(Aphelia's view)

I screamed as the whip cut across my back drawing blood. "Tell us where the key is you witch!" One of the hooded figures sneered and I spat blood in his face.

"Never, I'll never tell you." I hissed, as i kicked him in the jaw with my foot causing him to howl in pain.

"Get the hell away from me you bitch!" I hissed as I rolled, coming up on one knee and spun around kicking one of the other captors in the gut.

I nearly managed to get myself onto both feet before I was knocked out cold.

I'm not really sure how long I was knocked out, but I felt a pair of arms picking me up and a body cradling mine close and felt wetness on my cheek.

"Phelia, wake up, c'mon please Pheli, It's me Chris." the voice of my twin begged, and I squeezed his hand to let him know I was listening.

It must of startled the hell out of him because I felt his chest heave slightly as he gasped.

"Phelia, can you hear me? I love you, and I'll find a way to get us out of here." Chris said again, and I slowly opened my eyes.

"C-Chrissy?" I asked in a raspy voice, and he looked down at me before kissing all over my face. "Oh Phelia, I thought I'd lost you!" he cried, as he hugged me close.

"I love you too, Chris." I said, and he smiled down at me.

"What do you say we get out of here?" He asked, and I nodded before crying out as I stood up.

"What's wrong Pheli? Are you hurt?" Chris asked, as he looked at me in a panic.

"Those idiots did a number on me." I said, turning around so he could see my back.

"Oh hell! what did they do to you?!" he cried as he saw how cut up I was.

"It's a long story." I said, and he nodded. "You can tell me once we get home, but for now let's find a way out of this place." he said, and I nodded.
