Abrupt Encounter [Joongdunk]

2. Suffocating gloom

                             
dunks head is aching he feels like blankness is exploding inside him, and as remnants of last night comes to his mind, he is frozen in place.

He can’t see anything his eyesight is eaten by absence of light, he tries to move and remove something that’s covering his eyes, but all he can feel is cold metal around his hands, the hands that are chained together at the back of the column,
dunk apparently sits on the floor which feels muddy, when he tries to breath the smell of dust and humidity comes to his senses

the confusion and unease start to rise in him as he can’t help but feel trapped in an unfamiliar ambience, the questions in his mind are replaced with another and he can’t answer any of them

where is pond, what happened to him?

Is he alive?

What happened yesterday and who were those people?

And what is he doing here himself?

As he tries to somehow get his hands freed, to his surprise he hears someone’s groan,
so he is not alone here,
the thought of it brings him some relief

“hey pond is that you?” dunk wishes that his friend is alive, so he prefers to think that pond is chained in this odious place next to him rather to consider that he is no longer in this world, no dunk won’t believe that

“what who is pond, who are you?” the person says desperately, and dunk can’t help but feel disappointed that it’s not pond - but a voice from a person that he never heard before

The stranger probably just realized what’s happening to him and he seems panicked, he keeps moving and sighing in frustration

“I tried too, but these things are attached hard on my hands” dunk tries to talk to him, well there is not so much that he can do right now and that person seems really scared

“where am I and who the hell are you?

“hey reax a little I have no idea where we are as well, and I can’t even see you so…” dunk doesn’t really wanna scare this person even more so he tries to talk to him in a soft tone and hope that he feels like he at least is not alone in this unpleasant situation

“how can you be so calm when you literally can’t move your hands and can’t see anything around you”

Well dunks gonna lie if he says that he is not scared but he is aware that it will not change anything so what’s the point to express it, and maybe deep down he thinks that some miracle will get him out of here

“well I can be calm because I accepted the fact that I can’t move my hands or see anything almost an hour before I heard your voice” dunk smiles and it’s also clear in his voice,
at this point dunk can conclude that him begin here right now is due to pond and that people who he was observing yesterday, but what is this person doing here, who Is he?

“I should be sleeping in my comfy bed right now, but instead am stuck in this…” he tries to free himself again but each try is futile
“I walked across a scene last night.... so many giant man with guns, when I heard a gunshot I tried to get out from there but they caught me until I could take another step back, and I assume that’s why am here aghh” he seems annoyed by his own self and his unluckiness

Suddenly dunk remembers a stranger in the shadows from yesterday and he realizes that it’s the same person

“ohh I saw you yesterday, how come you were there at the perfect moment?” dunk laughs sarcastically
