I'm Different

Chapter 2

I mean...this party would be fun if there were actual people here. But no. It's just me, Marissa, and two of her friends that are way to eager to drink. And I'm not a drinking person. I've never had alcohol in my entire life, but I know for sure that it's not something I would do. I'm pretty innocent, so you can imagine how uncomfortable I was when I heard that she was bringing 'drinks' to the party.

"Hey Marissa." I said, fed up with waiting for people to show up.

Honestly though...it's already been an hour. Why is no one here yet?

"Where is everyone?"

"I don't know...but they'll be here. I know it." She says, trying to sound confident, but I have a feeling that she's also hesitant about whether they're actually coming or not.

"Ok..." I swear, Kermit...you better come soon.

*******************

Another 30 minutes went by and still nothing.

"Marissa, I don't-"

"HEY MICHELLE! HEY KARLA! OH HOW ARE YOU GUYS! HEY CASSANDRA! HEY ARIANA!..." Out of nowhere, a bunch of people showed up with drinks in their hands, and some guys were already tipsy. I have never been to a party with this much alcohol before. Wait. Are those guys in...college? No. No. What the heck Marissa! You didn't tell me it was this type of party! What am I going to do when my mom...no. She can't know about this. My dad will...oh geez. That's it I'm calling my mom to ask her to pick me up.

Where's my phone at? Oh. It's on the- "HEY YOU. DO YOU WANT A JELL-O SHOT?" This half drunk girl says. Wait she's one of the girls that was with us in the beginning...Jazmine? Jacky? She walks toward me in a black, skin tight dress and a vodka shot in her hand.

"Um..no thanks." I said uncomfortably.

"You don't drink do you?" How does she know...do I act that innocent? "Well I'm not going to force you into drinking this, but you will regret it if you don't. It's not a big deal anyway."

"Yeah just try it."

"Yeah do it." More people start crowding around me like I'm a circus animal. If I don't want it, I don't want it. What? Have they not seen a girl who hasn't drank before? Geez.

"No. I'm fine. I gotta go take a phone call anyway." Yeah I am not staying.

"Sucks...hey we tried." I hear this one guy say. Really dude?

****************

I see Marissa with a group of girls in front me looking a little tipsy. She has a few Jell-O shots in her hands with some vodka dripping out from the container. Well. There goes me having at least one friend. Wait. Where is Kermit?

"MARISSA!" I yell through the crowd of people. I can see her slowly come over to me like if she goes in a regular pace, she might fall. I start to walk to her and stop next to the bone fire. Just in case she loses balance and falls.

"WOAH HEY WATCH OUT!" This guy says pushing me away from the fire. "The fire out of no where just went really high. Be careful ok?" I look down at the fire to see it's perfectly calm. I look back at him to see his hair all messed up and his clothes a little baggy. I think this guy is high. Not the fire.

Not comfortable with him around me I said, "Ok." Just as he leaves Marissa comes to me, holding onto my shoulders.

"Hehehehe what's up Samantha? Jell-O shot?" She says shoving one to my face. What's up with you guys and forcing me Jell-O shots.Oh she's a giggly type of drunk. Ok then.

"No thanks." I say gently putting her hand down. "I forgot to ask you. Where's Kermit?"

"OHHH YEAH. I forgot to tell you that she couldn't make it cause it was to far for her to drive." What? Are you serious. This can't be happening.

"WHAT? ARE YOU-nope ok. It's fine. That's it. You can go back to you friends now." This is why I don't make plans. Because Marissa never tells me the things I need to know. For instance, PEOPLE DRINKING. Kermit is so lucky she couldn't come because we're both innocent and it would be a disaster if she found out.

"Kk. Oh and why don't you get some gummy bears." She comes up to whisper to my ear "Heheheh they have vodka in them."

"I don't like gummy bears. I'm fine." Really? Gummy bears too. This is too much.

"Ok." She says now walking like she can't even see the floor. I'm going to call my mom this is ridiculous. It's...10 o'clock. Shoot I'm dead. Dead.

I walk close to shore because for some reason it's quieter here and no one can see you. Also I think we're the only ones here this late so I don't have to worry about any criminals trying to kill me. I never got to see the view though. The water looks beautiful. I would sit here and read a book if it wasn't for me being at this party. I should call my mom now. It's getting late.

"Pick up pick up." I say to my phone. "Why aren't you-" That's when my phone got ripped out of my hands and thrown into the ocean.

"HEY! WHAT THE HELL!" Just as I turn around to see who took it, I feel a punch to the face. I look up to see this man with sunglasses over his face and a black hoodie. I leave no time for him to grab me while I kick him where the sun don't shine and I run.

I can hear the guy grunt from behind me. Good! That's what he gets! Ok. I need to go back to the party so there are witnesses. Why did I have to go to a place no one can see me at. I'm such a- I hear him start to sprint. And just like that I'm on the floor. What the hell he runs fast! No! I can't let him take me! I start to punch his throat, but with a force so strong, he grabs both my hands and ties me up. NO! I'm not getting kidnapped. No. I start to knee him but to no avail as he doesn't even flinch. He punches me repeatedly in the stomach to the point where I'm slipping in and out of consciousness. He then puts a blindfold on me and I feel myself being carried. No. No. This can't be happening. I won't let him. The last thing I feel is a gust of wind and me being thrown in the back seat. How did he-

Blackness.

"Throw her in there."

"Which cage?"

"That one."

"Ok."

"I love how we welcome newcomers into the business. Hope your ready to be a slave."
