My friends (and Leya) and I sit in a circle. It’s actually been quiet for awhile. I’m pretty sure everyone is trying to figure out where we are.
Making us jump, Leya shouted, “Where the heck are we?!” I spoke too soon. It’s not a surprise she’d give up on thinking first.
Matt and I lock eyes. It’s time to spill the beans. I decide to speak up first.
“We’re in prison. Don’t ask me what prison because I don’t know.”
They soak this in.
“How do you know?” Alex asks, not totally believing it.
Matt spoke this time. “This, uh, man, I guess, came by and Christina asked what was going on and he said ‘The prisoners are not allowed to speak to us’. That can only mean one thing, bro.” He pauses for dramatic effect. “We’re in prison.”
“Well” said Sally. We all look at her. “Why would they put us in a cell like this?” She looks around the room in disgust.
We ponder that. “I have no clue. Maybe they’re just sick people.” I suggest
“No kidding.” Says Leya, sarcastically.
I ignore her. This is not the time to be starting a fight. We sit in silence, thinking. I think about how my life is screwed. I mean, prison?! What did I do that would get me in jail?
“What a hellhole.” Alex says out of the blue.
That’s when everything came back to me! I remember the party, getting drunk, going inside Vector’s house, and entering a metal door which Vector said lead to…
“G-guys.” I say, my voice cracking. “I know w-where we are.”
They turn to me with hope. “Where?”
I take a deep breath. “Do you remember Victor’s house? The tall guy with the beard? Remember when he opened that metal door?”
My friends first stare at me in confusion, but realization dawned on their faces.
Sally gasps. “We’re in….”
“Hell.” I finish for her.
We stare at each other with horror. This explains what that deformed man was and why this room looks like it came out of a B rated horror movie.
Suddenly, Leya laughs.
“You’d expect me to believe we’re actually in Hell?! That’s just a bunch a crap!”
“Well, where do you think we are, Leya!!?” Yells Alex, finally having enough. Wow, this is new. He never yells at Leya.
