The Strangers
"Nika~.....wake up~" a strange voice called out to me, but how? I was dead I remember it all, I bleed out onto my kitchen floor. "Nika you need to wake up~" the voice began to come closer and closer until it was practically shouting in my ear, making my ears ring. I clutched my head and fell to the ground begging for it to stop, the voice eventually stopped and I looked up only to be faced with a man around 6'9, pale skin, white eyes, and snow-white hair that was styled into spikes. "W-who are you?" I stammered while trying to stand up "you'll find out soon enough" the man said before disappearing. I woke up out of breath and looked around, I was in the middle of nowhere the woods to be precise, then I realize what had happened and touched my neck frantically, expecting it to be wide open but to my surprise, it wasn't. I sighed heavily and closed my eyes but they shot back open when I heard a huge roar, it didn't sound like any animal I've ever heard in my life and it sounded like it was nearby, so I ran into a nearby bush and hid praying to god that whatever it was didn't find me. I sat there frozen for a few minutes before a huge bird-looking thing ran past the bush at an amazing speed with three men chasing it, screaming swear words. One man caught up to the bird and tackled it to the ground, "fantastic job, Knuckler" A teen around my age said while walking up to the man that was holding down the bird thing down. I couldn't really see their faces but I knew that if they could catch that thing that seems like it was running at 110 mph they must be really athletic and they could help me/tell me where I was. I slowly stood up from the bush and one of the boy/men turned around and looked me dead in my eyes, my heart stopped and I had a bad feeling in my gut. "Hey~ there sexy, lost?" one of the guys said with a smooth tone while walking over to me, his buddies turned around after killing the bird. I slowly backed away as his friends got closer while cleaning their knives. "I-uh can you tell me where I am?" I spoke not taking my eyes off the man. The teenager laughed, licked his lips, and spoke in an alien language. The man that caught the bird then ran over to me and I dashed for the hill. I ran and ran, my lungs felt like they were collapsing and I stopped for a brief moment but that didn't last long because I heard a howl not that far behind me. I frantically looked for somewhere to hide but couldn't find a hiding spot and they were getting closer by the second. I ran behind a tree and watched as the 2 men ran past me but didn't see the teenager. "Found you~" when I turned around I met a pair of orange eyes and a huge smile.
My eyes began to water, this is how it ends because of my stupidity I'm going to die again. I closed my eyes and braced myself for the worst but it didn't come, I opened my eyes to see the teen having trouble breathing, and my hand balled into a fist. I was stunned by my action but didn't stop until I was stabbed on my right side, I groaned in pain and looked to my right to see a sharped bone in my side and one of the men grinning. I released my fist dropping the boy, as he fell to the ground I heard a whimper and then coughing. My vision became a blur and I fainted.
I woke up and tried to sit up but stopped when I heard the sound of chains, I looked down to see that my legs were chained to a cement wall and began to panic " It's no use beautiful" I froze and turned in the direction of the voice and there sat a man with stubble on his chin, brown eyes, shaggy blonde hair, tanned skin, and a well-built frame. "Where am I?" I said glaring daggers at the man "calm down you do not need to worry about me but the boy who you almost killed" the man then laughed, walked over to me, bent down, and whispered, "he tends to hold grudges". My blood was boiling 'who were these bastards? and where am I?' the man stood back up when a door opened and the teen boy walked in shooting daggers at me. "Knuckler, the boss is calling you" 'so this is the guy that took down that bird' I thought while looking the man up and down. Knuckler nodded and walked out leaving me an orange-eyed, blue hair, white-skinned teen. The boy walked over to me glaring, "who are you?" the boy said while sitting in a wooden chair, leaning over and resting his chin on his folded hands. " I'm Nika.....Nika Town", the boy looked puzzled like I was speaking another language. He glared at me once again "you're not from here are you?" he said not taking his eyes off me, as soon as those words escaped his lips the door opened, Knuckler and another man came through the frame. The boy whose name I still don't know stood up and walked over to them speaking another language and glancing at me. It began to piss me off.....NONE!!! of my questions have been answered, "Knuckler!" I shouted breaking their attention from their conversation. The new guy looked at me in shock and Knuckler walked over to me, knelt to my level and slapped me across my face, and stood back up "NEVER SPEAK MY NAME LIKE YOU KNOW ME!!" he screamed at me in an almost animistic voice. It took me a minute to process what just happened then something inside me clicked "YOU BASTARD!" I screamed back at him while trying to break free from the chains. All three of them looked at me. Knuckler and the other man walked away leaving me and the teen "you've walked into a wolf's den" the teen spoke before walking away with the other two.
