The only hope for me is you✔️

9. Taken

You were all sitting in the Diner at one of the booths, listening to the music playing on the radio that was placed on the booth table in front of you all. When the song that was playing ended, Dr. Death's voice came on the radio.

"Listen up Killjoys, got some news from the zones. There have been sightings of dracs in zone 3, what they are up to is unknown. Any killjoys in the area be careful. That is all." And then the music started to play again. Poison looked at us and immediately they all jumped up. I stood up from the booth and asked Poison. "What are we doing?" He looked at me before saying, "We're going to zone 3 to investigate." and shrugged like it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"Why?" was all I asked, looking at him confused. Why would he go there if Dr. Death said to be careful? It doesn't make any sense. We don't even know how many dracs there are. "Because it's our job. We have to go investigate and take care of the dracs." He stated. I just decided to go along with it since they know what their doing. I nodded.

We all piled into the Trans Am and started speeding off to zone 3. Poison was driving, I sat in the passenger seat while Fun, Jet and Kobra sat in the back with Kobra sitting in the middle and Fun sitting on the left and Jet on the right. We were blasting the music playing on the radio and we were even singing along. I had to admit they could really sing, especially Poison.

As we got near zone 3 Poison turned the music off so that we didn't attract any unwanted attention to ourselves. There was dracs around after all. The plan was to sneak up behind them after we parked the car behind some rocks or bushes. Once we found a few big rocks, Poison parked the car and we all got out with our ray guns out and ready to shoot when needed.

We hadn't spotted any dracs yet so we were on high alert and moving cautiously and quietly. No one making a sound. We came across an old building. "They might be in there." Poison whispered to us. "Keep your guard up." He said as we started moving towards the building. There weren't any dracs outside nor were there any cars or vans. Strange. I had a bad feeling about this. It just doesn't feel right.

"I don't like this." I said, grabbing Poison by his arm looking him straight in the eye. "I don't like it either but this has to be done." He said. "I just can't shake this feeling. Doesn't this all seem weird to you? Look around. We haven't seen any dracs out here and where are the all the BL/ind vans? This feels like a trap." I said trying to convince him that this was a bad idea and that we should leave while we still can. I know a trap when I see one and I've learned that if something doesn't sit right with my gut that I should listen to it and go. My gut is never wrong.

"Don't you think I've noticed? That's why I said you should keep your guard up. I know this is dangerous but Dr. D said their were dracs here and that means we have to deal with it." He said turning back towards the building and started walking again. Ugh, he just won't listen. I just know this is going to bite me in the ass.

We finally made it to the entrance of the building. We all had our ray guns raised and pointed towards the door while Poison and Fun gripped the handles of the double door. Poison silently counted to 3 with his fingers then they pulled the door open and we all rushed in quickly and aimed our guns in front of us inspecting the first room. All clear.

We moved through the building with caution and we tried to be as silent as possible. We were in a long hallway with closed doors on each side. Since there were four of us we broke up in pairs of two each time we opened a door. Every time we went into a room there were no dracs to be found.

Once we reached the end of the hallway there was only one door. When we opened it, it had a staircase leading down to what I believed was the basement. We slowly moved down the stairs and got to the bottom to find that this big room under the building was used as a storage room. But there were no dracs.

We all sighed. "Well what now?"Fun asked while the others looked through the boxes that were down here. Maybe there could be something of use in them." I don't know, I guess the dracs must have left. I think we should go home." He said looking around the room. "Yeah I think so to. There isn't anything useful in these boxes and most of the building is empty anyway." Kobra said. "Yeah this place is a bust." Jet added.

We all sighed again, disappointed that nothing came from our little trip to this place. As we all turned around we heard noise coming from up the stairs. It all happened so fast. Next thing I knew there was a bunch of dracs rushing down the stairs and piling into the room with their ray guns all aimed on us. We were in deep shit now. I knew this was a trap. There was too many of them. But Poison didn't seem to care. He had a determined look on his face and so did the others.

Then all hell broke loose. The dracs started firing at us and we in turn did the same. Bring, burning rays were flying all over the place. We ducked behind some of the boxes for cover. It was insane. So many shots were fired at us. We managed to shoot a few dracs down. We might win this! I thought happily to myself.

Luck clearly wasn't on my side today. During all the shooting and being consecrated on not getting killed, we didn't notice a few dracs sneak up behind us. The dracs were closest to me so the took advantage of my distractions and grabbed me from behind. I kicked and screamed but nothing worked. I saw Poison looked very panicked and that the guys wanted to help me but couldn't get to me because of the huge amount of dracs that were still shooting at them. They managed to drag me up the stairs and out the building.

I was still struggling against their hold on me and they didn't seem to like that at all. "Knock her out!" One of the dracs yelled at the others.

That's when I felt pain shoot through the back of my head. Then everything went black.

( Longest chapter I have ever written. Well there you have it some action finally happened.)
