Missing

Chapter 5

Chapter 5

Emma's POV

"Ouch!" I cried out as my head bumped the side of the van.

I've have been riding in this van for 2 hours. I figured it was useless since I have been screaming, banging, and crying for the last hour.

Why would he want to take me? I didn't do anything bad. What does he want?

I was so scared. And I realized my whole body was shaking with fear.

About and hour later the van stopped. And I heard his door open.

I was to scared to jump out when he opened the door so I tried to make myself as small as I could.

He opened the door and carried me like I weighed nothing at all.

I looked at our surroundings and realized that we were in the middle of nowhere.

He stuffed me into a big bag leaving a little hole for air.

He threw me onto a wooden floor and told me in a loud gruff voice to get out of the the bag.

Struggling I somehow managed to get out of it looking around me. Then he stepped towards me.

In a second I felt a sharp pain in my right arm and realized he had cut me.

Weak with pain I slumped to my knees.

"This is so you know that there isn't any funny business."

He made sure that I saw him put his knife back in his belt where I discovered he carried about 3 more knives.

But I noticed when he cut me he almost looked guilty and I could swear I recognized him.

He left me in the dark swinging the door close and locking it.

I realized I was in a shack.

A dirty scary shack. Which I may never escape from.

All I did was just sit in the corner and cry. I sobbed until there was no tears left in me.

My arm started bleeding again. And it hurt so bad. I had never been cut like this before. Although it wasn't deep I lost a lot of blood. It scared me that if doing this was nothing the what would happen if I did something to him. 

 

Then I barfed for about 20 minutes because I realized I was trapped in here.

I was too far for anyone to come looking and he made me give him my cell phone when he put me in the van.

I missed my parents so much. But most of all I miss Riley, Cat, and Mattie. They must be so upset.  

 

I remember how lonely I was when my family went away for three weeks to a place with no cell service.

This must be torture for them. They probably think I'm dead!

But for their sake I knew I had to get out of here.
