Burning Impulse

Cutting loose

Most of the memories I have from childhood are happy ones. Warm summer days filled with love and light. And the certainty that even the darkest storm would eventually pass. And for a while, at least, they always did.

Darkness lays over me, clouding my thoughts, hijacking my brain. I open my eyes. Darkness. I close my eyes. Darkness. I sit on an old concrete floor. My hands and feet tied up with coarse rope, the kind used to lead a horse. Suddenly a clamoreous noise erupts. Followed by a lound ear-piercing tone. A shakey voice comes over the speaker. "We have reasoning to beleive that you are becoming a danger to our opperation... We know you dad had a strong influence on you. Thats the reason why we had to stop you when we did. We cannot have a rebellion. We will not hesitate if you become a problem. Just like your we did with your father... Troian"  The way he says troian is almost like a father warning a child.

"Do not speak of my father, you will never be half the man he was." I speak into the darkness. "We need to make absolute shure that you understand how consequential your actions agianst us can, and will be."  

Just before I can respond I am forcefully yanked back by my hair and shoved into water packed with ice. My head is violently shook back and forth. After around a minute I am pulled up and the voice asks  "This is you only warning.  Next times for the kill."

"Message  recived.." Is all I manage to choke out. In between shakey breaths.  "Aw Troian your nights far from over, we were just starting to have fun."

I'm shoved back under.

The consept of this form of torture is that it deprives your body of oxygen. You sit with your knees on the floor with your hands and feet tied up. With a metal tub of ice filled water. Only you head, neck and sometimes sholders are pushed into the water. After a while of being shook around, sometimes minutes. Your lugs start to burn making to few secound your pulled up from the water extreamly hard to breath. Being taken up from the water and being repeatively shoved back in creates cuts covering your face. Making the torture even worse the cold water burns deep into the cuts.

After around 45 seconds I'm yanked up by my hair and asked agian "What about now?"   "Yes... please, I understand." I cry out not becuase im giving in but because they will not stop untill they belive I am.

"Good. now you might not turn out like your father, wouldn't that just be tradgic," The voice says wioth a sertain devilish tone.

"Srong, fearless,and brave were the words he use to describe you. but looking at you now all i can say is coward." His words hit hard but I quickly realize hes just trying to get under my skin.

"So hes alive?" I ask "Use to, sweat heart, emphasis on use to."

Just as  I thought I was done with the ice water. But it has only just begun. Not 5 secounds later I'm shoved back in. This time I'm thrashing and kicking trying to get away only making me worn out and out of oxygen. I start to go in and out of it. I shake my head no im stronger than this but in that moment I relise its useless they will carry out there orders.   

I go still.

I am pulled up and shoved over like a ragg doll. My wet hair covering my face. My hands and feet roped to gether I go in and out of consinsness. But a loud gun shot brings me back. The lights flicker on and a man in a dark ski mask is revealed. The red belts start to grab there guns but the man drops them faster. My vision is blurred but I make out five figures running into the room. The ski mask man does not hesitate to shoot them all. He only waists 1 bullet on each of the red belts. All shots for the kill.  I try to move but its impossible. I feel a great pain in my mid arm.

What happens next happens so fast no-one could prepare for it. I look to my right and see the man responsible for all this blood shed. But hes already looking at me. He walks over to my side and pokes me with the muzzle of his gun "Get up troian, we have work to do. " He commands. I immediately notice his deep scottish accent.

But I've already managed to untie my hands. I jump up pushing his Ar 15 back and yanking it from his hands whislt I kick his knee in. I turn him around with his wrist pinned up behind his bavk with the barrel of the gun in his back.

"How do you know my name?." I growl.

"Dont worry if I wanted you dead you would be dead, let's just say I'm a friend of your fathers." He answers, flipping around and nocking the AR from my grasp. He grabs my leg and pulls it up, macking me fall on my back. I manage to take a few punches to his gut and collarbone, but hes stronger. He is now straggling me with my hands pinned behind my head. I do the only thing I can.

Knee him in the balls.

But as soon as I lift my knee he catches it just as fast. "I'm not going to hurt you." He growls through his teeth. I pull a hand uo to his ski mask and quickly yank it off. My heart drop into my stomach.  This guy is gorgeous.

"So you knew him?" I ask swallowing hard. "In a way, I quess you could say that" He stands up and holds out pulling me up with him.  "Do you have a name?" I ask rubbing the rope burns on my wrist.

"Aiden Mathis" He says. Then I notice his height around 6.4 . which is a giant to me considering im only 5.6.

I stand up and try to walk out of the door on my left but Aiden jumps in front of me "Hey miss where do you think your going? When I said we have work to do, do you think I was joking?" He asks.

"Um.. thanks for the help, but I think I can handel myself, thank you." I walk around his arm reaching for the door. This time he shoves himself between me and the door. I grab his wrist shoving him agianst the wall with my for arm against his throat. Forseing our faces just inches apart. I put more pressure against his throat pointing his chin towards the ceiling causing him to cough. "I might just know were your father is." He chokes out. I release him but he quickly pins me on the ground and shoved a cold bone chilling needle in my arm. "Im sorry." Is all I can get out before my whole world goes black.
