Hope Dies Last

Chronicles of Being Taken

This couldn't be happening. "Stop, let me go!" I scream pounding my fists against the leather seats. "Daryl! Daryl!" I am slamming my fists on the window now. I watch as Daryl chases after me and he disappears in a cloud of dust. I turn around to protest with my taker and he says he doesn't want to hurt me but if I don't stop he won't have a choice. So I stop, letting my need for survival overpower my want for escaping.
"This place you're going to is safe, it's a sanctuary, you won't have to worry anymore about the horror out here. There's food, good food." He has a sadistic smile on his face. "Why did you kidnap me?" His smile falls slightly. "I didn't kidnap you, I saved you, you should be great full, you will have a good life now, by my side. I'm Gareth" Oh god, by his side? Daryl's face flashes in my mind. "He'll find me, he will stop you." He laughs. "You better hope he doesn't because I'll kill him in front of you." I stop and lay down in the backseat. Tears start to stream down my face.
I end up falling asleep I wake up to voices. "We're here darling, welcome to Terminus." It's still dark and burning lights set our path, I see we are at a railway place with flowers and honestly it doesn't look like a horrible place but good people don't go around kidnapping, or threatening people. I hobble along my ankle spiking with pain, he grasps my arm to help me along. There's a sign on the walls saying "Sanctuary for all, Those who arrive, survive." What is this place? Oh daddy help me please.
I am taken to his room. Or as he said "welcome to our room". It looks likes a bedroom, before all this happened. Weird thing is there is a bookcase with different odds and ends. I touch a necklace hanging off the book case its a silver unicorn.
"Why don't you lay down I'm sure you're tired." His twisted smile forming. I shake my head. "Oh come on now I know I'm better looking than that hillbilly you were with before." I tense as he approaches slowly. "Leave me alone...please." I beg him pleading with him not to. I try to fight him off but then he threatens me an I see Daryl's face. So i lay there as he has his way with me I imagine I'm with Daryl drinking moonshine and flipping off a burning house.
When he's done he kisses me an locks the door from the inside and lays down holding me. I lay there wishing to die. I think about killing myself again. Daryl was right there isn't any good people anymore or at least the good people are losing, just like I was.
For the first few days he doesn't permit me to leave the confides of his bedroom, he brings me food, and water, and books sometimes. I listen to hushed voices talking about this and that, honestly it didn't seem too different from the prison but sometimes, late at night when he'd sneak off I'd hear screams. Something sinister was happening and I figured out I probably wanted to be right where I was as his...girlfriend.
It's the third night and he is laying by me after violating me again playing with my hair. "You know Beth, I want to introduce you to the others, you will like them. I want to be able to trust you, With me, we can survive this world Beth, someone beautiful like you and me, we could have beautiful kids." I cringe a little.
I remember this one night, not long after the prison, at camp by the fire with Daryl he looked at me and said "People now Beth are different. A lot of them have fucked up plans, and sometimes you have to do certain things to survive. You have to be willing to do things you never would have. I'm just telling you this to keep you alive." This right now was what I had to do. I had to pretend that I wanted Gareth, that I could be trusted, and if I could do this right, I might just survive. Maybe I could get him to trust me enough I can escape, not now though, I'd have to make sure the timing was right.
So I move closer to him, placing my head on his chest, I look up at him. "I understand now why you took me, you did save me, I was half starved, weak, hurt, and wouldn't have lasted much longer out there. And you're right, as a woman I have the responsibility to re-populate the earth, and as far as you trusting me, I can show you and we can make everything work." He smiles down at me. "Now this is good, I'm glad you can see the good here Beth, we help people, When I found you, I knew I had to help you, and when I looked in your eyes I knew you were meant for me. And I knew you felt it too and would come around. Tomorrow we will introduce you and I'll show you what we all need from you to keep this place going." He kisses me and blows out the candle. "Goodnight dear." As a tear slides down my cheek I reply quietly.
"Goodnight."
Every night I dreamed of Daryl and every morning I'd pray he would forgive me and would wisk in and save but after that first week my hope in him was fading.
