The Sacrifice (WillowVX & littlerooster)

Clarke tried to look natural or passive when he walked back in but she could tell something was up.

"Yeah, well you know, I was getting into that" he told her, which was also part of the truth, if she was going to stop sexual acts mid way through she had to get used to the guy looking a little pissed off.

"I'd say I need a cold shower but luckily it's already freezing!" he added laughing wondering how long it would take for his dad to get there.
 
Annie felt bad. She didn't mean to lead Clarke on.

"Clarke..." She started, looking awkward. "It's not that I didn't want to. I did. But..." She trailed off and looked down. Annie bit her lip and there were little tears in her eyes. "I'm sorry." She whispered.

Annie felt like something was different. She knew that Clarke was angry. Clarke was unstable when he was angry.

"I have to go to the bathroom, too." Annie added. "Do you mind?"
 
Clarke knew that Annie would try and escape if left alone, he knew she was suspicious.

"I thought I heard some wolves out there, I won't watch or anything it's not about that, but I will come out with you, just to keep watch" he told her, hoping his dad wasn't too far behind.

Push come to shove he would knock her out, this had gone on long enough, she would be sacrificed to the men in town.
 
Annie felt very uneasy. Clarke wasn't going to leave her alone. She suddenly got a very bad feeling. She needed to get away. He was acting too weird. Could she outrun him? She had to try.

"Sure." She replied. "No problem." Annie motioned to the canteen of water next to where they were sleeping. "I'm thirsty, can you hand me the water please?" She asked Clarke. He nodded and turned to bend down and pick it up. As soon as he turned his back and bent over, Annie booked it.

She ran as fast as she could through the woods, she weaved through trees and didn't stop for a second. He knew these woods far better than she did. She didn't know where she was going. She didn't know what she was going to do. But something didn't feel right with Clarke. And she had to trust her instincts. She suddenly missed Robbie more than anything. And she felt disgusted for herself for being with Clarke. Robbie almost died because of him.

She heard footsteps not too far behind. Only one set. Clarke was alone. At least that was a good sign. The were gaining up on her. She pushed her feet to go faster, she pushed her body harder and just kept running.
 
Clarke knew she would try and make a run for it, he was after her almost as soon as he bent over for the canteen. He chased her, only hesitating for a moment when he left the cave to work out which direction she went in.

He heard her though, she was loud through the woods, he left a marker for his dad to know which direction to head in when he arrived.

He set off after her again, he picked up a rock on his way through the woods, if need be he would knock her out, he had, had enough of this bitch and her drama.

He soon caught up to her, he could hear her panting and her footsteps not too far in the distance. He caught a glance of her and he took a chance, he threw the rock aiming at what he believed was her head.
 
The footsteps seemed to trail further behind, Annie noticed. She had a surge of hope. Maybe she was losing him. He tricked her. Again. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice... She felt so stupid. She thought he actually cared about her. Her thoughts were cut off quickly by the sharp blow to her head.

Annie fell forward onto her face. She hadn't been knocked out but it was enough to immobilize her. The pain was so great, searing through her skull. She reached her hand back and felt blood. She was dizzy. She couldn't believe Clarke would do that. She was still lying face down on the ground when she saw the footsteps next to her.

"Clarke.. Please..." Annie started as he bent down towards her.
 
He heard the thud as the rock hit her head, he didn't care anymore, he had put his reputation with his father on the line for her, he wanted her and she teased him, led him on and then left him hanging, only to then run away.

He bent down to her, and called his dad, giving him directions. His father wasn't too far behind, and got there shortly after.

Once again Annie was a captive, the Sheriff bandaged her head and they picked her up, carrying her back to the truck before transporting her to the hospital where she was treated and kept under close watch.
 
Annie felt so heart broken. Once again, she found herself not being able to look at Clarke. It was because she wouldn't have sex with him. It made him angry. No matter the consequence, she couldn't regret that decision. She would not do Robbie that way. Wait.. Robbie. They took her the hospital. Robbie was at the hospital. Suddenly she didn't feel so alone. If she could just see him, just hear his voice. She would feel better. As soon as it got late enough that most of the staff went home, and nobody would be watching, she would try to find Robbie.
 
A guard was posted outside of Annie's room, he was told that she should not go anywhere without him following her.

