What happened after

Chapter 2

Chapter 2
I had the weirdest dream. I was riding in a vehicle but it smelt like smoke. Cigarettes? Back when I worked at the coffee shop when Z.A. Wanted to take over my life I remembered my coworkers sometimes smelled like it after returning from their break.
I felt myself fall on a hard cold floor. I instantly thought I rolled out of bed. How embarrassing. But instead when I opened my eyes I wasn't in Coles room. I was in a cemented room. I couldn't see much because it was pitch black but there was a small window that caused a streak of light on the wall across from me.
I could hear breathing but that's it. Whoever I'm in here with (which sounds like only one person) isn't awake. I tried to focus my eyes to the darkness and try to make out my surroundings but that's when I realized I was chained to a wall. I was lying on the cold hard floor and my two wrist were over my head dangling from chains.
I was taken in my sleep? Maybe that's Cole with me then. I had fallen asleep in his arms it's be hard for someone to abduct me with his so close.
"Cole?" I said but no louder than a whisper. Nothing.
I'm not sure how to wake this mysterious person. I'm not sure how far away they are. I kicked my leg to the side (my legs were free of any chains) contact. That's good. The mysterious male started to groan like he'd been awoken from the deepest sleep on earth. "Wha-" the man said. Then he started to panic and I realized I was with frosty. He was shaking trying to get his wrist free and cursing about how he's gonna murder whoever took him.
"We need to -" I started "Ali? What the heck?" (I changed his words up a bit.) he interrupted me like I surprised him with my presence.
"We need to figure out where we are" I finally manages to finish what I was saying. We have no idea where we are. I can't hear any breathing but we may not be alone. "Is anyone else here?" He asked me quietly "I'm not sure I heard you breathing but that's about it."
Just as if it was in cue the lights trined on brighter than ever. We could see the entire room- or basement? This is so weird.
I wondered who would want to take us. Why didn't they take Cole? What happened to him? Is he alive?
Compartmentalize
I unfortunately had to focus on right now. I will find Cole. Alive.
I heard a door slam followed with footsteps down the stairs across from me and frosty. We were in an empty square basement with the stairs and only window across from us.
When the man reached the end of the stair case he made eye contact with me and frosty.
Mr. Parker?
Kats dad?
What does he want with us?
As if he read my mind "I bet you're wondering why I have brought you here? Hm? Well we'll get to that in just a second. For now I want to know the truth. How did she die?"
Kat. He never got the chance to see her again after everything. He probably didn't get to mourn. I felt so guilty. I sympathized with him.
"She was shot then taken. We told the police everything we knew." Frosty explained to him.
He must had sympathized too because there was no hint of frustration in his tone.
"I want justice for my Kathryn. She would be alive if she never got involved with either of you. He spat.
All were true but still hurt.
"We loved her more than anything. We would never hurt her." I said softly with a bucket of guilt split on top.
"No but you did get her killed." He said. And I was speechless.
So was frosty.
The poor man was grieving his only daughter. He's lost everything. His wife. Kat.
"What do you want from us?" I asked but honestly didn't eat an answer.
"We'll get to that Ms.Bell" he said as he pulled a knife out of his pocket.
"First I'm going to do what I've been dreaming of since she was killed."
He took the knife and stabbed it into my thigh. Just missing bone but still hurt to where I screamed. He pulled the knife out knowing it'll do more damage than leaving it in.
He turned to frosty. "I hope you enjoy watching me torture all of your loved ones. One by one. And with that he stood up and kicked me in the side once. Then again another time. Probably breaking some ribs. Then he continued to place his boot on the wound he caused with his knife. At this point I was screaming so hard I caused myself to pass out.
