"No! Please don't take him! No, please! Give him back to me!"
Was what Accalia yelled to the guards as they mercilessly took her newly born baby boy away from her. She hadn't even been given the chance to hold her own baby, before it had already been taken away.
Even the old priest who acted as a doctor said nothing, not even a sorry. He had simply cut the umbilical cord and just watched as the crying baby had been taken away from his, now devastated mother.
It was truly a sad sight to see, but it definitely wasn't unexpected as the same had already happened to all the other girls who had also given birth. Truly this place was hell on earth.
Not only was this place filled with the constant cries of the girls, but it was also freezing cold thanks to the snowless winter outside their cell windows.
Here Lili was forced to endure the cold as she listened to the girls pitiful cries which made Lili feel like thousands of needles were constantly poking at her little heart. She couldn't even begin to imagine the pain that these girls were going through as even she, as just a spectator couldn't help but break down in tiers and cry along with them.
Lili only being 10 winters old this winter was only but a small little girl, powerless to do anything to help the other girls. Her body had thus far been left untouched, but she knew that her turn was coming up soon. She had seen the way the men looked at her and the old lady too.
It was but a few days ago when the old madam as she was called had finally after a long time come into her cell. With but a quick glance at her, the Madam had said.
"Hmm, your about 118 centimetres tall. Quite a small thing for your age. Hmm, you have a toned body, good hips, a big butt and breasts. By the looks of your butt, legs and breasts, I would have to say your about 24 kiligrams. A bit on the heavy side, just the way the customer is sure to like it."
Hearing all of this, Lili quickly tried to cover her half exposed breasts. She looked to the ground and couldn't help but feel extremely violated and ashamed at the same time.
She didn't want to admit it, but yes her womanly parts were gaining way more fat and even some muscle, compared to her arms for example. She hadn't been given any new clothes for the entire time she had been here and because of that her rags could hardly anymore cover her private parts.
Sure her height hadn't increased much, but these new developments had gathered a lot of unwanted attention from the customers and even the guards.
Then the Madam had moved to inspect the rest of her body, she took special notice of her face as she then said.
"Strange, your ear has fully healed and your nose seems somewhat better. Hmm, sadly your face is still greatly scarred and that eye doesn't seem like it has gotten any better. Your skin looks pale, but smooth and flawless. Hmm, very good. I think you'll be ready a lot sooner than I originally thought."
Her words although quite brief, managed to make Lili shiver in disgust. She couldn't help, but frown at the Madam as she walked back out of her cell and out of her sight.
Taking this as a sign Lili knew that her time was near. She needed to leave and soon. She couldn't stand the thought of letting some fat and most likely ugly man buy her and then proceed to use her as a tool to relieve stress.
Only if the man happened to be Art, then maybe she might be able to accept it. She felt so sure that he would definitely be gentle with her and he would keep her safe.
After that one strange dream, she had made sure not to pass out again like that. And it seemed that because of that Art had mostly stayed out of her dreams. Although, from time to time the boy kept showing up in a few more of her dreams.
The dreams, a lot of the time seemed quite innocent at first, but for whatever reason the two of them just couldn't keep their hands off of each other. The thought of it made Lili always feel so embarrassed. She honestly couldn't help but wonder, what might happen if Art truly did come to buy her? How would she react? The thought of it made her feel so warm inside, but she knew that there just wasn't any way of that actually becoming true. It just seemed too good to even be a realistic possibility. No, she knew it couldn't happen. Her only choice was to leave this place before some complete stranger got to her.
With this in mind Lilis face turned serious as she stood on one hand. She was doing a one hand stand while listening to Accalias crying in the other cell.
Then she noticed Accalias bright red eyes turning to look at her. The woman's face was visibly full of pure rage and anger as she looked at Lili and said.
"Today. Today those bastard's are going to pay. I'm going to kill them all. I'm going to get my son and we are going to get back our freedoms."
Lili kept her one hand, handstand position as she raised a questioning eyebrow at her words and asked.
"But, you just gave birth. We should wait. Surely you need time to recover."
Accalia opened her mouth and from behind her top row of teeth she took out her Light stone and said.
"Thanks to you, I'm all better already. Let's just do this."
Lili felt her heart rate increase, the thought of escaping, while exciting, it was also extremely scary to her. But the fear of what would happen if she stayed here was even greater.
Getting back on her feet Lili walked to her cell bars and said.
"Agreed, let's do it. No retreat, no surrender. Only victory or death."
Accalia slammed her fist against her chest and simply nodded her head in affirmation.
Looking at the 20 year old Accalia Lili couldn't help but feel great admiration towards her. Long gone was the depressed young and skinny girl. Now what she saw was an extremely fearsome looking blazing red haired Amazonia warrior.
Accalias body was toned. She had great abs, a big strong butt and legs. Her chest might have seemed like it was just two big melons, but Lili knew that the girl had great strength behind them.
Even during her pregnancy Accalia was capable of doing a few muscle ups and before her pregnancy she could even do a few one arm pushups. Sure she wasn't no super soldier, but she was for sure going to beat Ratbags ass into a bloody mess.

