“You will submit,” he said, tracing a line of agony along her back. Burn marks covered most of her back, the price she helped pay to get rid of the largest batch of the captain’s contaminated food. “You were lucky I found you before the warehouse collapsed -or maybe not so lucky, from your point of view. This is your chance to become truly improved, to join us in leading the people into the future.”
She tried to kick him, eyes bright with adrenaline and pain. Sean was MIA, had been even before she managed to set the warehouse on fire. She had climbed up to a window, holding herself against the ledge to try and push out the glass. The smoke threatened to suffocate her first, but she needed to at least try and get back to threshold. Darkness had been curling around her mind in the midst of an inferno when strong arms broke through the glass on the other side, pulling her out faster than the flash-fire could move.
It was only after that she realized it was the captain.
“You destroyed my last batch of improved produce. You destroyed my data, captured my scientists, restricted my access to the bank, kept me from Him.” He snarled, turning her over and ripping off her pants and underwear. It was cold outside, and the grass below her was hardly comfortable, being littered with pebbles. She tried to persuade him to let her go, but the gag turned her words into gibberish and he was so much stronger than she was. Pinned and helpless, she could only stare at her captor with horrified eyes. “You stopped most of my plans for improvement, but that will be reversed in a moment. You humans are still vulnerable to the simplest form of improvement, and I am in no mood for your tricks. If you try to do anything, I will hurt you.”
He lowered his pants, and she was disgusted to see that he was already hard. His fingernails dug into her shoulders as he lowered himself to her, eyes paralyzing her for those few precious moments. She could feel him against the her opening, feel the oncoming thrust that would break through her clenched muscles and send a wave of pain up her spine.
Then there was a flash of metal and someone tackled the captain, sending them both to the ground beside her. She quickly got to her feet, the sudden rush of blood to her head making her feel nauseas but she forced herself to stay upright. Sean was screaming, a wordless, primal scream of indignation and rage.
Lightning burst free from the captain’s shoulder, multiple strands crawling across his body until he collapsed.
The adrenaline kept her on her feet long enough to smell Sean as he held her close, and that was enough.
