Snake had been in charge of training Sara and that was how she grew closer to him.

At first, he had been a bit tough on her, telling her to succeed if she wanted to escape from them. But later, he began to feel bad for her.

She always cried because she missed her family dearly. She had never stayed away from her father for that long and she could not get used to it. Even though she had not really liked school, she began to miss school and envy kids who lived a normal life instead of being locked up like a prisoner just like her. She was stuck with these robbers and had no idea when she would die.

One day, Jaz was taken into Fuji's room.

It seemed Sara's behaviours motivated her and so, she wanted to be like Sara. When Fuji tried to touch her just like he had done before, she decline for the very first time.

Sara had always known that Jaz was one of his 'forced' women.

She had heard and seen several other women been taken to Fuji's chambers and whenever they were sent there, Fuji always made sure she was standing by his door so she could hear how much they screamed and cried. He always did that to remind her that if she did not train properly, he was going to make sure she stayed there till she turned twenty and experience whatever went on inside the room.

On that particular day Jaz was taken to his room, Sara heard how she refused to comply and Fuji had gotten angry. After hitting her a couple of times, he asked her to be locked up.

Sara had been scared for her and had sneaked to go see her at night. When she met the miserable looking Jaz, she assured her she was going to look for a way to save her so they could both run away together some day.

And as she was making plans for that, she was summoned the next night by Fuji.

She saw the members of Black form a circle and when they saw her approach, they created space for her to move to the centre.

She looked at all of them in confusion before walking slowly to the centre. She saw a rolled mat and knew it was a person because it seemed the person was struggling to be free.

She felt a hand on her shoulder and flinched in fright.

When she turned, she saw Fuji standing there with a glass of wine in one hand and a club in another.

He looked straight into her eyes and twirled the glass of wine.

Sara did not know what happened to her but she suddenly gave him her full attention. He pointed to the mat on the ground and began to speak.

"That's him. He forced himself on you. He tried to take you. People like him should not live in this world"

He continued to say other things that reminded her of that dreaded night. She did not know how he had found out about that night. And she did not bother to ask him because her kind was preoccupied.

It was as if he was painting the picture of that night to her again and soon, she began to shout and cry for the voices to go away.

"Kill him" He handed the club to her and pointed at the mat.

"Use this. Get rid of him. The memories would go away. The pain would go away" He assured her in a soft tone.

Her hands shook as she took the club from his hand. And as he continued to fire her up, she began to use the club violently on the person while screaming for the voices to go away.

"Let me be. Let me be free!" She creamed over and over again with her two hands holding the club as she kept on using it on the 'man'.

She noticed the person stopped moving and Fuji began to laugh.

He signalled for two men to unroll the mat and when they were done, she saw Jaz covered in blood with her hands and feet tied while her lips were sealed with a tape.

For like a minute, Sara tried to register what she had done as she stood there with wide eyes and agape mouth.

"Don't think about running away my dear. You may end up just like her"

At that point, her body began to shake violently. She looked at the club in her hand and the dead Jaz.

She dropped the club and fell to the ground. The shock was too much for her to recover from in a few minutes.

She had killed a person again!

Someone she had offered hope.

Someone who had been taken her as her sister.

She had killed her.

She continued to stare blankly. She could not cry nor scream. All she could do was stare blankly.

Even after the crowd dispersed, and her corpse were gotten rid of, she continued to sit there and gasp for breath.

The only thought on her mind was to kill Fuji.

Muchen could feel her body trembling again and held her even tighter this time.

His eyes were closed. Not because he did not want to look at her, but because he did not want her to see the desire in his eyes to kill the so called Fuji.

God had done him a great favour by keeping him alive because he was going to end his life himself.

"I wanted to kill him so badly" Her eyes continued to blink rapidly and tears continued to flow as she kept talking.

"He got rid of everyone close to me. I think he was obsessed or something."

A guy had made a pass at her and he had crusified him in front of everyone including herself.

She was scared for Snake's life, so she had told him to not get close to her unless they were training.

She did not wait for the day Fuji organised for her to fight with those people. On that same night after Jaz died, she had taken the club inside to go kill Fuji.

Anyone who tried to stop her, the club was used on them. She did not know where the strength suddenly came from because she had fought like a madwoman and the entire time, Fuji looked at her with admiration.

She had almost used the club to hit him but the one who threw a punch at her was Snake.

He quickly disarmed her and made her kneel in front of Fuji.

As Fuji smiled at her, she smirked and took out a small dagger from her pocket.

"If killing myself would make you happy, then I'll slit my own throat." She placed the dagger on her neck and made a show of killing herself since she knew very well that he would not allow her do so.

She also knew she could not kill Fuji. She could not also blame Snake for stopping her. He was a Black after all. Was he supposed to be loyal to her?

"I'll let you go." Fuji relented with a frown.

Sara could not explain the inexplicably joy she felt when she heard that. She was finally going to see her father and Aunt.

Finally!

"Promise me. Swear with your life" She demanded.

He swore in front of everyone and she finally cried in relief.

But that same night, he had come into her room and tried to rape her.

The first time he had tried such and she had slapped him, no one knew about it. They had only thought she was being stubborn and also thought Fuji saw her as his daughter.

This second time, he had made sure she stayed in a private room with the guise of making her last night there worthwhile. But he actually had other plans he wanted to do in secret.

Although he was the boss, it would be bad for his name if people knew he worded an amateur.

He had tried to force his way on her but she was smarter and sharper now.

She was no longer the little Sara who begged and cried for them to leave her alone.

She had carefully kept the dagger beside her earlier and did not hesitate to stab his shoulder.

She took nothing with her when she escaped. Since Fuji had swore to let her go in front of everyone, no one actually stopped her from leaving that night. Thankfully, she did not have their tattoo. It would have been difficult to ever leave there.

Fuji did not also raise alarm because it would be embarrassing if they knew he had tried to take her after promising to let her off and she had stabbed him in return.

When Sara ran very far from the base and saw the world for the first time in one year, she broke down in tears.

For close to a month, she had slept on the street and begged for money and food everyday. Sometimes, she even stole.

She knew no one in Country Y and even her father's number never went through.

She thought about going to the police but whenever she thought about the police, she always cried because it reminded her that she was a criminal. That stopped her from going to them.

She also did not know her aunt's number since she was never in one location.

Everything frustrated her to the point where she had to steal from people.

After saving for more than a month, she was finally able to go back home by boat since she did not have any documents to purchase a flight with.

And once she saw her father and Aunt, all she could do was cry.

Till today, she did not tell them anything that happened to her then. All she saw and experienced, she refused to say any.

Thank goodness there were no scars on her body.

But now, she was telling this to Muchen. She had expected him to avoid her because she had a dirty past.

But he embraced her tightly and cried with her when she was done narrating.

"You survived it all. I am proud of you" He whispered to her.

It was not what she had expected from him. She could do nothing but cry in his arms.
