New Kind Of Fear

I slowly wake up to the sound of something dripping, instantly making me frown. I groan at the pain in my head and slowly roll over. When I feel the cold hard ground under me, confusion starts to eat away at me. Why am I sleeping on the floor?

As soon as I opened my eyes, I knew something wasn't right. Suddenly, I remember the last thing I saw before everything went dark. The others! I quickly start looking around but when I see that I'm alone in a dark cell, I'm relieved and frightened at the same time.

Where the hell was I and where were the others? Were they taken as well and being held somewhere else or was I the only one taken? As I try to stand, my head feels like it's about to explode! My world tilts causing me to fall back down and clutch my head.

A low chuckle has me jumping before someone says "I would take it slow, my dear." I turn towards the voice and watch as someone in solid white suddenly appears. I narrow my eyes and say "You..." He gives me a creepy grin and says "Yes, me."

He steps closer to the cell and says "While I did have fun hanging around you and your friends. The second you discovered me, playtime was over. So tell me, my dear. What is a female doing out in the Void disguised as a male?"

After watching him for a moment, I realized it wasn't just his grin that was creepy... the dude was just creepy. Especially his eyes... I glance around before making myself comfortable on the ground and saying "That's a long story... What do you want from me?" I guess he found out I was a chick... wait, did he see me shower!?

The man in white smirks at me before tilting his head to the side and saying "Well, I was going to bring you to my leader. You see... you seem to be quite special and powerful so you'd make a wonderful meal for him but... I feel like once he finds out you're female, your outcome will be different."

I try to use my powers to create a hole in the ground but something around my neck starts to burn! I cry out and try to rip the thing off only to hear the man chuckle and say "You forget, my dear. I watched you for several days. Do you really think I wouldn't take precautions when dealing with you?"

I glare at the creep and say "This isn't going to end well for anybody." His smirk grows into a full-blown smile as he says "I actually like you. Hopefully, he doesn't kill you. Maybe when he's done with you, he'll give you to me."

I glare at the asshole as he steps back and says "Rest well tonight. He'll be here tomorrow to collect you." As soon as he steps away, I start pulling at the smooth metal ring around my neck. I strain against it and try to use my powers but as soon as I do, it starts to heat up again!

I release the metal ring and shake my hands out but when I look down at them, I see that they're red and angry. I feel my eyes beginning to burn as tears threaten to fall but I quickly wipe my face and mutter "No, I refuse to cry. I can do this... I can get out of this... think."

I ignore my headache and silently stand. I walk over to the cell bars and shake them, seeing if by some miracle I can find a weak spot but the cold bars are solid. I look around for any signs of a window or even a hole but when I don't find anything, I feel the tears trying to come back.

No! I'm not going to be a crybaby! I bite my lip and walk over to the door. I feel around the lock for anything I may be able to use but it's just smooth cold metal. I quickly start searching my own body for weapons or even a freaking hair clip but I was Valen right now... not Valerie.

I haven't carried a hair clip for a while... When I realize that I have absolutely nothing, I take a step back and fall to my ass. I lift a shaky hand up to my face as I try to think of what I could possibly do to get out of this but when I can't think of a single damn thing, I close my eyes and lower my head into my hands.

I didn't sign up for this shit! I was supposed to go to school, get good grades, smile and nod, and then go home! Not this!! Are there even classes on what to do if kidnapped by Ragers!? No!! I would freaking know!! I would have taken the damn thing!

I run my fingers through my hair as thoughts of what the creepy-ass dude said starts running through my head. What did he say? Make a wonderful meal? What the hell does that mean!? Like... literally? Do they eat people out here!??

When I feel panic clawing at my mind, I try to take deep breaths and focus. He said that since I was female, he wouldn't eat me? My mind starts showing me images of a creepy large mouth monster with sharp teeth wanting to eat me piece by piece but I quickly try to shake the mental image.

I'm gonna end up losing my damn mind before they even get to me! Maybe the others will find me and break me out before their leader gets here... was I going to play the damsel in distress card? Yes, hell yes! If it means I can get out of here, I'll even wear a dress and all!

The second the thought crosses my mind, I feel like laughing at myself. As much as I would love to blame all of this on my idiotic brother... my actions are what led up to this. I lean my back against the cold wall as I try to make peace with my death. Was I being dramatic? Maybe... Maybe not.

Suddenly, something comes to mind. There are many things worse than death...
