Slaughter event 9.

"1000 bucket " a shouting voice came from one of the guard as the other walked to unchain her hands and Fred rushed to her not able to control himself any longer , he grabbed her fallen body , picked her up and carried her on a bridal style leaving all the other guards on awe state .

" Please Sir can I do this ?" he asked standing before the guard he came with and the guard nodded then lead the way to the cell she was supposed to be put until the night is over .

" You pity her , don't you ?" the guard asked him again as soon as they walked inside her cell and Fred placed her on the floor again regretting the words he said earlier that they deserve for what they did .

Fred went silent not replying the question when the guard sighed and walked closer , " Am Gift , if you need help you can ask me " .

Fred was surprised by the words that came from Gift's mouth but as he was finished he walked away . Fred gasped as tears rolled down his cheeks on looking at Elvi , her eyes being closed , her face paled and her body covered on bruises all over .

" Elvi " he called but nothing came , he cried out his heart on seeing her like that but then an idea came to him as hebwalked down the cells grabbed some warm water and went back to the cell and started to clean her body .

After he was done he walked again and went to find Gift . He used sometime in finding him but at last he found him in his office .

" You said if I need any help to ask you out " Fred spoke calmly , " I knew you would come , you like the girl and I know you want her to live but she has a death to face tomorrow "

" If you help me and she lives , she won't die " Fred spoke more confident of himself and Gift narrowed his eyes , " The security is so tight in here escaping isn't your plan right ?" Gift asked and Fred nodded .

" Well then let's go and help her cause am curious of what you'll do to save get tomorrow ".

They walked down back to the cell and Gift gave the other guards the permission to go and rest, he and Fred shall guard her .

After the guards walked out , Gift wentbout and collected some woods and came with some more blankets and some medicines .

Fred made up the fore and brought Elvi closer to fire to give her warmth as he covered her with blankets , time went by as the men's did everything they could to make her feeling warm and better .

They provided her with the medicines that maybhelp her to stabilize before gaining some more energy .

In the middle of the night Elvi's eyes opened to see two men's face and one of which she was so familiar with . " She's awake" Gift tapped Fred's shoulder who was now sleeping holding Elvi .

Fred's eyes shot open and smile plastered his face on seeing her , " Elvi " he called but she was numb and also a living dead by the time .

Gift took more of the medicine and gave Fred who made her drink all of them although she choked some of them , not wanting to taste their bitter taste .

Tears rolled down her eyes from time to time and Fred got worried suddenly , " Don't cry Elvi , I promise I will get you out of here and you'll be safe " .

" Mo-th-er " she spoke in a low voice that was not heard at all .Fred bent down to her ears as he saw her lips moving like saying something .

" Mother " came a slow sound but since he was on his ear and his heart dropped on the thought of what was going to happen to her tomorrow because he was sure to get Elvi out of there .

" She's okay " he said to her putting a sad smile oh his face , she nodded and he smiled again .

" How are you feeling ?" he asked and Elvi looked at him and then to Gift who also smiled at her , " Get well kid , this guy here on me your safety and life tomorrow " .

Fred looked at Gift then Elvi who had a confused expression , " Please give us sometime " Fred asked and Gift walked out leaving the two of then he looked at her with a smile .

" Marla is okay but she's so worried about you " he started a conversation when a tear dropped from her eyes , " Don't cry , I promise to get you out of here but there is something your mother gave me " he spoke taking out a piece of paper from his pockets .

" Here let me read it for you " he spoke but Elvi raised her hand and he handed it to her as he made her sit on her own but offered His hand to lean on for support .
