"Let me go!" Sienna screamed, banging against the bars of her cell

"Let me go!" Sienna screamed, banging against the bars of her cell. "You asshole. I'm not some animal you can just lock in a cage."

Siennas body was weak and she finally gave into her tiredness and fell asleep. The next time the warlock awoke was to the sound of Jace's screams. When she opened her eyes she saw the familiar blonde being hung by chains as he got beaten. "Stop!" she shouted, watching as the man's fist collided into Jace's stomach.

"She's right, that enough for today." Valentine appeared from the shadows. "It's her turn."

A guard unlocked Sienna cell but she was too quick and grabbed hold of the man and pulled him down, bringing her knee up to his face and nocking him unconscious. Sienna grabbed hold of her cell bars, using them to swing her self into the next guard that tried to contain her. Sienna killed each of the members one by one before she was surrounded by nothing but bodies.

"I'm impressed. Even without your powers you're strong. I guess that has something to do with your father's training." Valentine spoke up.

"That man is not my father and he never will be." Sienna spat out as she pushed her damp hair from out her face. "I just killed all of them, I think you're next." Sienna lunged at the bald man but four guards appeared from seemingly nowhere and grabbed a hold of her, stoping her movements.

"I admire your courage but I destroyed you once, I can do it again."

"Newsflash, I'm not a helpless four year old this time. And last time it didn't take four guards to hold me back from killing you." Sienna yelled through gritted teeth. "I'm still standing, you never broke me."

Valentine sent one of the guards a signal. The circle members attached Sienna to the chains where Jace previously was.

"You're still the monster that your own father fears. He'll never love you. You're just an unlovable warlock with dirty blood running through your veins."

"Just wait until this is a fair fight, then you can truly see the monster that I am." Sienna threatened. "I don't need my father's love, I never have, I never will."

"We'll see about that." Valentine laughed bitterly as he left the room.

The guards began taking their turns in torturing Sienna. The first guard swung his fist into her ribs beating her as the bones audibly shattered. Sienna smiled through her pain, not giving them the satisfaction of reacting. But as the torture went on it became harder and harder to suppress her screams of pain.

"Is that the best you can do? You kick like a nine year old girl." Sienna laughed, spitting out blood from her mouth.

"Just you wait, princess." One of the men smirked as he picked up a steal blade. Hundreds of memories flooded the red heads minds as she remembered all too well how this would end. She still had the scars to prove it, not matter what she tried she couldn't get rid of them. Valentine had somehow enchanted the weapon so that the scars will always be painted over her body as a reminder.

"Recognise this?" He laughed seeing her face drop.

"Nothing I haven't handled before."

The circle-member plunged the cold steel blade into her stomach, dragging it down to inflict as much pain as possible. A hiss slipped from between Sienna pale plump lips as tears streamed down her face. The pain was becoming too much and she eventually passed out.

~~~~~~~~~

Sienna woke up to water being thrown over her completely battered and exhausted body.

"Yours is the last face I want to see when I wake up."

"I see you're still using sarcasm to cover up your feelings." Valentine smirked.

"What do you want from me this time? Last time was becasue Jocelyn took away your precious Cup so you punished me for my families mistakes. What is it now?" Sienna demanded.

"You're a threat to me and my plans." Valentine admitted. "I can't have you running free but I also don't want you dead." He threw in some medical supplies into the cell before leaving her once again.

Sienna slowly slid across the floor, blood oozing out from the deep gash across her stomach. Sienna took a swig of the vodka before using some of it to disinfect the wound. The ginger woman let out a piercing scream as the liquid touched her. Her shaky hands grabbed hold of the gauze and bandages, tightly wrapping it around her abdomen to stop her from bleeding out. Sienna shuffled back to lean against the wall, leaving a trail of smeared blood behind. The warlock looked down at her now torn and bloody outfit.

"You set me up to kill the vampire!" Sienna heard Jace shout at Valentine as they portaled back onto the boat.

"You killed her because it was the right thing to do. The world's a safer place without that thing wreaking havoc." Valentine grunted in pain as he pulled a sword out from his shoulder. "Would you rather turn her over to the Clave to stand trial?"

"That is my job!" Jace argued. "The law is hard, buts it is the law."

"Yet the Clave does nothing, nothing to enforce that. Downworlders multiply with a bite or a scratch, while our numbers dwindle year after year." Valentine said as he activated his Iratze. "If we don't do something a den like that one is going to be in every corner on every street in the world. This is the only way."

"You're wrong." Jace disagreed as he walked away.

"Like I was wrong about your mother?" Valentine said making Jace stop in his tracks. "I know you even better than you know yourself."

"Don't listen to him, Jace." Sienna tried to shout but it came out hoarse from screeching her throat dry.

"You don't know me at all."

"You saved my life. You could've portaled me anywhere, handed me over to the Clave in Idris, but did you?" Val asked rhetorically. "No, because deep down inside... you know that i'm right."
