It had started on my fingers. Tiny dots you would barely notice speckled the tips of my hands. I hadn't really noticed them, if I did I thought very little of them. Yet I know that's how it had started.
I think I began to panic when they moved up to my knuckles, they where pointed now like the petals of a blooming flower.
Now they where in my palm. A flower grew out of the centre spreading outwards towards my fingers and my wrists.892Please respect copyright.PENANA8JRuNoOCkD
I stopped leaving the flat. No one could know. If anyone knew.
I thought about wearing gloves, but people would know. They always knew.892Please respect copyright.PENANAzvC0PEqq9h

It was a week before I had a idea. I sat up and ran to the bathroom. I grabbed the soap from the self and turned on the sink tap. I could wash them off I knew I could. If I just tried hard enough they would come of. I knew they would.892Please respect copyright.PENANAJjVQO18Edx
One hour892Please respect copyright.PENANAhJxa9zKd2O
Just a bit longer. Eventually I would see them slip of my hands and down the drain. And then I would be free892Please respect copyright.PENANAzxOfgIec2m
Two hours892Please respect copyright.PENANAF8y5XAdNSu
It had began to hurt now. But I had to keep trying. I had to.892Please respect copyright.PENANAFcc9GQkXis
Three hours892Please respect copyright.PENANA8iPswJiYFj
I stopped. My hands where red, the pain was unbearable and I had rubbed off a layer of skin. But they where still there. Black marks stood out against my sore blood red skin, now more visible then ever. Why wouldn't they go.892Please respect copyright.PENANABYeLctS5vC

Knock knock, the sound ran though the flat. Repeatedly. Every dull note shaking me to the core.892Please respect copyright.PENANAmsONp5kYox
Knock knock "hello!.. I know your in there, come on I'm worried about you it's being three weeks"892Please respect copyright.PENANAc3iVVgxfXv
I stayed where I was curled up against my bedroom wall, legs to my chin and my scared hands hidden. I had tried to cut some out but the skin had regenerated in front of my eyes . Dots intact. Leaving a small pink line. As if mocking my attempt. They had gone up my arm now, a stem growing from my flowery palms.892Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5Ah2hlJUs
" I left some groceries outside and I've paid your rent for the month... But please Kiz tell me what's going on".892Please respect copyright.PENANAB5hQOay7rx
I waited. Then heard his footsteps, as they faded away. He couldn't know. He must never know.892Please respect copyright.PENANAPmM6AwZ5li

I crawled to the door and waited till night fell. I pinned my head against the cold metal and listened for any noise. There was no one. I was sure. I moved fast. Opening the door and grabbing the food in less then a second. I couldn't do that before. But no one could know.892Please respect copyright.PENANA95AMG4cWEP
If anyone knew...892Please respect copyright.PENANAU95QSSerXu

Bang Bang. The steel frames of the flat rattled. I sunk into myself hidden in my dresser at the very back of the flat. They would go away if I just stayed hidden. I knew they would.892Please respect copyright.PENANAQiiu75gUOa
Bang Bang. "Open up this is the FVP open up or we will have to use force" I hid my face in my cursed hands. I hated them. I despised their very existence. Yet they're all I had to comfort me.892Please respect copyright.PENANAjFRkglmJEX
BANG. I heard the metal door slam against the floor of my flat. They where inside. But if I stayed here they wouldn't find me. I would be safe. I knew it. I had to know it.892Please respect copyright.PENANA3CBIQdHJct
I listen as the heavy footsteps got closer. I closed my eyes. And prayed. To whoever there was to hear. But it didn't work the dresser door swung open. I stared up at the monster before me, its black snout breathed smoke it's eyes were round glass holes, black as night, that seemed empty of emotion. I gloved hand reached in and grabbed my arm. And as the monster pulled me into the light I realised that I knew nothing at all.892Please respect copyright.PENANA8jFUzJM3nH
But they knew now.892Please respect copyright.PENANAsNEz8ayK2p
They all knew.892Please respect copyright.PENANAylfzLVIUYB

I kicked and screamed as he dragged me along the carpet floor out of my bedroom and into the hall way. Another monster appeared and took a hold of my legs and together they lifted me off the ground and out of my flat. They carried me along the balcony and down the stairs. People watched as I went past. People I had once called friend did nothing as I was carried past. Some looked on with pity, others with grief, but all looked on with fear. When we reached the bottom of the stairs there was a white van it's back doors open wide revealing a dark void within. I started to struggle again. I couldn't go in there I couldn't. But my attempts were in vain. The monsters threw me in and closed the door incasing me in darkness. It swallowed me depriving my senses. I shrank into a ball barely feeling the van move off as it drove me away from my home and into a fate that I dared not think about.892Please respect copyright.PENANAtdyjdRxJTN
