Its about 5 a.m. I walked Diallo back to our tent and at an instant he falls asleep. I see Sylvana patiently pace around the tent. She freezes and growls at a spot by some bushes. I get my knife and take a peek outside. Can't be anything that bad.
Nothing.
I slowly and quietly creep up next to the bushes. Still nothing. Not even a little animal. That's weird.
I turn around and a hand grabs mine. The hand of mine that holds the knife. I kick the person and hear him curse. They then inject me with a needle. I was instantly paralyzed. I couldn't move anything, but I could see and hear until he close my eyes. His hands were muscular and old looking. Another pair of hands grab my arms and one grabs my legs. They carry me too what feels like a seat of a vehicle. Are they kidnapping me? They can't be serious! Once I get my hands on them- my thoughts are interrupted when the car engine starts. One million thoughts race through my head. The car is still moving after what feels like hours and eventually the soft humming of the car lulls me to a deep sleep.
I wake up in a room and after a couple of attempts my eyelids finally drift open. I'm on the table and restrained. Straps on my arms, hips and legs. A man stands there looking at me. I build up energy and try to scream but I'm too weak so I just let out a moan. "I see you're awake," the man says. He looks around... late forties. "Don't fight against the restraints it's no use."
Finally I managed to whisper, "What do you want?" Sounding scared and weak.
"What I want?" He asks, "I want you to be dead. See... you have abilities Ariana, that no one else has. Don't tell me you haven't noticed." He chuckles softly. " I won't put up with loring Ariana. I expect trust."
I scoff, "Trust?" Wincing as I laugh.
"I don't joke around." He replies flatly. I want your power and you're going to give it to me."
" I don't know what you're talking about. What 'abilities' do I have?" I say sarcastically.
"Don't you dare tell me you don't know!" he screams.
I start to wiggle my fingertips in anger. I won't put up with him yelling at me. I feel burst of energy shoot out of my fingers and my hair all of a sudden feels staticy. What's happening to me? Is this what he was talking about? A jolt of electricity shoots from my fingertips sending him 20 feet away into a wall. I don't feel bad hoping that I killed him. "What's happening?!?"
"Power, Ariana." The man struggles to get up. "Power." he grins.
He injects me with a needle slowly. This one putting me to sleep.
