Inside the room, Mei saw a sight that made her heart stop. It was a training room, filled with all sorts of instrument of torture. Whips,chains and other unspeakable device were hanging on the walls. She turned to her husband her eye wide with fear. " What's this? She asked. "This is where you will learn to obey me'. He said. And if you don't, you will face the consequences ".
Mei was terrified, but she knew she had to be strong. ' I will not submit to you. You can do what you want to me, but I will not obey you. Her husband smiled " you are a feisty one,' he said, but we shall see how long you can resist, he gestured to one of the instruments on the wall, and Mei's blood ran cold.
She knew what he was about to do, and she was terrified. But she would not give in.
The room was silent and her husband looked at her with an expression of pure fury. He raised his hand and Mei closed her eyes bracing for the blow. But it never came instead she heard a loud crash and she opened her eyes to see the training room in ruins. The instruments on the walls were destroyed and her husband nowhere to be seen. She heard a voice calling her name, and she turned to see a familiar face, it was her sister Li.
Li rushed to her sister's side and helped her to her feet. 'Are you alright? She asked. Mei nodded still in stock. Li looked around the room, taking in the destruction. She said 'i think we should get out of here, just in case whoever did this comes back.
The two sisters made their way out of the training room. They were about to leave the building when they heard a shout from behind them. 'there they are! a voice cried, The sisters turned to see a group of men running towards them. They were dressed in black, and theg carried weapons, what do we do? Li whispered to Mei. 'Run! The two sisters took off running for their lives.
The men were close behind them, and they could hear their footsteps pounding on the ground. The sisters ducked down a side street, hoping to lose their pursuers. They turned down another alley and then another until they sure they had lost them. They stopped to catch their breath, leaning against the wall of a building. "I think we're safe '. Li said.
But just as she spoke a hand reached out and grabbed her arm.
