Concealed

Captives

" We are captives of what we love, what we desire, and what we are. "

Unsure of what to do I quickly back away and finalize that there are more people in here.

Me:Hey
???:Hey
Me:Um! I found a body
???:I think there are more people here because I found one as well
Me:Hey try reaching out to me

After about what felt like useless tries I finally found her fingertips.
Me:This you right? I hope...
???:R-right

I could only touch her fingertips as I was chained up.

???:What do you think will happen next?
Me:I am not sure but it definitely isn't going to be good.

We try to come up with ideas on how to untangle our chains.

But nothing works.

No ideas of what time it is, what is happening and in all these worries i forget that I am ravishing.

I desperately wanted food!

How much time has passed by do you think?

Seconds - impossible
Minutes - I doubt that
Hours - maybe
Days - I hope not

I want out.
I want to go somewhere- anywhere...
Far from here.

Me:Maybe we should try and wake them up?!

???:But we don't know what type of people they are.

Me:They are all captives like us, and plus they are chained up
Let's just try

I reached out to my right and after hesitating I shake the body.
It seemed like a male.
It was like a lifeless dead body.

Me:It doesn't work
Maybe they will just wake up on their own- like us.

Me:There is nothing much we can do
My thoughts are flooding my mind and my ravenous stomach needs food

Do me a favour let's take turns and let one person sleep while the other watches while pretending to sleep just to see if anything happens.

I whisper as faintly as achievable.

She sypathized.

I went first to sleep as I was awake much longer.

{Time skip - about five hours}

I don't know how but she managed to wake me up by pinching my finger tips.

Me:Ahh

???:Did you hear that?

I listen closely and the noice is not too far out from me.

Why didn't that sound wake me up?
Maybe because I didn't want to wake up or I wanted to wake up somewhere else hoping all of this is just a nightmare...

Unfortunately it wasn't.

The sound was what I heard once before.

The clattering of chains.

?????????:W-where am I?
