Chapter 103

I woke up with my head pounding. I went to hold my head, but something stopped my arm. I pulled again and knew I had been tied down. I knew that feeling well. I picked my head up and tried to look around. Moving my head was agony but I needed to know where I was. I reached out and was glad my doors were still there. I sent a probing thought. 

'Oh thank Odin! Where are you, kitten? We will come get you!'

I tried to see around me, but it was dark. 'I don't know where I am. It's dark. I know my head is splitting, my shoulder hurts like a bitch, and I'm tied down.' 

They felt my slight panic at being tied down. But I was keeping it together because I had to get out of here. 

'I'll make sure I let you watch thorough my eyes for lack of better explaining. Showing you what I see. I'm not from here so I won't know landmarks or anything. Maybe you will recognize… Shit!'

'What!? What's happening Doll?'

'The door's opening, and someone's coming in.'

The lights turned on and it blinded me for a minute. As my eyes adjusted, I saw several men come in. They all looked at me with dead eyes. I looked at a man with a scar on his face. It started in his hairline and ran to his chin. His eyes were bright and looked excited. This chilled me to the bone. I knew that look. It was the same look Charlie and Daniel always had. I knew that whatever happened was going to fucking hurt.

"Ah you're awake and decided to join us. We have so much fun planned for you."

I paled. I'd heard those words before many times. I heard my guys yelling in my head for Tony to find me and find me now. I knew everyone there was confused on how they knew, and we'd have to explain later… if there was a later.

He picked up something from the table and I saw it was a pair of scissors. As he moved towards my feet, I realized what he was going to do. I fought the bonds, but he just laughed and started to cut my clothes off. By the time he got to my waist of the first leg I had stopped fighting and just laid still with my eyes closed. I didn't make a sound, but I was whimpering in my head. 

'It's ok love. We are here with you, and you are not alone this time. Bucky, Thor, and I are right here.' I knew Loki was upset when he used Bucky's first name. 

'Lokes… I'm scared. I don't want this again. And I don't want you to feel this.'

I tried to close the bottom of my doors, but they held them open. They were not going to let me do any of this alone, not even the pain.

'Do you know any of these men?'

'Yes Angel. We know the one with the scar. Francis. He is not a nice man.'

'I'm not gonna lie to you Doll. He likes torture. Just for fun. This is going to hurt Dollface, but we aren't going anywhere. We're gonna hurt with you. Tony's working hard to find you. We're watching and listening to get any clues we can.'

I swallowed. This was Charlie all over again. I looked at the man with the scar, Francis, with fear. He had finished cutting my jeans off and my shirt. He left me in the blue lace bra and panties I'd bought since Bucky loves blue. My mind was rambling. 

"We are going to have some fun now, my dear. Hmm, what should we start with. Ahh, this will do nicely."

He picked up what looked like a poker stick like you used in a fireplace. I wasn't sure what it had been resting in, but it was white hot. He walked to over to my shoulder, and I knew what was coming. I gritted my teeth. He shoved the poker into my wound, and I thrashed around but didn't scream. 

"We don't want you to bleed out now do we. That would end the fun too soon. Now, what should we do next?"

He picked up a cattle prod from the table. I panicked. Not even Daniel had thought of this.

'Guys… I'm not going to heal unless it's life threatening. Something tells me that wouldn't be good for them to know. If… if I don't make it out of this, know that I love you so much. You were the best things to every happen to me.'

'You are going to make it Ariane. I swear it. I will find you. I wish I could save you from what is about to happen, but I can't as I don't know where you are. If I did, I could teleport us to you.' I could feel Loki crying.

'I love you all… Kokoro no Yokubo, Kokoro no Kiseki, Kokoro no Nagai.'

My thought abruptly ended as the cattle prod was used on my leg. My body clenched and shook from the volts of electricity that ran through my body. I felt it burn my leg where it pressed against me. God, it hurt. I ground my teeth. I would not dignify him with a scream.

He stopped the voltage, and I laid there panting. 

"Why am I here? What did I ever do to you?"

He smiled and it chilled me. "We'll get to that in a little bit. I wanted to have some fun with you first."

He shoved the cattle prod to my ribs and watched as my body shook and thrashed. I glared at him with hate, still not screaming. He frowned. I was ruining his fun by not screaming.

"You will break, and you will scream. They always do. I want to hear your screams of pain."

He shoved the rod against my breast, just over my nipple. I had a few moments to know what he was going to do and brace for it, hearing my guys roaring in anger and horror. 

'God damnit, Tony, find her! They're torturing her! Fucking find her!' I had never heard Bucky scream at Tony before.

The prod went off and the pain was immense. My body bucked and my wrists and ankles bled as I was jerking against the bonds. I could smell burning cloth as my bra melted over my nipple. But I still didn't scream. It was not as bad as when my magic was born. That was my new pain level max. If it wasn't as bad or worse than that, I wouldn't scream. 

I had a few seconds to breathe before he did the same to my other nipple. I could feel my skin burn. When I still didn't scream, he looked at me as he gave a slow smile of pleasure.

"Oh, I'm going to have so much fun with you. Just continue to keep silent. It will prolong my pleasure."

I closed my eyes against the nausea I felt as his words. Bastard was getting off on this. Sick fuck.

I felt the rage coming through as he continued to work my body with the prod. Eventually, he got tired and decided to do something different. I froze when I saw what it was, terror coursing through me. It was a small whip like the one they used on horses. He saw my fear and smiled.

"Oh yes. I think this will do nicely."
