My Biggest Fear

Chapter 40

Through every situation, remember you're not alone.

Erick's P.O.V

My whole body felt heavy, the heaviness held me down.

The pain I was feeling, made its way from the back of my head.

I now was memorizing the events that took place earlier.

First Maria gets kidnapped and then we were all at Akeem's 'workplace'. I can  remember wanting to get some fresh air, but instead of staying, I made my way to the cemetery.

When at the cemetery, I saw something..or someone rather strange so I decided to follow them. Then I can remember at one point being hit in the head really hard and then I passed out.

I snapped my eyes open to examine my surroundings and it takes the exact form of an abandoned warehouse.

But why would someone come here?

Why would someone have me here in this state?

I noticed that I was tied with ropes, from my hands down to my legs.

I tried pulling myself out but it was no use, I was trapped.

Oh bloody hell! I sighed.

Maria is gone, my friends are all worried and now I've also been taken.

I'm not entirely worried about the condition that I'm in, I'm just so scared for Maria, my love.

I scanned the room, there was a light bulb above my head but it wasn't shinning bright, it was dull. I was seated on a chair in the middle of the room with my body tied. The walls were covered in blood stains and my heart raced a bit.

The walls weren't exactly how you'd expect them to be, because everywhere you looked there was either a small or big crack.

At the corner of the room there were lots of boxes. Lots of Stolen Merchandise I guess.

I could see insects moving across the room. Rats, bugs, flies etc.

I'm so stupid!

How could I let this happen? I should have stayed.

Now my friends have something else to  worry about. They have to worry about finding me if they realize that I'm also missing.

It still comes down to the question and my suspicion rose.

Did the person that I saw take me here?

My focus now went to the door that I assumed was being open.

Two wen walked in first and took their places beside me and I looked up at them confused.

Footsteps now approached the door and I held my gaze there till I saw who it was.

As the person stepped in he smirked at me but I held a serious face because in that moment I could feel my past meeting my present. 

I was staring deeply at a man who I have not forgotten.

I never have and I never will.

I didn't know how to feel as we both looked at each other.

Was I angry? Yes I was.

He took a step closer to  me and my heart picked up its pace and my anger increased.

He smiled devilishly at me as he stopped in front of me.

"Hello Erick, it's nice to see you my son". He said.

"I'm not your son you asshole". I spat back.

"Why are you so angry?". He asked smirking.

"Don't act so innocent, what a good plan to get me here". I glared at him.

"I promised that I'll end you son, and I intend to keep that promise". He said, his tune threatening.

"We'll see about that". I told him coldly.

I was looking at the devil.

I was looking at the man who took away my happiness.

I was looking at the man that raped and killed my mother.

I was looking at Lincoln.
