Suggested Song: No Peace At All by Aldous Harding
Adeline's POV
"Hey!... Hey! Wake up!"
My eyes slowly peal open as I feel my shoulder shake violently. Two masked figures were standing in front of me, one pointing a gun, the other shaking my shoulder.
"Hey! Wakey, wakey" A woman in a pink bunny mask aggressively says as she snaps her fingers in my face to grab my attention
"Whe-...Where am I?" I ask through a pained voice, shaking my head slightly to regain clear vision
My hands were tied behind my back. Rope around my wrists cut deep into the skin. As I try to feel around with my bound hands, a much bigger hand gently moves to hold mine. I then notice someone tied behind me on a chair facing the opposite way.
"Klaus?" I say, trying to turn enough to see who was there
"Shut up!" The woman says, taking the pistol in her hand and smacking me across the face. A pulsating pain surged through my face as the butt of the gun connected with my skin, close to my eye.
I let out a small whimper as I move back up to face her, warm blood slowly trickling from my nose. I was in pain. My heart raced as I tried to adjust my wrist so the ropes wouldn't cut deeper, but it was no use. As I struggled more and more, I felt the person tied behind me rub their thumb gently over my hand to calm me as they held my hand softly.
"Where's Five?" The woman interrogated, now pointing the pistol in her hand at my face
As I spit blood out of my mouth, the two jumped back "I don't know..." I breathe out, angering the two with my uncooperative answer
Once more, she hit me across the face with a steady pistol whip. I yelped as the gun connected with the same tender spot as before.
"Where... Is... Five!?" She yelled, much more aggressive, her partner adjusting to point the gun more in my face
"How should I know where that little prick is?!" I yell back in their face "He told me I was too dumb to know anything!"
"You must know something!?" My other captivator yells across the room
A man and a woman...
"No!" I say through a pained, heavy sigh "I know nothing..."
The woman sighs, lowering the gun and looking over to her accomplice. He simply shrugs, lowering his gun as well.
"God damn it!" The woman yells, taking off her mask and throwing it in front of her in frustration
I take note of her appearance, looking her up and down. She walks over to one of the beds, and sits down with a sigh. I hadn't noticed the beds before. I looked around the room more, noticing I seemed to be in a hotel room. I thought for a moment.
Why was I here? And why are these people looking for Five?...
"Can we get something to eat now?" The man whines, taking off his mask too and throwing on the other bed in front of him
"Hazel, we aren't here to eat and screw about!" She says, looking up at the now very disappointed looking man "We are here to get to Five"
He looks down at the floor and thinks for a second "It would be irresponsible to interrogate these two without a good source of stamina. How do they expect us to do our job with out food, huh?" He asks, the woman glaring in his direction
Finally, she gives in. Sighing and standing from the bed "Fine. But at least help me move these two idiots into the closet" She says, gesturing towards us as she adjusts her tightly fitting corset that sat over her suit.
