What will it take to find you?

It's been a while since we spoke last, echoed a distinct but clear voice. The thug who had captured Eric must have beaten him into unconsciousness which he had recovered from slowly. He regretted that he extended an olive branch to the same person who had wanted him dead. I can't believe you would do this to me, he cursed under his breath. He was badly bruised and managed to raise his face to the blinding light which pierced his face. You thought you were smart, he continued. Back in college, you were everyone's sweet heart and I had to slave for you and when I asked for just a little favour, what do you do? You refuse blatantly. He drew closer and held the seat where Eric was bound with chains and was blindfolded. He knew it was his childhood friend now turned enemy, he struggled to break free all to no avail then his blindfold was removed. Steve gave a mischievous laughter and bellowed. There's no escape for you. You think so, came a voice from behind. It sounded feminine and commanding and the next minute he saw himself sprawling on the floor in whining in pains as he growled Get him! never let them escape. Eric was surprised at first, but before he could understand what was happening, he was in a truck at a very high speed. The face he saw left him confused. Magdalene! how come? He was filled with questions and no answers were forthcoming, then he decided to end this madness before it got any worse. Can someone start telling me what on earth is going on? I attended gym classes, came a reply. How does it answer my question?. l knew you as frail and weak not rough and rascally. The car halted, people change she spat. She never meant for any of this to happen but it was her friends life in danger and she couldn't stand by and watch things get bad if not worse. It was a dark and long night. I will explain, but now Steve's goons are everywhere and they are looking for you. I need to get you to safety. Eric sighed and calmed down wondering what there was to explain when his childhood friend was on his neck what a betrayal. It's true that we had a fight but that's not enough to want me dead , he said to no one particularly.
