Uncharted Territory

Chapter 6: Waking Up

Groaning I turned on my side before hissing as a stinging pain ran through my head. Getting up slowly, I grabbed onto the side of my neck. I could feel a bandage and some kind of liquid coming out of it. 

Pulling my hand back I see yellow pus on my fingers. Panicking I get up quickly before being blinded me a light. Looking around I noticed that I was in a room. Wall to wall, with absolutely no windows, only a door to my front. The light that was bothering me came from the lights above, shining harshly into my eyes. Looking away, I grabbed onto my head as a pounding headache made me cry out softly. 

Looking around I got up quietly, the memories of the man coming back to me. He bit me! When I see him, I will give him a piece of my mind!

Glancing around quickly to make sure there is no one hiding anywhere I walk slowly towards the door. Holding my breath, I turn the knob. It's unlocked! I thought happily as I opened it quietly, praying that there was nobody outside. 

"You shouldn't be out of bed." A voice said making me jump. I look outside to see a man standing in front of my door, correction make that 5 men standing outside of my door. 

"Get back inside." Another sneered. I gulped. 

"I have to pee." I lied. They gave each other looks before looking back at me. The one who first started talking to me walked towards me. 

"Follow me." He said and turned briskly. I hurriedly followed after him, ignoring the protest of my neck. 

I was looking for a way out when I noticed that all 5 of the men were hot on my trail. Following behind me. I sighed slowly and put my head down. There is really no way out of here now. Following the man through endless hallways, he finally stops in front of a door.

"Make it quick." He said and turned around, obviously trying to give me some privacy. I nodded and rushed into the bathroom. 

"You call this a bathroom?" I said out loud looking at the "bathroom" that was bigger than my bedroom. Going towards the toilet, I hurriedly used it, before walking towards the sink. 

I gasped when I looked at my reflection. My brown hair was knotted, I had bruises all over my arms, and a nasty one on my left neck. My lips were dry and cracked, my brown eyes seemed to have died a little from everything that's been going on. I barely had any energy, and it was obvious by my appearance. 

Hurriedly washing my hands I sighed, not being ready to face those men. They didn't like witches, and they most likely didn't like me. If my calculations are correct, the achievement of leaving would be exactly 0%. 

"Ok." I pepped myself up, before walking out of the bathroom. The men surrounded me the moment I did, and the one who walked me to the bathroom started walking me back to the room. 

"Um, where am I?" I asked. They looked at me before looking away, I looked down as I realized they wouldn't answer me. 

I've been quite surprised with myself, I thought I would have broken down crying and screaming, but that hasn't happened yet. Something in me, telling me not too. 

"Here." The man said opening the door for me, I nodded at him before walking back inside. I wasn't going to be difficult, I realized there was no way out, and it didn't mean I needed to give those men a hard time either. 

Walking inside I glanced around, making sure no one was in the room before walking towards the bed and lying down. Staring at the ceiling for what seemed like hours, I didn't notice when the door opened, and a tall figure walked in. 

"Adeline." The man started. I looked at him startled and rushed to my feet. 

Not recognizing the figure, I put some space between us.
