Explosions

3.

I followed hesitantly, not quite sure where this decision would lead. I mean after all I thought they were going to kill me at the end of the day. Although I did feel kinda of stupid, I was pretty trusting of strange men; one of which kind of kidnapped me. They stopped.

 "That chair there, sit down. We'll blindfold you and tie you up and inform Wilbur of a miscreant that we have decided we want rid of, we'll tell him he can do what he wants with you. Which will only make him fall right for our trap. He's soft, he'll feel bad. Invite you to be one of them. To which you will agree to. Put on your whole sob story, really make him feel bad for you. After a bit we'll request you back in order not to go to war. No matter what anyone says, you come right back to us." The green man stated in a solemn tone.

"You will actually come back to us right princess?" The pyromaniac inquired hopefully.

"Well yeah of course I will, no question about it." I half way lied, praying that I'd be able to play this whole situation like a well tuned violin.

 I sat down on the metal chair as George walked over with rope and material to put into my mouth. George bent down and began tying the rope tightly on my hands, when another girl and guy walked into the room.

  The girl took one look at me and began to talk, " Well isn't she pretty."

 "Yeah well you know what you need to do."

 What did she have to do?

 "Hold on, I'm almost done tying these." George muttered

He stood up and strolled over to the rest. These ropes are quite tight. Unnecessarily tight. The girl nervously walked over to me, standing about 1 ½ away from me. She took one step toward me; took a deep breath and punched me in my gut. Then quickly punched my eye.

 "WHAT THE HELL!" I yelled breathlessly

 She looked at me with guilt, " I'm sorry, just one more."

Then she punched me right square in my nose. The blood immediately spilling out, wincing feeling the black eye forming. The room was quite for a few seconds, before Dream cleared his throat.

 "So um that's Alyssa, and that is Ponk."

"Well what a lovely first impression. From both of you. Really." The sarcasm and anger laced itself through my voice.

   "God I'm so sorr-"

 "Well now hold your horses Ro, We have to make it look like you aren't working with us, no matter what you may hear about us, none of us morally hit a girl, well not without being provoked."

 "And you never thought about telling me that beforehand."

 Without another word George gives the hooded man the blindfold and mouth gag. The man applied the material as intended. Suddenly everyone had gotten quiet. When the green man whispered,

"Shush! That must be Wilbur. We'll be right back.'

It had been a few minutes and I had thought they may have forgotten about me. But then I could hear faint voices outside the door. They seemed to be talking about how they found me, I'm not sure it was all kind of blurry.

"She is a little beat up, I do apologize. She's strong and a braver battle than most of us will ever be or ever could be. You know in a sense I think you should keep her away from Techno, The two of them together could take whatever they wanted. Manipulate anyone to anything. Or maybe let them meet. Who knows, maybe they know a solution to all this fighting. The cards are in your hand."

Then an unknown voice spoke.

"If that's the case, why give her to me. She could help you."

"Okay yes, she's a strong storm. But, though I don't know her past, she has a rough one at that. Because of that she is like a lost puppy. We don't need one of those. If you can train her to be what she once possibly was, then kudos to you. Now I think it's time for you to get your baggage and leave." The masked man responded.
