Leaving Here, Not Coming Back

"The book I had the short guy get."

Brian realized that she still didn't know their names.

He licked his lips nervously. "Can I read it?"

Marina wasn't sure how much she trusted the man she now knew as Brian, she figured he and his friends did save her so...

"Okay, I guess. But beware."

He nodded and changed the subject." So, I'm Brian. The buff one with a buzz cut is Matt, the short one is Johnny, snake bites is Zack."

She nodded.

"I...just want you to know that you're safe with us. We will nevertreat you how he did."

"I believe you."

Brian nodded, just as his cell phone went off playing Pantera's Walk.

He flipped it open and read: Text from Matt

He opened it and read the text, telling him to meet him and Zack outside her room.

"I'll be right back."

She nodded and watched him stand then exit the room.

Marina grabbed the television remote and turned it on,  channel flipping before settling on Cartoonetwork's The Amazing World Of Gumball.

In the hallway, Brian was watching Zack, Matt and Johnny too come down the hall.

"Whats up guys?" he asked, looking at all of them as they stopped in front of him.

He noticed how their emotions differed: Matt looked pissed beond belief,  Zack looked like he was in shock and Johnny looked solemn.

" It's about Marina." Zack spoke first.

This got Brian's attention.  He cocked is head in interest

"When we spoke to the doctor, she said that Marina may..." Matt was unable to go on.

"Don't fucking say it like its not real! Brian she may have been raped." Johnny exploded 

Brian's mouth dropped, then clenched in blistering fury. Her own father defiled his daughter!  

Brian  shook with rage as he clenched his fists.

"MAY have! We don't know for sure!"  Zack spurted

"I'm gonna find out."  Brian growled before he slammed open Marina's door ignoring her cry of shock and flinch  as he stomped over.

"Did that bastard rape you!?"

Marina held her tears back and bit her lip, then nodded." 

Brian wanted to kill this  man with every fiber of his being.

He stomped out of the room.

Marina let her hot tears slip down her cheeks
