"Dude, where's that girl?"

"What girl?"

"That girl which we bought here and tied up. She's missing."

"What the hell! Go look for her. She must not leave this place. That little *****,trying to run away from me."

Hearing all this, me and Ian crouched in our hiding positions less than a metre away from where those guys were. One of the guys reached right next to us and kicked a carton. It was only when he went away that I felt relieved. Not completely, but 1% if you could even say that. Ah, life has always been so hard.

Then, I'm not sure what happened but the carton which was hiding us fell and although they couldn't see us,I was sure they knew we were there. We were doomed. I looked at Ian for the last time in case it really was the last time and prayed to God.

The leader of the bad guys came over slowly and peered into our hiding spot. I could say from the look on his face that he was going to eat us up. 

"HA, YOU ***** WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU COULD RUN OFF TO? AND YOU, YOUNG GUY SHOULDN'T YOU BE SITTING AT HOME OBEYING YOUR MAMA'S ORDERS?"

"Leave him alone."I mumbled. Ian looked at me with fear in his eyes and shook his head slightly for a 'don't speak!'.

"What did you say young lady?"

"I SAID LEAVE MY BROTHER ALONE!" The leader guy looked at me startled for a second probably wondering if anyone even had the guts to talk to him like that. Ian looked shook too. He revived himself after a second with which came a huge blow on my face. I could not open my eyes completely now but I still managed to stand up to that loser. He looked at my face like he had lost it.

"What? You already out of your strength? Beat me up all you can. No one's gonna come for me anyway." I faked a smile.

"That's not true. I'm here Em. Stop talking nonsense. Do you seriously wanna get beaten up that bad?" Ian asked.

"Well if that's what they want."

"Look at you. You can't even stand up."

"Hey, what do you guys think, that you're in a movie or something? Quit the dialogues. Let's see who wins the lady."

"NOOOOO...LEAVE ME...DON'T TAKE HER AWAY...EMMAAAAAA!!!"

That was a bad dream. A bad,bad dream. A really bad nightmare. My head still pounds from that dream. I'm just getting comfy in my bed at home. Ah, dad I really miss you. But why does my bed feel so cold and hard. Why does my whole body feel so cold? 

I opened my eyes slowly...

"Wait...WHAT!"
