Club Zero

Chapter 6: Them

I woke up in darkness.

I saw nothing but black and a lot of noise. Like shuffling feet. My hands were tied behind my back with duct tape. I heard crying. Like a girl. Carol? I thought. She was just losing it. Then I heard Zane.
"Come on man," Zane cried out "what the fuck do you want" I couldn't tell if they were also blindfolded.

"What do we want?" A low scratchy voice said that sent chills down my spine. He continued."What we want doesn't matter. What matters is what we can do to you." That sent Carol off even more. I couldn't even reassure her because I was gagged. I tried to move or call out but it didn't work. Zane must've heard me.
"Come on, just let us fucking go, man" Zane cried out.
"SHUT UP" another voice shouted.
"Do you want us to kill you,huh, like your friend, SO SHUT THE FUCK UP."
"P-please don't kill us" Carol pleaded, only to be followed by laughter and mimicking. Do they think this is funny? I thought. Like some sick fucking joke. I gotta get loose. I had to get free. To save them.

"Please don't." Zane cried."N-no please." Then I heard the sounds of grunting and hitting and yelling. Are they beating him? Why? I thought. What the fuck did WE do to them. Everything stop. Carol continued to plead. " W-why, why are you doing this." The guy with the starchy voice responded with...
"Because...you came down here."

Suddenly we heard others saying things like "gut her" or "burn her", like its a game. Carol just starting screaming, I don't know if out panic or pain. One of them grabbed me and took me out of the room or something. I got loose of the restraints and elbowed the guy holding me. Then took off the bag and gag and headed for the elevator. I went in and shut the door. Before it closed I saw the mime, waving at me.
I got up to the store and the Chinese guy was gone, I stead I was greeted by two cops.
