Emerald Eyed Luna novel Nina (by Mrs.Smith) novel Chapter 46

It was hard to tell if it was days or nights here. All I could gauge was when a new girl would come to bring me food, water and empty my waste bucket. I tried to ask questions but I never got a response. Raven had successfully healed me. I knew I was losing weight as I got the tiniest portions of the same slop, I got every day. I was starting to get very angry about being stuck inside here. I hadn’t heard from that mystery man again. I hadn’t seen or heard why I was even taken in the first place. This is all bullshit!

I was just getting angrier and angrier just thinking about my situation! Who the fuck do they think they are! I am NINA ELIZABETH FUCKING MCCOY! I let out a frustrated/angry scream. It was from the deepest parts of my soul. I wanted my bed, I wanted actual food and I wanted Wyatt. As soon as I let it rip, I felt a gust of wind come up and my cage door flew open!

I stood still I complete silence. My mouth was about on the floor. What did I just do? I am supposed to have powers, I guess. I did throw Wyatt once… Slowly I crept towards the door.

“Careful, we don’t know who I around” Raven said.

I didn’t bother replying as she could hear my thoughts and was not sure why, but thinking just felt “loud”. I poked my head out and saw a row of cells on each side and a door at the end of a hallway. There was no one around. As quietly as I could, I started walking towards the door. In each cage, I saw women either naked, bruised or covered in rags like I was. What is this place? I finally made it to the end of the room to the door. I stuck my trembling hand over the handle and as gently as possible, turned the door knob.

“We need to cover our scent” Raven said, and I felt a tingle run over me.

“Did you just?” I asked, stunned.

“I’ll explain later, we need to get out of here first’

As I cracked the door, I peeked out. I saw what looked like cement everywhere. I didn’t see anyone, so I opened the door and walked out. This looked like an old prison that had been abandoned. There were metal bars over each cell. Cement lined the floor, walls and ceilings. Swinging lights had spider webs connecting them. I looked on each side and felt a need to go towards the right side so I did. I crept along the wall slowly with my back angled toward the wall so I could see everywhere. I was crouched down, keeping my breathing and heart steady. As I walked, I replayed what my dad grilled into me. Each move, each punch, kick and motion. I needed to be invisible and have precision accuracy. This would be hard with these baggy clothes and being malnourished but damn if I was going to allow myself to be a prisoner.

Suddenly, I heard laughter and the turn of a squeaky door knob. I dashed to the shows and held my breath. Two guys walked out of a room and staggered down the hallway. They looked drunk. As they passed me, I heard them talking. “I want her tonight; you can have the other one!” I knew they meant rape. I couldn’t just let them rape someone! I saw through the door they had just come from. It led to outside.

Thinking quickly, I had to do something. “Make it look like an accident. Drunk bastards!” Raven said, full of disgust. Slowly stepping out from the shadows, I crept up behind them. Luckily, one of them fell face first. All that was needed was for me to grab his air and slam his head on the floor, making it look like he had tripped. The other guy didn’t even notice what happened. I quickly walked up to the second guy and pulled him back hard, causing his head to bounce off the ground. Both of them smelled of piss and beer but they were out cold and neither saw me.

I walked quickly to the open door and peaked out from the side. I saw multiple tents, just basic tents really. A stick on either side with one in the middle holding up a blanket. The fires have pretty much gone out and are only smoldering at this point. Guys were either passed out scattered around the fire or I saw feet popping out from the tents. There were a group of guys to my left singing ’99 bottles of beer on the wall’ as they swayed and about fell off the wood stumps they sat on. I have so much rage built up inside me. I really wish I could just kill them all.

“Focus Nina, we need to get out and we will come back and kill them all. We can’t save these women if you get yourself killed!” Raven scolded. That simmered my anger down a little, but I did focus on my surroundings. I have no idea where I was, but I felt like I needed to go straight. Slowly but quickly, I walked over passed out guys, food wrappers and literal shit holes. The moon was high in the sky and there was a warm breeze. How much I missed just lying under the moon.

“FOCUS!” Raven said. Damn, I am just happy to be out of there. So I ran, and ran. I found a stream. Bending down, I decided getting wet was not my best option, but I needed to hide my shirt and pant colors. I needed to blend in as much as possible, staying as small as possible. Changing into my wolf would be a larger target. I needed to save that till I absolutely needed to. I got a drink from the water and then I took my shirt and pants and rubbed grass and mud on them to camouflage them. I rubbed mud on my face, hands and feet. Thank the fucking Moon Goddess, my dad forced me to train barefooted. As I coated my feet, I heard a siren go off. I completely froze. I heard yelling and screaming and I knew they found out I was missing.

I took off running like I had never run before. Raven gave me her strength and speed. I could not and would not let myself get caught again.

“Is my scent still masked?” I asked Raven.
