You can always feel the gaze of someone following you. You can feel them watching your every move. Waiting for the right time. For the perfect moment to make his move.
I speeded up my paste knowing that they where hot on my tail. Knowing that they could catch up to me at any moment.
I hadn't been the exact good girl but i didn't have many enemies since no one knew who i was. I took a glimpse back but saw only the darkness. I speeded up my paste but took silent steps. I heard the footsteps following behind. They took firm and calculated steps. As if they had already planned this for so long. My house seemed so far yet so close. The lights of my home where able to be seen from where i was but i wasn't sure if i could reach them.
A block away from home.
A block away.
A block away.
That block away. That block away was the one i never got to walk.
I felt strong arms wrap around me. I knew it was more than one man since i was caged between them. I didn't even have anytime to react when i felt a liquid substance being placed in my neck. Another strong arms rapped behind me. They lifted me up bridal style. I wasn't gonna go down with a fight. I forced my vision i barely could make out his facial features. I reach out to place my hand on his cheek his body first tensed but the relaxed a second later. I dug my nail hard into his cheek and down his throat. A wet substance hit the tips of my nail i knew i had left a scar. He hissed and tightened his hold on me. His finger nails digging into my side. It was gonna leave a mark for sure. I tried to make another move or a fight but i was getting weaker. The darkness around me started to consume me in it. Soon everything was dark and my body gave up.
It was all a dream. It was all dream or i hoped it would of been.
I opened my eyes only to be received with darkness. I was tied to chair and i knew i wasn't the only one since i could hear the faint breathing of others. Steps where heard nearing me. The lights flicked on blinding me momentarily. I swear why couldn't they just of left the light on. They always have to do the stupid lights off light on thing. Assholes. Men started to fill the plain room. All staring hard.
"Alexandra your.. Your okay" a familiar voice said breaking down. I turned to the direction of the voice and saw Jasmine. Tears streaming down her face. I looked in the other direction and saw Madeline. I couldn't turn back and see if Jennifer was here. "Jas. Jasmine see if Jennifer is by your side" she sniffed a little before responding. "She's.. She's still knocked out". I nodded. We where all here. The question was why? No one would talk. The men that had arrives would just stare at us. I was getting a headache of over thinking why we where here.
"Are any of you gonna talk or just keep staring?!" i snapped rudely. The didn't respond. I was gonna ask once again but that's when the door slammed open.
"Are you gonna talk or did you just come to stare like the rest?" jas nudged me with her elbow telling me that it was smart to be talking back to these men. It probably wasn't the best idea but i was tired of sitting in this uncomfortable chair and being stared at. Jennifer and Madeline where still knocked out to even notice what was going on while jasmine would squirm in her seat from the intense gaze we where given.
"You shouldn't be talking back like if you had any power over this situation" he said in a strong voice. Yeah he was right but i wasn't gonna let him know that. "You might have the power over this situation but not over me" i replied carelessly. He fisted his hands tightly but his face showed no emotion what so ever. He turned fully to me so i could see him perfectly. He had claw marks on his cheek going down his neck. He was the one who had carried me. "Guess i did leave s good mark" a sly smirk appeared on my face. His eyes growing darker by the second. I heard a grown beside me and knew Madeline was waking up soon we heard another and knew that. Jennifer had also woken up.
"Good now that your all awake we can talk" he said smiling sickly. "The best friends. Four girls with no job but yet lived a life everyone wanted." he stated. It was true we all grew up together and we where always best friends. Neither of us had jobs but we had are ways in getting money.
"Jennifer parents abondonded her because they couldn't be responsible for a child. Poor two year old Jennifer." he walked around us. Taunting us with our past. "Madeline parents died in a horrible fire incident. All because the baby wanted Christmas lights. Poor baby" he cooed sickly. Madeline eyes glassed with tears. She always remember that day. Always blaming herself for it. "Jasmine her parents took her to the park to play but poor little baby didn't know that her parents would abandon her. She always thought that they would come back for but they never did" he stopped walking around us and stopped directly in front of me. He kneeled infront of me and reached out to touch my face. I pulled back as if his touch burnt. "All stories are sad but the baby Alexandra was the one that touched my heart the most." he was still kneeling in front of me. He stared at me intently trying to find any emotion in my eyes. He found none. I kept my eyes cold. "The baby Alexandra never knew what the love of parents could be. What was to have a parent. Poor baby grew up alone. Getting into trouble and getting what she wanted. She never asked who her parents might of been or if they still lived. She grew up to find love in her friendship of other abandoned girls like her. Jasmine Madeline and Jennifer. They all came to together to be a perfect team. They all got what they wanted no matter the cost. To bad that it all came to an end" his finger nails dug into my thigh. He wanted a reaction out of me. I knew he wanted one but he didn't receive one.
"You know it was kind of you and all to remember us about our past and all but these chairs are uncomfortable and i would like to get the point of this" my voice dripping with sarcasm. "And i thought you would of loved for someone to remember your past but i guess i was wrong" he sighed getting up. "Untie Alexandra only" he ordered. A man came next to and untied my ropes. I stretched out a little before standing up. "I never told you that you could stand" he said forcing me to sit down. "I never asked" i shot back.
"Shut up alex or you gonna get us killed" Jennifer said annoyed. "If the wanted to kill they would of started hours ago but what they want is something from us. Or am i wrong?" i asked facing the scar man. He nodded. They wanted something from all of us but i didn't know what men like them wanted with us.
"You will all work for me. Once your job is done you may leave all to your somewhat normal life's" he said calmly. "And that would be?" Madeline asked. Curiosity lacing in her voice. We where all curious. I was curious but i knew he wouldn't tell us his full plan.
"You will all just wait and stay here. You will never leave our sight" he untied them all and stood there watching us carefully. He didn't tell us our purpose of being here or why he brought us here if we weren't needed at the moment. "So we are just gonna stay like prisoners till you decide what where gonna do?" i asked. He nodded. "No thanks. I think i will go home and forget about this" i said trying to walk past him. Key word trying. He grabbed me by the wrist pulling mean into him. His height towered over me in a intimating way. "Who said you could leave?" he whispered into my ear. "Who said i wanted to stay" he was caught off guard when i kneeled his family jewels. He let go of me a groaned in pain. Everyone stared at me in shock. He was kneeling down and i took the opportunity to jump over him and grab him by the neck pulling him back. "Don't touch me" i hissed. I never liked people touching me and didn't like to be challenged. Although i loved a good challenge. In a blink of an eye a men had Madeline Jasmine and Jennifer with a gun pointing at there heads. I let go of him knowing that i was gonna loose this one. Just this one.
He groaned a little more before getting up and grabbing me. "This will not go by unpunished" his lips hovering the curve of neck. I felt a strong pinch in my neck. Once again i was consumed by darkness.
