Lily's Journey - Lily & Deidre

[DrZone]

Lily wakes up to the darkest darkness she has ever experienced, and although it is a little scary, it feels a lot better than her mornings in the last 96 odd hours. There it is again, the voice that woke her up. "Deidre. Is that you?" The voice is coming from in front of her somewhere. It is so dark she cannot even see her hands, which are still tied to the wheelchair. "Deidre, are you there?". A bright light suddenly illuminates her face and she has to squint, her head half down. "Deidre, look up.". Lily lifts her head. "Who's Deidre?" she asks. The light is turned off and everything is bathed in pitch blackness.

Lily feels a burning sensation in her arm. "Ouch..". Suddenly her head swells to double its size, and every heartbeat thunders through her brain. "Aaaggh". The pain is dull, but it pounds. The light turns on and this time Lily's face is turned towards it, she squints but can't turn her head down, it hurts too much. The sweat is forming on her face as the headache refuses to settle, the bright light hurting her eyes, her mind.. "Deidre, you need to pay attention. Are you listening?". Lily doesn't know what to say. "I am going to give you an instruction. You are going to follow it. Then I will give you another, and another, and you will carry them out each time I tell you to."

"But I am not Deidre" Lily shouts, the speaking making her head hurt. The light turns off again. The voice is gone, she cannot hear anything. She feels the burning sensation in her arm again. Oh no she thinks, not again. This time she is certain she is going to blow her brains out. It feels like a ton of pressure is applied and someone is squeezing her scull. She wants to grab her head, but she is tied down. The bright light returns, and it is even more intense than before. Before the voice can speak, Lily can't take it anymore. "I'm not sure who Deidre is, what do you want from me?" tears welling up in her eyes. The light goes out.

"No please, no, what should I say, I'll say whatever you want." Her arm is on fire again, her head swells, the pounding returns and the pressure is nearly making her pass out. "Oh no, aaagh. Please, please, no more..." Lily is crying, the tears running down her cheek. She just wants to pass out, but she doesn't. Even though her eyes are closed, she immediately senses the white light being turned on. She lifts up her head, her eyes still shut. She tries to open them, but everything is blurry. She gasps for breathe. "Deidre? Are you listening?" the voice whispers. "Yes, yes I am." Lily replies. "Good" the voice answers. "You will speak when spoken to, and only then. Do you understand?". Lily tries to focus, but the light is too bright, burning int othe back of her skull. "Yes, I do." The voice continues. "You also understand that you will obey my instructions, and that you will be punished if you fail to do so?". Lily has an eerie feeling, but her conditioning the last couple of days has convinced her she will regret disobedience. "Yes" she says. "We will take a short break now." Suddenly the voice is gone. Lily is startled by a hand holding a glass of some sort of liquor. "Drink it." the voice commands. Lily opens her mouth as the hand gently puts the rim of the glass over her lips. She quickly swallows the contents, the liquid burning her stomach, making her feel warm and fuzzy. The hand returns with a cigarette, feeding it to her, until it gets put out by the stomp of a boot on the floor.

"We are entertaining guests tonight. You are expected to behave. If you do you will have a wonderful time. If you disobey..., let's just say you haven't felt such pain before." Lily doesn't answer, she cannot imagine feeling more pain than in the last two hours. "Do you want to join us?". Lily does, she wants to so much, she wants to not feel pain, and have a good time. "Yes, yes, I'll be good."

"What is your name?" the voice asks. Before Lily has time to answer, Celeste shoves a freshly soaked chloroform pad in front of Lily's face and pulls her head back into her own belly, making Lily lean slightly back. "What is your name?" the voice demands again? The sleepy sensation that comes over Lily and the void she wants to drown into are nearly too much for her, but she has to answer, she has to obey. "Deidre, .. Deidre..." she whispers as Celeste presses the pad tighter over her nose. "Gmmmmph" is all Lily says as her head tilts off to one side, she already under.

"When you have had your fun Celeste, give her a big cocktail and put her away for the night. Two more days of this treatment and she'll be primed to fill the needs of our guest." Vivian grabs her car keys and turns around. She'll share that bottle of shiraz with her husband tonight. It has been a long day.
