"Hello? Is someone there?" Or something? My mind adds silently.
Tap tap tap...tap...tap tap tap...tap...
Ok maybe it's just the cargo crates moving.
Tap tap tap...tap...tap tap tap...tap...
Nope! That's not the crates, some things definitely moving around.
Dammit! I can't see a thing, and the blue haired lackey took my only light source. So I try again.
"Hello? Is someone there?"
Tap tap tap...tap...
Ok maybe that's form of communication.
"If you understand tap once for no and tap twice for yes."
Tap tap...
Ok, I'm not sure if that makes me feel better.
"So you can understand me?"
Tap tap...
Right, well this was at least something.
"I didn't see you in this...ah...cell before the lights went out, are you are in here with me."
Tap tap...
Oh goodie
"Are you a prisoner in another cell?"
Tap tap...
"Ok, can you see me?"
Tap tap...
Shit! I can feel the panic building. I can't see anything, even though I'm desperately looking for any sign of them being friend or foe.
"Are you going to hurt me?" I ask this holding my breath.
...tap...
Releasing my breath I sink to my knees with relief, my fear beginning to ease but I start to feel dizzy and light headed. I'm so tired from this mental rocket coasters that I can no longer keep myself upright or awake. Exhaustion takes hold and everything went black.
