It had been thirty-six hours since I kidnapped Jessica Stanley and began my torture. So far she had lost her tongue, her hair, all of her fingers, one ear, and the only part of her lips that was left was muscle and nerves clinging to what remained of her horribly burned and scarred face. Her legs had third degree acid burns and they would have to be removed when someone found her. I had made sure she would never be able to let anyone know it was me. All I had to do now was take care of her eyes after making her see herself for the monster she was and then after that I would dump her off in the woods far from here before using her phone to call 911 which the cops would be able to trace and find her location. Of course I would be long gone by then planning things for my next target.

"Jessica," I smirked as I kind of sung her name and removed her blindfold. I was standing behind her with a mask covering my face so she would be unable to see me in the mirrors reflections. "I have finally finished with your transformation and it is time for you to see. Go ahead and open your eyes. I know you won't be able to tell me what you think of the new you considering you no longer have a tongue, but I think your eyes will tell me everything I want to know."

I watched with sickening glee as she opened her eyes slowly since the light was bright and she had been in the dark for the last few days. It didn't take her very to adjust to the lighting and when she saw what was left of her once beautiful face, a gargling sound came from her tongueless mouth. Tears started to stream down her cheeks and the salt in her tears burned painfully with every open wound they touched.

"What was that?" I asked as more noises came from her mouth. "I didn't quite catch that, and yet I think I know what you are trying to say and you don't have to thank me. It was my pleasure to do this for you. I call this work of art inside out because now you look on the outside as ugly as you are on the inside."

Her reaction gave me joy and I could hear the ghost of Alice inside my mind praising my work. 'Oh Jazz, you did an amazing job. This is the best work of art I have ever seen from you! How I wish I could kiss you right now to show you how much I love what you've done for me so far. You know what you must do next don't you? You need to finish up here with her before going home and planning your next move. Remember, you have to make sure you leave nothing behind that can be traced back to you or else the cops will catch you and you'll never get to finish what you have already started.'

I turned my attention back to Jessica as I rolled my shoulders. "As much as I would love to stare at my handiwork for hours on end, there are other things I must attend to which are more important. I must do one thing though before we leave."

Moving to a table a few feet away, I picked up an eyedropper I had filled with bleach earlier while Jessica was still unconscious from the latest round of torture. "I know you have been wondering who I am since I first abducted you and so I am going to let you see before I blind you. Now it is obvious you will not be able to tell anyone who did this to you, but just to ensure your silence I will tell you this; I will be watching you and if you find a way to let anyone know who did this to you, I will come back for you before I cops can even think of coming back for me and I will inflict torture so severe this will look like nothing more than children's play."

Moving around so I was now standing in front of her, I pulled off the ski mask and shot her a wicked grin. "I bet you didn't see that one coming did you? I'm not surprised you didn't connect the dots after what happened to Isabella Swan; you never were the brightest bulb around. Now Alice would have figured it out. She was smart and beautiful and funny, but you took her away from me. She was my world and you drove her to the edge of insanity. You took the most important thing in my life and so I took you beauty, the one thing you treasured above all else, from you. It's only fair if you ask me. You got off light because what you took from me, well even if I tortured you every single day for the rest of your miserable life, it would never measure up to what I lost. Still, I will always gain pleasure knowing every day you are going to be reminded of the monster you are. People will shy away from you, children will cry, old friends will cringe with disgust when they see you and you will know what Alice felt; how you made her feel about herself."

As soon as my little speech was finished, I grabbed her chin with one hand while using two fingers to pry her eyes wide open before letting a few drops fall from the eye dropper. Gurgled screams echoed off the walls until the pain became to much to deal with and she finally passed out. At least I would be able to clean things up without hearing her whimpers and attempts of begging for mercy the best she could without a tongue and lips.

As I started to clean up the mess and erase any trace that I had ever been here, I stepped on what I thought was glass from the crunching sound, but when I looked down I saw it was actually a picture in a broken frame of a husband and wife holding a newborn child. Crouching down I picked up the picture and ran the fingers of my right hand along the image as I was sucked in to a memory I wished I could forget, but knew would always be there no matter how hard I tried to keep it at bay.
