I opened my eyes to nothing. Everything was black. I heard muffled voices, but they seemed far off, so I knew I was alone. But where? I tried to open my mouth to yawn, but I felt something cutting into my cheek. The gag. I was obviously blind folded too. I wiggled my arms. Bound. My feet too.

The voices grew louder, until the seemed to be in the same room. I herd a door slam and footsteps coming towards me. I felt some hands untying the gag and blind fold. I opened my eyes to blinding light. I blinked a couple times before my eyes adjusted. I moved my jaw a little bit too. I saw a man standing next to me.

"Hello" he said in a strong Australian accent.

I didn't answer. This guy was crazy if he thought I was going to talk to him.

He sighed. "Look kid, your here whether you like it or not. Deal with it. You might as well make the most of what time you have left."

I snorted. We kidnapped you. Have fun, go eat some ice cream or something before we kill you. Uh huh, sure. I stared at him. I could tell it made him uncomfortable because he cringed. He scowled and walked out of the room, his shoes clicked on the floor. I chuckled to myself.

I was left alone for about a minute before another guy walked in.

"Hey, chick. Listen up, you got like maybe a day or so? If you don't want to do anything, fine. But don't sit here like a wet blanket making us all grumpy or whatever." he snarled.

"Yeah, cause this is all my fault! I didn't tie myself up. You can't expect me to be all happy and stuff when I'm about to die! Your pretty whacked up if you think that's gonna happen. Remember, murder and kidnapping are illegal and if I ever get out you can be dang sure I'm gonna press charges." I threatened.

The guy became wide-eyed. He ran out and started talking fast to the Australian dude. Begging for my release? Maybe. Telling him to kill me now? Almost definite.

The Australian guy came in. He looked me in the eye. "Look kid, you can die now. Or you can stay here. Forever."

So tempting. Not. I smirked and spit. Right in his eye.
