The Neighbor

"Ahhh.. STOP IT!"

I opened my eyes to see what had woken me from my unconscious state, it was a knife. He cut my arm deep. I could barely stand the sight of it. It made me gag. I felt nauseous, meanwhile my captor was laughing... laughing at my pain. My face with a permanent look of fear, tears started to fall down my face uncontrollably.

"Haha.. you should see the look on your face, it's priceless."

Is something wrong with him, he's psychotic, a maniac. As he finished laughing he got up and went to another room, I was considering getting up and running for the door but my hands and feet were tied. Once he came back I saw a roll of duct tape and a cloth in his hands. I started to panic, my heart rate rising, I screamed my lungs out hoping someone would hear me. He then pulled his knife out of his pocket and pressed it against my lips, and I shut my mouth.

"If your not going to behave then I, your gracious host, will have to get rid of you. You got that?"

"Y-yes.."

He put the knife away and put the cloth in my mouth with a piece of tape over my mouth. He then proceeded to stare into my eyes, it was terrifying, his eyes were like a void of darkness. He left the room once more and came back with a rifle in hand. The world started spinning, my eye sight was narrowing, and the only thing I could hear was my heart beat.

"What's wrong? You don't look as brave as you were when you broke into my home." he said with a wide smile.

The only thoughts going through my head were," Am I going to die? I'm not ready, I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry." I couldn't do anything, couldn't move, couldn't talk... all I could do was hope. He started to step closer raising the gun slowly, I shut my eyes trying to prepare myself. Tears were streaming down my face again as I waited.

"Sh sh... it's okay, I'm not going to kill you."

I opened my eyes, he put the gun down next to me. He put his hand on my head and pet my hair like a dog. I'm a way I was relieved. I let out the breath I was holding and relaxed.

"Well at least not for now."

What? I tensed up again, does that mean I'm going to die? Is he just keeping me alive for his amusement? My body once again filled with fear. All of a sudden, I saw him take a syringe out of a drawer and he jabbed it into my neck. It was painful and a few seconds after he pulled it out I felt drowsy. The last thing I saw was his smile, before the world went dark again.
