Is she bluffing there's no way she knows or she would have told 12 for sure I know one thing I can't risk letting her know what the core is. I decided to play dumb and say "I told you the problem is there are way too many moments looking at all of them won't help me at all." She let go and looked like she was bluffing after all. She grabbed my arm and started walking. I don't think she knows where we are going.

I followed her all around the city watching her get more and more upset. I decided to wait and see what happens. If she breaks I can find out the conditions if she doesn't then I'm sure the other 3 will find out something. She walks around the town searching everywhere for them but they're nowhere to be found.

She looked at me and said "You know where they are right." I knew she would get tired of looking eventually I tried to hold it in but a little giggle came out. I told her "I might know it all depends if you tell me what I can and cannot say who knows. Maybe their location violates one of your rules I don't know about."

She laughed for a bit then punched me just like last time she grabbed me by the arm and said "If you truly know then I'll just beat the information out of you." She punched me to the ground again. Getting hit in the same place three times with that amount of force was getting to me. She told me "Tell me what I want to know and you don't get punched again."

There was no point in staying here. I wanted to get some info out of 1 and keep her under surveillance but my only hope is running. I got up and started running. My body was hurting a ton but the adrenaline only made me run faster. I didn't look back all that I could think of was escaping but I felt something grab my arm. I felt my arm get jerked back and the rest of my body follows. I was on the ground again and 1 punched me in the stomach. I should have known there not normal the twelve always had some inhumane ability. The problem is what do I do now?

She punched me again and I screamed in pain. She chuckled a bit and said "You don't seem like you can take much more. Tell me what I want to know and I won't hit you again, got it." What now I can't out run her there, there is no way I can out fight her either there has to be something that can get me out of this.

Then I felt another sharp pain my stomach it was another punch from 1. The pain was getting to much to bear should I just rat them out. I can't that would lead us back to square one I can't let this pain block my judgment. I felt it again another punch she really isn't going to stop till I spill huh. Maybe I can use a false location just to give myself time to think but where? I cried "There at 4710 wills street." She backed off her last punch. I explained myself "It was where we originally hid before you guys captured us. That's the only place I can think of."

She grabbed my arm and started to drag me to Adam's original house. Good, the pain is still strong but this gives me time to think. If we take the bus there's a good chance I can escape her grasp but at the same time everyone here probably knows and respects 1. Maybe something in the house? Some sort of weapon no matter how strong she is, if I have a knife I have the advantage. I don't want to get there before I make my escape though I would like to leave as fast as possible. Who knows what she'll do if she found out I lied.

Her grip is tight on my arm. I can't just shake it off even if I could, she's way faster than me. That leads into two problems. I need a way to out run her and a way off her grip. Well I don't necessarily need to out run her I can hide instead. I check my internal clock at 6:37 pm. It should be dark soon if I loosen her grip I might be able to get away. The first thing that comes to mind is to force her to grab something with two hands and sprint to the nearest safe spot. The problem lies with how to do that if I even can.

We got on the bus and I knew I only had 20 minutes to prepare. Maybe I could make the bus crash? That wouldn't work, not only is that pretty much impossible with 1 on me I could suffer injury. There's got to be something I could use, something that could make her let go. The only thing I can think of is starting a commotion but how. In theory 1 should be popular but no one seems to care that she's here at the moment. That was my only way of starting something. Is it really hopeless?

I see the sun fall that might make things a little easier on me but our bus stop is less than 5 minutes away. I couldn't think of anything. I went through all the possibilities: bus crashes, commotions fighting back, screaming for help, manipulation. They all lead to dead ends. She has me backed into a corner and her grip on me is too strong for me to shake off.

In a desperate attempt of my own safety I try to lie my way out the situation. "Hey when we get there I think I should walk in there solo if they see you they might run away or hide." She tightened her grip and said "Under no circumstances will I let go of you." Not only was my last attempt of freedom a failure she also just confirmed that I'm her top priority.

We got off the bus and my situation looked hopeless. She was going to find out I lied and then what? Beat me, kill me, send me to the void? We walked home and nothing but stress filled my mind. I have no more plans of escape, no clever way to get her off of me this time it was over.

We opened the door and as expected no one was home. I almost started crying in anticipation of what was going to happen but I need to try something just anything before the pain hits me. I pulled myself together and said "I told you they must have run or hid there no way they were going to see you and just stay her-" She punched me directly in the face and I fell to the ground. I try to explain in some last ditch attempt how they must have ran through the back door but she just kept fighting. Getting punched over and over again she picked me up and yelled at me "Even I know they would have tried to save you I'm not that dumb." There are so many flaws in her logic. If they're going to try to save me, why wouldn't they have done it at any other time. I couldn't explain anything, the punches kept coming and I couldn't get a word out. She leaned back for one final punch and on impact everything faded to black.
