The sudden drop from the ground was brought to an abrupt stop as I fell on the cushion. It was a blue illuminated place, lit from afar with white lights. Here, though, it was a dark archway-esk room, with only a few steps that were from the door and the cushion.
"Joe!" A woman called out from afar. I immediately froze as she said that, unknowing if they were my kidnappers or not. I continued to stare for a few more seconds until a yellow-haired man met eye contact with me.
He saw me. Crap. Just hide and hope for the best.
I positioned myself this time, in a way that I could clearly see and hear them but not the contrary.
"OWW!" Joe cried out.
"Maybe that's too much force... Joe! So you're okay!"
"Who're you?"
"Wh..! What are you saying?! I'm Sara! Did you forget your own friend's face!?" Sara..?
"Could you be the Sara who's a terrible swimmer?" He laughed as Sara gently punched him again.
This time, I heard another man speak. "Alright everybody, listen up." He announced, "I bet we're all thinking the same thing. What is this place? Why was I brought here? And about all you know is who you are." It meant that they were kidnapped, weren't they? But.. by who?
I felt my hand reach into my pocket, to feel a cold metal on my fingertips. ASU-NARO was lined.
"Asu-Naro is dangerous!"
..
Asu-naro, that must be who started this.
But... why?
Another man spoke, "What are you getting at, I wonder...?" His voice was scratchy, but soothing at the same time.
The same man who announced to everyone continued, "How about we give introductions? Should ease the suspicion a little, at least."
"Not a whole lot else we can do. Am I right, Sara?"
"Huh..? You're asking me..?" Sara looked startled but immediately regained her composure. "True.. I want to confirm our situation."
I have to go to them, it's better if I do that then wait around here. Get more information on Sara as well.
"Wait!" I shouted out, getting out of the archway and running to them. All eyes were fixed on me at that moment.
That feeling.. it felt familiar...
"Another one!? Shit..!" A punk girl shouted out.
"Meow.. so loud.." The little boy said.
"Oh?" The blond-haired man looked at me again, eyeing me up and down.
Just be honest for now. "I.. well, I was suspicious of you all, so I went and hid."
"I should've thought of that first..." Joe muttered.
"Well, now that we have everyone. May we continue with the introductions?"
Everyone nodded in response.
