Riley's P.O.V.

I woke up to constant drips of water onto my skin. I feel weak all over. My hands and feet are tied tightly with zip ties that are slightly painful.
I panic once I remember what happened.
"Don't worry, my dear," a malicious familiar voice says. "Daddy dearest won't ever be able to find you here."
I look up above me and see a drain. So that's where the water is coming from....
I can tell we are in some type of city since small towns do not have drains like this and a faint sound of traffic. Maybe I'm still in New York.
"What do you want with me?" I growl at him, while blowing a piece of my hair out of my face.
"Oh, its not you I want, my boss wants you as a 'Leverage' to your daddy."
I couldn't stop the thought from entering my mind: Mercenary.
The man walks from the shadows and sits down on a milk crate. He sits down and starts to sharpen his knife. That's when I notice a scar running from above his eyebrow down to his chin. It runs right over his eye.
He notices my stare and narrows his eyes to slits.
"What are you staring at little girl?" He glares daggers at me but that doesn't bug me.
"What your name?" I ask curiously.
"What's it to you?" I shrug my shoulders. "Fine. Everyone calls me Scar."
I gasp in mockery "Oh my god. That is the most complex and imaginative name I ever heard. However did you come up with that."
A small smirk crosses his face.
"Man do you take after your dad."
"Maybe I would know that if you didn't kidnap me." I mutter to my self.
"What did you say, kid?"
"Nothing. Nothing at all." I say quickly.
A cellphone rings and Scar pulls it out of his pocket.
"Yes. I have her." He pauses a few seconds for who ever he was talking to answer.
"Ok. See you tomorrow."
He clicks off the phone and turns toward me with a wicked smile. Now this has me a little worried.
"Let's get you ready to meet your new family."
