The Voices of the Threateners

Chapter 11: The Rescue

Yawning, Jahnavi woke up first, but a fresh wave of terror rolled over her. She tried to recall the events last night but she had no clue what time or day it was. She felt like she hadn't seen the faces of her friends for days.

"What's my name?" asked Evangeline, waking up everyone else.

"No way that your memory can be that bad, bruh," said Allison.

"Remember, she needs more cocaine," sighed Jahnavi.

"Now who has worse memory," sneered Evangeline.

"When are you guys going to stop being obsessed with cocaine," scoffed Merrick.

"I will if you give me Lee Know," volunteered Evangeline.

"I have nothing to do with Evangeline's obsession with cocaine or Lee Know," replied Jahnavi.

"I know that, genius," said Merrick, rolling his eyes.

"JUST STICK TO THE PLAN," Allison said for the 100th time, exasperated.

"Yeah, but what is the plan?" questioned Jahnavi.

"STOP ASKING FOR THE PLAN AND MAKE ONE," growled Allison.

"Maybe someone will come to our rescue. Dammit! Why does my watch have to be dead right now when it's so urgent!" cried Evangeline.

"Bro, just shut up, Evangeline. We're in some sort of hospital right now," said Merrick.

"You're the one that's not cooperating here, SMH," said Evangeline.

"Whatever," snorted Merrick.

There was a knock and a muffled thump.

"EVANGELINE!" A voice sounded.

"OMG, Iris! I missed you...." said Evangeline, recognizing the voice.

"Uhhh. Love is worse overall," snorted Allison, disgusted.

"Back to topic, how do we get out of here?" wondered Jahnavi.

Walking in triumphantly, Shinkai took off his sunglasses, shaking the jingling keys. Taking the keys from Shinkai, Iris quickly unlocked the prison door.

"I wonder how I even got inside here," exclaimed Evangeline.

"The most important thing right now is to get back to Jonas and think of what we should do next," Iris speculated as she unlocked everyone's chains and untied the blindfolds.

Dashing through the dark tunnel, everyone hurried out of the dark and cold sanctuary.

"What should we do now?" asked Iris.

"Okay, this seems way too easy. Shinkai, where did you get the keys from?" inquired Jahnavi suspiciously.

"Uhh...so Jonas and I kinda allured them..." Shinkai mumbled.

"W rizz bro," said Merrick.

"Pffttt, he's not good enough to get girls so he gets boys." Jahnavi smirked, snickering with Allison.

"Haha," laughed Iris.

"Be nice -w-" said Evangeline. "Wait, I hear voices!"

"This way," whispered Jahnavi as she dashed through the tunnel.

"But where is Jonas?" asked Merrick.

"He's in the car so don't worry," said Shinkai.

"Hurry Jahnavi, they're coming," shouted Evangeline and Iris.

"I'm trying, there's no way out!" cried Jahnavi, despair flooding her eyes.

"We have to hide," remarked Evangeline

"You should probably call Johnny for help, Shinkai," said Merrick urgently.

"There's no time, they're coming!" said Iris frantically.

"Over here, guys, I found a spot," declared Jahnavi.

"AHHHHH SNAKE SNAKE AHHHHH!!!" shrieked Evangeline, now crying.

"Hiss," said the rattlesnake, disturbed.

"EVAH CALM DOWN," demanded Jahnavi, desperately trying to comfort her.

"She's not going to help us anyway, we have to leave her," said Merrick.

"We are NOT leaving her alone," retorted Jahnavi.

"If you don't stop shrieking, we will leave you alone," said Allison.

"Finally," sighed Shinkai.

"Shhh, they're coming," warned Allison, hearing the footsteps.

They all leaped into the hiding place just as the men showed up around the bend in the tunnel.
