The Lie Behind the Truth - V

We were ordered to follow him through the entrance of the same old dungeon. The rays of sun touched our skin as the dungeon was filled with darkness. The shadow followed as the light of the sun invited us.
The pale man led us to a room where the others were enjoying themselves with cards and drinks. The room was wide with the lights of the 21st century with a refrigerator and every useful thing that a person needs to live their life. The depth of the jungle was hiding their luxurious life.
“Why did you bring them here?” one of them shouted with anger.
“They were pleading for help, to piss maybe. The girl has some kind of problem.” The pale guy clarified.
“Lead them back to the cave and they can waste their liquid there.” The leader replied with fury.
“I am sorry, I couldn’t control; please let us out to the jungle somewhere.” Diana interrupted them with eyes filled with tears.
“You know that we can’t run, you know that very well, don’t you sir?” I added with fear.
The leader ordered one the guard to take Diana in the Jungle. The pale guy grabs her arm and takes her out in the jungle.
“Your friend tried to deceive us with this same useless trick.” The leader stared at me with those hungry eyes. The eyes indicated that it could swallow me in a single gulp.
“Jim..Jim, Where is he? What did you do to him?” I asked.
The eyes were wide open when the leader pressed the button to open a small chamber. I was paused to silence for a while.
There he was! JIM..tied with a rope. The rashes and the swollen face showed the cruelty and beating of the kidnappers.
I tried to go there but the kidnappers stopped blocking my way with their gun.
The phases were transforming automatically taking us deep inside their scenarios. We were part of it.
"Please...Please let him go..Free him from that rope..He won't repeat it again!" I cried in tears.
The pitiful voice with extra added tears couldn't melt their hearts and they responded with a vigorous slap.
The pain of that slap was nothing in front of the pain faced by my friend.
"-just leave my hand, I can lead myself back." The pale kidnapper was holding Diana's hand and dragging him inside forcefully.
"I am a girl and when I pee, I need privacy and your man was not giving-' She paused when she saw Jim finally, in that state.
"J--imm!! What have you done with him?"
The tears rolled down eventually, after all she was a girl; the emotions flow with them at a faster rate than the men.
She freed herself from that guy's hands and ran towards Jim. The leader couldn't do anything this time. Or maybe he wanted to just entertain himself. She went near him and 'Jim Jim, wake up Jim!' She started tapping his cheeks.'
No response and the scared look became even scarier.
They all had a wide smile as they didn't care whatever happens to anyone.
Stell helped me to get my guts back and I pushed away those guns and ran towards him.
The guy was pointing gun at me for pushing him but the leader raised his hand and stopped him.
I had already thought of the names for the kidnappers as 'assholes'. The rage inside me was evolving but the guns they were holding, helped me to bury it with fear.
'Jim, our voices couldn't reach his body, the senses were lost. We were in tears as we couldn't do anything.
The pulses were still running, we could still hear the heartbeat.
Diana's eyes were seeking something in the room.
She ran towards it before I could say WAIT!
She found a bottle of water nearby in the liquor table.
'Water'..she came back as the rest of the crew were motionless. I guess they wanted to see what we could do.
The water did its trick. His conciousness came back and the first word came out was 'Water'.
We were just about to pour some waterdrops in his mouth that the leader snatched the bottle away and pushed Diana with a slap.
'You bitch trying to mess my plan? You two sucked all the fun from this scene. '
I went near Diana to pick her up and here Jim was still murmuring 'Water' with his remaining oxygen.
The assholes again were interrupting, and I don't know if Jim would survive of all those pains. He was injured internally plus he had some kinda problem and he needed water in every forty five minutes in college.
The courage inside the body was compelling me to act but who wanted to die so soon anyway, die in virginity, no way, so I decided to waste my tears and plead again as I cared for them as well as myself.