The hour was late. The sun had started to set and darkness was less than an hour away. Lilis cellblock was silent, only the squeaking of four wooden wheels and Ratbag yelling could be heard as he kept on saying.
"Dinner, dinner, yes yes. Girls must eat dinner yes yes. Very good dinner, extra crunchy, chewy and sweet, hmm, yes yes."
As he moved down the hall, handing out all the food. His simple mind failed to take note of the silent cellblock.
None of the girls went for the food. No, instead they all stood in silence and watched Ratbag passing by. They all held small rocks hidden in their hands.
Soon Ratbag came to Lilis cell and started to hand out her food. Lili too just stood in silence and watched this happen. And she too did nothing.
Then came Accalias turn. Lili watched as Ratbag grabbed Accalias bowl of soup and carefully moved it towards the small opening in the cell door. Seeing this Lili then clenched the sizable stone in her hands.
She watched as Ratbags hands slowly reached inside Accalias cell. Then as if they had just read each others minds, Lili and Accalia nodded towards one another and then Lili let loose.
With all her might she hurled the stone straight into the back of Ratbags, rat faced head. He immediately flinched out of pain and dropped the bowl of soup and yelled like the rat he was.
"Aaaiiiiiiiiirghh!"
He tried to pull back, but before he could Accalia lunged at his exposed hands. She grabbed at them with all her might, immediately placed her legs against the metal bars and pulled.
The rat was completely taken off guard and off balance as his head was pulled hard against the metel bars of the cell. His head hit the metal bars so hard that the sound of it created a loud bang which caused the metal bars to vibrate slightly.
Once more Ratbag let out what sounded like a loud squeak of pain.
"Aiiiikkk!"
Hearing the loud bang and the screem sent a chill of fear into Lilis body. She wasn't sure, but the guards weren't probably far and might be alerted by the noise.
Quickly as Accalia kept on banging Ratbags head against the bars, Lili took out a small stone hidden in her straw bed and yelled to the others.
"Fire at will!"
Soon small stones started to fly crazily towards the trapped rat man. The rocks didn't do much, but after banging Ratbags head against the bars for more than ten times the man was starting to go silent. Only small squeaks of pain could still be heard coming from him. Lili could already see a lot of blood on the bars, she couldn't help but just guess how bad the rat man's face must have looked like right now.
"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" Was the sound that could be heard and then Accalia did something that Lili didn't expect.
She pushed Ratbags arms against the metal bars and then kicked them. The skinny arms immediately let out a cracking sound as they bent into an unnatural angle.
Ratbag let out the loudest scream that Lili had ever heard.
"Aaaaaahhhhhhhiiiiiiiiiiiighhhhhhhheeeeuu!"
Alarmed by this Lili yelled to Accalia.
"The keys? Get the keys! Hurry!"
Accalia seemed to quickly realise the urgency of the situation as she pushed her hands past the metal bars and started to search for the keys.
Just then Ratbag went completely limp as he seemingly passed out from the pain.
Finally Accalia found the keys, after which a loud yell could be heard coming somewhere from the far left cellblock.
"Hey! What's going on there! Ratbag, you ok?"
Accalia fumbled for a few seconds with the keys and then finally found the right key to her cell door, but so too did the guards find their way to the cellblocks door.
Lili could hear them attempting to open the door as they fumbled around with their many keys.
Finally Accalias door lock made a clicking sound as its lock opened. Seeing this Lili quickly took note of the keys and managed to point out the key to her cell as she said in a panic.
"The pointy one! It's the pointy one in the middle! Quickly, please open this door."
With force Accalia pushed open her cell door. The force of her push moved Ratbags limp body to the side along with the door.
She quickly ran to Lilis cell door as she took hold of the right key and said.
"Oh, don't worry my sweet child, Mommy is coming for you."
Lili's heart was beating crazily as she watched her place the key inside the keyhole and then the key turned. The click sound of the lock opening could be heard and then as it opened, Accalia snatched Lili immediately into a big bear hug.
Lilis senses had not warned her of this and so she was completely taken off guard, by the sudden hug. Her mind immediately went into a panic, her first reaction was to escape the young woman's strong hug, but she couldn't. Suddenly Lili felt scared and now she didn't know what to do anymore.
Accalia held her tight, her head was right next to hers and that's when she said.
"Don't worry baby girl. Mommy is right here. You're safe now. I'm not going to let them hurt you anymore."
The words, although simple, struck Lili hard. Suddenly Lili felt a kind of a warmth in her heart that she had never felt before. All of a sudden all her fears and worries were washed away and in their stead there was a calming warmth. There was a feeling of safety and security.
Never once in this life or the one before this had she felt anything like this. The only times she had ever come close to feeling this was when Art had hugged her and when she was but a infant child in her now dead mothers arms.
Quickly a tier came into her one good eye. She could feel some unknown feeling coming over her. The feeling felt so good and she just couldn't help but let it take over as she then hugged Accalia back and said.
"Mother."
