I opened my eyes, ears ringing and head throbbing, desperately looking around to see what had just happened. Moments ago I was walking home from school when I turned a corner and suddenly someone grabbed me and covered my mouth with a rag. The last I remember is squirming trying to breath, but the rag had something in it that made me pass out.
I felt the ground rumbling and suddenly it jerked to the side and I flew for a moment before slamming into a hard metal wall. All the pain I felt before this was nothing compared to right now, my back feeling as the whole thing purple with bruses. I lay there for a while slowing recovering my vision and hearing. After what seemed like an internaty, I could see feel and hear. I was in a trailer, moving fairly fast, my wrists, ankles, and mouth had been tied very tightly, as tho the rope was burning through my skin. The trailer had a bunk bed, a small kitchen area with a small table bolted to the floor. I had been thrown in here all tied up thrashing around like a ball in a football game. Everytime the trailer harshly turned or stopped, I would bang into the hard furniture corners.
After a long time of rolling around, hitting the same metal table legs, smashing against the corner of the cabinet and bed legs, the trailer came to a fierce halt. The engine switched off and I heard a car door open and slam shut. My heart beated fastly and sweat dripping down my face, 'Was he coming to get me?' I panicked thinking my life is over. The door to the trailer swooshed open with a quick creak. My body froze in fear, my eyes shut closed and my body in a paralyzed like state. The footsteps of heavy shoes came closer and closer till they stopped directly above me.
