A year passed by, and Nicole's aunt left for a week on a business trip. Nicole was nervous being with her uncle because, throughout the year, he would give her lusty looks and try to get close to her. Nicole would use her aunt as a shield to protect her, but now that she was leaving. Nicole knew she wouldn't be safe at home.
The first two nights she snuck into the school to sleep. On the third night, the janitor found her and kicked her out of the school. Nicole tried to make her walk home as slow as possible, but she still made it home and the lights were on in the house. When she reached the front door, she could hear laughter inside the house.
She assumed that her uncle had guests so she would be safe for the night. She tried to get in the house and to her room as quietly as possible, but her uncle still noticed. He yelled at her about her being missing for two days and was rude for not introducing herself to his friends. Nicole nodded saying hello to his friends but noticed the look that her uncle's friends were giving. They had the same look like the one her uncle usually has on his face full of lust. Nicole tried to run out of the house, but the men caught her.
Two hours of her life that she would never get back. She wasn't broken when her parents died or even when her aunt would beat her and tell her that she was nothing. Those two hours broke her, she truly felt that she was nothing and there was no reason to live in this dark world again.
She doesn't remember when her uncle's friends left but she remembers when her aunt came home early finding both her and her uncle on the kitchen floor with him on top of her.
Her uncle didn't notice when her aunt grabbed a bat and started walking toward Nicole and him. He didn't notice when she swung the bat hitting him in the head. He screamed in so much pain falling off Nicole. Nicole just laid there on the floor watching her aunt beat and scream at him for falling into temptation. At first, his screams were loud then they slowly became quieter and he stopped resisting.
Nicole sat up and tried to move away from the two, but that was when her aunt remembered her. She looked at Nicole with such hate and Nicole could only look back at her with dead eyes praying inside that her aunt would kill her. She rushed toward Nicole screaming, dropping her bat, and slamming her fists into Nicole. It didn't take long for Nicole's face to become a bloody mess.
The last thing she could remember is her aunt's hands around her throat strangling her then lights out.
***
Back in the hospital, the sound of alarms going off in the room Nicole was in. Nicole sees and feels everything that the original Nicole had been through. She feels the pain and sadness that the girl lived through and all she could do was scream, cry and thrash around in the hospital bed. She hears the sound of hurried steps coming towards her and holding her down, but that just makes her scream louder and fight harder against the hands that tried to hold her down.
"WHY! Why did no one save her?! Save us! Why do I have to see these memories?! Why do I have to relive them through her memories? What did we do wrong?", Nicole thought with tears running down her face.
"Hold her down! I'm going to give her this to calm her down!", Someone next to Nicole says.
In the next moment, Nicole's body loses strength and she loses consciousness once more.
