Darian's eyes fluttered open, her pupils dilating to accommodate for the pitch black she was in. She tried to sit up but found herself restrained at the arms and legs. She writhed helplessly in her bonds, her throat becoming raw from her screams.
"Hello?! Is anyone out there?! HELLO?!" Darian shouted, her heartbeat throbbing in her ears as adrenaline coursed through her veins. Had she been kidnapped? Terror sunk into her very core as she screamed and screamed, everything from demanding answers to begging for release. Darian finally felt her voice catch in her throat mid-scream as painfully bright fluorescent lights flickered on, revealing a horrifying sight. A room. A plain, ordinary white room. Darian craned her head upwards and spotted nothing more than a dresser and a bed contained in these four walls. Something wasn't right. These ordinary pieces of furniture were enormous, fit for a giant. They had to be at least thirty times the size of normal. Something dawned on Darian, something she wished that she hadn't realized. The stiff board that she was trapped on was not a board at all, but a table to which she was bound spread eagle by electrical tape. Darian screamed in terror with each realization, hoping to god that she wouldn't meet the monster that put these objects to use. As if on cue, a rhythmic thunder sounded outside.
"Oh, well hello there." A titanic teenage body burst through the door, scaring Darian half to death.
"Wh-what have you done to me?!" Darian cried, recognizing the giant as the girl she had relentlessly tormented at school. Her heart pounded in sheer terror as she squirmed helplessly, the icy cold reality of the situation sinking into her mind.
"Well, I've brought you down to a much more manageable size... One which I can enact my complete revenge on you." Anna replied casually.
"Wh-why are you so big?! H-how tall am I?!" Darian shakily asked, positive she didn't want this information.
"Two. inches." Anna coldly responded. Darian reeled in horror at the gravity of the situation, instantly filled with regret of every single time she had teased, mocked, or abused Anna in any way. She wouldn't even ask why Anna was doing this to her because she knew. Darian felt her throat grow dry as tears slipped down her cheeks, unadulterated fear overtaking her every sense.
"Please... Pl-please don't do this... I-I'm sorry... I'm so, so sorry..." Darian choked out, every word wracked with sobs.
"No you're not." Anna countered. "Oh, but you will be. Mark my words, I will make every single day of the rest of your life a living Hell."
"No... No... Please... Please..." Darian whimpered. "Y-you... You're better than this... Please..."
"Do you really think I care?" Anna asked, turning away to grab something. She faced Darian, her hand clutching a small glass jar, a length of wire, and a small black cloth. "Trust me, I'll make you pay."
"Please!" Darian wailed as she was removed from her bonds. Anna rolled her eyes, flipping Darian over onto her stomach and pinning her down. "No, no, no, no, no!" Darian cried as Anna deftly tied the black cloth around Darian's eyes, creating a blindfold. With Darian still incapacitated by her finger, Anna cut the wire into three pieces, wrapping one tightly around Darian's ankles, essentially creating a spreader bar. Anna then repeated the process with Darian's hands, placing them behind her back. With Darian now helplessly bound, Anna released her, laughing at her cries and desperate squirming. Anna took the last piece of wire, pulling it tightly around Darian's neck to create a collar. "Hggkh--!" Darian choked out as the thick piece of metal slammed up against her throat. Anna nimbly twisted the ends of the wire together, closing the collar around Darian's neck. "Pl-please..." Darian futilely moaned as she was hoisted into the air.
"Don't you look pretty?" Anna cooed, accompanied by cackling, mocking laughter. Anna opened the tiny jar, just barely wide enough to allow Darian to sit in, and dropped her little prize inside. The outside of this jar had been covered in black paint ensuring that Darian wouldn't even be able to tell whether it was night or day.
"Pl-please! Please, don't leave me here..." Darian cried as she writhed in her cramped prison. "P-people will notice I'm missing! They'll come looking for me and--and you'll be found out! Please!" Darian begged desperately.
"Oh, of course they'll come looking for you! But do you REALLY think they'll be looking for an insect sized girl in a glass jar?!" Anna mockingly replied. Darian gasped for breath between sobs as Anna's cruel but true words sunk in, eliciting more pained weeping. "But don't worry, once I've got you properly trained I'll let you out, get you a nice cage where you can actually stand up! Wouldn't that be nice?" Anna sincerely asked. Darian sucked in air through her gritted teeth as she struggled to respond through her hysterical weeping.
"Y-yes..."
"Of course, this all depends on you. You can... continue to be proud and spend half a year in this jar, or... You can get rid of your pride and sense of worth and spend maybe two months at most. It's all up to you." Anna sealed the jar with the top, several holes punched in the top to prevent suffocation. "But rest assured Darian, no matter how much time you choose to spend in this jar, by the end of it, you WILL obey me." with that final chilling statement, Anna opened the bottom drawer of her dresser, the one she never used, placed the jar inside, and closed it, leaving its tiny inhabitant to rot.