Clarke went home with his dad, he apologized for taking her side, his father was understanding and telling his son that this should be an important lesson in not being cunt struck.
 
It was late. Almost everybody had gone home. The sheriff ordered a guard to stay by Annie's door. She needed to get past him. She had a plan. She didn't know how great her plan was, but it was something. She nestled herself into bed for a good two hours, seemingly asleep. All the while, playing over the events that turned her life into a horror novel. When she heard the guard get up, she knew it was happening. He was going to use the bathroom. He believed her to be asleep. When she heard his footsteps far enough away, she acted quickly.

Annie stuffed pillows and blankets underneath the sheet. So juvenile, she thought with amusement. She just needed to sneak out and then sneak back in. She didn't have long. She tip toed in her hospital gown and found a directory on the wall. Nobody was around. She found the ICU. Just one floor above hers. Her head was pounding and her vision was blurry. Just get to Robbie, she told herself. Just get to him and then everything will be okay.

Inside of the ICU there were more people than on her floor. Sneaking around would be far more difficult. She tip toed from curtain to curtain, almost searching the whole floor, until she finally found him. And he was awake. He was staring up at a television screen. Just seeing him made Annie's eyes wet and put a smile on her face. God, she loved him. She swiftly stepped inside and made sure to pull the curtain all the way closed. Robbie's head snapped over to her. Shock was in his eyes. There was also something like... relief. Annie stood there looking at him, she didn't know what to say. She just ran to him and hugged him hard, crying into his shoulder.

"I'm sorry." She whispered, shaking her head. "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I couldn't let you die."
 
The guard returned to the room and peeped inside to see a lump under the blankets, he was content that it was Annie and left it at that, continuing his watch outside her room. He liked the way Annie looked and couldn't wait to have his turn with her during the festival.

Robbie was lying in his bed, half awake, half asleep, thinking about Annie and what she may be doing, if she managed to get away or not.

He was woken fully by a sound outside the curtain, it was Annie, she ran up and hugged him, he wrapped his hands around her.

"Wh, what happened to your head, are you ok babe?" he asked.

"what is going on?" he added confused.
 
Annie explained everything to Robbie. Every little detail. From the moment that he was shot up until sneaking out of her room. He tightened his arms angrily around her. There was something menacing in the air around him. Suddenly, she felt very afraid for Clarke.

"But it's going to happen." Annie cried, she tasted her tears. "They are going to sacrifice me." She buried her face into him. "Oh, Robbie, I don't know what to do. And I almost got you killed. I'm so sorry. I'm sorry about everything." The only thing in the world that mattered to her right now was being right there with him.
 
Robbie cried as she held him, she was at the end of her rope, as he was at the end of his, people who were meant to be friends had betrayed them and now they were trapped with no one to turn to and no where left to run.

"Every attempt to escape just gets us closer to being killed" he said to her, "I don't know what to do anymore sweetheart" he said just holding her tight.
 
Annie lifted her hand and wiped the tears off of Robbie's eyes. She never thought he could look so wounded. It hurt.

"You don't have to worry." She whispered and kissed his forehead. "I'm not going to run anymore." She sighed. She was tired. Being around Robbie only put him in danger. "You have to forget about me." She ran her fingers through his hair, brushing it away from his forehead. "You won't have to worry about me anymore." This was the hardest thing she's ever had to do. She looked at Robbie, gun shot wound in the chest, attached to IVs and machines. This was all because of her. The only regret she had, was that he did this to try and save her. She would be taken anyway. She cried.

"I am so sorry." She kissed him hard. "I know why you did this. But please understand, I couldn't let you die for me." She was all the way up on the bed, laying next to him. "I just couldn't."
 
Robbie wondered how he could forget about her, especially when she went to all this effort to be with him, to see him, to risk getting caught yet again.

"How, how can I forget you? Is that why you came to me, just so you could say goodbye?" he was angry and hurt, how could she leave him after everything.

"What are you going to do if you don't run? Let the whole town have you? Is that what you prefer?" he asked her, the heart monitor picking up on his anger by going a little crazy.

"Our mistake was we trusted too many people, kept getting sold out" he said to her.

"I won't allow them to gang rape you, it won't happen" tears were welling up in his eyes, tears of courage and determination. Tears of love for Annie.

"I love you, I won't allow you to get hurt" he said to her.

