I get into the car, John by my side to make sure I don't escape. Then once I'm in, he slams the door shut quickly, almost snapping my ankle in half. Then right after he says 'sorry' and shuts my door, he immediately locks the whole car. Then he separately unlocks the drivers door and gets in.
"So, how long is this going to take?" I ask.
"Quite a while, just sit tight."
I sit back and loosen up my seat belt. I pull my hair back into a pony tail so it isn't tickling my neck the whole drive up.
About two hours into the drive, we stop at Chic-fil-A. I get a 14 pack of the little chicken nuggets and 12 packs of the Polynesian sauce, a chicken sandwich and to top it all off, a large frosted lemonade. I scarf down the chicken nuggets in a matter of ten minutes, drowning them in the sauce. I use 5 1/2 packets of the sauce on my nuggets and 3 1/2 on my sandwich. It has been such a long time since I've had something other than McDonald's. It's so good.
I take my time with the sandwich and the lemonade. After about 30 minutes of scarfing down our fast-food, we throw everything away and continue to drive.
About an hour after the food stop, we go into a Kum and Go. I get a bag of sun chips, a pack of polar ice gum, and sunflower seeds.
"Why are you buying these for me?"I ask John.
He doesn't even look down at me, he just ignores the question as if I never asked it in the first place. He quickly leaves the store and leads me into the back seat. He says "stay there" then leaves with the door open. He slams the door and then quickly starts the car and leaves. We keep driving until there is nothing around. He then gets out of the car and gets duck tape. He opens the door and pushes me closer to him and then grips my wrist and tapes them together tightly, then he takes my feet and wraps the tape around them. Then he gets tape and tears off all little piece and places it on my lips. Then he goes back and rips off the tape from my hands (which makes me jump, I yelped a little bit he couldn't hear it heavier the of he tape) and then puts a new piece and wraps them looser than the first time. He must not want any marks on my body so people don't think he's a "bad guy" or anything. He shoves me back over causing me to fall to my side. Then he slams the shut and walks back to his seat, starts the car, then we leave the spot and drive away.

We drive and drive for what seems like eternity, just keep driving. No stops, no turns, just going straight. I thought I'd be more excited about seeing one of the most most famous waterfall as in the U.S.A, but I don't know anymore. Why would he be taking me, my kidnapper be taking me to see a wonderful, once in a life time view? He's probably planning something, something not good.

As we drive I get sweaty, but I can't tell John how hot it is in here because of the duct tape around my mouth. We keep driving off into Northern New York. As we are driving through this one neighborhood, I get this real creepy feeling. The neighborhood is dark, and there people all around with guns in their hands and they stare at me as the car goes bye.
"Get down, I can't have anyone see you like this." John says sternly as we drive by Andy public areas.
But I don't hear it his time, it seems like all sounds are shut out, the sirens, the constant buzz of static and talking, everything except for the shots that fire as the people of this place shoot others for no reason. We drive by, and three shots fire in the first 2 minutes. There was a harmless business man walking through as if he had done it a million times, then all of a sudden BANG! He's lying on the floor with blood oozing out of his skull. This happens with seven other victims, what am I supposed to do about this? As we drive out I feel relieved, but also sad. I couldn't help those people, not like this.
As we drove into the city, those poor people still in my mind, we came into a parking lot, with a extremely tall building.
