We were at the Coffin Club. Normally the thought wouldn't even have crossed my mind but since Raven asked me, it was a different story. We had been there for about an hour and everything was going just fine. I went to the bar to get a drink while Raven headed to the bathroom. That was when it happened.

Two tattered guys came out of an unmarked coffin door, and grabbed me as the glass slipped from my hands. As they pulled me through the crowd my arm made contact with something sharp. Pain pierced through me as I felt oozing down my arm.

"What the hell?" I said.

One of them went straight to the point, "Listen kid. We can make this easy or hard. You choose," the muscled one said. I stared at him through the flashing lights and he flashed his fangs.

At that point, I saw a confused Raven come out of the coffin shaped bathroom door and spot me. At first relief spread on her face and then dread. She realized what was going on and so did the muscled guys. The more Raven tried to make her way through the crowd, the faster they pushed me through. I was trying to push back but when one of them squeezed my injured arm, pain went down to my core and I felt my entire strength washed out of me. They opened another unmarked door as my eyes frantically searched for my goth girl to find nothing. They pushed me through the door, closing it behind us and shoved me against an elevator wall. Just my luck I landed on my arm opening it further more. Of course I yelled in pain.

"Let me out! Who the hell are you!?" I yelled at them. They didn't respond but instead the lankier one grabbed me and the other pressed a button.

I knew I shouldn't press my luck but I wasn't going to stand by while they did what they pleased. "What the hell do you want!"

"Shut up." the lanky one said.

"Who areyou?" I asked once again and received a kick in my stomach.

I stayed quiet for the remainder of the ride as my arm continued bleeding, getting worse by the second. Once it stopped they grabbed me again and took me through what seemed like endless tunnels and stairways until they finally stopped at a normal old looking door. One of them opened it to reveal another man wearing a black cloak. He unlocked one of the many other doors of a hallway and the muscles shoved me inside a dark room. It was only lit with a small candle that would burn out within seconds no doubt. My hands, now scraped, edged for the door as it shut, burning out the candle. I grasped for the doorknob to find it didn't have a door knob. At least not through the inside anyway.

I was engulfed by darkness and I let my eyes adjust. I clutched my arm and stood up wondering where I was only to be able to see silhouettes. It was worse than cave darkness. Three silhouettes, two coffin shaped and another like a person. I walked toward one of the coffins - the farthest from the stranger - and leaned against it, sliding to sit down. As I examined my gash, dirt had gone into it causing another burning sensation.

I looked back to the stranger as they sat silently, their puffy tutu skirt as dark as the room. So it was a girl. Where was I? What would I tell Raven? Thinking of her I pulled out my cell phone, when I heard the girl.

"Don't bother, I've tried everything."

No. Please no.

On second thought, I wondered if I'd get out of here sane let alone, alive.
