01 - Stranded

You had fallen asleep on the ride to juvie. At the back of a van with no seats. Your hands were handcuffed to metal bars that held the van up. There were other passengers of course, probably the same age as you.

The problem at hand now was the thing that woke you up. A slow ticking over and over again.

You weren't the only one, the other criminals in the same state as you slowly started to awake with the ticking go on.

Panic was evident now, as everyone looked around to find the source of the ticking. Unfortunately for all of you, it was a tiny bomb located in the small corner of the van.

"I don't want to die" A brunette girl with a Pony tail whispered, just as panicked as everyone else. Someone else began to struggle out of his handcuffs. He didn't succeed but thankfully another girl succeeded with less struggle.

Clearing a strand of her short hair out of the way and kicking the handcuffs away from her. She stood up and began to knock aggressively on the barrier that divided the back part of the van from the driver's seat.

Everyone else began to yell to get the driver's attention, but nothing was heard.

"FUCK" One guy yelled out in frustration as the yells died down. The idiot in front was probably listening to some sort of music and didn't know he was needed at the back. Well that was until the short hair girl kicked the barrier hard enough to alert him.

"KEEP IT DOWN BACK THERE!" The driver yelled back.

"Forget it, we need to escape this hell ourselves." You said looking desperately at the girl who had escaped her handcuffs, hoping she'd come help everyone else. Thankfully she got the hint and did just that.

As everyone got loose, an attempt to burst out the door began. The time on the bomb read 1:00, meaning one minute was left till this junk whole would blow up.

"There's one minute left" You told the others and the guys began to hit the locked door even harder. One more nudge from everyone and it flew open. Before you knew everyone began to jump off the moving vehicle.

gosh, how stupid is the driver?

"RUN!" You yelled to the last guy would exited the van, looking absolutely horrified.

With your breaths slowly running out, all 7 of the criminals ran as fast as they could. Before a loud explosion had sent you all flying to the ground.

The impact of the explosion, thankfully didn't hurt a anyone. Except the driver.

Everyone continued to pant heavily, as they lied on the lonely road. Thankful enough to survive. It was quiet for a few minutes, until two people began to sob uncontrollably and really loudly too.  And before you knew it, two others joined the pity party. Except they weren't as loud, they had quiet little sobs and streams of tears roll down their cheek.

You and the two others who weren't crying just stared at the ground. Really no one wanted to be here and you'd all put yourself in deep shit.

So many questions ran through your mind...

Why was there a bomb on the van?

Who was the target? It's not like either of you had any connections so it's certain that someone specifically had to be targeted right?

"So what do we do know?" A blonde girl, that looked a little too sweet to be amongst criminals said as she wiped away her tears.

"I don't know"
