Aery all-out freaked. Rowan and Alek and Aiden all standing over her at once, none of them killing each other. Chattering with each other quietly. And her uncle... Not a welcome sight. But he looked down at her, oddly calm, even proudly. Though that might have been because of how broken-looking (not to mention feeling) she was.
Silly, seeing her bloody body, was confused. And then the confusion melted away as she saw Tazz sprinting for her. She tackled him, smacking her nose against his collarbone and giving herself a nosebleed. Oh well. She wept and clung to him, saying his name over and over again. She'd never leave him, never again.
And as far as Ame, well, her rendezvous with her past wasn't so pleasant. Two, three boys stood over her. One knelt, straddling her in a most indecent manner. She fought, but she was still weighed down by the chains. "We've waited for this chance a long time, Amethystia. We're not giving up on you so easily. And now you're big enough that we can have our way with you without killing you. It'll be fun for you, sooner or later, you'll see."
And then one of the boys, wrapping his arms around her, teleported them to a place that she didn't even know where they were. She wished that anyone, anyone at all, had her, even that scary witch Dahlia, rather than these three boys who'd tormented her for the first two years of her life.
