The Boy

Some time later, Lisa was allowed to walk around certain parts of the jail house unguarded but with a tracker locked on to her ankle at all times.

She decided that she was going to wander around and see if she could see a way out that she could easily get to.

While she was walking around the mostly empty halls, she stumbled across a room that had most of the walls lined with books. Most likely a library.

In a corner of the room, there was a boy with medium length dirty blond hair. He was looking out of the one-way plexi-glass window. He looked about 16-18, and had the same body type as Mark.

From where Lisa was standing, she couldn't see the boy's face. She cautiously walked over to him.

"Mark?" Lisa said curiously.

The boy turned around slowly. She couldn't tell right away if the boy was Mark because his face was caked in dirt and dust, and had a confused look.

Lisa recognized him as the boy who had been tortured earlier that week.

When the boy didn't answer, Lisa's heart sank.

"Who are you?" the boy asked.

"I'm Lisa Johnson..." Lisa was getting worried, "Is your name Mark Johnson?"

"I don't know." he replied.

"You don't know what? The name Lisa Johnson or something else?"

"I don't know... you." the boy said.

Lisa was certain that this boy was Mark weather he knew her or not.

"Do you know your name?" Lisa asked.

"My name... is Alex Nolan." the boy said.

"Oh... How old are you?" asked Lisa, she was curious now.

"I'm 18. How old are you?" Alex asked Lisa.

"I'm 18 too."

"Cool. There's someone my age here." replied Alex.

Alex was fit and lean. He had dark hair, but it was hard to tell what the actual color was in the bad lighting. He had deep blue eyes, and was handsome.

Lisa walked closer to him and took the seat beside him.

"So what are you doing in here?" Alex inquired.

"Um... I was just wandering and I stumbled across this library. I hadn't even seen it here before." Lisa replied.

Lisa wanted to know more about him, but she didn't want to push her luck. She had asked a lot of questions to a lot of people that it was a wonder she was still walking.

"So, how'd you get here?" Lisa asked.

"It's a long story. Lets just say that I did some stuff that I probably shouldn't have." He paused when he saw Lisa's face. "It wasn't anything bad! No. I just got into some trouble and Mckenzie just found me one day and said that she would help me."

"Hmm. Okay." Lisa replied thinking about what Alex had said.

They kept talking until suddenly, a loud noise went off around the whole place. It sounded like some sort of alarm.

"We need to go!" Alex said hurriedly as he pulled Lisa to her feet.

"What's happening?" Lisa shouted over the alarms.

"Evacuation." replied Alex.
