We Could Rule

Hostage

"GET ME OFF OF THIS PLANE!" I screamed.

"Now, I know that I've caused you a few problems, but I'm going to have to need you a few more times." Garrett explained, seeming calm.

"WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS!? GET ME OFF NOW!"

I saw Garrett and Ward exchange glances before Ward unclipped his own seatbelt, before mine. He pulled me onto my feet as I stumbled around, unable to stand due to the rope around my hands and feet. Ward kept a strong grip on me, pushing a button on a control panel, causing the back of the plane to open. As I struggled against his hold, he jolted me forward, the rushing air pressing against my body. I screamed out, but they could barely hear me.

Ward pulled me back inside, shutting the back of the plane before pushing me into my seat again. I felt breathless, my body was shaking even more.

"I think you know what's going to happen if you don't do as your told. The first thing you can do is stop screaming." Garrett snapped.

I nodded frantically, trying to breathe properly again.

I decided not to ask questions, despite my need to know everything. Garrett seemed happy, going over something with Ward on a tablet. A few times, I glanced over to them, catching Ward already looking at me. I couldn't stand this anymore, he was supposed to be my protector, what was he doing? Of course, I had no background on Garrett seeing as Ward had taken that file from me before I could even read anything.

The flight was long, and I could feel myself nodding off. No matter how hard I tried to stay awake, I had fallen asleep at one point, because one I woke up, I was lying across the seats. Garrett was no longer there, and I guessed he was in the cockpit, but Ward was still sitting in the same place. As I sat up, I noticed that I had been untied and that a thin blanket had been placed over me.

Ward chuckled."You looked a little uncomfortable. And it is cold on here." He said.

"Thank you." I mumbled, pulling the blanket around my body as I sat up straight.

"We're landing soon. You'll be able to get more sleep once we're there."

"Where are we going? What are you going to do with me?" I whispered, afraid Garrett would hear.

"We'll be somewhere safe, you'll be safe; just try not to worry."

"That's easy for you to say. You're not the hostage here."

"Don't put on that attitude around Garrett, don't ask."

"Nothing is making sense."

"It won't do. But Garrett probably won't explain which means I can't either. You're just going to have to sit and obey."

The plane landed but before I could get up, Ward blindfolded me with a black bag. The familiar feel of the rough rope was tied tightly around my hands and I was dragged outside. It felt humiliating to be pushed around like this but my fear was taking more control of my body. I could hear my heart beating in my ears, the nauseating feeling swirling around my stomach due to adrenaline. Of course, I struggled to keep up the fast pace they wanted me to walk at as I had no sense of my surroundings and was tripping up everywhere. We suddenly my stopped moving, the sound of closing doors was heard behind me. Suddenly, we were descending, but it felt like I was in a loft which I guessed we were.

I screamed a little as someone picked me up in their arms, placing me on, what felt like, a hospital bed. The bag was taken off, revealing some sort of underground lair. The walls were all stone, the floor was concrete and it was full of agents; you could tell that they were all different, some were scientists, others were just the normal kind of agent. Abruptly sitting up, Ward gently removed the rope before Garrett started to speak.
