Dropping her cell phone, Alex was stunned by the strangers invading their small apartment. Before she could manage further thought, the first blow could be felt by her , so quick her body barely registered the pain. But then her nerve endings came alive and she dropped to the floor writhing in pain, her the next blow, brought about her inability to breath as the breath was literally knock out of her body, the lack of oxygen making Alex slowly lose consciousness. With her vision going to black, she tried to regain her senses, to not pass out from the beating.<br/><br/>Trying to get to her knees, shaking her head to clear it , Alex could vaguely hear her brother pleading for the invaders to leave her alone, but even she knew this was not going to happen, even before she felt the next blow to her stomach, of which there was now no hope of maintaining her consciousnesses , as she felt her self pass out both from the pain and the lack of oxygen to her brain, from the blow to her abdomen, all thoughts of getting to the cell phone and getting help were lost to her.<br/><br/>Her last thought was that of her brother, and that she now believed at the most he would be killed and most likely herself as well, she only hoped he did not suffer long, and it was swift.
