Chapter 16

In a certain cell somewhere in Bell Reve, a beautiful woman in her late twenties could be currently seen performing a slow but rhythmic aerial dance in her own cell.

She was using an apparatus that was tied on the bars above her own cell to nimbly and flexibly change her position anytime as she performed an aerial dance.

Her cell was located at the very center of this wide room and was made up of metal bars, imprisoning her in all-four-corners while also surrounding the said bars with tall chain-link fences.

As she danced a few feet off the ground with her eyes closed and her long-bonde-messy hair swaying with her movements, one couldn't help but get mesmerized and get the image of a beautiful bird caged in these cold metal bars.

Giving anyone who see her a lonely but lovely vibe coming off of her.

The woman was only wearing white undergarments and a slightly torn but dirty white shirt over them. Giving her a very lewd but exotic look.

Accompanied with that bewitching smile that she has on her face as she danced, anyone would undoubtedly find themselves attracted to her at first sight.

The woman still has her eyes closed while humming a lovely tone that was playing in her head as she softly smiled and swayed on the apparatus.

She was having one of her usual routine in these hellhole called Bell Reve when she suddenly couldn't help but open her eyes in confusion.

Her eyes wondered around and finally landed somewhere as she stared at that certain direction and choosed to listen attentively.

*Bang*

*Bang*

*Bang*

"AAAHHH!!!"

"STOP HIM!"

"ALL OF YOU SURROUND HIM!"

"SHOOT! SHOOT!! SHOOT!!!"

*BANG*

*BANG*

*BANG*

"DON'T LET HIM ESCAPE!"

"HOLD HIM TIGHT DAMN IT!"

"UGGH"

*BOOM*

Several loud noises of gunshots, grunts and yelling entered this beautiful woman's ears and her eyes couldn't help but lit up in anticipation as she stared in that direction with expectation.

(A/N: Damn rhyme.)

'Is puddin' finally coming for me?' The woman excitedly thought as her face melted with love when she thought of a certain man.

But she was soon cut out of her own thoughts when she suddenly heard a loud boom not-so-far-away from her own cell.

*BOOOOM*

One of the doors where the noises were the loudest suddenly exploded in flames, causing the woman to flinch inside her cell, making her retreat in a corner simply out of instinct.

Any other woman might have been already reduced into a shaking and scared lady when faced upon an explosion. But this woman is different.

Horribly different in fact. As instead of fear masking her face, her face was instead adorning a confused but curious expression.

"Who's birthday is it today?" The woman yelled in an innocent voice when she saw a man with missing limbs laying on the floor, hardly breathing.

The man has burns with different degrees on different parts of his body, but this woman doesn't seem to care or even grossed out by the scene she was presented in.

The woman pouted, but she once again called out while waving her hand in that man's direction.

"Not answering? Hey~! Hello~? The man with missing limbs! Yeah! You! I'm asking who's birthday is it today for you to have those fireworks inside this place? Wait, do birthdays even have fireworks? Nah~ whatever~. Anyways~ answer my questions please~?"

The man used all the strength that he could muster to lift his head to speechlessly look at the woman who was calling him. Only to be greeted by the infamous psychotic criminal that they tortured just hours ago.

His expression could not be explained as it seems like it was a mixture of pain, unwillingness, regret and confusion all together along with many more emotions.

The woman was waiting for his reply while wearing a smile on her face when the man's head suddenly fell limply to the floor as all his strength left him altogether, staying there unmoving. Dead.

"What? How could you leave a lady hanging? Come on! I'm bored!" The woman stomped her pretty feet on the ground as she crossed her hands while pouting.

"Couldn't this lady at least be invited in the party?" The woman mumbled complainingly.

Her time on this hellhole revolve around waking up, eating, dancing, torture, eating, bathing, dancing, torture, sleeping and repeat. Yeah, she could only have two meals a day.

Three when she is cooperative, but she just can't cooperate, so two it is!

She hate it. She really do! She hate her situation but what could she do? She could not escape at all! She tried it many times but she would always, at a certain point, be back on this cold lonely cell that she was in.

But that doesn't mean she lost all hope. Even until this very day, she was still trying to find ways to escape. That, or wait until a certain someone bust her out of this misery that she was in.

"THE DRUG! WHERE'S THE DRUG?!"

"SHIT WE INJECTED HIM THREE TIMES ALREADY!"

"EVERYONE HUDDLE UP!"

"HOLD HIM DOWN!"

"UGGHH"

"UGGH"

"UGH"

*BAM*

*BOOM*

*BAM!*

The woman speechlessly stared at the direction where the noises where coming from while blinking her eyes innocently.

She thought of the words that she heard and connected the dots inside her head. "Drug? Huddle up? Hold him down? Wow! I never thought these guys could be so wild to violate a man!"

Obviously, her conclusion was really far off from what is really happening as she didn't even considered the limbless guy laying lifelessly near her cell as though she has completely forgotten about it.

The noises that was coming from that direction was slowly dying down, but she did hear what she could consider as several satisfied sighs coming from them.

"Woah~ They're really satisfied huh~. Must have been wild~". The woman commented while giggling at the thought. She couldn't wait to tease the guards about it.

Left with nothing to do, she once again climbed the apparatus to continue her aerial dance. Ignoring the heavy footsteps that she was hearing coming from that direction as she continued humming a beautiful tone.
