While In The Office... Part 4

Running through the last door from my high school I was finally free. I could run off and do some hiking alone was my intentions. As I went across the parking lot picking my path around the parked cars I noticed someone leaning against the portable. he was masked by the shadow the small building made from the sun. He was a taller man, very muscular and hand some pilot glasses on. When he noticed I was looking at him he flicked his toothpick to the ground and started running after me. I , being frightened, decided to hide behind a car. We played a little can't catch me around the car and then all of a sudden I saw him standing on top of the car. Then I saw his nose, it was broken in the middle and started to bleed. I took off in the other direction and then I started to feel a tingling sensation on the back of my neck. I remembered what this feeling was as I dropped to the ground. In an instant a huge helicopter was above me blocking out the sun. The man came into view and said, “take my hand.” as I reached for it I awoke to see my hand outstretched and in a small room. the inside of the small shack looked like someone had grabbed all they could leaving in a hurry. A lamp was shattered on the floor. I was in a small bed with a metal frame. From my right I heard a creeking sound and shot my head in that direction. I found that a door was about arms length from me and it opened towards me. I thought that was strange but didn't put much more thought into it. The door was partly open and seemed to move when a slight breeze came through. On top of the door hanging from it was a helmet. Memories of the turtle like creature next to the man with the large stick in the helicopter flowed back. It must have been someone with a gun and his helmet was on the floor seeing the resmblence of the helmet and turtle. I got up feeling dazed but still very alert. I peeked my head outside the door and I saw lots of trees. It appeared like it was the same place I was at before I feel asleep but I couldn't remember there being a house in the base. I decided to grab the helmet and when I grabbed it something fell to the floor. It was a small pistol. duct taped to the pistol was a small clicker I saw everyone communicate with before. I grabbed the pistol and also the clicker and then put on the helmet. I felt a little safer with something protecting my head. I winched at the thought of all the blows to my head the last couple of times I awoke. I was thinking on how much time had passed from each episode when I heard a huge crash and explosion outside. I got on my knees and poked my head out fast and then back in like I had seen in a spy movie. The image I got was a huge helicopter that had crashed in a very small opening in the trees. I didn't think I saw a person anywhere so I took a longer look. this time I saw someone coming my way with their hand gun pulled. I couldn't tell who it was and I didn't think I wanted to know. I went behind the door and waited for what seemed to be the end. The first thing I saw was the gun, inching its way through the door way. I then saw a hand. The gun was facing the bed I just got out of...I thought, "I never want my head next to a door again.." I didn't want to see anymore so I rammed the door as hard as I could. I saw part his hand get jammed in the door way and then someone swear. I then heard two shots and a thud right outside the door. As I backed away the door it left a crack so I could see the outside. I saw the man on the floor apparently dead. I noticed some red coming from a hole in his chest. I then noticed some blood from his head and saw another bullet hole. “Good shot!” was all I could think. Then I heard clicking. Not thinking twice I grabbed the clicker and clicked it about a zillion times. I think it had been a little to much cause by the time I was done clicking the door swung open and their stood Agent Black. I always wondered how he moved so quickly. He was wearing silver pilot glasses with a brown tint to them. I half laughing said, “ I thought of you wearing gold on brown not silver”. He smiled and said, “I ain't the flashy type.” “ come on, we got some trails to fallow.” I didn't move. for the first time I wanted to know what was going on. Agent Black seeing that I wasn't going to move made his hand into a fist and got an angry face. He then letting it all go with a sigh exclaimed, “look, you can't know whats happening just yet. lets just say I am your white knight and you are the damsel in distress...” I thinking that that was awkward and half believing he was gay said, “you don't have a way with words do you?” he responded, “only in the right circumstances, come on, we got to go.” I decided to just fallow and do what was told for the time being. It wasn't worth jeopardizing the little time I felt we had from his tone of voice. We must have moved for what seemed to me a couple hours. We headed up a small mountain behind the shed and then down the other side. We then turned towards the sun set and headed towards that till it was almost completely dark. I was thinking the whole time I should ask where we were and whats going on, but every time I was going to try and say something Black would stop and get to his knees motioning me to do the same. I