200 Reasons To Live

#26 The Conquering

I woke up to my phone vibrating under my pillow. Groggily I quietly got out of the bunk and walked to the living room. I answered the call without looking at the caller id.

"Hello?" I moaned.

"Hello Ms. Smith?" The voice on the other end asked.

"Yes may I ask who is calling and what about?" I replied.

"This is Mr. Adams from the Federal Bureau of Investigations. I have been tipped off about a recording on a social media site, about your past. In part of it your friend said you were a sex slave essentially?" He asked.

"Yes." I responded.

"Was it a true story, or were you trying to become popular on the social media site?" He sounded like a robot.

"Yes, and there was a whole lot of other things that happened, really bad things that my friends don't know about." I sighed.

"I need to speak with you immediately, where is your location?" He asked.

"Nashville, Tennessee." I told him.

"Great. I will meet you there in four hours." He hung up.

"Vic!" I yelled. This was going to be fun to explain.


"Don't be nervous, hey, you've told your story before." He smiled, trying to point out the positives.

"Not like this." I argued back. I sighed and Vic got out of the parked car, and went around to the other side and opened the door for me.

"Just know that you are solving your Holly problem by doing this." He was really pushing this positivity thing.

"Yeah I guess." I got out of the car and I slowly walked into the building. Inside, people where dashing around everywhere, it was an organized madhouse of the law. We found the front desk and I shyly walked over to it, not speaking.

"What do you need?" The lady asked with a southern drawl.

"She's Skylar Smith, here by appointment." Vic said rather loudly. I saw all the madness of the place pause, and everyone turned to the front desk. I blushed, and hid behind Vic.

"He's right down the hall sugar." Her southern drawl was kind of annoying. Vic led me down the hall, to the door at the end. He knocked on the door, and not even two seconds later, the door flew open.

"Skylar, glad to see you are here. Who's this gentleman with you?" He asked.

"I'm her boyfriend." He smiled at him and held out his hand. "Vic Fuentes of Pierce the Veil." Mr. Adams shook his hand back.

"Alex Adams of the FBI. You are going to have to wait outside Mr. Fuentes, if you want to leave, she will be a few hours." He told Vic.

"No I'm staying here, until I have a show, I'll have Oli and Jack come, so that when you are released you will have someone. Okay?" He asked.

"Yes, Vic go make your fans happy for me." I kissed his cheek and walked inside of the room with Mr. Adams.

"Please take a seat." He gestured to a seat at a table closest to the door. He walked around the table and took the seat there. "So please tell me your story starting from birth."

"Well I was born to a loving mother and caring father. I had a pretty normal life until my mom died when I was 15. My dad started to spiral downwards, drinking, sleeping with prositutes One day I came home, and as usual, he has nowhere to be found. He was gone for three days. When he returned he had a girl with him, who was four years older than me. Holly Spillane." He held up his hand.

"Is that the same one who posted the video of you on twitter?" He asked.

"Same one, she wanted to separate me and Vic." I explained. He nodded his head.

"Okay continue." He told me.

"Well anyways things seemed to go back to being how they were before my mom died. He wouldn't drink, and Holly, who was no replacement for my mother, still tried. I still went to my cotillion classes, and school. August 3, was the day everything changed. It was two days after I turned 16, when Holly and my dad came to me when I was doing homework on my bed. They said that my dance lessons were putting an economical stress on the family, and I needed to get a job. They said that they lined one up for me, through one of Holly's old friends, so I wouldn't be wasting time finding a job. They made me agree to the job, saying it was quick cash. They then took me to a club. I was very confused at first, because it looked like an abandoned warehouse. The deeper we got in the building, I discovered it was a sex club, complete with strippers. My dad told me if I ever told anyone I was doing this that everyone would hate me. I was 16 then, I believed my dad, I had never been led to believe anything else. So they got me in stripper clothes and had me pole dance. I had no idea what I was doing, and it was evident in my tips. I only got twenty dollars, and that's because Holly said that the guy could touch a naked me for ten minutes in the bathroom, whoever he wanted to, he just couldn't have sex with me. So then they got me pole dancing lessons from the other pole dancers. I felt something was off, but I went with it. Anyways after about two weeks I was a pro and bringing in a lot of money. They trusted me to get myself there and back. A year later, my boss offered me four hundred dollars, under the table, for him to have anal sex with him. He said that Holly wouldn't know about it. So naturally I took it, and this happened the next four days. Now I had $1600 dollars." Yet again he held up his hand.

"What does under the table mean?" He asked.

"He was going to give me the money without Holly or my dad knowing." I replied.

"Continue." He nodded.

