To Break My Heart

Chapter Eighteen

The man slaps me across the face. I flinch but don't show weakness.

"Trying to be a tough girl," he comments, "but let's see how tough you really are." He unties me.

"If you beat me," he explains, "I won't hurt you or Aster any more." He grins.

"And if I don't win?" I ask him.

"You don't want to know what will happen," he announces.

I agree to fight with him and he quickly unties me.

"On your mark... get set... Go!"

He charges at me, and takes me to the ground. I try to punch him, but he doges every move I make.

"Your going down, pretty girl," he exclaims. He punches me in the face and I go down.

My vision becomes blurry and I can hear the man laughing.

"Looks like you lost," the man says.

Everything becomes fuzzy,
The world...
Fading...
Away...
