Out of Tokyo.

Somewhere in Havana, Cuba

"So let's get something straight, she's still in Tokyo?"

She banged her fist on the table, staring coldly at the man in front of her.

"Yes, boss, she happened to close late, on the targeted day, so we couldn't abduct her till midnight."

He replied, with confidence.

"But she will be brought down, here to Cuba, as soon as possible." he added.

"I give you 8 hours to send her down here," she said twirling her seat.

"Yes boss." he replied standing up and exiting the dimly dark office.

Lin's p.o.v

I blinked twice and I noticed I was on the floor. I can't really recall what happened.

But I do know I wasn't feeling dizzy anymore.

I tried standing up and that was when I realized my limbs were now weak, and heavy.

"Fuck it."

I shouted, but my voice came out as a mere whisper.

Great now I can't talk.

The damm injection paralyzed half of my body. Why is all this happening to me?

I could hear the door open again, and this time two men came in, but I could only see their feet and hear their voices.

"I never get tired of this," one of them said laughing.

"I know right, we better hurry, we have 7 hours left,"

He said moving to my back, and swiftly raised me.

"Quite light."

he said as he picked me off the floor.

"Are they taking me to their slaughter room?"

"Is this how they kidnap, and kill their victim?"

So many questions were on my mind at the moment, but I couldn't utter a single word. 

I was now too weak to cry.

More like I gave up on everything, and whatever ever was going to happen, I'm going to take it as my fate.

"Do we need to put her in a body bag?"

The second man asked interrupting my thoughts, that was when I noticed we'd been walking for minutes in the corridor and I started to wonder how it could have been if I tried running away...

"Nahh there's no need for that, she already looks like she's sick."

The one carrying me replied.

Out of desperation, I wiggled my body a bit, although I knew it wasn't going to make any difference, 

"A sick person wouldn't do that."

His partner noted in a seemly excited tune

"A body bag it is then."

The man carrying me said. I don't know what that meant, but I did know, it was bad. And I felt really stupid, why the fuck would I worsen my predicament.

I shut my eyes and inhaled deeply. Wishing, I would open my eyes and realize it was just a horrible nightmare and I'm fine and safe.

But no this is a horrible reality, I have been abducted, I have no idea where they are taking me at the moment, I can't move half of my body or nearly all parts of my body, i'm as stiff as a wood and it hurts.

I can't talk, I can only observe, watch and cry as tears seem to be the only medium for expressing my emotions, where the fuck is my dad, where is all the security when I needed them the most. I am starting to regret ever leaving Italy.

Everything was happening so fast, it hadn't been up to five years since I left Italy...

I sighed..

So many why's, and that's when I realized, they were taking a new route, probably to the slaughter room, because I heard body bag...

"Here's our baby,"

the other dude said, I couldn't see the bag, because I couldn't move. And I was facing the back.

"Don't worry, it's so comfortable you wouldn't wish to come out."

The man carrying me said in a very sarcastic tone while lowering me into the something.

I just knew that this was the body bag, they were talking about.

Was I going to die in it?

I could feel the tears well up in my eyes.

I was lowered into the bag, then they slowly started to zip up the bag...

I was going to suffocate inside this.

"Bye sweetie"

One of them said while the other waved.

*****

A house in Clinique, Terre, Italy

"No way, you can't tell me you can't find, Lin"

A man stood up yelling at a man in a military uniform.

"Sir we are trying our very best, and we will find her, I trust my men, they will get the job done sir, you need not worry"

He said firmly with confidence.

"Don't fuckin say that, when am not getting any positive news, the longer we waste time, the more it becomes complicated."

He fumed

"My daughter's life's at stake, and you open your mouth to tell me I need not worry huh?" Mr. Guan said in anger, his veins becoming visible on his forehead.

"Sir this isn't a normal abduction case, whoever took her, wants to get to you" 

"Of course, the person has affiliations with me, and that's why I hired you to do this job and do it well because if anything happens to my daughter you're gonna lose everything."

Mr Guan said in a very deadly tone as he slumps back into his seat.

"Yes sir."

The military man noted and after a short salute he turned and walked out of the personal chambers.

Mr Guan picked up the telephone, on the desk.

After punching some keys. Few rings later

The person finally picked up

"There's someone with my daughter, I don't know how they knew her whereabouts and now want to use her as bait, this person knows us, and I want you to find out who this person is, Noted?.."

Mr. Guan spoke on the telephone...

"Yes sir "

"Make it fast" he added and ended the call

Lin's p.o.v

I suddenly felt, fresh air and light prompting me to open my eyes, at first, all I saw was white.

"I'm i in heaven already?"

But after blinking a few more times, I realized it was just the light of the room and the air con, that made the place cozy. 

"Where.. am I?"

I coughed, my voice was sounding better now.

And there was no reply.

I felt dead... I went unconscious as soon as they zipped the bag... Suddenly flashbacks came...

"Wasn't I supposed to be dead?"

They were taking me to a slaughter room if am not mistaken...

I suddenly touched what I was lying on, it felt soft, like a bed, I tried moving my neck, and I realized I was no longer numbed and I could move..

I immediately stood up.

"It was a dream after all, I'm safe and in my room."

A voice said in my head.

Already sitting on the bed. I looked intensively around and this time something was off.

This room isn't mine.
