'Darkness, loneliness, grief.'
"Hello? Is anyone down here?"
I looked up in my cell, lying on the ground, weak and hungry. I haven't been feed in three days. my master just disappeared. I let out a small moan.
"Oh my gosh!? Um what do I do?I can't get the lock open, look at her we can't leave her!" A boy about my age said standing at the cell door, that was locked.
" Look man, we aren't even supposed to be here, why would you free a prisoner, she could be dangerous." An other boy said a little younger than the first boy. I just lied there waiting for them to help, I couldn't even move. I was cold a shivering so that was a sign to them that I was still alive.
"Jake just shut up and look for some keys or something, we need to help this poor girl, who knows how long she's been down here." the boy said to 'Jake' the younger boy. Jake finally started helping instead of being a dick head.
"Hey, JJ I think I found something." said the kid jake. The older boy ran over to jake who was holding a necklace covered in rust and what looked like dried blood with about five keys on it.
"How will we know witch one it is?" Jake asked looking toward me.
The boy said, "We try all of them." as they walked toward my cell I remembers that my master kept water jugs by his desk that they found the keys on. The boy started to try the first key and it didn't fit then he tried about three more time until he found one that fit in the key hole and twisted the key, then he suddenly threw the door open and rushed to my side as quickly as possible.
"Are you ok? Are you hurt? Don't worry we are here to help you." the boy said helping me up off the ground. I was so weak that I couldn't help him at all. I had enough strength to move my arms and head around. When he finally got me off the ground he put my arm over his shoulders and his hand around my waist.
"Jake!" The boy snapped, "Don't just stand there help me!" He said. I could move my feet but barely, it was like he was lifting me up. He was strong and now that he was closer than before I saw that he was... well, really cute.
I tried with all of my might to stop dead in my tracks and lead the boy and me over to my masters desk. I pointed to two water jugs on the ground under the desk then pointed to my mouth. I was so weak and thirsty of course I couldn't talk. Jake picked up the water jugs with the most water in it and popped open the cap he smelled it and threw it on the ground.
"What the hell was that for, she needs water!?!" The boy said looking at the water jug then Jake.
"Dude, it smelled like piss and it had bugs in it, do you really want her to drink that?" Jake remarked. I looked at the other one and the boy saw me staring.
"Hand me that one." the boy told Jake. Jake gave it to him and the boy smelled it,
"Smells fine to me, I don't see any bugs. Hold out your hand." the boy said to Jake. The boy poured a little on Jake's hand and then put it in front of my face.
"Drink up." he said. I drank until the last drop and there wasn't too much but just enough. I wanted to say thank you but I still couldn't speak, I needed to eat or something .
"Alright let's get out of here, this place is starting to freak me out." said Jake heading towards the stairs that lead down here, but then again, where is here, I don't no exactly where I am.
"By thy way," the boy said "my name is Maxx and that is Jake." The boy (Maxx) said. I nodded, finally, I'm so glad that I know is name now, Maxx my rescuer.Authors note,
