Chapter 1 : PICTURES

Where am I? What am I doing here, was I sleep walking again? I murmured to myself.

Why am I tied around this support beam? And who is this woman besides me? She's surprisingly very stunning, those eyes melt me, her lips look like the clouds I see in the sky, really soft. Am I dreaming? I said to myself just loud enough to be heard.

"No, you're not dreaming, and thanks for the compliment, and will you please shut up? I'm sleeping cant you see?" She said with a arrogant voice.

Wow, I'm not even that loud, and where are we anyways? Why are we tied and in this stinky storage room? I asked her.

"We've been kidn*pped dumbo, why else would be tied to a beam in a storage room, use your brain." She said to me as she rolled her eyes.

She's arrogant and egoistic, thats for sure. I thought to myself.

30 minutes has passed or so and I was getting bored, I was trying to free myself while the woman besides me was still sleeping. I keep trying to get out until I remember that the ring I was wearing had a small knife in it, It was small but sharp. I then freed myself after a couple minutes of struggle and woke her up.

"Hey! I told you not to disturb me!" She said angrily.

No need to get angry okay? Jeez... Dont you want to escape from these kidnappers? Its our chance to go while they are still not here and aware of our escape.

"Ugh, Fine! Well do you even know where we are and the way to the exit?" spoke like those rich brats from my school.

Just follow me and be quiet.

We walked for a couple of minutes to find the exit to this gigantic building, heck, I'm not even sure if this is a building or not. I thought to myself as I heard a loud horn from a boat. Maybe we are near a port or a dock.

Hey, what's your name anyway? Can I atleast know that? I asked her with a calm voice.

"Its Natalie." She too said with a calm voice, she have seemingly lost her arrogant voice and that annoyimg egoistic attitude of hers.

Not gonna ask my name? I'm Zain if your wondering.

"Okay Zain, why dont we save the talk for later once we get out here before they realize that we have escaped, what do you say?"

You owe me a talk later once we get out of here.

"Alright Zainnnn" Natalie said teasingly

I still did not know where the exit is or if we were getting out alive in this dungeon of a building. We walked and walked accompanied by the silence, I then then spoke.

Hey, uhhh Natalie.. Right? Dont you think its weird that there were nobody guarding us? Or how we still have not passed by a single person around this gigantic structure? Seems a little too convenient dont you think?

I was answered with silence and not a single word left her mouth. Maybe she was tired, or zoning out. Anyways, I did not mind it and continue walking.

"ZAIN! RUN!"

A shout that echoed through my ears a several times and broke the never ending silence. I was zoning out from how sleepy I was, I lost track of time and I dont even know how long I was here, will I even get home, I thought to myself. Finally, a second or two, the words have registered througg my brain, I ran without thinking and followed Natalie.

Hey! Why are we running suddenly? Did you see something?

"Cant you see? Look behind you, there are people chasing us, probably the one that kidn*pped us. Just RUN."

We ran and ran until we met a dead end. Natalie's eyes were filled with fear, she trembled tremendously as they approached slowly. I then suddenly felt a jolt of electricity rushing through my head, my eyesight was getting darker as seconds go by, and finally I was knock out unconscious.

"Zain! Zain! Zain!"

The voice kept ringing, it was annoying, but the voice sounded very angeliclike a melody of a music. I finally opened my eyes to see who's talking. Her appearance is very slim, she had a good figure with a long black hair and I could feel her soft skin as she touch my face under a tree. I tried to speak, but somehow no sound is coming out of my mouth, and I just have realized that her face, I couldn't see it, it was blurred, am I getting blind? I was starting to get nervous when suddenly I was starting to see images, maybe memories, it seems like I was changing places. First in a forest, I could see a fountain with 4 men that I too could not see the faces same as the woman I saw when I woke up. Next was a church, I was surprisingly calm of what was happening, probably because I could not move nor speak. I was showed a church or IT showed me a church, next was a beach. Then once again I saw the same woman staring at me on the beach. What is happening? Who is doing this? And more importantly how did I get here? My head was starting to hurt as it showed me more and more, another after the other, what was the point of this? I closed my eyes to lessen the pain or hoping that closing my eyes would stop it. A minute or two I heared a familiar sound ringing through my ears, it was not a voice nor a song. I once again opened my eyes to see where the ringing sound was coming from.
