2.

   My name is Jennifer, I am a good girl. I live in Colorado. I love my parents and family. I just started my summer vacation, and I love it! This upcoming year I will be a junior in high school, sucks for me. I have brown hair and brown eyes. I fall in love so quick; I guess that’s the thing with us brunettes. The only true love in my life is food; it treats me right and makes me happy. I have friends but my dad does not approve of them. My mother passed away when I was nine, so my dad worked twenty-four-seven to keep a roof over my head and buy me all the little girl toys. Did I mention my dad is stinking rich? Donald Trump has nothing on my dad. I have a car, it is a yellow bug, I love driving it around, mostly in the mountains and hills…it’s the beauty that excites me.

   This weekend I decided to drive a little ways out of town, to an awesome camping ground that overlooks my entire town. I did not know of anything bad was going to happen to me, I was innocent. The worst thing I thought of was going to happen was I run out of gas, or meet a bear.

    I was getting prepared for the drive and I got my grey sweater and wrapped it around my body, I grabbed all my camera supplies and my camera. I went down stairs not trying to make a sound, so my dad won’t hear me. But I failed at that.

“Jenny! Where you going now sweetie?” My dad said putting down his newspaper and looking up at me.

“I’m just going for a ride to get some nature photos.”

“Okay, just please don’t stay out late! Be back an hour before the sun goes down.” He said.

“Fine-fine dad, I will be back as soon as I can.” I said shoving on my shoes and leaping to the door and then to my car.

   I was finally alone. I love the freedom I have; I turned the radio on and blasted the music. The song ‘Rich Girl’ started to play by a band named Hall and Oats, or something like that. I sang along to the song, I was practically screaming my head off!

   I reached my destination, a small camping ground that oversees my town below. When I drove in the camping area, a black truck drove out of the lot, I guess they were having a date night or something. Once I got out of my car, I walked to a picnic table and climb on top of it and took a look at my beautiful town.

   I took many pictures of the place; I could see my house, and the café I go to. Then I heard a sound of a truck motor roaring in m direction.

I looked behind my back and saw the same black truck that was going out coming back in the camp ground. Maybe they left something? I stood still and kept taking pictures of the land. Then a car door slammed, I looked over my shoulder again, then a really well built man got out of the truck. He glanced at me while he closed the truck door. I looked at my car and planned a little escape in my mind; luckily my car was more close to me than the stranger was. The sun was setting down in the rolling hills, and the twinkling lights of the town started to light up the valley walls. It was so beautiful, I can’t believe that I live here, I am so blessed. I now could hear footsteps walking toward me, the gravel and autumn leaves clashed together under the feet of the stranger. I got goose-bumps, as the person got closer and closer to me.

“Hey there.” A man with a deep raspy voice said beside me, then in front of me.

“Hello.” I said.

“What is a tiny girl like you doing out here in the deep forest?”

“I take photos of nature, I am an armature photographer.” I said trying not to give too much information.

“That’s cool, my name is Todd, and you are?” He was standing a few feet in front of me with his hands in his pockets swaying back and forth.

“Jenna, short for Jennifer.”

  “Well Jenna, you seem very nice. Do you have a boyfriend?” Todd asked.

“Well that’s a little personal…but no.” I said wrapping my arms around me.

“Oh.”

   The stranger Todd sat on the picnic table. I was still standing on the picnic table holding my camera. He was in a black v-neck shirt.

“Well, I’ll tell you what, you and me and should hook up.” He said stretching his arms out.

“Oh, I am not allowed to date.”

“Really? How old are you?”

“I am 17. My dad doesn’t allow for me to date.” I said nervously.

“Yeah, well who’s you’re dad?”

“Jackson Gardner.”

“Ah, so you’re a rich girl…why don’t you let me be your dad for tonight.”Todd said.

“No.” I said straight up.

“Come on, let’s go…just for tonight.”

“I said no, I don’t know you! Because you look like a rapist!” I said loudly.

“Well that’s what I am.” He gave a deep chuckle.

   Todd looked over his shoulder, back at the truck. Then all four door of the truck opened up and made a loud bang when it closed. Todd grabbed my legs and yanked me down on to my butt on the table. I screamed at the top of my lungs.”Help! Help! Help! ” I started kicking with my entire mite.

Someone pushed me against the table while Todd held my legs down. I started throwing punches; I had no clue what I was hitting. Then one of the guys from the truck opened my mouth and shoved something deep in my throat. His entire hand was in my mouth to make sure I swallowed the substance. I had almost vomited it up. I struggled for five more minutes, all I could see was five men standing around me, then my vision began to get blurry, oh my gosh am I going blind? What the hell just happened? I laid there on the table like I was paralyzed; I couldn’t even open my mouth or keep my eyes open.  All I could hear was the men mumbling around me. Holy crap what are they saying? My mind was in place but my body wasn’t. Then I closed my eyes and I couldn’t open them again.
