The next few days were the greatest torture I'd ever endured. No one came into our room. No one explained anything or even looked at us. Tyler had obviously accepted that there was nothing he could do. He lay in his bed, facing the wall, unmoving. He wouldn't even speak to me when I tried to talk to him.
It had been four days since we woke up, and god knows how many since we'd been taken. The closest thing I got to social interactions was when someone came and pushed a meal tray through a slot in the wall. I tried to get their attention every time, but they'd just avoid eye contact.
So now I sat at the foot of my bed, trying to think through what had happened. It seemed to be the only thing I could do, so I thought of everything I knew for certain.
My name is Kira Westwood
I'm with Tyler O'brien
I'm...
I let out a small chuckle and smiled a little. That was all I could think of. I didn't know where I was, how long I had been here or who had taken me, and that was just the start of the list.
Suddenly, a loud beeping noise filled the air, and my eyes snapped to the door where six figures now stood. The door opened and I leapt up. A woman entered first, and I recognized her right away to be the one who I'd seen in the halls earlier. Five strong looking people followed her in and stood behind her. They seemed to be... guards of some sort.
"Where are we?" I demanded. "Who are you?"
"You'll want to come with us now." She said unenthusiastically.
"I'm not going anywhere until you tell me what's going on." I told her. The woman have a small sneer.
"I'm not speaking to you." She said coldly. I followed her line of sight and realized she was looking straight at Tyler.
Two of the guards walked briskly over and started moving his bed. Tyler was too busy being confused to be worried, but I wasn't. They wheeled his bed to the edge of the room and out the door in a matter of seconds. My heart beat quickened as the woman gave me one more cruel look and closed the door.
