Hope

by A Williams

I pull him towards me by the collar of his shirt. Looking him dead in his eyes I say through gritted teeth, "what is my name?" He only chuckles spitting blood out in the process; he gets closer to my face until our noses are almost touching. "Hope" is all he says before going limp. He took everything from her. He took her life, her family, and even her hope. The thing is she can't even remember her name let alone her past life. However, she has two things going for her. The first being, 'Lilith Blanche' a name she carved into the wall when she first got trapped. The second being time. She has kept track of the number of days she's been there. Time was one of the few things she thought she had. What happens when she realizes she's running out of it?
