Little Lockwood

2.8 Strange Places And Mysterious Faces

Linkin had come too to find himself tied to a chair. His head was spinning, a rather odd sensation that made laugh. Leaning back he caught a glimpse of his hands bound tightly to the wood. Looking back down he noticed they neglected to tie his feet.

He figured this one someone's kinky game or he was in trouble.

The door infont of him opened. A man with long sandy blonde hair walking in clad in black cloths.

"Look dude. I don't know what your into, but I do have to inform you that I am only sixteen."

The man's forehead creased. "What?" He then cringed. "No. I'm not-"

Linkin cut him off with laughter.

"Trevor do hurry up." A tall and beautiful woman said as she walked in after him. A look of impatients etched into he face. "We need to keep watch on the doppelganger before she wakes." She had an old style English accent.

Linkin realised now it was trouble and not fun. "You have a lovely hair cut." He smiled poignantly up at the woman.

She gave him an odd look of intrigue. "Thank you."

"Would you mind me asking a question?"

She raised a brow. "You are aware you've been kidnapped right?"

"He thought I was going to have my way with him." Trevor told her with an accent similar to her own.

The woman chuckled. "What an odd one."

Linkin gave then a tight lipped chuckle. "Why did you take me? Elena is always a damsel so that I get. But why am I here?"

His two captures looked to eachother in quiet conversation.

"I saw you appear on the stairs out of thin air." Trevor said. "A spell, you're a witch."

"Ten points to you Mr. Obvious. But that still dosn't answer my question."

"Can I eat him Rose?" The man scowled.

"And you said you wern't here to be kinky." Linkin scoffed.

Rose let out a tiered sigh. "Go watch over the girl Trevor."

A low grumble escaped the man, but he did as he was told none the less.

"And then there were two."

Rose regarded him for a moment. Looking at him like he wasn't just some stranger she had just met.

"Do I remind you of someone?"

Still she just looked at him. The sheepish smile on his face, those light browns trying to emanate a warmth but only held a dark and empty coldness. Sharp, deceit and cunning. He was dangerous.

Rose gave him a smiled that didn't meet her eyes. Sad and faded as she looked to be thinking of a distant past.  "Somebody I used to know. No one good."

He shrugged. A difficult and odd action to take considering he was tied to a chair. But still a shrug none the less. "Was he at least hot?"

A quick tsk escaped her lips as she shook her head. "He may have been attractive. But he was still a monster none the less."

"I can see the resemblance." Linkin agreed.

"To be like Klaus is no good thing child."

"So he's the one you plan to trade us off to."

Rose's eyes widened for a moment, taken aback by the assumption before it turned into an impressed smile. "Clever little witch arn't you."

"Technically I'm a siphoner. Or at least that's whta I've been told." He added in a half mumbled.
