The beginning
As I was walking home from night school at the community college my favorite song started to blast from my earbuds.
~ Blackbird singing in the dead of night ,
take these broken wings and learn to fly,
all your life.~
As the song was ending I felt something latch on to my upper arm and yank my ear buds away from my ears with icy fingers, I whipped around to scream but as I did so felt something come crashing down on the base of my neck. The last thing I saw was electric blue eyes starring into my dull brown ones as the world went dark.
I awoke to a throbbing pain in my skull. The first thing I noticed was the smell of something musty hanging in the air. My curiosity getting the better of me, I tried to get up, but soon found out that my hands and feet were bound together as I fell to the floor with a soft thud. As I fell back a cloud of dust rose up around me, I let out a involuntary squeak as I landed and looked to the corner of the room and saw a dark shadow just sitting there watching me with those blue eyes that seemed very familiar. I gasped as everything suddenly washed back over me, he’s the one that kidnapped me. I was speechless “let it sink in” said a deep Australian voice coming from in the dark, cold corner. As he said this I found my voice enough to croak out, “Who are you? Where am I?”
