Olivia gulped, Pushing the gun against Sam's Head. "Alright, Samuel!! We're going to go over some things with you!"

Sam looked away, his eyes were puffy and red from crying. His head hurt and the light was making it any better, if only it was darker.

"You've always been the Outcast, especially in This Little town of ours. Why is that?"

No answer.

"C'mon man, we just want to figure out what's happening. Don't be Like this!" Sam grit his teeth and tried to choke back his words, yet the feeling in his throat was pushing them up.

"Me? Don't be Like this?! Are you fucking kidding me, Jacob!? Why can't you just let the police handle this!? I'm literally in a chair, tied tightly to it!! I have a gun to my head, you act like I'm the bad guy!!-"

Jacob gestured to Olivia And She Hit him across the temple with the gun. It immediately shut him up. "We aren't the bad guys here, Sam. Don't make us seem like we are. We're simply just worried for you, that's all. And if we were to question you Not Like this, you would've ran away from us.."

Jacob grabbed a nearby chair and Sat in front of Sam. Somehow, he still towered over the blonde. "Let's skip question for now."

Jacob sighed, "I have one." Olivia chimes in meekly. "Why.. why have you been so distant and seemingly paranoid?! You've pushed me away, Sam. I don't Even know you anymore!!"

No answer. Sam bit his lip and let out a small sigh, Nobody would Ever believe him. What was the point?

"He's being incompliant, hit him-" Jacob was cut off immediately by Sam. "Jesus, is all you're gonna do is hit me!?"

"I suggest you comply with us then and you won't be Hit. We aren't looking to hurt you, we're just looking for answers."

"But-"

"Sam. Please, I Hate This just as much as you do, just answer our questions." Olivia's voice cracked as if she was going to start crying, Sam didn't feel anything towards her though. She was literally holding a gun to his head, hate it or not.

"Fine. Just don't ask stupid questions." Jacob smiled. "You're really bold for someone who could be shot at anytime." He chuckled, but neither of them laughed as well.

Jacob cleared his throat. "Ahem, anyways. Answer this! Why do you continue to go to the forest, every day around the same time?"

There was silence until Olivia spoke up. "What do you mean .. the same time every day?"

"Oh! You didn't know? I live by the forest, sometimes when I'm home and it's dark outside.. I Can See from my kitchen window when Sam walks up the hill and into the forest. He usually goes in distraught and comes out fine."

"You're lying-" Olivia pressed the gun against his head. "Have you ever followed him?"

"..No, I haven't. It's dark, and sometimes it's raining. Why would I ever do that?" Olivia nodded her head and looked at her shoes.

Sam felt anxiety burst into his stomach. As if there was a sudden Build up that exploded, he felt like throwing up.

"Well, Sam? Will you answer or ignore this one too?" Sam felt his vision cloud. "I.. I.."

"Sam?" Olivia almost took the gun away to check on him But Jacob stood up and snatched it from her. "Sit down."

She gulped and did what he said, watching as He Held the gun to Sam's head. "Why are you hyperventilating, Samuel? We aren't hurting you in anyway."

Sam couldn't focus on their words, his brain felt scrambled. He felt unreal, he hated this. He Hated everything, what was even happening right now? He couldn't even focus on it. If they were going to kill him, why are they just teasing him? How sadistic can you be? Why would you do this?

Sam continued to think, his thoughts making the room Spin.

"Holy crap!!"

"..."

The two watched as Sam's face went pale and he puked all over himself. Olivia ran over to him to calm him. This had never happened before, not that she knew of at least. She never saw him panic to that extent.

"Untie him!" Jacob took the gun away from his head and tossed it on the wooden table to his left.  "No."

"Then give me the knife!! We can't just leave him here!!" Jacob Held the knife in his back pocket firmly. "We can And we will. Until he cooperates, He is Not to be let go."

Olivia looked at him in Horror. "You.. give me the damn knife Jacob! I won't ask you again!!"

Olivia watched as Jacob walked past her and up the stairs out of the basement. He left them. He had no intention of letting Sam out.

"Sam? Samuel? Are you okay?" Olivia grabbed his cheeks and made him look at her. "Hey, hey! It's alright, I'm here! Okay, I'm here! It's me, Olivia.." she listened as his breathing slowed and he became less stiff.

"Shhh, it's alright, Sam. I'm here.. I'll Never leave you, I promise.." she hugged him tightly, head in her chest. "I promise." She spoke once more, Tears falling from her eyes.

"Alright, everyone. Do you all have what was required in the Trip list?"

"Yes!"

"Remember to follow only the teachers, don't get distracted and don't stray off the path. Doing so may get you hurt or lost!!"
-
"This Trip is boring as hell."

"I agree man, this is just hiking. Not even a Trip.."

"I'm gonna go find someone else to talk to.."
-
"You like me?"

"Huh? Of course I do!! What? You didn't notice this whole time?!"

"Oh wow, I feel special.."

"Hey, how about we go And ditch This stupid 'trip' ?"

"..sure!"

"Don't tell anyone, alright? Promise me you won't tell anyone, Sam."

"I promise!!"

You let him die. You let him DIE.
