         Damn it! My head hurts, it feels like all of the blood in my body is rushing in my head. There is also this stinging pain at the back.

When I opened my eyes, I couldn't see a thing. Have I gone blind? No... no no no this can't be happening. I tried to move but I couldn't. What the hell is going on? My hands are tied to each other, I tried to pull the rope apart as hard as I could, but to no avail. I'm not sitting that's for sure, but I am not standing either. I can't feel any land below my feet, I tried to move my legs but they are tied up too. This only has one possible explanation....

Don't think about it, I thought to myself.

"So... what should we do?", I heard a distant voice.

"Let's just wait."

"No, the girl is trouble."

"You shouldn't have brought her here, it's too soon."

"It wasn't my idea. It was the best opportunity, she was alone!"

"This is not what we were ordered!"

"We have to do something."

"Oh! Boss is going to be so unhappy."

"I think it's the best thing, let's use her as a bait and kill Jack."

Kill Jack! My stomach dropped. Who are these people? I can't let them kill him. I have to get out of here. There were many voices arguing with each other. This is not good. Those people still continued to bicker. They mentioned killing Jack over and over, was this really happening? I wanted them to stop, I wanted to shout, I wanted to beg for them to stop talking about him like that. So you must be wondering why I didn't do anything.

Well, I did tell you how I was tied and also blindfolded thank god I wasn't blind. Plus they had put a duck tape on my mouth. Judging by how nauseating I feel, and like all the food would just come out of my mouth any second, I can say for a fact I'm hanging up side down. You know how I thought that not thinking about it would help, I guess it just couldn't stay out of my mind.

Now you must want to know how I got myself into this situation. I'll tell you but it wasn't my fault. 

It all started when I was at Felicity's place learning how to shoot.

*5 hours ago*

"Wow! She's just terrible." Glen exclaimed, after I finished practicing for an hour. Okay fine, I know I couldn't aim at a single bottle and I accidentally shot Felicity's new mongoose, no it's not dead we were practicing with fake bullets, it just kept running around. The mongoose was like asking to be shot. It had that one coming, but there's no need to be that rude. I mean who pets a freaking mongoose they are just wild and creepy... sort of.

"See, didn't I tell you." Jack said, smiling as if he was right and he proved the whole world wrong. Yeah, maybe he was right but still. The guys gave each other a high five and that only made me even more angry.

"You know what screw this, I can protect myself. I don't need some special weapon and I sure as hell don't need you." I said, pointing my finger in Jack's direction. I walked past them and went inside the house. 

I think they sensed how angry I was and thought it would be better not to approach me. At least some thing went right today. Felicity came in the room waving a white flag in her hand. "Peace?" She asked, I gave her a small smile. She sat down across me and returned a smile.

"I'm sorry about your pet." I told her and looked away from her. I didn't want to look her in the eye when she forgives me.

"It's not a problem, Butkik is sleeping anyway."
