*Pov: Alicia*

I woke up to the pain, on a cold metal floor, my shoulder felt like there was a burning rod through it, I was afraid they would hurt me again if I cried… …so I tried really hard and kept it in.

I opened my eyes to see where they brought me now, only to have my eyes cross with my captor.

“A-“ my voice got stuck in my throat. She had Inhumanly cruel cyan eyes like the old beasts and a bloody roll of tape in her hands. Behind her I could see a cargo container that had been taped shut, it had blood on it,

...I am sure that my horror was transmitted to her, as she suddenly started smiling in a twisted way...

That smile sent cold shivers down my spine. This person is dangerous, definitely even more dangerous than the people who kidnapped me.

As I was about to make a run for it, she grabbed me by the arm, so I could not escape, I kept struggling. ‘Oh god, I am going to get eaten’ I thought in my head as she opened her mouth.

A soft cold voice, much like how Death must sound like, resonated.

“Hold still, I can't repair you if you keep struggling”  

…Eh?

*20 minutes later*

His name is Rasmus, and he isn’t actually a girl, but a boy.

After he told me to stay still, he bandaged my shoulder, and gave me a nutrition bar to eat. It tastes like sawdust but since I had not eaten anything for days it still tasted like heaven to me.

You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author.

After I calmed down a bit I feel a bit embarrassed of my reaction, ...I don’t think he is actually that bad.

(Or trying to eat me! that was a weird thought…*embarrased* )

He just looks scarier than he is because of those cyan eyes and pale skin.

I still haven’t dared to ask what that container was, but I am pretty sure it contains others like me… I heard banging from inside of it a few minutes ago… I think I don’t want to know...

...If I ask he might put me back into it as well…

He might not be a good person, but he is not as bad as the others. He doesn’t hurt me, he even bandaged my arm.

...and he has yet to… Try anything like that to me. …He is better than those people…

After I finished the nutrition bar he helped me to the cockpit of his Walker and had me sit in an empty compartment behind him, telling me to hold on tight if we end up in a fight later. Seeing the Walker connect to the ports in his flesh was the creepiest thing I have seen...

Feeling the Walker stand back up from a kneeling position, I tried to make myself cozy in the small compartment. Knowing that it would be the most comfortable place I would get in the future, after this trip is over he will hand me over to ‘Them’ after all…

…The blanket he gave me is Warm…
