The Grey

Chapter 9 - Prey

Amber and I sat on the floor as David paced the floor in front of us. As we sat there, I wondered what they were doing to Drake or Louise, I was scared for what they could be doing to them.

David then spoke. "All of this could've been avoided from the start, you putting up a fight, then trying to take over the camp."

He sighed. "It didn't have to be this way, but you caused this to happen."

We sat there looking at the floor as he spoke, I was thinking on what I should do, they had the power to kill us or some other horrible thing he had brewing in his dark mind.

"Emily, that's your name right?" He questioned me, as he started to walk toward us.

I sat quiet as he bent down to talk to us face to face. I continued to stare at the floor as the continued to question me.

"Why won't you speak to me dammit!" He yelled causing me to look at him.

I glanced over at Amber and saw the look of terror in her like a child's. I watched as he paced the floor again muttering nonsense to himself.

"Yes-yes, that's her name." Amber muttered.

Her words caught his interest as he then walked over to her.

"So, you'll talk." He said in a disturbing tone, as he faced Amber.

"Why don't you tell me about you and your friend, trying to take over the camp." he said to her whilst starting to take a small pistol out of his pocket.

"I-I had no part, please, please don't kill me, it was her-her and Louise."

"Leave us alone, put the gun away and I'll talk, just-just don't-don't shoot us, please." I muttered to him.

He then stared at me studying me, for a few moments before slowly putting the gun back into his pocket.

"Fine, lets talk."
************************************

I told David what he wanted to hear and pleaded for him to let us go.

"You bitch, how can I trust that once you leave you won't comeback?" He asked me.

"Your friend, he's rather dangerous to be around and so are you, we can't trust you."

"Wha-why are you going to do with us then?" Amber muttered to him as she cried.

He was silent, he just sat, staring at us as we sat on the floor in distress.

A man had come into the room and spoke to David quietly before stepping out.

"Get up, your leaving." he told us.

We stood up and followed him as a man grabbed us and led us. They took us to a small opening in the forest and sat us down as a man stood with his gun pointing to us.

"Blindfold them." David commanded one of his men.

************************************
Amber and I sat, blindfolded as I heard noise of people coming through. I felt like this was it, the end. There was no escape now.

"Put them over there, beside them."

A man was thrown to the ground beside me, then what seemed to be a woman.

"Emily, we have to get out of here." I heard a mans voice say to me.

"Drake?" I whispered.

"We need to leave, to kill him."

Before I could respond to him someone grabbed me and started to drag me away from Drake and Amber. They took my blindfold off, letting me see. David pointed a gun in my face, ready to pull the trigger. I saw Louise, Drake and Amber blindfolded on the ground.

"No, no-you can't."

"Stop, no one else needs to die, let them go." Louise spoke.

I was the prey now, he was the hunter. Louise was the only way to possibly getting out of this now. She was our last hope.
