Kidnapper

Chapter 3

Chapter Three

Rebeccas POV 

I stare down at the letter, frozen , not able to move a muscle. A million different ideas run through my head as I try to figure out who could of wrote this. Was is someone from school? While this happens, I at some point regained the ability to move and entered my room. As I sit on my bed thinking who could have put this on my door I freeze once again. No. It couldn't possibly be the kidnapper, right?

Ok, just breath, probably some ones idea of a prank. No need to act like Alexis. As soon as I think that she walks through the door. 'I'm back! ' she says as she sits in my desk chair beside my bed. She sees the paper in my hands and a look of curiosity appears on her face.

'Whatcha got there?' She trys to grab it from me but i'm too fast and quickly hide it. 'It's nothing.' She just shrugs it off and turns on the tv. I really don't think it's a good idea to show this to Alexis, or anyone. So I'll just keep it hidden for now.

We find some random movie on tv an start watching it till we hear the doorbell. 'Probably the guys, i'll be right back.' I say as I get up to go open the door. 'K' Alexis trys to say with a mouth full of popcorn, but just ends up getting popcorn everywhere. I laugh as I head down stairs and unlock the door. 'I see you guys finally decided to sho-' I stop mid sentence as the door is fully open and no one is on the other side.

I poke my head out and look around but don't see a soul. 'Ha ha, very funny guys.' I go outside and close the door gently while I start looking around. 'Ok seriously, you guys can come out now.'

After 5 minuets of searching my front yard i'm about to give up and go back inside. But as soon as my hand touches the doorknob I hear shuffling coming from the backyard. 'They better not be in my Mom's bushes or she's gonna fucking kill me.' I mutter as I head towards the backyard.

The gate is wide open which leads me to believe their back here. I Step in and close the gate behind me 'Come out , come out, wherever you areeee' I sing as I look around. It's pretty dark out now and I have a hard time seeing. I really should have brought a flashlight.

Though I can't see exactly what it is, there seems to be what looks like the figure of a man near the shed. I quietly sneak around the shed to see if I can get a better look at this person. But i'm met with air. 'Huh, where did they go?' I ask myself as I turn around. But before I can even take a step i'm knocked in the head with something hard and my vision goes dark as I fall to the ground.

******************

I wake up to the sound of dripping water. Judging by the cool damp air i'd guess I was in a basement. As I open my eyes I see my guess was right. Still a little disoriented I slowly look around. While doing so I discover my hands and legs are both tied up and there's a gag in my mouth. This is alarming as well as the fact that Alexis is sitting across from me also tied up but still unconscious. Ok now i'm really starting to worry.

I try to break my restraints but their on pretty good. Giving up I look around again, actually taking in my surroundings. We're in a basement that's pretty well furnished. There's a living room and two doors at the far wall which i'm guessing are probably a bathroom and a room. There's also a small kitchen that has all the basics, stove, fridge, microwave, ect.

I search for any possible escape routes and find 2 windows. Excited I start examining them to see if it would be possible to open one but my heart drops as I see there are metal bars on the inside and outside of both windows.

There's a metal door at the top of a set of stairs I can tell right away i'd have no chance of getting through. For starters it's metal and I can tell there are multiple bolts on the door.

While taking in my surrounding I hear shuffling and see that Alexis has started to wake up.

Just as she begins to open her eyes I hear someone behind the door. Alexis looks up at me with fear in her eyes and is about to scream but I shake my head. I wish I could tell her to pretend she's still unconscious but I can't because of the stupid gag in my mouth. Instead I close my eyes and pretend i'm still knocked out an can only hope Alexis follows my lead. As I sit as still as possible I can hear the metal door open and heavy foot steps begin to descend the stairs.
