I was running as fast as I could deeper and deeper into the woods. I had tried screaming, but every time I did only gapes of air came out. Trying to call for him was nearly useless, for he could be anywhere inside these deserted woods. I could no longer breathe and, decided to walk some of the way. As I walked, I tried to gather my thoughts on how this had all begun.
I knew I could no longer walk, for the Stampede of footsteps was approaching. I stood up straight and tried looking past the tall muffled grass to decide which way would lead me to him. It had seemed as if I had not decided fast enough when an army of men grabbed my arms and pulled me away with them. As I was being dragged back with them, they slipped a dimly colored chief hanker over my eyes blinding me.
“This may hurt a little,” deeper voice said, as I felt a small pinch and then fell into the depths of darkness.
When I woke from the dark, I was in a small room, but was not alone for they’re sitting behind me was another figure. I struggled to get out of the chair, but the knots on my wrist cut tighter and tighter as I tried. Grunting with pain, I tried harder to loosen the ropes that enclosed my body.
“Who’s there,” Said the voice that came from behind me. I had not answered and continued my struggle to get loose A few moments later the question was repeated.
“Harry,” I questioned hoping the man I loved would answer back.
“Yes” tears slowly dripped from my eyes, tears of relief. I was determined to let us both free, but first I had to think of a plan, a way out. I looked around the room trying to see if there was a door even maybe a window, but yet there was none. I sat there and searched the room many times trying to look in every corner of every crack until I was to be sure I checked everywhere. All of a sudden an opening in one of the walls began to shift, as a bright light entered the room, blinding my eyes. I tried to stand, but the darkened chains around my waist held me in place. The figure slowly moved behind me and it’s warm breath pressed against the back of my head. They moved their hand to my neck, and I flinched in terror at thought of what they might do. As he put the tape around my mouth I noticed there was another shadow that had been standing by Harry, but I could only see an outline out of the corner of my eye, not enough for me to see who or what it was….
