"GRACE! I cant believe it!" Anna said tears pouring down her face. I was shook.

"Anna What's going on? I'm so scared" I managed to blurt out as I cried with her.

"I don't know they stole me this morning! It wasn't me that told you I was sick. Some brute took my phone"

"Is there wifi here?"

"Grace this is not the time!" she spluttered breaking a smile.

"We can use WhatsApp instead of needing signal" I explained

"Yea there is wifi but I don't know the password to it"

"Who is here? Why are we here? I have a headache!"

"I don't know who they are or what they want but they had me in another room and I was dragged me into here with you"

"It feels like we are in a story doesn't it?" I suggested

"Yes I know what you mean. Why has something this dramatic happened to us?" She worried tears filling her eyes.

"Don't worry it will be okay. I know it will. It always is in the end"

"What if it isn't?"

"As long as we get food we will be perfectly fine"

"Promise?" she begged, quivering.

The door swung open, loudly hitting the wall. A shape stood in the door frame. His shadow mocked us, looming on the cracked, blank walls that kept us here.

"Come to see our mistress" He commanded in a deep, rough voice. We jumped up and quickly followed him to the next room.

Something was familiar...

There was a woman sat on a desk typing aggressively. Wiry hair, Beady Eyes and a long scar down one hand.

It was the old hag from school! She was involved in this! I knew she looked suspicous!

"You! I knew you were a problem!" I shouted running at her.

"SILENCE!" she screamed.

A guard grabbed me back to my place. She paused looking at me.

"You. You are a problem"

I glared at her; My eyes goring bullet holes in her thin, stern face.

"What do you want?" I asked aggressively

"Oh you'll see. All you are is bait. I don't care what happens to you as long as you're left with some life left in you" She smiled menacingly, an evil glint hinting in her eye. "Put them back where they were. I'll need them later" she laughed taunting us.

The guard was huge. He wore a black shirt revealing his detailed tattoos. A huge raven was inked onto this arm with a feather on his wrist, a stern look on his face and a scar going right across his left eye. No way I could have fought back to even have a chance at escaping this place. For now we were kid napped. For now we were trapped. Will we escape?

Hours passed and day turned into night as we huddled together chatting about memories we treasured.

BANG BANG! Gunshots sounded.

The night fell silent once more...
