Raphael: "What were you thinking?! He could have killed you!"

He was shouting now. I could feel the anger inside of him and kept silent. I just looked at him and flinched back. I had flashbacks.

"Hvem tror du at du er? Who do you think you are? Du ar ingen. You are nobody. Jeg venter bare på at du skal dø! I am just waiting for you to die!" I could hear my uncles voice. I saw him in front of me. His greasy hair, the pale skin, the yellow teeth. The smell of alcohol and cigarettes. I flinched back. He grabbed onto my arm, squeezed it hard. I knew I would have red marks on that spot later on that I needed to hide. No one was supposed to find out. The glimmer of his cigarette was like a warning sign. He squeezed my arm even harder and I tried to pull it away. But my oncle just grabbed my neck instead and pushed me against the wall. He took the cigarette out of his mouth and pressed it against the skin on my belly. I began to scream. He breathed the rest of the smoke into my face. "Jeg skulle sende deg til helvete til moren din. I should send you to hell to your mother." He laughed. "Men det er faktisk morsomt å torturere deg sånn. But it is actually fun to torture you like that.Du kan ikke oppstå. Du er så svak, så sårbar. You can't riot. You are so weak, so vulnerable." He let go of my neck and I sunk down onto the floor.

A voice brought me back to the present. It was Raphael.

Raphael: "Explain it to me! Do you f**** hear me?!"

Caleb: "Raphael, stop it! You might say something you will regret. She helped us out. She got him. We would still search for him now. Don't be angry. She did the right thing."

Joanne: "Caleb is right."

I could feel the tears coming up, I censored a burning pain on my belly, still made out a hand on my neck. I ran away, couldn't help it. I just ran in vampire speed and stopped somewhere in an unknown alley. I created a portal and imagined the Grand Canyon. Some seconds later I was there. I sat down on the redish stone.

"Hvorfor er du sen? Skolen er allerede over siden en halv time. Hvor har du vært? Why are you late? School is already over since half an hour. Where have you been?" my uncle shouted. "Læreren forklarte meg noe. Jeg trengte å lytte. Det er ikke høflig å gå når noen snakker. The teacher explained me something. I needed to listen. It's not polite to go when someone speaks." My voice sounded hollow and weak. I was 8 years old. "Du skal ikke være høflig. You are not supposed to be polite." He raised his hand once again...

I almost began to scream. Tears ran over my cheeks. I did not want to go back. I was lost for now. I sat there for hours, no tears were left. I was empty. I heard the sound of a portal behind me. Someone arrived.

Magnus: "My dear, the Grand Canyon? You really wanted to go away I guess."

He sat down next to me. I kept being silent and stared into nothing.

Magnus: "You probably wonder how I found you? Alec and I tracked you down after Raphael came to my apartment, almost crying. We should go back."

He grabbed my shoulder. I flinched back and looked into his eyes.

Magnus: "My sweetheart, let's go. You need some rest. You don't even know who you are right now."

He pulled me up, I did not have the power to riot. I was in like a trance. I could hear him make a portal again and seconds later we were at the Hotel Dumort. I did not want to be here. I wanted to go. Now. Raphael appeared in front of me.

Raphael: "Freja. Thank god, Magnus found you."

He came towards me, I tried to flinch back again but he grabbed onto my waist and hugged me tight. I wanted to riot but did not have the power. I wanted no one to touch me.

Magnus: "I'll let you alone." The sound of a portal, then silence.

Raphael: "I am so sorry." His voice was shaking. The world started to get blurry.

I could feel Raphael lifting me up, he carried me. He brought me to the bed, undressed my shoes and my jacket and joined me. He lay on his back, lifted me up again and put me on top of him. My head rested on his chest. I could feel his breathing. He stroked my back and kissed my hairline.

Raphael: "I can't apologize enough. I was just so angry. Something could have happened to you. I would not want to live anymore if something happened to you. I was so worried. Without a reason. You are so powerful but you are my little princesa. Sometimes I forget what you can do. I am so sorry. Please forgive me. I love you so much."

I could not even answer. Tears were running down my cheeks again, making his shirt wet. He grabbed my chin and forced me face to face.

Raphael: "Are you so angry?" He had tears in his eyes too.

Freja: "I am not." I was sobbing now. Literally sobbing.

He started to kiss my forehead and tried to wipe my tears away. There was no chance of success. My tear-tank full full again. It was more than full.

A/N I'll probably change the flashbacks later on. It looks very messy. Need to find a solution for that. I just really wanted to include Norwegian.
