January part 1/12

Chapter one, January 1st, 11pm.

They grab me as I'm coming out of football training.

There was no warning, but one second I was walking to my car the next, I was being forced into the back of one.

They gag me and handcuff me, then slam the boot so hard it hurts my ears, the boot is cramped and smells like smoke.

I can hear them talking, "Portatelo al magazzino" it's not English.

I hear the car door slam shut and the engine fire up, I can feel my body shaking, I'm petrified I'm being kidnapped, all the air seems to be sucked out of my lungs and I start to cry and panic.

The car starts to drive, I start to kick the boot lid in a panicked attention to open the boot.

I shut my eyes and try to breath normally.

________January 2nd 12:07am_________

The car finally stops driving, I've been in here so long my leg and arms are  cramped.

I hear the car door open and close, I hear the gravel crunching underneath his feet, it stops and the boot opens.

I feel the cold air flood into the hot cramped boot space, I take a deep breath of fresh air and open my eyes.

The man in front of me is a giant, he looks like he spent his entire life in the gym, no use trying to fight out.

He shoves a bag over my head, my vision is blocked, I can feel him pull me out of the car and onto the gravel on the floor.

My legs feel weak after not being able to move them, he pushes me forward,
"Walk", he has a thick Italian accent.

After a few minutes of being pushed around he pushes me to the floor and takes of the bag blocking my vision.

It takes a while for my eyes to adjust but when they do all I can see is a big empty room, the only thing inside is a table with two chairs one on each side of the table.

A women is sat at the table, I've never seen anyone as pale as her, she had black hair and dull boring eyes that make her look like she's not interested in anything that's going on.

"Sit" her voice echoes around the empty room, I get up from my knees and walk to the table.

"What do you want with me?" I ask, " I want nothing with you, I want your father Anthony walker".

"My dad? What do you want with him?"I try to keep my voice hard but it cracks with fear.

"Your scared your supposed to be I guess" she pulls a gun from under the table, "but if your father pays what he owed us you won't be hurt.

"My father doesn't owe a thing to anybody", "Jason your father may seem innocent but trust us he is not".

" How do you know my name?", " I know alot about you Jason like for example, how you play football every Friday that made it very easy to abduct you".

I'm just looking at her in a shocked and fearful stare.

"But enough about you your father, is a criminal and a good one at that,but he made a big mistake trying to trick us, now we have contacted him but if he still doesn't pay I will shoot you."

I'm still staring at her petrified.

"Do you understand Jason?.

I slowly nod and keep my head down staring at the floor.

"Lock him away."

The giant comes over again, he picks me up to my feet and pushes me to a small room more like a cupboard with cleaning equipment stuffed in it.

He turns around and walks back toward the door, before he closes it he looks back at me and puts his head down, he locks the door.

I'm trapped in here.
