Pretty Little Get Away

Chapter 7

I wake to someone or something saying, "Please follow the lighted pathway," over and over again.

I open my eyes and find a big light hovering over my head. I try to move but can't. I'm laying down but not on a bed. Something hard.

        I cock my head up to find I'm tied down. My hands are tied up by my head, and there's a single strap going across my waist. Then my legs are also tied down at the ankles.

        Huh, I think to my self. Usually your bound to a chair, not a table.

        The sound of footsteps takes me from my thoughts. Then I see all the girls walk through the door that leads into this place. They run over and Aria starts trying to undue the restraints. So do Spencer and Emilyand Hanna. Hanna starts to ask me questions.

"Are you okay? Oh my god, what did A do to you!"

"I don't know. I woke up like this. I thought I'd at least be bound to a chair but I guess not."

"We'll get you off the table, just give us a few seconds," Hanna says and goes over to try to free my right hand.

        After about ten minutes of trying to free me. Emily breaks the silence. "Guys there's some scissors over there. Maybe we can use them."

        The girl's follow and before five seconds have past I hear them gasp. "What? What is it?" I ask. Then I hear the rolling sound of a cart. Then Aria says, "Look up."

        I raise my head to find a cart filled with sharp metal tools. I see scissors, a syringe, rubber gloves, pills, a small saw, knives, needles, pliers and other things I don't know what to make of. I look away and try to focus on something else, but can't. I start pulling my restraints but have no luck.

        The girl's keep trying to calm me down but it does nothing for this situation. Then I hear that weird voice again saying, "Please return to your rooms." The girl's look at something I can't see and say, "No," in union. Then the voice comes on again except this time it says something a little different. "Please return to your rooms or else."

"Guys, go. I don't want any of you to get hurt," I say.

"We're not ganna leave you," Hanna says. Then she looks at the thing I can't see and says, "Or else what? What are you ganna do?"

        That's when I heard the shots. Two. I feel a sharp pain in my arm. Then I see Hanna fall to the floor. Then that voice came on once more. "Or they die." It was definitely a girls voice. It sounded almost cheery. I hear Aria say "We'll come back for you." But that's the last thing I heard.

        I felt the warm sticky blood run down my arm. Then a screen above me on the ceiling came on. It read : Tell Hanna to lie down on one of the tables or you both die. -A

        A hundred of thoughts went through my head but only one stuck out : Tell Hanna.

"Hanna! Lie down on one of the tables!," I practically screamed. She was holding her calf and I could even move to try to stop the bleeding in my arm. Everything kept going in and out of a blur.

        To my surprise, Hanna was on the metal table next to me holding her leg. Then I saw them. The two hooded figures who had to have been the ones to shoot us.

        Hanna wasn't even paying attention to the one walking at her with the syringe in his or her hand. She was to busy trying not to bleed to death. Before I even knew what had happened A had put the syringe in her neck and presses down on the fluid. After that, Hanna was out like a light.

        With me it was a different story. I didn't have the joy of being knocked out. Instead the A that was hovering over me put on his or her rubber gloves and undid the restraint on the arm I was shot in. I didn't even try to fight back. There was just no point.

        Why are they doing this? Don't they want us dead anyway?

        A had pulled the table of tools over to the table I was. A got a rag and started putting pressure on my arm where I was hit. With everything getting blurry I let out a grown of pain just as I had done many times before.

        I looked over at Hanna to see if she was Okay. I saw A had put an air mask over her nose and mouth and was doing the same thing the A hovering over me was doing.

        After a few more moments of pain went by I decided if I was ganna die in this hell hole than I would go down swinging. I made a quick punch and I was happy to have hit him or her in the jaw. They just kept on going on about there business. A grabbed a pair of pliers and then a whole new wave a pain went through my arm. I winced and tried to punch A again but this time they kept there hold on my wrist.

        I let out a yelp as I felt the pliers dig around for the bullet in my arm. Then I felt more pressure on my arm. Then I saw the bullet, gleaming in blood in front of me. I heard A say something to A but couldn't tell what they said. Then in the moment of blurry vision, I felt something go over my nose and mouth and realized it was an air mask.

        I saw the A's switch position. The one that was fixing Hanna's leg was now fixing my arm. But then I felt something sharp go onto my neck and the cold liquid that seeped out. Then I felt nothing as the darkness swept me away from this nightmare.
