Stranger Danger [Ddlg]

(2) Is this real life?

I hear noises but I don't know where they are coming from. I try to open my eyes but they ache and I can barely lift them before they fall back down again. Every muscle in my body feels tired and worn out. How long have I been sleeping? The sounds get louder. It sounds like people are arguing. It's two guys but I cant hear what they're saying. I try to roll over but then I feel hands on me. "Shhhh. Go back to sleep. Everything's okay," says a soothing Male voice with their hand on my back. Before I know it om drifting back to sleep.

I wake up in a babys crib but a huge one. It's pink with pretty white bows all around it. Am I in a dream? I rub the foggness out of my eyes and sit up. The last thing I can remember is waiting on Jace at the gas station. Shit. I remember everything now. I remember how they took me. I squeeze my eyes shut and hope that Jace has told the cops I'm missing. I doubt they'll ever find me though. I don't even know where I am. I open my eyes and look around the room I'm in. The walls are all covered in pink and there is a pink unicorn sitting in a rocking chair. This must be a nursery room but where are the kids? I climb out of the crib which was harder than it looked and I try to open one of the windows in the room. It doesn't budge. Sigh. I'm startled as the door begins to open and I scrunch myself up in the corner with my hands over my eyes. I'm too afraid of what's coming into the room. I hear footsteps approach me and then I feel the presence of someone kneeling in front of me.

"Hey kiddo, I'm Dominic. What about you?" he says a husky male voice. When I don't move he frowns and days, "It's okay to uncover your eyes. I'd never hurt such a sweet little girl like you."

Little girl?? What is that even suppose to mean? Maybe they think I'm younger than what I actually am. I do dress a little younger and wear my hair in pigtails but I'm still seventeen.

I peak through my hands at the man speaking to me. He has shiny red hair and blue kind eyes. His muscles are big. Way to big for me or even most of other guys to compete with. He looks like a giant. I've never seen a guy look so big and tall where I'm from. I don't even think he's human. The whites of his eyes are actually black and his ears are pointed. It almost seems like he means no harm. "W-Why am I h-here?" I whisper. The man sighs and says, "Well you're here to be my little girl. Ever since I saw the way the people at the orphanage treated such a sweet girl like you I knew you had to be mine." He saw the way they treated me? Oh no. That means he must have saw the beatings too. I tear up and he moves a hand towards me to wipe my tear making me flinch. He quickly moves his hand away. "Shit," he says under his breath, "I mean sorry. I didn't mean to scare you. Promise." I don't know why but something inside of me is saying to trust him. It's like he wants to protect me from the bad people at the orphange. No. I can't trust him. I don't know him so he could be exactly like them, or even worse.

I kick him in the balls and make a run towards the door as he grunts and falls over. When I get out of the room I run down the hallway and down the stairs looking for an exit. This house is huge. If they're this rich could have just bought someone instead of kidnaping. I hear footsteps behind me getting closer so I turn to look behind me and I run into something big and hard, making me fall on the floor with a loud thud.

Looking up I see that it's the first man i met at the gas station. The one who helped kidnap me. He looks pretty strong but the red hair guy looks like he could take double his size. Even with his smaller size he still seems too big to be human. He chuckles and says, "You're gonna have your hands full with this one," looking up from me to the red headed guy standing behind me. I think he said his name is Dominic. "Yea it'll be tough but I know she's gonna be perfect," he says running his hands through his hair.

I'm so shocked I don't know what to do. Should I try and run again? If I couldn't lose one of them then I definitely couldn't lose two. I decide I should try anyways but then I feel a sting in my shoulder and I'm falling asleep again.

I wake up in a hospital crib and I'm wearing a blue gown. My muscles feel all achy and I can't lift my head from the bed. I open my eyes and see two doctors over me. "She's awake," one of them announces. She gives me bottle full of liquid and I take it and gulp it down. I'm so thirsty that I dont care what it is at least it's something. When i finish drinking I look at the bottle and see the leftover baby formula inside. I'm not even disgusted. I feel like it almost taste good. The doctor takes the bottle away from me and wiped my mouth clean. I try to speak but all that comes out are sounds. She smiles down at me, "Your speech will come back slowly if you practice it but it's still not a guarantee." I began to cry out of fear to what these people have done to me. I wonder if they took out my tongue or if they did anything else cruel. There must be a reason why I can't sit up by myself or talk. I probably can't walk either. My legs feel like jello. "Aw no need to cry," says the lady doctor. She leaves and comes back with a tray of something that smells like baby food. I cry even louder. All I want to do is to go home.

There is a man that came with the lady this time. It's Domnic. I screech and wiggle myself under the covers. I doubt he'll be nice to me after I kicked him in the nuts. I feel hands around me as he picks me up and holds me like a baby. I try to yell at him not to hurt me but nothing comes out but babbling. "Aw, you're so cute," he says showing his pearly whites, "How about we take you home and get your tummy all stuffed?" I shake my head as best as I could. No way I'm going home with this strange alien man!

He carries me outside and walks toward his shiny, red jeep. Buckling me up in the baby car seat, he gives me a kiss on the forehead. "My sweet angel," he says before walking to the front and getting into the passenger seat. Another man jumps into the driver seat and we take off.

"How does it feel finding your little girl?" the man ask Dominic. "It feels- It feels just amazing. I can't believe we actually got her. I was beginning to think she was never gonna leave the orphanage," Dominic replied.

I try to scream at him but fail. How does kidnapping an innocent girl feel good? He's bonkers. I start kicking the armrest. "Aw, what a cranky baby," says Domnic turning around to put a binky in my mouth. I think to spit it out but sucking on it feels so soothing it makes me want to curl up and sleep. I look around at the roads we're passing while drowsy. I don't notice any road signs and they all seem to be in a different language. Either that or they did something to me 20/20 vision too. Finally the car stops as we pull up to a house.
