Thanks for the reviews and adds! Just hope this lives up to everyone's expectations (I already know it won't live up to mine)!
Don't own any of it.
'Kensi,' Callen tried to sit up but found his body wasn't responding, 'Kensi,' he rolled over onto his side to see her lying motionless. He hoped she was just unconscious as he guessed he had been.
Slowly he felt able to move, Callen crawled to where the still body lay, 'Kensi,' he repeated, relieved as she started to move gently.
In reality Callen guessed an hour had passed, but it felt more like 6 or 7 before Kensi was awake enough to talk. Movement still wasn't an option for her, but awake was good and the time had helped him regain some of his strength.
'What happened,' she looked at him, 'where are we?' she looked around.
Good question he thought as he hauled himself up to his feet, there was a small lamp next to them, not much light but enough to see things which were very close by. The floor was concrete, he couldn't see the walls, he reached for his gun – gone, back up gun – gone, cell phone – gone, second cell – in the car, badge – locker, wallet - gone, he looked at Kensi who was now able to sit up and saw she was looking for the same items, he couldn't say where her second cell was but it was pretty obvious from the look she gave him she also had nothing on her.
Kensi started to stand and Callen helped her to her feet. Working the room she followed behind him as he picked a direction and started walking, until a concrete wall stopped him. Without a word Kensi stood next to him, hands on the wall and whilst he walked along the wall with the light she followed using her hands to feel for anything they couldn't see in the dim light. The light wasn't up to much and seemed to her to be fading fast, as long as it lasted long enough to find a way out it shouldn't be a problem she thought.
Kensi had been counting in her head and although she knew she wasn't completely with it she knew the numbers did not add up. 'Callen stop,' she told him, 'that's 8 walls so far, that's impossible.'
'8,' he replied, 'are you sure? I counted 10,' she glared at him even in this light he could see, no feel, it clearly. 'OK you're right, it's wrong.'
They couldn't see any of the other walls from their position so Callen said the one thing he really didn't want to, 'stay here,' and placing his hand on the wall turned away from her.
'Callen', she grabbed his arm, 'be careful,' she whispered, wasn't sure why, because this place was eerily silent.
Callen nodded and started to walk away, as he did he counted his steps and the walls hoping to find a door, 80 steps, 4 walls later he returned to Kensi 'there's no way out' he told her.
'Did you stop?' she asked.
'No, there's nothing,' he put a hand on her shoulder.
'Less than 2 minutes,' she told him, Callen realised she had been counting time, in the dark the place seemed huge but obviously it was small and compact.
'How did we get in here, there has to be an exit?' She looked at Callen as he did the one thing she really didn't want him to do right then, he turned out the light.
'Fireman drill,' Callen spoke softly, it was part of basic training and felt so ridiculous at the time carefully walking along gently swinging their legs out in front and reaching with their spare hand, the other hand firmly attached to their partners shoulder, Kensi remembered how the firemen had told them that, although it looked stupid, in a room full of smoke when you can't see anything, it was the best and safest way to check the floor. So they carefully performed the drill she had thought was a joke at the time.
Both of them kicked the object the same time. Reaching down they felt the springs, Callen turned the lamp back on and in the dim light, which right now seemed so bright they could see it. A mattress, and blankets. Kensi suddenly realised she was cold, and started to shiver.
'Kens, you OK?' Callen became aware of the shivering.
'Cold, that's all,' she told him, he lifted the corner of the mattress, together they pulled it to a wall, safer that way no one can creep up on them from behind, Callen pulled her to the mattress and gently wrapped a blanket around her.
'We're trapped aren't we,' she stated it wasn't really a question.
'For now,' Callen replied hoping some how Sam knew they were in trouble.
