Chapter OneThe dark room weighed down my silence, and my heart beat faster and faster. Suspense seeped into my body consuming me. I reached out my hands trying to feel for any solid object but all I felt was more darkness and empty spaces. Was I dead? I started to make the faint outlines of the walls and I loomed over to it resting my hand on its icy cold surface. Where am I? I thought shaking from fear. The wall was ruff as if made of old stone not brick or plaster. I could smell something very unfamiliar, something like sulfur. It filled my nose and made it itch. As I kept walking my hand fell upon a sticky substance and I lifted my hand from the wall. I brought my hand to my nose and smelt it; I know immediately what it was from the first whiff even as my nose was filled with that sulfur smell. Blood. I whimpered and backed away from the wall suddenly tripping over something on the ground falling into more darkness. Where the hell am I? I kept asking myself. This isn’t right! I…See More
