When July woke up later on after resting, he realized his leg didn't hurt nearly as badly as it had before. In fact, it seemed either of them had come out from it well enough. It was hazy but he was pretty sure his husband could see some what, at least more than the initial injury. July crawled over to Jay, checking on him to see how he was after the rest. His fingers had brushed the others cheek and pressed a kiss to his lips with a whisper of good morning.

After they ate and had some of their water supplies. July did what he could to get their things together. July settled for sliding onto his lap, arms around the taller males next with a warm smile on his face. "I'm glad you can see me too..." July would have done whatever he could to provide for his husband otherwise. He cuddled into the other and sighed happily, doing his best to comfort him glad he seemed able to focus and see now! It was even better than his leg injury being healed.

With a sense of trepidation, July peered out from the mall wondering the next day would bring. His sense of imagination seemed to play tricks on him. Had only one day really gone by? He was about to say something to Jayson, when he was distracted by the loud popping noises of fireworks.

Curiously, the young male watched as he held his breath. His brows furrowed as he contemplated asking Jay about going. If he was well enough to travel, and they took it easy on the walk over he was pretty sure he could walk it just fine. He'd gotten around easily enough after his leg had been elevated.

He felt compelled to go, urged even and tugged gently on his lovers sleeve. "Come on, I'll be your seeing eyes if you feel weird!" He had promised with a wide smile, more or less whining. While the noise might attract unwanted attention, absolutely nothing happened much to his surprise. Just the glowing of the building once the firework noise settled down. It was like a faint beckoning light in the distance. After studying it for some time none of those things headed towards the facility.

What could possibly go wrong? They'd have each other, and maybe they could find something of interest along the way.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF MY CHARACTER July is of medium build at around 5'6". He is fairly pale regardless of sun exposure. His hair is extremely thick, and is solid black. It is cut in a medium length that is fairly easy to manage, with bangs just long enough to sweep over a portion of his face. He has two distinctively different eye colors, the left one being silver while the other is a cerulean blue.

The walk over was taken gradually neither was in a real hurry to get there. July kept up easily enough, despite his nervous demeanor. The silence of their journey was a comfortable one, it gave him time to think.

If they managed to make it through all this crazy hell perhaps everything really would be okay. Sure life was completely different now, but that didn't stop him from striking a balance between the good and bad. Otherwise he'd go stir crazy. Overthinking and worrying were things he excelled at.

Before too long, the end destination came into sight. It was some kind of casino! July had never been to Vegas before, and this was sort of like a opportunity to experience what one was like.

The sliding doors glided open, beckoning them inside. With a reluctant step forward July walked inside.

After a bit of wandering, July parked himself by the Poker table. He'd enjoyed it the few times he'd played with their friends before the chaos had happened.

The smell of cigarette smoke and booze tickled his nostrils. He felt the hairs on the back of his neck rise as he tried ignore the scratch feeling in his throat. He shook his head when the offering of a cocktail came, and instead asked for a bit of water if it was possible.

A smile crossed the male's face trying to remain positive. "Go easy on me eh? I haven't played in a while!"

The dealer didn't say much, nor did anyone at the table. His smile faltered as he waited for the hand to be dealt.

His expression lit up when he was dealt a matching pair. July thanked the other as he was passed 5 coins. The water he'd asked for came shortly after, to which he gratefully sipped at. Maybe they'd go play something else next!

July was up for anything really.

Several sips into his drink he blinked a few times lowering the glass from his lips as he squinted his eyes.

They'd been walking around and he felt himself stumble. A wave of dizzying sleep overcame him. Before July could even properly protest he felt his knees tremble as his body wobbled as he took a few steps. He felt drugged and heavy. The last thing he remembered was reaching for Jay, a fearful wide eye'd look in his mismatched silver and blue eyes. What was happening? As he went down, he saw Jay dive for him, his fall lessened as they both flopped onto the floor.

The next time he woke up, he groaned in discomfort. He felt awful. Everything in his body hurt, and worse yet he was tired up. Memories of his childhood roared to life causing him to startle as he sat upright and looked around to see nothing but darkness. His heart jumped in his throat as he struggled to make sense of the dimly lit room.

Soon however he was thrust out of darkness and into the light. Crying out in pain, his vision blurred momentarily. Everything about his body was groggy and made it hard to focus. His eyes snapped to attention however, adrenaline pumping as the voice over the loud speaker began to play. It wasn't like he could speak to ask a question. Before too long he was hoisted up, chair and all and spirited away to another room.

When he was plopped down, he was presented with two different people. Each were introduced as losers. July felt panic rising in his throat as his eyes darted nervously between the kid and the woman. He still didn't believe what he was hearing. Confusion showed on the black haired males face as he tried to grasp onto what he was being told.

July felt tears threatening to spill over. "Please..." He started to say, trying to reason with them. It was recieved with a cold sneer from one of the attendants and a warning he had better choose quickly. Closing his eyes he bit down on his lip hard before he spoke again.

"The woman..." He whispered, barely even detectable.

As if he'd screamed it, the attendants descended upon the now screaming boy. Bile rose and he fought not to throw up. The woman was sobbing with relief. The bright flash of blood from the child made July visibly tremble with fear. His muffled screams made him stare blankly as his gaze traveled to the brief flash of the room they'd taken him too.

He didn't want to know what was in there. No. God no.

Looking down at his lap he waited his turn to be untied like the woman before him had been. One at a time they were allowed to wash up. July let her go first, she'd clearly had it much worse than he had. When she did come out, the woman started to thank him before she was pulled away. He watched her go with a vacant look. Slipping into the bathroom he let out a heaving sob as he covered his face with his palms. He had to go find Jay, he feared the worst. Once he calmed down and pulled himself together he took in a few shaking breaths.

He damped his now tear stained face with a cool bit of paper towel even if he was leery about getting any water near his face. He washed up a bit before slipping out of the bathroom.

Shortly after exiting he was escorted down the hallway. The door before him soon swung open.

What would be on the other side he wondered.

The Casino's main-floor. That had been what was behind this door. July was still wild eyed and frightened as he stepped back onto the casino floor. Some of the faces he passed by were angry. Others looked scared and confused just like he was. All he knew was he'd been ordered to go jump in line and get his number.

What number did they mean? July ground his teeth together. Not only did he need to make enough coin to buy his own freedom, but he had to find Jayson AND make sure they both had enough. Frantically he dug around in his pockets for the coins he'd gotten earlier. To his relief he stil had all 55 of them. July's thoughts turned elsewhere beside the immediate situation. He wasn't leaving this place, not without him...no matter what that meant.

The thought made him feel numb as his eyes scanned the various faces in the crowd wildly, hoping to make out his familiar strawberry blonde head of hair.

No luck, he had to keep moving urged on by the bodies traveling in quick succession.

He'd just keep looking he reasoned, occasionally calling out the others name before dealing with the stupid counter business. Namely before one of the attendants got grabby with him.
