The Get Away Girl

The sun was coming straight through the blinds into my eyes, waking me up. I groaned and turned over, not quit ready to face the world yet. However in my groggy, blissful state I was hardly able to comprehend that something was wrong.

I bolted up in bed and glanced at the clock. I was right, it was already past ten and I was very late for school.

I laid there and stared at it for a long while. "Well, shit."

I considered my options. School was pretty mandatory, however I was already two hours late. I could make a ridiculous excuse like I had a dentist appointment and didn't call.. Right, totally. Or I could just not go altogether. Catch up on my cleaning and such. In reality how mad could my mom really get?

I picked up my phone and went to call her, she would be out of work soon (she worked the swing shift at the hospital). There was no answer, so I left a message that she should call me back, and then text her explaining. I wondered absently if she forgot it at home again.

I found a hair tie and put my hair up. I didn't bother changing and padded down the stairs.

There was a noise in the kitchen then a crash and a mumbling of male voices.

I froze so quickly I slipped on the edge of the stair I was on and fell. Of course I fell, and as soon as I did the entire house went silent. I had 3 seconds to decide wether to take my chances in my room and a phone or to get the hell out of there and try and make the 5 steps to the door. Remembering the horror movie rules, to not go upstairs, I made a break for that door.

Unfortunately I didn't know where the men were, and because of this I didn't know how close they were. Moral of the story is they caught me.

A big hand grabbed around my forearm, wounding around almost all of it. I got yanked back and fell, again.

Well, obviously this wasn't working in my favor. Considering the situation I was oddly calm. I think it was because none of it seemed real. I mean I could potentially die, yet all I could think about is how I should really stop falling.

The man was pinning me down, holding my arms. I kicked and struggled, I even spit in his face. But he was a big man, and I was a small girl. He had a hard jaw line, a very boxy face if you will. Broad shoulders and black hair, a hard looking man, and very strong. There was no hope of getting free. He got up and in a swift movement swung my arms so they were behind me, and I couldn't move them. He paused for a moment, not sure what to do with me. I took that moment, stomped on his foot threw my head back, catching him in the nose. His hands flew up to his bleeding nose and I was free. Again I made a break for the door, but there was more than one guy and another caught me when I had my hand on the door handle.

Damn. Almost got it that time.

"Get the rope." My present captor told the past captor. Two more guys came out with two duffles in each hand.

One was shorter than the other and younger looking. Early 20s instead of later 20s like the rest.

"Bitch broke my nose" the big guy said.

"Looks better that way" came from the one tying my hands.

"This complicates things a tad, she's seen our faces." The older one said

"That's right you assholes I've seen all of your faces, and I'll make sure to put you all in jail!" Not a good choice perhaps, but it came out all the same.

"Take her with us. Make it look like she ran away and took her mothers things. For now just shut her up." Said the older one who seemed to be in charge.

With that he gagged me and blindfolded me, threw me over his shoulder and we were departing, out the back door it seemed. I heard doors opening and felt myself being set down on a soft but scratchy fabric, and then I heard something being set down in front of me, a door closed, and down come darkness I couldn't see a thing, not even light. I'm in the trunk I realized and panic began to set in. I sat there for what I think was 20 minutes, but I was not sure.

I then heard them get in, and the car started. We were driving away possibly to never see my mother again. Perhaps to die. I just had to sleep in, I just had to. I should be in history right now, and instead Im being kidnapped. My mother is going to come home and see everything gone and see her messages and realize I'm not there, she'll be panicked. These guys are going to leave the state and kill me and dump me in the woods.

The situation is looking rather dire. I thought dryly.
