Hook, Line, and Sinker

"Are you trying to tell us that we are dragging you into a compound where there are cannibals?" asked Chen Zi Han, his voice coming out in a harsh whisper.  I scrunched my nose. "I can't be completely sure that they are cannibals. I am just working on the assumption that they are," I clarified. 

"Sorry," said Chen Zi Han as his hands tightened his grip on me and sent out a dark glare to the men surrounding us. I was sure that he might have been ripping a few of them to pieces if he wasn't holding me right now. "Let me ask my question properly, then. Are you trying to tell us that we are dragging you into a compound where there could be cannibals?"

"I wouldn't say dragging." I mean, the man was carrying me. But I knew better than anyone else what was waiting for us at the end of the road.

Okay, so apparently, I didn't know what we were getting into. My bad. I might have dropped the ball on that one.
