They found her a few hours later, shivering on the floor, whispering things the KND operatives couldn't understand. They had driven her to the medical lab as she was in a bad condition.
There were bruises all over her body and the spot between her legs was injured. Her clothes were ripped, almost covering herself.
Everything on her screamed she was raped. But no KND operative wanted to believe this, until she would be in a condition to talk.
She was shivering like crazy, tears were falling from her eyes like she was crying silently...
…
Two days later...
"Numbuh 362?" Numbuh 5 called into Rachel's room. Rachel was sitting on her bed looking out of the window.
Abby walked to the bed and sat on a chair next to it. "How do ya feel?"
"Better" Rachel whispered. Abby touched her friend's hand and tears started falling from Rachel's eyes.
"Numbuh 5 knows you're still not" Abby told her sadly. Rachel looked at her.
"Abby...he raped me.." Rachel told her and hugged her legs.
"...who did this Rachel?"
"It was him...that monster...Chad..." she whispered. "You know...I haven't been better all my life, Rachel" he had whispered in her ear as he was biting her neck.
Rachel shut her eyes, trying to move his deep voice away from her head.
"Chad..Chad Dickson?" Abby asked her and her eyes widened.
"Don't say his name!" Rachel shut her ears with her hands.
"Rachel...shhh...he's not here...he won't hurt you again-"
"He said he will come back!" Rachel screamed. "He said he will come back and do this again!" She was sobbing like crazy now. "He'll come back...he'll come back..." she was saying between her sobs. Abby was shocked, she hadn't seen Rachel like this before...she hadn't seen anyone like this before.
…
At night...
Rachel had never felt scared of dark before. Maybe it was because she knew there was no monster there.
But now...it was different. For her..he was there. In every single shadow...behind every single furniture..he was there...it seemed like his poisonous blue eyes would appear to look hungrily at her.
"He's not there.." she whispered at herself. "He won't hurt me again..."
Was that a sound? No...it must be only her imagination...nothing else.
Rachel froze. She was sure she had heard a breath. She sat on her bed and looked around her scared.
"Who's there?" she asked aloud. Silence. "Who is it?" she asked louder and her voice shook.
"Are you scared?"
Her body froze. Her throat dried. Her breath stopped.
That voice.
It was him.
She tried to scream but it was like someone had muted her. He slowly appeared from the shadows like the last time...
"Rachel" he said and looked at her. And smiled as always.
Rachel felt like a mouse in front of a cobra.
