Chapter 9: We're Not In Georigia Anymore
(D.P.O.V)
I opened my eyes to see nothing but blinding white walls all around me. My waist was strapped to a metal operating table. My shirt was off and I had been hooked up to a machine that looked like a heart monitor but the machine wasn't beeping. I sat up trying to remember what happened. I was with Tally looking up at the sky when we saw a shooting star. A star that looked as though it was coming closer to us. Then, I blacked out. Where was I? Where was Tally? Was the shooting star the reason I'm here? What did she wish for?
I tried to get the strap lose from my waist but it was too strong for me to undo. All I saw was white. White walls, white floor, white ceiling. Everything was white except for this metal table. Wait, something red! In the right corner of the room. It was blinking. What was it? Could it help me get out of this room? How could I get over there? I started moving fiercely when the table started moving. The table had wheels! I could wheel over! I started shifting my weight and using my arms as if they were ores for a rowboat. Finally, I reached the blinking red light. I examined it more closely. What was it? It was a call speaker! If I pressed in on the button could it lead me to the voice of my kidnapper? Anything was better then waiting in this room.
I reached to the wall and pressed the button and held it in with my pointer finger. "Hello, is anyone there?" I waited. Nothing. I decided to speak louder. "Hello! Is anyone there?" I waited. Silence. Then a cackle, staticy sound. I waited longer. A scared skittish voice came through.
"Deric...is that you?" It was Tally! Was she hurt. She sounded so scared
"Tally are you ok? Are you hurt?"
"N...no...Deric, where am I? What happened last night?" I wish I had answers for her. I didn't even know where I was.
"I wish I knew Tally. I don't know where we are. I'm in a room thats all white. There's not even a door. I woke up, my waist strapped down to a metal rolling table, shirtless. I was hooked up to a machine that looks like a heart monitor. There's nothing else in this room but this speaker."
"Same here Deric, only, I had all my clothes on." Well, that was a relief.
"Tally I'm going to try to find a way out of here."
"How Deric? We're strapped to tables and there's no doors to escape out of...wait! Deric...I hear footsteps. Someone's coming. I'm scared."
"It's ok Tally. Just stop talking and be silent. I'll be able to hear everything that goes on." Then, I heard something that sounded like a machine starting up. Then I heard a robotic voice.
"Greetings, Oh I see you found out how to use the talkie box. Naughty human." Naughty human? The voice sounded small and squaky. I heard a click and then I was unable to hear anything any longer. I started panicking wondering if that thing that came into Tally's room was going to hurt her. I frantically started squirming and wriggling to get out of the strap but it wouldn't budge. It held me tight to the cold, metal table. Then suddenly, I heard footsteps. Coming closer to this room. Then one of the walls began to slide up. It sounded just like the machine sound I heard earlier on Tally's end. A mist of smoke appeared and covered the room and I couldn't see anything but a short, shadowy figure enter the room.
Then he started coming closer and spoke to me. "Greetings Earthling, I come in peace."