He thought about giving her an option to leave him, to just run away.

"We will get through this baby, together" he affirmed to her.
 
Annie looked at him. Pain and adoration in her eyes. He wouldn't abandon her. Even if it meant his own life. He's already proved that. But she didn't want him to do that.

She grabbed his hand and held onto it hard, both of their knuckles whitening. She kissed his hand and lowered her head to rest against his arm. Annie felt so guilty for even thinking of being with Clarke. This, right here, this is where she belonged. Clarke had almost fooled her.

"But how?" Annie looked up at him worriedly. "Every time I run, somebody just gets hurt. You can't move, Robbie. You almost died. Clarke was right about that part, you can't go anywhere. Not for a while." She searched his face, looking for answers. "And if I leave, they might punish you to draw me back." Annie shook her head. She didn't see a way out. They needed a miracle.
 
Robbie closed his eyes, well aware of how impossible it all was, if she stayed she would be gang raped by the townsmen, if she ran away she might die in the wilderness or be hunted down, they were totally screwed whichever way.

"I have no idea" he said quietly and in defeat. He held her hand tight as if that in itself would be enough to get through.

The guard burst in, "I thought you might be in here" he boomed, he dragged her way, back to her room.

He couldn't tell anyone about her escape, not without making himself look like a fool, he just put her back in her room and left her there, all the windows were locked shut, there was no escape.

He resumed his position outside her door.
 
Annie screamed as the guard picked her up by the waist and pulled her away. Robbie was yelling at the man to put her down, but he didn't listen.

"Robbie!" Annie screamed. "Robbie, no!" She threw out her arms and tried to reach him as she was dragged away.

"I won't let them take you, Annie!" She heard him yell as she was being carried down the hall. Annie was crying and kicking at the guard, pounding her fists into his back. He placed her back into her bed and went back to his position. Annie was furious. She didn't even get to say goodbye. If something happened, she would have never gotten to tell him how much she loved him. And how thankful she was for what he did. She may never see him again. With that thought - Annie cried herself to sleep.
 
The guard heard Annie cry herself to sleep and made sure he locked the door from the outside for any further toilet breaks.

In the morning her Uncle Ben was sitting by her bedside.

"Good morning Annie, you have created a lot of drama, just like your mother did, but like her, you will be sacrificed as well. It is for the good of the town" he told her.
 
Annie looked at her uncle coldly. She set her jaw and shook her head.

"How..." She stared. "How could you do that to her?" She was so angry. He had tied her wrists and ankles together before she woke up, to avoid further trouble. The question had been itching inside of her ever since Clarke brought it up. She stared at him with wide eyes.

"You did it, didn't you?" Annie breathed. "You made sure that I would come here." Her face was red and she pulled at her restraints. "You killed them, didn't you!?" She shouted at her uncle and tried to lunge for him.
 
Ben looked at her and laughed, "No child, I did not kill them, it was unfortunate but now that you are here you will be sacrificed to the town, the man who volunteers his own for sacrifice is compensated well, it is all about business Annie, they fuck you and I get paid" he smiled at her.
 
"How could you do this? To your own flesh and blood?" Annie felt so betrayed. He did it to her mother and now he was doing it to her.

"We'll stop you. You'll never get away with this. I will tell everybody what you guys are doing here. And you will all rot in prison!" Annie shouted and spit in her uncles face. She thrashed around some more and tried pointlessly to break free.
 
"Oh it's ok, you will probably be the last one anyway, it has become to difficult with the internet and all to hide these things, you will be the last and that will be fine. I will send in your Aunt soon, to talk to you about preparing for it all" he said to her and got up and walked out.

The guard looked in after he left and flicked his tongue looking at her, he wanted to fuck her more than ever.
 
Annie felt like she was going to be sick. This was really going to happen to her. All of her strength and will power started to drain away. She was tired. She was just tired.

"Aunt Cynthia, please don't let them do this to me..." Annie cried as her aunt walked in.
 
"Oh my poor child, it is ok, it isn't that bad" her Aunt said to her, obviously well indoctrinated into the politics and beliefs of the sacrifice festival.

"Now, now, they will just be a minute or two each and then after all the males 19 and over have their turn with you, it will be over" she said to her as if this was nothing more than her getting her first injection.

"Do you have any questions?" she asked.
