Back at the junkyard, Ace and Mel had Janalyn tied to a chair. She was just as pretty as her older sister with her long blond hair and blue eyes. The two boys were sitting back drinking beer and smoking cigarettes.

"This is so fucking boring," Mel said as he finished off another bottle.

"Yeah, I hate babysitting," Ace grumbled. Then a thought came into his head. "Hey, let's have some fun with her."

"I don't know, man," Mel said. "You saw what she tried to do to the boss man."

"Come on, Mel," Ace said, nudging him on his side. "We tied her hands up good. She can't use her power on us, so come on. Let's wake the little bitch up."

Ace walked over to the chair Janalyn was tied to. She was still unconscious, and he lifted her head. "She's a pretty little thing," he said, looking to have lust in his eyes.

"Come on, Ace, you're not..." Mel said. He could just imagine what was on Ace's mind, and he wanted no part of that.

"Naw, but it don't mean I won't make her think I will," he said. Then he looked back over at Janalyn. Her eyes we're still closed, and he had a devious look in his eyes. "Come on, sweet thing, wake up."

When she still wouldn't open her eyes, he smacked her face lightly. "WAKE UP! Damn it." He picked up the beer bottle that was half full. It had gone flat by now, so he poured It over her head. It startled her awake, and she screamed as the liquid went down her throat and even up her nose.

"That's better," he said and laughed as she coughed out the beer that now soaked her face. She looked him in the face with contempt. "No reason to get testy, little one. Ace ain't gonna hurt you."

"Get away from me," she said while she struggled to get loose.

"Stop moving!" he shouted. She responded by spitting in his face. Within a split second he slapped her in the face again, this time hard enough to leave a mark.

"Now, you be a good girl, or I'll have to hurt ya." She struggled to get out of his grip, but he just laughed at her. ""Oh, this one likes it rough... good." Before she could stop him, he snaked his tongue into her mouth, and in return she bit him.

Ace screamed in pain as blood ran down his mouth and hers. She let go long enough for him to get away from her. He ran into the bathroom to see how bad the damage was. Mel followed him in the bathroom to check on his friend.

Janalyn was left alone while her captors were otherwise engaged due to her. It gave her the opportunity she needed to try to get out of the ropes, but for some reason she couldn't budge them. She had touched objects before and was able to change their weight. If only she could make the ropes feather light she had a chance of getting away from them.

She could only guess what those boys were planning to do to her, but she wasn't going to let it happen. If only she could get out of those ropes, and with her hands bound she couldn't even use her powers. She tried to be as quiet as possible while she came up with a plan. If she could get to the door she could possibly use her mouth to turn the knob. There had to be something sharp out there in the junkyard that could cut the ropes.

She inched the chair towards the door all the while watching the bathroom door to make sure that they hadn't come out. Little by little she got closer and closer and still they had not come out. Finally, she made it. She braced herself and was able to get her mouth on the door. She didn't even care if it was dirty. She had Ace's filthy tongue in her mouth, so a dirty door knob didn't seem so bad. She was able to turn it and get it open, but she had to move the chair over to the side so she could get out. Just when she thought she was going to escape she heard Ace screaming. She couldn't make out the words, because his tongue was probably still swollen from where she had bit him.

"S'op 'er!" he shouted in slurred speech.

Mel came to the door and grabbed onto the chair pulling it back inside. She screamed as she as she saw Ace standing in front of her. He slapped her hard across the face which made her scream.

Her face was already a mess because of the beer he poured on her, and his blood dripping in her mouth. He took off the bandanna that was tied on his head and walked behind her. "This will teach you not to fight, bitch," he said with his speech still slurred. He took the bandanna and used it as a gag, tying it tight around her mouth. "Toss me that rope." The command was directed at Mel.

He hesitated but did as Ace asked, "What are you going to do to her, Ace?"

"Make sure this little bloodsucker can't move," he said.

He tied her legs around the legs of the wooden chair. She was whimpering through the gag and didn't even have the luxury of moving her legs anymore. He took another piece of the rope and wrapped it around her chest. It was tight but still loose enough for her to breathe.

He dragged the chair into the middle of the room and left her there. Even if she could get one of her limbs loose there was nothing for her to grab onto. "Now, do as your told, little girl," Ace said, his speech is becoming a little clearer. "Or you'll get this."

He picked up a lit cigarette from the ashtray on the coffee table and lodged it into her arm. She screamed through the gag as Ace just laughed at her.

Mel looked on in horror seeing how much pleasure he got from torturing the girl. "Ace, stop it," Mel said and knocked the cigarette out of his hand. He could see the burn mark on her arm, and she was still crying from the pain.

"What do you care?" Ace said but Mel put himself between Ace and the girl.

"You don't have to hurt her," Mel said. "She'll behave, okay." Mel looked over at Janalyn. "Won't you, J?" She shook her head up and down slowly with tears running down her face. "I'm going to get some food. Don't you dare untie her," he said, pointing his knife at him. "Or I'll cut her throat."

He put the knife back in his pocket and left. Mel stood there stunned. Ace was a hard one, but he had never been this brutal before. He realized he got himself into a bad situation, one he couldn't see any way of getting out of... at least not alive.
