Trapped

Im lost, I can’t find my way home. I see a car. I thought it was my mom. “Mom! Mom! It’s me please stop I need help!” I call out. They stop. It looked liked my mom, I couldn’t tell I haven’t drank or ate in 10 hours. I broke down in tears, not know what to do. Unknowingly I get pulled into the back of the car. And suddenly I black out.


I woke up not knowing where I was, or who these people were. I started looking around. It was a normal room, except there was no doors or windows. Panic attacked my head. My air slipping away, my head starts to spin. I break down in tears, hysterically crying, gasping for air. I don’t know what to do.


I get woken up by this tall, muscular man in a black jumpsuit, black ski mask, and black shoes. I’m scared, I’m terrified, as I try to move he says to me, “there is no way you are leaving again. You’re mine now, always and forever.” I start to tear up, I try to stand but I fall. Im so weak, I can’t even think straight. All these thought rushing through my head. I’m think “how I got here? And how did all of this happen?” Everything is a blur.


Once again the man is gone. At this point I’m thinking this is some kind of dream and I can’t wake up, no matter how hard I try. I start to lose hope. I give up, I can’t keep trying to escape. I look around again, but this time I see something in a distance. It’s my phone..? I try to crawl to pick it up. I see all these texts, one from my mom, another from my best friend, one from my dad, and then one from my boyfriend.?


It takes a few minutes to open my phone, but I get it eventually. I read the messages, they all seem worried about me. I answered my mom first, I told her I was ok and I wasn’t hurt, I told her I was scared and I needed help though. I sent her my location because I had no idea where I was. While I waited for her response I texted everyone back.


My mom finally answered and she seemed worried by how she was texting. At first she told me “don’t worry honey the cops are searching for you.” But then she said “ I’m worried about you, you are in a whole different state..” The last text I got from her was “honey, I’m sorry but you’re trapped. We can’t get to you, you are in some island and it’s surrounded by deadly animals, and over 200 guards. I promise we won’t stop fighting for you, we will always love you.” That’s when I noticed I was truly lost.
