You're dead.

Shut up, I'm not dead.

Yeah, you are.

Stop!

I shake my thoughts out, holding my head. I whip my head around, seeing my surroundings. I see two bodies, both passed out or dead. I was surrounded by concrete walls, and one barred window.

I check the bodies pulses, checking that they were alive. And they were, thankfully. I flip them over, just enough to see their faces. Ones a boy, the other being a girl. The boy seemed oddly familiar.

You know him.

No I don't.

Yeah, he was-

I got snapped out of my thoughts when the metal door slammed open. The two woke up, immediately getting the fact that they were kidnapped. The scrawny man walked closer to us, grabbing the girl first, and bringing her out, not saying a word.

"Hi." I say to the boy, assuming we'd be here for a while. "Hi." He replies, sounding traumatized. "I'm Blakelyn, but you can call me Blake." I say, slightly under my breath.

"Luke." he says blankly. I open my mouth, not knowing what I was going to say next. In a way, I was saved by distant screaming. we whip our heads to the door. I look back at him, "we have to get out of here."

"No shit." He snaps. "Woah someone didn't take their nap.." I mumble, mostly to myself. "How?" He says. "Make a run for it. When he opens the door, let's the other girl in, if he doesn't grab me or you, grab the door when he leaves. Then, we'll find our way. Can't be that hard, right?" I say.

"Yeah, not THAT hard." He rolls his eyes, looking around.

"What, you gotta better plan?" I snap back. "No." He says slowly. We sit in silence as I mess with my bracelet.

Boy was this going to be hard.
