Harry's POV

I gently shift a little, my head pounding in pain, distant conversation of two men the only thing I hear. I open my eyes, the blinding light causing me to blink a few times. I move my hand trying to reach my head but I fail. Looking at my hands i realize that I am handcuffed by the window. I shake my hand violently, trying to free my hands from it but fail. I let out a small, frustrated sigh before giving up and start observing my surroundings .

The room is painted fully white, a hospital bed in the far corner and a off-white door which seems to be the only way out. Bright,white light bulb lit which blinded me a while ago. I get reminded of what caused me to end up here and that's when realization hits me hard. I have to find the others and Emily. I think to myself when I remember that the others had left and only Aaron and I were there. I wonder where Aaron is right now, hopefully okay.

I start to think of things I can do to get out but before I could think of something the only door in front of me flungs open revealing a man. Before he steps inside the room, he grabs someone and pushes the body in. The body falls right in front of me and it takes me less than a second to know who he is. Jared. He has a little blood on his head, probably because he got hit. He looks horrible, sweat fully covered his entire body and his hands were also handcuffed. The man steps in and shuts the door behind him, the loud sound starts to echo, breaking the eerie silence. He takes a few steps towards me, taking the chair from the corner and places it in front of me before sitting on it.

"Jared? Jared,wake up!" I shout. My eyes wide in horror, a knot of fear that something happened to him formed in the pit of my stomach.

"Finally you decided to wake up huh? You were gone for a day." He says, his voice deep and rough.

"Where the hell am I? What did you do to him and the others." I shout. Anger raging in me even more as I watch Jared in this state making me wonder what he did to the others and specially Emily who was taken away by them.

"Don't you dare shout at me like that or i swear I'll beat you to your death!" He spat.

"I'll shout whenever I want! Now tell me where the hell am I, where my friends are and where they took Emily to!" I growled.

"Your friends are okay and they're in their rooms. They know that you guys ran away." He says with a devilish smirk on his face.

"What! Why would they think that? why are we locked here and where's Emily!" I keep questioning and I see this jaw clench in anger.

"You all are our inmates now. Oh, and that feisty little girl, the doctors will take of her." He says in a low,rough voice while getting up from the chair and walking to the door.

"What are they doing to her?" I ask in a low but angry voice.

"Shut up. You already asked a lot of questions." He glares at me and reaches toward the doorknob.

"Oh, no. Come back here and answer my questions you dumbass." I finish and he stops.

"What did you say?" he yelled, turning back.

"Dumbass." I answer him.

I can tell his blood is boiling in anger. He lurches forward and grabs me by my neck pulling me off the ground, his fingers curl around my neck as he is putting immense pressure. I gulp and gasp for air as he puts more pressure. I try to push and shove him but I start to feel weak because of the lack of oxygen in my body.

"What happened to your mouth now, huh?" He presses his finger more, his nails digging into my skin as I gasp.

He opens his mouth again to say something but before he could utter a single word, the door flungs open and a loud bang echoes throughout the room. The grip around my neck loosens and I fall against the hard ground with a thud followed by another as the man's body hits the ground next to me. Warm, crimson blood starts to ooze out his head, dripping down his skin and pooling around.
