She knew this closet like the back of her hand.

There were three trenchcoats hung above her head, a hole in the back wall where he'd swung at her and missed.... and scrapes in the back of the door where she'd made her hands bloody trying to get out. She hated this place. It was so dark, she couldn't see her fingers in front of her face. Darren, her friend, didn't believe her when she said her father put her here. Maybe if she screamed loud enough, he'd hear her and come....

But, no.

If she screamed, her father would think she was scared, and he would come taunt her with food. Ahh, food. She hadn't eaten in three days; it was so long ago she wasn't even hungry anymore. It was so long ago, Adrienne couldn't even remember why he'd put her in here. Something about.... a drink?

Yes, a drink.

He'd wanted another bottle of vodka, and when she said no in front of his friends, he'd become furious. She tried... ohh, she tried so hard to outrun him and make it out the door, but he caught her and now she had a nice black ring on her arm from the bruising. He'd dragged her up to the spare bedroom, locking her in the closet, the terrible, horrid closet. He'd wanted her to cry, to scream and beg him not to... but she didn't, and she was proud of herself. Although now, it was a different story. Adrienne wasn't crying, but she shook. Violently.

She was shaking so hard she didn't hear the footsteps until they were almost outside the door, and she hadn't had time to prepare herself for the bright light that flooded the dark of her prison. Adrienne shut her eyes tightly, and thus she couldn't see, couldn't dodge the hand that struck her face, knocking her into the side wall of the closet....


========================

Adrienne woke, screaming into her pillow with Lynx crooning into her ear. Gods. She hadn't had that dream in so long, she'd thought they were over with. Warily she sat up looked around, hoping her cries had been muffled by the pillow. Please, don't let Mik or Cally have heard her screams...

Maybe they didn't.

After all, she was sleeping in the other room, on the couch she'd resigned to so Cally could have her bed. She was slightly glad, for once, that she'd made the move... maybe, with her so far away, her nightmare wouldn't have disturbed the others. About three years ago, when she'd last had that nightmare, Mikhael had woken up and held her for the rest of the night, trying valiantly to keep her from shaking.

Was she shaking now?

Looking down, she noted that yes, she was trembling. Gods. Why did that dream affect her so much? She'd left Earth almost ten years ago...

Sitting on the couch, Adrienne pulled her knees up to her chest and wrapped her arms around them, burying her face between her knees, hoping the shaking would stop sooner than later...

Lynx, terrified for His, buried himself under her wild hair, pressing his cool hide against her sweating neck. She hadn't been like this is so long, and the bronze was unsure how to help her.

Cally
Cally had woken in the middle of night. She was thirsty and so she had gotten up to get a glass of water. She walked barefoot to where the little pitcher of water was and poured herself a glass. She was being quiet so that she wouldn't wake anyone up. After she drank her fill, she put the glass down and went back to bed. It was dark and no sooner than she had settled herself to go back to sleep that she heard that woman screaming.

Cally scowled as she pushed the blankets away from her and made her way to the other room where the couch was. Cally had been rather smug and glad of the fact that she got the bed while that Adrienne woman slept on the couch. Still, that scream was something else. If Cally was a betting person, she'd bed that Adrienne... well Addy, as she had heard her father call the woman once, had just had a very bad dream.

Cally remembered having those once after she read a particularly scary story. Henceforth, she stayed away from those. She had an active imagination enough, she didn't need to add the scary ones. When she was at the other room, she saw Addy was sitting on the couch with her knees pulled up to her chest and her arms wrapped around them.

Hunter disturbed by the scream opened his eyes to find that his mistress was gone from her bed. It didn't take long for him to know where Cally was and in a second, Hunter popped into existence right beside Cally and crooned at her wanting to know why she wasn't in bed.

Unconsciously, Cally gave Hunter a caress on his head as he perched on her right shoulder. She silently approached Addy on the couch, when she was close, she whispered, "Are you alright?" as she stood beside the couch. Despite not really liking the woman, Cally wasn't that heartless of a person that she would make fun of someone for having bad dreams.
