Barbie: In City of Love

Shared nightmare

Barbie's POV

‘Where am I?’ I  thought to myself as I looked around the place.

I was in some dark room. I didn't know how long I was here....or how I even got here in the first place.
I tried searching my memory for it but it was all blank.

Right then the door was swung open and three men walked towards me with devilish grins.

"What do you want from me?!" I shouted. Two of them grabbed at my shoulders roughly forcing me to stand up and the other blindfolded my eyes.
I was then forced to walk forward....to I don't know where.

Then we stopped.
"It's good to see you again, Barbara."
I gasped in horror.
Then the blindfold was removed.

I was faced to faced with the man I hoped to never see again.
"How did you get out of jail?" I growled as I struggle.

Dunbar laughed as he strutted towards me while I was still struggling.
"My dear...that really isn't important now...is it?"
I glared at him hatefully as I struggled even more.

"What do you want from me?" I spat. But at the same time I didn't wanna hear it.
‘I just wanna go home.’ I thought to myself.

He started pacing around the room and then he chuckled.
"You see...I don't appreciate it when people meddle in my business," Dunbar scowled and then glared at my direction. I just rolled my eyes but I was really scared, "And for those who do get in my way, I make an example of them."
My eyes went wide in terror and shock.
This wasn't going to end well.

"I'm sure...that seeing Agent Klondike's granddaughter's head would be enough to intimidate all of my enemies," he finished with an demonic laugh.
I gasped in horror and continued to struggle.

With that I was dragged to another room. I finally managed to break free from my captors' tight grips.
All three of them tried to attack me but I managed to dodge their every attack.

One of them grabbed a gun and tried to shoot me. But I grabbed at his wrist and kicked him in the head.
I quickly grabbed the gun and aimed it at the man.

"I would suggest that you put the gun down," he laughed. But before he continued....The door was opened and someone else was forced inside, "Unless you want your boyfriend to die with you."

My eyes went wide in fear as I saw a gun being aimed at his head.

"No sudden movements. Put it down...now," he ordered.

"Don't hurt him! I'll put the gun down," I exclaimed as I raised my hands in defeat. Then I slowly placed the gun on the ground.

Then my hands were tied behind my back.

"Kneel down."
I gulped nervously and slowly knelt down on the ground.

"No! Please! Let her go!" Ken shouted, while struggling against them.
I looked into his eyes and saw desperation.

"Any last words, Roberts?"
I turned my head around and saw Dunbar with a sword in his hands.

"Please...I don't want him to see this. Get him out of here before you kill me," I pleaded.

Dunbar shook his head and laughed and then walked forward towards me.
"But he will witness your death...every single minute of it."

I looked at my boyfriend who was yelling, begging and thrashing against his captors.  Seeing him like that was worse than death.
I didn't want him to see the fear and shock in my eyes as the sword would slice through my neck.
