Fight

Not again. Please... Leave me alone...

His fingers are pushing that pill down my throat. I gag and vomit drips from I lips. I bite down hard on his hand; squeezing my teeth into his knuckles, drawing blood, hitting bone. A burst of anger shoots through the room like a bullet-- a bullet headed straight for the precious spot between my eyes.

“You little f****r!” He shouts and attempts to rip his hand from my mouth. My jaw is locked, my teeth clamped and frozen. Only inches does his convulsing fingers move from my mouth. His other hand comes down upon my cheek, blackening my world. I am suddenly that fire restrained behind an ashen front door.

My jaw goes slack and crimson metal fills my mouth. Another fist launches itself into my cheek. I whimper pathetically and spit that twisted pill from my lips at him. A lion snarls down at me, his teeth bared and eyes raging-- hungry for my skin.

Abruptly, he stops and rolls off me. The bed dips, rises and settles.

No more...

Immediately I curl in on myself, trying desperately to hide the emotion pouring from my chest from him. My body is the surface of a new planet: a river flows along the creases of my eyes like they belong there in the ditches of my pain, and lava trickles from my nose as if it has waited for an eternity to release its heat.

“You're gonna get it, my love.”

Mother...

Quiet. The silence burrows into my brain; pokes at my racing heart, but I dare not move.

I can smell him. The bed dips, shifts, squeaks. I can feel him; his poisonous fingers eating my flesh like maggots. His hands devour me, slide beneath my only protection: my clothes.

Let me, c'mon let me! Let me kill this f****r! Fight growls at me, her fangs sharpened for battle.

Why? He will destroy me, Fight. He will destroy...

I won't let him! Let me!

I'm sorry.

But Fights eyes are burning coals turning to embers; glowing wickedly. She grinds her teeth and paces the empty space in my head, frustrated.

I cannot...

His hands have followed their usual path. Without my knowledge, everything is gone. He's so tender, his touch so warm and careful. My stomach churns. I close my eyes and relax, just relax. What else can I do? Fights screams bounce off the walls of my mind. The covers shift under my body and he crawls beneath, pulling them far over his head. Kisses linger like mosquitoes on a hot, sticky afternoon.

Let me! She screams. Shriek joins--their voices unite in a murderous lullaby. Fight lunges toward me, her claws outstretched. She tackles me to the ground and butchers her way into my chest. Her fingers wrap around my heart, and suddenly, I am gone, and she is alive.

[De-personalize Yourself]

I've noticed that, as it progresses, the story is losing some of it's more surreal aspects and the character is being faced with more and more of the brutality of reality. It's very gradual, but it's definitely happening.
Again, love the unusual personification of 'fight' in this chapter.
Absolutely amazing work. x

If I were this guy, I would be scared as HELL.

Shriek was in the last chapter, so she is loud, and joining in with Fight? Oh man, that's a deadly mix.

Fight is a thing now! Yay!
