Early America

Isa

They force us to seperated, me struggling.

Will

I swallow and keep eye contact with Isabel, reaching towards her.

Isa

They force me to turn around and I glance back, them tying my mouth with cloth.

Will

I shake my head and am forced to my knees, a cloth being stuffed in my mouth as well.

Isa

They chain me against the wall with others and I look around for my parents, not finding them.

Will

I'm chained on the opposite side, not sure what's going on.

Isa

I make eye contact with him again, my eyes watering.

Will

My eyes water as well, the fear finally hitting me.

Isa

I look away, glancing around.

Will

I do the same, wondering what they're up to.

Isa

A man crouches before me, taking out the cloth from my mouth, "Where's your brother?"

Luke?

I swallow, not responding.

Will

I watch them, terrified for her.

Isa

He slaps me and I gasp, keeping my mouth shut still.

"Where is he?" He asks again, his voice harder.

Will

I struggle against my chains, wanting to stop them from doing that to her.

Isa

I still don't say anything, them cornering me, "Tell me now."

I shake my head and they twist my wrist, 'causing me to scream a little, "What about now?"

I shake my head again, swallowing, and they moan, "Do we seriously have to keep on going?"