"After those four days I knew what I was doing was wrong, but I needed the money. Holly and my dad stopped letting me eat very much food. They said I was too fat. So the money would buy me food so I could eat, because I was only allowed 400 calories a day. Anyways after those four days I was in class when I was called to the office. Holly had been pulling me out. In the car she told me that she had hit the lottery with this one, my virginity. A man had offered $500 dollars to take it. So Holly accepted it, and told him I would be over there soon. When I got there, there where multiple men. The man took my virginity and about 6 other men where there, and all got their turn with me. Overall I believe Holly made $500 per guy, so as you can imagine, she was now buying fancy cars and shit. She kept pulling me out of school to sleep around for money. Finally school let out. I brought in a lot that summer for them, but I kept doing my under the table deal with my boss. July 4th, Holly told me that I wouldn't be going back to school. After that day, all the days were a blur, we traveled everywhere, where ever they thought good business would be. One day while I was sneaking out for the first time I bumped into a man named Lawrence. I fell hard for him, and he for me. He would pay Holly for sessions at his apartment, and we would watch movies, and cuddle. He would pay a lot of money just for a date. We would always talk about making an escape, until one day we tried to. I was in Vegas then, and Holly had rented out a giant hours. When were were escaping, we turned the corner and Holly was standing there holding a gun, standing ready to shoot it. She smirked at me, and I turned back the hall we emerged from, and I got away quick enough. Lawrence though, he didn't. She shot him straight in the head. I didn't even get to say goodbye to him. After that I lost all hope. Soon it wasn't just me. They had kidnapped a girl my age, Grace, and took her hostage. She was forced to do the same jobs as I was forced to do. One day she tried to run away, and Holly turned that into an example. My dad tied Grace down as she pleaded with them not to kill her. My dad, who was clearly turned on at that point decided to rape her. He ripped her pants and panties off. I will never forget that. After he was done, he spat on her and kicked her several times. Holly started yelling at me about what would happen if I tried to run away. Holly shot Grace several times, and let Grace bleed to death. I had to watch helplessly as she tried to hold onto life. After all I had seen I wanted to die. I mean really badly. I started cutting and burning my skin-" He cut me off.

"Can I document your scars." He asked, standing up.

"Yeah sure, but I don't know how that would be of help to you guys." I lifted off Vic's sweatshirt, and crossed my arms over my chest. I felt so exposed in my bra. He seemed to make a camera appear from nowhere because, he had gotten one by the time Vic's sweatshirt was off of my body.

"Stand up against the wall." He commanded. I did as he said, while he took photos. "Okay and turn." I turned sideways, exposing more marks. "I am done, please put you sweatshirt back on and sit down." He walked over to his seat and waited as I put Vic's sweatshirt on. I sat down at my seat.

"Continue." He told me.

"Anyways, I got smart. Holly noticed I was suicidal, and she knew that holding a gun to my head would do nothing. I would steal a little bit of the profits. I snuck out during that time to homeless shelters for food, they were feeding me almost nothing now, maybe 100 calories a day. I kept saving. I got enough money to get out, and booked a flight from New York to California. On the plane, I borrowed a laptop from someone next to me, and got tickets to Warped Tour. I wanted to go there before I died. I got to Los Angles and bought some clothes, not much, just enough to get by for a little bit. I guess I wanted to experience some real life before I killed myself, my date was May 1st. Anyways I bought a lot of Hot Topic band tshirts. I went to Warped the next day after staying the night in a motel. I met Vic there at the Pierce the Veil meet and greet. He took me under his wing and took me along with them on tour. He made a deal with me about my suicide. He's trying to give me a reason, each day why I should stay alive. On May 1st, I get to chose after he gives me the reason. Anyways five days after the deal was made, Holly found me and kidnapped me. Vic came to my rescue. She's reappeared twice since then, and the last time I punched her out, frustrated at her. Holly has done everything in her power to separate Vic and I. She wants me to go back to being her slave, so that my father and her can have money." I finished.

"That is all. I hope you chose to live Skylar, he cares a lot. He was sitting out there for two hours, and was trying to rearrange his show to stay and wait for you." He smiled.

"We've been in here for two hours?" I asked.

"No longer." He smiled. Time flies really fucking fast.

"Wait how did you know about him sitting out there?" I asked.

"I saw it when I grabbed the camera." He smiled. "You probably have your friends out there now, if not Vic. You are dismissed." I walked out the door. Oli and Jack jumped up to their feet. They both held their arms out to me. I ran into them, tears streaming down my face, pulling them both in.

"Skylar, the witch is going down." Oli whispered.

"Yeah you won't have to deal with her any longer." Jack whispered.

"I love you guys." I whispered.

"We love you too." They whispered in unison.

I am blessed to have such amazing people in my life.
