Kidnapped

The Base

I hear muffled voices... It felt as if someone was carrying me. My eyes fluttered open. I could see my feet, still, tied together. My wrists now tied again too. Where am I going? My body was too weak and shocked with pain to move. The blows to my head has temporarily affected my senses. I attempted to look around without moving my head. All I could see was concrete walls and doors with a small barred window. I thought I was having déjà vu, until I noticed that some doors had people behind them... Where was I? My hearing was still muffled and My vision started to haze again. I saw my feet blur out in front of me. Until everything went black once again...

I awoke to the sound of a screeching metal door, almost startling me. I went to rub my eyes but was stopped by the clanking of metal. I looked down. My wrists were tightly cuffed together and chained to the floor. When I thought things couldn't get any worse, I glimpsed at my feet. They also had cuffs around them and two chains that held them down to the floor. My heart pounded in my throat. I attempted to stand up, only to feel a tug on my wrists and ankles before falling to the floor again. I began to cry and struggle, aimlessly flailing my arms and legs desperately.

'Help Me!...Please!' My voice echoed thought the empty concrete room. 'Someone.. Please!'

I cried even more and flicked my legs. The stranger has literally chained me up. I was trapped there. I sat up, looking at the cuffs locked around my hands and feet. I cried even more knowing that there was no hope of escaping. I'm still wearing my clothes, except my cardigan was now gone so I was only left with my red shirt and my black leggings. My feet.. still bare. My whole body ached in pain. Was I going to be locked here forever? More tears came to my eyes as I asked myself more questions. There was nothing in this room, except for concrete walls, a metal door and these bulky chains I was locked to. I had no hope left, I knew this was the end. I gritted my teeth and yanked on the cuffs that held my helpless feet together, tears falling and splashing on the cold concrete floor. I knew it wouldn't make any difference. I stroked my feet, which stung from the powerful stamp from the stranger. All hope was gone, I put my head between my knees and burst into tears, knowing I was was hopelessly trapped.

Hours have passed since I awoke in this cell, and the cuffs were beginning to hurt my wrists and ankles. I still had my head between my knees, staring at the puddle of tears I had created on the stone cold floor. I then heard footsteps getting closer towards my room. without hesitation I scrambled towards the door until the chains held me back. I screamed for help rattling the cuffs and chains in hope the person would hear me. The metal door in front of me opened... and the stranger walked in, looking pleased that I was locked up in cuffs and chains.

'So Leila, Enjoying your stay so far?' The stranger said with a grin as he slowly approached me.

'Let me go! Let me go! you monster!' I cried, flicking my hands and feet.

'You're hopeless there, Leila' the stranger replied, smirking.

'When I escape this horrid place.. you'll wish you never kidnapped me! I cried.

I wasn't sure if I could actually escape, but I had to stay strong. The stranger laughed at me.

'You?' He chuckled. 'You are never escaping this place Leila, you belong to me now.'

I was desperate for answers, so I asked where I was and what he was going to do to me. The stranger Ignored me and began to walk out the cell. I then called out again.

'Hey! where is this place? and what are you going to do to me?!' I shouted

The stranger sighed. 'You are persistent aren't you?'

I looked at the stranger square in the eyes, I can see his face looking slightly frightened from my intimidating glare.

'Fine. your in a base camp, I cannot tell you where this place is, but you will be trained to do something.. that's all I can tell you for now.'

The stranger turned and began to leave the cell.

'Wait!' I yelled, still staring into his eyes.

The stranger looked back and asked what the matter was.

'Please can you take these cuffs off, my wrists and ankles are really hurting!' I exclaimed holding out the cuffs in front of him.

The stranger looked back at me suspiciously, but I knew he could see the pain I was in.

He sighed again, 'Fine, but only your hands. I will leave the cuffs on your feet.'

The stranger knelt down next to me pulling the keys from his pocket. I held my wrists in front of him. Slowly, the stranger put the key in the the lock and clicked the cuffs open. I immediately pulled my hands away, my wrists were red raw and parts of them were bleeding. The stranger then put the open cuffs around my ankles and clicked them tightly. I now had two pairs of cuffs around my feet.

'Thank you' I said quietly. I hated saying thanks, since it was to the guy who kidnapped me.

The stranger left the cell. I was rubbing my wrists wincing in pain, but I now had to deal with two pairs of cuffs around my ankles, and they were very tight. Tiredness overcame me and I fell to the floor. I then felt very lightheaded until I fell asleep on the concrete floor.
