Chapter Nine

Lightning bolts flashed before my eyes, yet I didn’t see the light. It was as if I was looking through closed eye lids when the lightning flashed. That’s when it dawned on me that my eyes were closed and the lightning bolt was actually the pain coursing through my head. Another crack of lightning swept across my eyelids as I tried to focus my energy on opening them up. The lights in the room were bright as the sun, until I realized they were spotlights. Four positioned at either side of the walls that intersected directly where I was seated. I could feel the zip ties around my ankles attaching them to the front legs of the chair. My hands were also zip tied to each arm. Squinting as much as humanly possible, I scanned the room to see no visitors. No guards, no military police, absolutely nobody.

Another crack of lightning coursed through my head telling me I had a minor concussion. Nothing a little ibuprofen couldn’t handle, but I still had to watch out for the vertigo that would come and go. Crack, I heard this time wasn’t the pain. No, it was the sound of gunfire. I couldn’t tell if it was a handgun or a semiautomatic, but I sure didn’t want to find out. I looked around once more to find the door to the room on my left. The two-way glass in front of me sat dark, vacant in contrast to the white wall.

“Hello,” I called out. I counted in my head till thirty. “Is there anyone there.” I counted to thirty again. Still nothing for a response so, maybe, a little commotion would get somebody. The zip ties were tight, but they allowed me to push my arm forward through the loop so I could get a little more leverage. Allowing the zip tie to nestle on my forearms, with all my might I tried to lever my arm upwards while I grabbed hold of the chair. ‘POP,’ the zip tie sounded as it fell to the ground. I listened for another thirty seconds before I proceeded to yank the second zip tie free. The crack of semiautomatic fire pierced my ear so close that I thought they were firing on me, but it wasn’t. It was behind the door. Whatever was outside that door is now clearly riddled with bullets.

I finished yanking the other zip tie off my ankles before I sprinted to the door. I thought to myself there was no way they would leave this unlocked, but they did. The door swung open leaving me standing in a myriad of visuals my concussed brain couldn’t process fast enough. The amount of blood on the walls wasn’t something one human being could bleed. The handprint streak of blood showed whoever it was, had went right. Following the gaze, I saw a pile of mutilated corpses in all kinds of disarray, limbs missing, bodies disemboweled and some of them even had parts of their brains exposed as if someone had stopped mid brain surgery.
