Twins of kalos (5th place in Adventure) PWA 2018

Chapter 28: Kidnapped*

I opened my eyes to see myself sitting on a wooden chair with my hands tied behind me, with what felt like my skin was breaking and blood was covering my entire hands...

My surroundings consisted of nothing but darkness and a light hovering over me. Nothing could be seen further than a few feet from my spot

One look down and I can still see the blood that was splashed on me earlier, from a stab that went through the man who was holding me by my aching wrist that were now tied down to a point where I almost lost feeling 

Looking around, I could see Calem sitting next to me, covered in blood like it was the color of his gown "Calem!" I tried getting free "Wake up!" He groaned in his sleep, slowly opening his eyes

"Sophie..."

"What were you thinking!? You were in bed rest! Look at you!" He chuckled weakly

"That's all you're going to say..?" I frowned, knowing what he meant by that. I wiggled my hands through the rope, knowing it hurt. I could feel that the rope wasn't tied well to keep me stable

"There's no time to worry about that! We have to get out of here before you bleed out to death!" I groaned "you're such a fucking idiot! If you told me about everything you knew, we wouldn't be in this mess!"

"I'm sorry..." I shook my head, jumping off my seat multiple times "I never mean to hurt you... I didn't think you cared" I didn't know how to respond to that. He knew there was allot of things I didn't care about, but doesn't he know that this journey has slowly started making me act differently? I've actually gone completely insane since I've started traveling... this is too much. There's so much I don't understand about how I'm feeling... I mean, I've always wanted to change and become more like a person with feelings, but now... Calem, I understand now why he's so different, why the Defenders are guarding him and hate him so much, why he was emotionless... it's too much to take. He's always smiling when I'm around, and to think he's actually a murder?

"That's not important right now... we got to get you back to that hospital! Agh! Why would you leave!?"

"You..."

"Just because I ran away!? This is your life we're talking about!" He kept his head down, not moving a muscle

"My life... is meaningless" I stopped pressing and looked at him staring at nothing blankly "I grew up feeling nothing... there was nothing out there that could make me feel. Even cutting myself felt nothing" I looked over at his arm, seeing scars everywhere. Now that I think about it, even at the hottest areas, he's always wearing his jacket

"I heard you and Shauna talking when I was in the bathroom" he shivered, frowning at himself

"It was hard for me to tell you anything... because I..." he looked down further "I was afraid you'll leave" blood gushed from his body

"Stop slouching! Right now!" He shakily sat a bit higher, looking weak and tired "we can talk about this later. What's important is right now! If only Z was here... or at lease B. That way it'll be easier on us to leave" from the corner of my eye, I noticed B hanging on Calem's gown. I gasped before I was rudely interrupted by the sound of a man chuckling. We both looked up, Calem shaking, to see a figure walking out the darkness and into the light. A tall man in all black, with the black Rattata on his shoulder from earlier, approached us with a gun in his hand and cigarette between his lips

"You two won't be leaving anytime soon" he took out his cig and blew a large smoke "you two caused allot of trouble... and for that, we already know what we want to do with you"

"Fuck off!" I glared "who are you? The leader of this stupid gang!?"

"Huh, so you already figured it out? You must be pretty wise to find that out so fast" he shrugged "my name is Wayne, I'm the leader of the Shadowed Rattatas, and you were the little girl who took down the bit of my gang, so I'm sure it wasn't that hard for you to find out who I was"
