didn't know what to do. Seeing this the old woman just waved her hand dismissively and said.
"Well, what are you waiting for? Do as he said."
Then finally the guards acted. Completely stunned by this Lili just watched as the big guard got off of her and left the cell. They locked her cell and quickly moved to open the blazing red haired girls cell door.
Seeing all of this Lili stood up and wanted to say something, but as her eyes met the red haired girls eyes she froze. The girls stare only lasted for a second. It was intense, gone was her seductive self. Instead she seemed extremely serious as if she was warning her not to say anything.
Lili couldn't understand this. Why was the girl doing this, what did she stand to benefit from this. If she had just kept quiet then the men would have had their way with her and the red haired girl would have been safe.
Seeing this Lili couldn't help but feel like the girl had just sacrificed herself for her. But why? Why would a complete stranger just sacrificed themselves for her? This she couldn't understand. The thought of it immediately caused tiers to come to her eye.
Lili just stood there hopelessly as the girl was pushed down to the ground with that lustful complete stranger atop of her. The red haired girl held a constant smile on her face, but Lili could immediately tell that it was not real. She was merely putting on a show.
Lili watched the young man starting to immediately take off his pants. There was no foreplay, no kissing, no love this was merely a way for the man to went out his sexual desires.
Lili couldn't understand what was going on here, she thought that people came here to buy slaves, but to her horror it seemed like this was also a part of the services that this place offered.
Lili wanted to yell at the boy, she wanted to protest this disgusting act that was about to happen, but in the end all she could do was turn away in defeat. She blocked her ears with her hands, fell to her knees and cried at the cruelty of this world.
But at the same time she just couldn't help but blame herself for all of this. If only she would have been just a bit stronger then maybe she could have won and escaped. But, once more she found herself in a situation where she was completely powerless to do anything.
For now all she could really do was swear revenge on these people. One day hopefully soon she would show all of these people the error of their ways and make a change to this country.
