Rage, Rage Against the Dying of the Light
Summary
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light!
-Dylan Thomas
Night is the deadliest time.
Orion Greening found this out all too soon. Two weeks before her eighteenth birthday, she is stolen from her driveway at 12:03 AM. No one saw her since.
Rory is taken on the bus, kept captive by them men she used to admire. With the use of kind words and false hope, she was taken by them and now is pawned off between parties who want girls like her. She went easily at first, but now she's not going to take it.
Sometimes, all you have to do is rage against those keeping you hostage.
