She woke up feeling still and sore. She mumbled in a half-asleep daze, unsure why everything felt so... hard. It must've just been because waking up everyday was painful. She reached for her covers - startled that she had none. So she rolled around on her bed - but it was hard. The first thing she saw was the floor, then the book. Did she fall on the floor because of all her tossing and turning? Did she knock a book over? Groggily, she reached out to the book.
She read the title and she felt wide awake. Wasn't this the book...? Was she still dreaming? Maybe it was in her dreams that she would get to read this book. She shrugged, pulled herself up and grabbed the book, opening it.
Giselle then promptly let out a scream. She was in a cage - a cage. And the book - she threw it and it hit one of the bars and bounced back. Okay, stay calm. She fought to remember what the heroine of a story would do. She'd definitely stay calm, even though Giselle was anything but. She'd also try to think of an escape plan - which Giselle was currently freaking out too much to do right now. She was in a cage. A cage in a place she did not know. Not her own bed. This book - it was that creeper's book. In her mind, she could see bars, bars, bars, nothing but her impending doom.
She screamed again when she stared to notice the eyes in the shadows.

The shadows were on their best behaviour, a good thing for Sombra cause he did not feel like cleaning up another mess and explaining to Xan, that the darkness got hungry again. Yes, the last person in the cage had not fared as well as this one. See, sometimes Sombra's shadows were not under his control, and when he was not paying attention, well sometimes people got shredded. Not today, he had been careful to only allow one shadow beast, a small one too. The size of a cat. It watched and waited, yellow eyes on Giselle at all times.
As she awoke and screamed twice it detached itself from the walks and slinked closer to her. It kept it's distance, funny enough more scared of her then she was if it. Still the shadow had a job to do, it was to watch, alert it's maker, and watch. The shadow had no voice, so it only could tell Sombra that the woman was awake by sharing it's eyes. Soon Sombra also came down the stairs and walked over to the cage that held his new friends. "You slept long enough, longer than the others." That along was strange to Sombra, for something that normally only knocked out a human for a few hours, she had been asleep for almost a whole day.
He would keep this information in the back of him mind for now, he needed to check if he might have given her too much and it had been an error on his part. Still it was late and she was probably hungry. The cage had a slot for where he could slide her a tray. It held food on it, a half of an apple, a small cup of water and a small bowl of soup. It would do for now and had a mixer of items in it that were good for the human body. Greens and such, no meat needed.

It came closer to her. Closer. And Giselle, obviously unnerved and scared, inched away until her back hit the bars. A whimper came out of her mouth, even though she was trying her very best to be brave. This was supposed to be fiction, not real, she never in a million years thought she'd be kidnapped by some creeper she'd just met at the local bookstore. She closed her eyes. When she opened them, she'd be awake, in her room, this entire thing dispelled and just in her imagination.
When she opened her eyes she was met with disappointment, those same yellow eyes from that odd shadow creature that gave her chills, and the voice so familiar that she just wanted to cry. It was real and she made a noise of despair that she could hardly even believe came from her mouth. Dread filled her entire body and she just wanted to curl up and vegetate into nothingness.
She thought to herself - I'm gonna die - and she nearly about lost it. A grumble in her stomach revealed that she was indeed hungry, and she eyed the food suspiciously. She was quite hungry, that was true. She wasn't sure how long she was out, or what time it was, or anything really. It was dark here, and she could only see the creeper from the bookstore and the bars of the cage and that thing. She refused to touch the food, despite being scared out of her wits. "Why...?"
She swore she felt tears well up in her eyes but she refused to let them fall.

The creature itself was harmless, Sombra had made it that way on purpose, he did not need another mess on his hands. Although he did not have a problem with it. He did not make a habit of disposing bodies so quickly, and did not need his Storgi leaders questioning him on the conditions of his livestock before disposal. The cat-like shadow creature moved slowly away from the cage to stand behind Sombra, it knew better then to be in his way. The man watched his subject carefully, she was quiet and seemed to be in between that place of panic and reasoning. This was good, he was no the biggest fan with the ones that only cried and stayed in panic mode, it took longer to shut them up without using drugs.
He stayed quiet for the moment, he had no reason to answer her question and would do so when he felt like it. The room was dim on purpose, the stale darkness normally helped to place that feeling of dread in his victims. He wanted her to feel hopeless, as if her life was not only in his control, it made things easier in the long run. This was all a test, each human was different, some fought for longer. He took a chair and placed it in front of the cage and then took a seat. The shadow creature moved to lay under the chair, like a tamed pet.
"If I wanted to kill you I would not feed you, so eat, your life is important to me for the time being." Not the best promise in the world, but maybe it would calm the woman for a little. It was true, there was no reason in feeding something that would be dead soon, a waste of food that he could be saving for his main livestock. No, he wanted to keep this one alive, for now. He had questions, just being near her made his skin crawl, and yet he could not keep himself away from her. What was she? Human, but not.

Giselle's eyes flickered around, looking for a door, some sort of vulnerability. There had to be a way out somehow, although she reckoned that this was probably not the best time for her to be trying to plan an escape with her captor right in front of her and her mind going a mile a minute about how this was certainly not happening, not happening. not happening. It's still a mystery as to why she's here, what his plan is, but she definitely doesn't want to stick around long enough to find out. He was dangerous, she knew that. There was no way anything good was going to happen to her at this rate.
But still she frowned at the food. He made a good point, and she was hungry, so she reached out for the food before she hesitated again. What if the food was poisoned, and he just wanted her to eat it to see... if it was? No, that was absurd. What if he put something in there to make her uncomfortable, something to alter her, or maybe he just wanted her to die quicker than just starvation. She withdrew her hand again, wary, despite the dizzying hunger. She could last a few more days, or hours. And she also didn't want him to stare at her, she wanted to be alone. So that she could find a door and escape out of here.
She had to have come in somehow, and she was going to figure out how to get out of here. She scrambled over to the farthest corner away from him, glaring at him. Hoping that was going to drive him away, as she huddled and tucked her knees under her chin. If she made herself as small as possible, she could disappear into nothingness, surely.