had heard nor seen anything during this time except once when I heard some noises from the clickers that seemed to be so useful here. Now after it had gotten dark and it felt like we had slowed our pace and felt a little less tense then before. Thinking it was all clear I whispered, “where are we going?” He responded, “ To your extraction point”. Thinking of the conversation I overheard right before I fell asleep last I said, “good I can get out of here and everything will be normal again.” He smiled at me. I spotted a small light in front of us as he looked at me. Agent black seeing alarm in my face seemed to jump a little. He grabbed my shirt and flopped to the ground with me being dragged right after him. The light shown directly on us and a distinct clicking was heard from the light. Agent Black clicked in reply three times. The light came closer and I saw the tactical vest and the muscle arms and knew we were a goner. I felt something leave my back pocket and realized it was my gun with the clipper attached. I thougth Agent Black had gone mad but before I could say anything the light was upon us and the huge man was looking straight at us. I felt Agent Black smack me against the head and my helmet fell to the floor. Amongst the fear I had for what was coming slowly towards us I became more scared with my head unprotected. “ well it looks like I finally found the lose rat!” a voice behind the light said. Agent Black stood up and totally changing his voice to some Irish tone and said, “look! we get ambushed and the first thing I do is save the kid and now you're blaming me? What about your mistake!??” Black then pushed the man but the large man didn't even budge. He looked silently at Agent Black then spoke up and said, “Mr. White you are some kind of a guy. Our troops are stationed just over the hill. lets get back to base.”I thought, “Mr. White? now he's mad and has two identities...” Black AKA White then turned to me and very roughly grabbed me by the arm and said, “and this little weasel has been trouble since we got ambushed. I ran after him for quite some time...” I saw Black's hand ready to hit me when the other man said, “Stop! we have strict orders for him to be prime for Headman Joe tonight.” Agent black looked surprised and said, “Joe's here tonight! well I'll be! I've waited for this time since two years ago Mr. snake...” I seeing now that agent black was acting and just playing this man named Mr. snake I decided to play along and just be this “damsel” he said I was. We got to a small camp with some logs pilled for what my guess was cover. Agent Black threw me behind some logs and exclaimed, “nothing but trouble!” and then kneed down and grabbed some rope next to me. he then started to tie my arms together then put my legs together tying them to my hands. I decided I would never like to be a pig... I heard Agent black whisper “I am the good guy, stay here and nothing will happen. Now head butt me.” I said, “with pleasure” and smacked him good with my head, I got a good shot of his nose. blood went everywhere and he swore. He then tripped over to the group and they all had a laugh at him. agent black then said something and started over towards a river and started washing his face. I noticed he clicked once and threw his clicker as far as he could when everyone was looking at me or at the fire. I noticed a couple rats where on the menu for these men. They were grilling them on a stick over the fire. I saw one of them start eating and then noticed I was looking at him. He walked over to me and grabbed my shirt and said, “want a bite?” laughing somewhat he stuffed a piece of the rat into my mouth. It was quite good to tell the truth, but I ate it like I hated it and didn't say a thing. I then for the first time said something. “could I have some water?” agent black walked towards me and said, “already got that covered” I then saw him throw a wooden cup full of water at me at which with no hands to catch spilled all over me. Suprisingly a lot hit my mouth and down my throat and I started to cough a little. Everyone got a good laugh out of that one. Agent black then joined the group. I then started feeling strange. I started to feel like everything was magnified by 20 and my eyesight became blurry on the sides. I felt like everyone was moving slowly. The laughter coming from the men where just meer echoes to the ringing that started in my head. I could hardly move anything on my body. After a while I started to feel better, but at the same time I couldn't move a muscle. I could move my eyes around and blink but that was it. I couldn't swallow so some slobber came out of my lips and went to the ground. I then saw all the men get up and solute some soldier. He was smaller then the rest from what I could tell. As he looked at me he smiled. he had gold teeth and some others missing. He walked over to me and when he was about 2 feet away something smashed into this man's chest. Two more things hit him and he fell to the ground. He fell right on top of me. His sidearm hit my temple and I felt some refreshing warm substance flow into my mouth right before everything went from detailed to fuzzy, then to blackness. My last thought was, “There is no way I am every going to leave without a helmet again..."
