Kidnapped

Taken

My eyes drift open... I can see my house slowly fading in the distance out of a window. I realise I'm in the back of a van that is driving away. I was too weak to move. I hear a voice at the front of the van, it belonged to the stranger. He seemed to be yelling down the phone to someone...

'Yes I have the girl!' He exclaimed in a deep voice

The conversation continued.

'I will make sure she doesn't escape you know that. She doesn't have anyone to run back to anyway, now that her parents are gone' the stranger added with a grin.

They knew something to do with my parents! A shot of energy pulsed through me and I immediately got up. I darted towards the front of the van but was quickly stopped by something. I fell to the floor with a thud. My wrists were tied together and were connected to a pole at the back of the van. I began to struggle, then the stranger noticed me and the van came to a screeching halt.

'Hey, what do you think you're doing?!' The stranger yelled as he hung up the phone.

I drew no attention to him, instead, I continued twisting and yanking my wrists.

'I expect an answer when I ask you a question!' The stranger scowled. I could tell he was not messing around.

'Let me go!' I cried, continuously tugging on my bound wrists.

'LISTEN YOUNG LADY YOU WILL ANSWER MY QUESTION!' The stranger snapped back. His face was filled with agony.

I still ignored him, which clearly was the wrong decision, as I was about to find out. He climbed into the back of the van from the divers seat, and glared at me.

'YOU WILL ANSWER MY QUESTION!' The stranger shouted, I felt his fist connect with my waist once again. I fell to the floor with a harsh hit and cried in pain. The stranger looked down at me with a fuming face, and kicked my stomach. I attempted to swing my tied wrists at him while he was in range. It hit the stranger's arm but it wasn't powerful enough. He looked at me, disgusted at my attempt to hurt him. The stranger then advanced to the pole that my wrists were connected to. tears filled my eyes as I struggle to free myself. He untied the rope and then tied it to the bar that was attached to the ceiling of the van. My wrists were now tied above my head and I couldn't attack the stranger.

'This is what happens when you don't obey me!' The stranger growled.

I screamed for help, but the scream was cut off by another blow from the stranger. I could feel tears rolling down my face as I cried helplessly. He was about to strike me again, but I then swung forward, kicking him in the stomach. the stranger recoiled and then took a step back, looking more furious at me. More tears poured down my face.

'You are gonna get punished for your actions!' He yelled

The stranger approached me again, so I attempted to kick him again. He grabbed my legs and tied my barefeet together. I could feel the ropes as they cinched around my feet. I flailed my legs in attempt to hurt the stranger, however, he held my ankles tightly as he tied my feet to a small metal pipe on the floor. I helplessly screamed and struggled, but I soon realised It was hopeless.

'If you want to avoid this, then obey my orders!' The stranger growled.

I had nothing to say, I held my head down low, crying my eyes out. I looked down at my feet, which are now tied and secured to the flooring. More sobs and tears followed. The strangers phone rang again.

'I'm going to leave you here and let you think about what you've done, Leila' said the stranger.

He then left me and made his way to the drivers seat, picking up his phone and starting up the van again. Being tied like this was extremely uncomfortable, and my arms were starting to lose circulation from them being tied above my head. I tried to move my feet, but they didn't budge an inch. The stranger was so mad that he tied my feet way too tightly together and to the floor. I literally couldn't move.
I decided to stop struggling and tried to overhear the strangers conversation on the phone.

'Yeah everything's fine' He assured. 'Leila is a stubborn one.'

I was shocked yet kinda complemented by that statement.

'She attempted to attack me multiple times, so I had to fully tie her up, hands and feet.'

I still had so many questions, why have they kidnapped me? Where am I going? Who is this person? The questions remained unanswered for now. I looked back at my feet, wondering if I will ever escape.
