 * Rebecca Black

The Farm
Main Article : Pitch Black

Rebecca Black was born so much different then the person that she has become, but after a youth filled with happiness she would have a moment of horrifying fear that would shock her to her core. As a young girl she had been spending all her time at the House Black estates, and thus when two of her best friends decided they wanted to go out riding she was all for it. She and her friends would travel to one of the House Black owned farms which she had been to with her father once before, and once there they would enter the farm and planned to eat with the farmers there. When she entered the house she knew something was wrong immediatly upon entering the house, but her friends dismissed her and kept going in. When they entered they walked around the house and found noone inside she wanted to leave immediatly but her friends wanted to check the barn for a replacement saddle. Rebecca by this point was watching her friends laughing and having a fun time, but she was beyond scared, and every part of her didn't want to go into that barn, but one of the children that was with her was a boy she had a crush on and she worried that he wouldn't think she was cool unless she went with them.

 * -Rebecca Black



She relunctantly followed them into the barn where once they entered they saw bodies strewn on the floor, and this led to them trying to run out, but when they did they saw the barn door shut in front of them, and from the shadows her uncle Ephraim stepped out. Ephraim proceeded to taunt the group before killing them all one at a time in the most brutal ways imaginable. She wondered at this moment if he even knew that she was his niece, but as he walked from child to child killing she realized quickly that this man was a monster that had past beyond thought or conseuqence. Rebecca was the last one, and he waited for her to scream because thats what he wanted, but he became annoyed when she refused to scream for him.

Ephraim and Rebecca would have a verbal confrontation as he chased her around the barn, and during this she attempted to understand why he would do all this, and when his anwsers proved to her that this man was gone, and very clearly capable of killing her she relented and allowed him to catch her. Ephraim would proceede to ritually torture her for three days hoping to elicit some kind of responce from her, but she refused to give in, and despite the horrible pain she endured she kept her strength and at the end of three days as the search parties for the other children entered the area, he was forced to release her, and clean up the mess he had made. He laughed the most crazy laugh she had ever heard as she cleaned herself up, and had a last look at her friends before she would never likely be able to even talk about them again. As she prepared to leave he made sure to threaten her that if she told anyone that he would kill her family. She thus left and decided to keep the secret so that noone from her family would ever feel the pain of what she had felt.
