Torture... [TV]

The tv turned on... Whenever it did it was usually bad news, and as soon as he heard the screen come to life there was a sick feeling in the pit of his stomach.

He looked up and saw Odette... Immeadiately he was on his feet, his face right by the telivision screen as if being closer somehow meant he was closer to her. The Basement? He thought he could recognise those walls. And she was tied up. Why was she tied up?

Panicking he stared at the screen. Ariel was there too.. Sinbads girlfirend? Or at least one of his many women... and she had a knife.

'I'm going to guess I have to kill those that little swine in your stomach' he heard, the horror as he realised what was about to happen visible in his face.

He had said he would protect her! Promised infact... Another broken promise.
And again he was back in a situation where all he could do was sit and do nothing but watch...
In frustration he punched the wall, probably making Lilo stare, but he didn't care.

Whatever he had previously thought of Ariel.. good or bad.. now all he felt was hatred. Odette did not deserve this, he was sure of that. She had been punched before.. and he hadn't been able to stop it then. Now watching it knowing that it was probably happening only a few rooms away.. it was torture to just stand and watch.

Then she stabbed her, and he started shouting at the screen. He had no idea what he was saying half the time.. Eventually however he couldn't shout anymore, nor could he bare to watch what was happening. He slid down the wall the tv was on, sitting underneath it so he couldn't see. But he could still hear.. and the sound of the knife alone was bad enough..

Lilo stared at the TV. Then at Dimitri. Back to the TV. Again to her big brother. She didn't knew what to say. Lilo actually liked what she saw on the TV. But... She was really worried about her big brother. The young girl knew that Odette was for some stupid reason important for him. So she was confused. Lilo varied between love and hate.

"Dimitri..."

The screaming stopped and Dimitri knew that the tv must have cut out. He didn't reply to Lilo.. instead kept staring ahead. He didn't even know if Odette was alive anymore..

Lilo saw the screen went black and then looked around in the room. And now? She kept silent and sat herself down before Dimitri. She looked at him without saying anything.
