When I woke up, I didn't even open my eyes. I just started counting how many times I was knocked out. So far I counted four, but four too many.
After a few moments, I opened my eyes to find myself in the middle of the woods. Now this is weird, I thought to myself as I gripped the side of my head. This goddamn headache was killing me. I got up and realised that I was right next to the garden, so I just walked slowly towards the house.
My clothes were all dirty and torn and my hair was a complete mess. I ran my hand through it and found them entangled in brown knots. I also had cuts and bruises all over me.
The weird thing, though was that I had two marks in the shape of a half of a diamond that ran down my left wrist. The first one was purple, and the other was green. I gritted my teeth, hoping that that wasn't the contract.
Turning on my phone, which still had no service but a clock. I realised that I had been gone for about two days. It was now Tuesday! Just two more days until the boat came.
But then what? I still had an unknown stalker. I had a feeling that it wasn't that boy, no, it felt different. Evil.
I miss max and his sister. I miss my old parents.
I looked down at my hands and saw that one of my fingernails, my pinky finger on my left hand, was a dark green. Damn, what did that jerk do to me?!
Then my thoughts trailed to my first kiss. Yes, I know I'm fifteen, but I was never good with girls, or people...
Finally giving up on making excuses, I approached the main house only to have it opened before we got inside. Ben was there to greet me with a grim expression.
"Seth...?" He asked quietly. I nodded. What was going on?
"Hey Ben, where is everyone?" Last time I checked, there were about a hundred people working there and everyone else.
"Well, when you disappeared, I couldn't follow since the boulder blocked the entrance, so I went back up to get some help since I was afraid that if I used my ice magic the Boulder would crush you since I could sense that you were knocked out."
"Don't remind me," I groaned.
"Well, anyways, when I got up, this was the only thing that was left. It was hung up on the wall of the warehouse," Ben replied before giving a piece of paper to me. I smoothed it out before reading.
Dear Seth~
I have everyone, including Katie, Jess, Max, your dad, and your little sister too. If you want them back, then go the theatre on the other side of this island. If you don't arrive by Wednesday at noon, I'll kill everyone, starting with that little sister of yours.
Sincerely,
Your stalker <3
I was at lost for words, but also infuriated. How could this had happened. Someone has kidnapped everyone I loved and was using them against me. My friends, my love, my dad, my sister...
Looking over at Ben, I said with a burning rage, "Let's go get them back, okay?"
Ben nodded with a slight smirk on his face. "Okay," he replied.
