Five's Fate

Challenging the Darkness

I don't say anything and keep myself quiet as I have been. In the risk of resulting being blinded again. Music stuttered from the signal falling and rising and everyone just stayed quiet. Sam was driving when John got a phone call. Sam asked "Nine?" And John answered "of course"

John Answered, "hello Nine." Plainly. And.i heard nine through the phone. "You should have seen Marinas face when I told her I was gonna drive! Ha! HAHA. thought I'd crash of something!" "Nine! Hand me that phone and put your hand on the wheel! You're going to kill us all!" Marina shrieks when she realizes nine is talking on the phone instead of keeping his one arm on the wheel.

She takes it from him "HI John" "HI Marina" He replies. "Everything okay over there or has Nine driven you into the ocean?" He asks suspiciously.

Marina answers "if it does happen it would be because he wasn't driving. How's your end? Any idea how much farther?"

John replies "Good. And only a couple more hours hopefully. I'm tired of this driving thing."

"You're not talking while driving too are you?" She asks.

Sam pipes in "He doesn't know what he's talking about! I've been driving for the last three hours!"

Everyone laughs. "Well Okay but it's getting late." Marina brings up.

"I know. I think we're close." John answers.

"Okay see you all there." And the call ends.

I round up the courage to ask "I know I'm supposed to keep quiet but where are we going?"

Everyone stares at me. Six answers though. "If you know you're not supposed to talk then why are you?"

I object "because we've been in here for hours and I don't have a clue where we are or where we're going or why!"

"That's because you don't need to know! Now shut up." Six yells as she uses her telekinesis to put the sack back over my head and I keep quiet.

When we stop there's a lot of groaning about how long the trip was. I stay seated in the back and waited for someone to unchained me or tell me something. It feels like it takes a long time for anyone to remember I'm even here.

Meanwhile I here Nine say "There are way too many stairs in this house. If you need me I'll on the second floor with the TV and the refrigerator!"

But Six and Marina bring up "well there is no food here. And so if you want any you go shopping and you get it."

Nine again "Well where's the nearest grocery store?" Six answers "two hours in that direction." Nine complains again "but we just came from there! Why didn't we stop on the way?" "because it's closed until tomorrow!" Marina informs him. After that, I don't hear him again.

I don't know where we are exactly but I'm guessing it's late and I know it's cold. Someone comes in and starts to undo the chains. I don't know who it is until they speak.

Typical nine "What the FUCK do I do with these?" John calls out answering "hold on Nine!" I just sit and listen. Eventually, I feel the chains being undone and somebody walks me up and around stairs and hallways until I hear a door open and I walk through. The sack is taken off my head and the door is closed before I even turn around.

This room is smaller than the other but similar in characteristics. No window just a bed. I sit and lay down and automatically fall asleep. Hoping I'll get answers in the morning.
