Kidnapped
I woke up tied to a chair with a piece of duct tape on my mouth. I yelled into it, no sound at all. I felt for what was tying my hands; I couldn't feel my hands at all. I looked around, the entire room was dark besides a light on the ceiling shining on me, literally as if to pressure me. I finally saw three figures walking towards me. Soon they were in front of my face. One in the middle was an ordinary Half-Blood and the two flanking him were Dracnaes. The Dracnaes were holding a long blade with two handles that sort of looked like lumber jack saws, but with celestial bronze with a more sword like blade than a saw. "Ah, I see you woke up." The kid said. I didn't know this Half-Blood.
"Who are you?" I asked through the duct tape, but when it came out it sounding like, "Wm, m moo?"
"What? Oh I forgot, how could I be this rude?" he ripped the duct tape hard off of my mouth.
"OWW!" I yelled out. "A nicer way would've been to add water on the duct tape until the glue wears off." The Half-Blood laughed and so did the Dracnaes.
"You are pretty funny, but we aren't here to listen to wisecracks."
"Hey if you want wise cracks, you should go to Mother Athena's house. Her walls have some cracks in it, so technicality those are wisecracks."
"Again, really funny and again, we aren't here to listen to your jokes. We are looking for a traitor of the Titans, so far from the evidence of where the traitor was before we lost track was with you. The traitor's name is Ariella you know her?"
"A traitor? I don't have a traitor with me, look my hands are clean." I said, "Oh wait let me check it." I turned around it was smudged with dirt. "Ah, it's clean enough for a Half-Blood." He began to take deep breaths, the 'Wisecracks' were getting to him. "Hey I got a question, can you just give me a low five?" I asked politely.
"Don't play any tricks with me."
"NO! I wont play tricks on you, I can't even feel them." I must've sounded convincing because he gave me a down low. "Yay, I just got a high five from a traitor." I said. "NOW I have a traitor with me." That must've pissed him off because he kicked me to the ground and started to kick me. I suddenly started to feel my hands again. Hmmm… Metal. I thought. Maybe I have a plan. I felt the pain from the shocks of his stomps and felt the pattern. I quickly turned to my back as soon as an another impact hit. CLANG! I felt the cuffs break. The dracnaes reacted really quick to the sound and swung their blades. I dodged it waving the chair high up in the air. SWISH! TICK! I felt the rope break. I swung around and smacked a dracnae right in the face making it drop it's blade. I quickly grabbed it and swung it at the other dracnae who seemed to be surprised. The dracnae turned to dust. I threw my blade at the one still getting up from the ground. The last dracnae also turned to dust.
I picked up the remaining blade and put it in defensive position. I soon realized that the Half-Blood was unarmed. I flipped the blade to the safe side and hit him with it. He fell down unconscious. I quickly ran out the door into the streets. I turned back and looked at the building. Bobby Jone's Storage Warhouse. I laughed a bit and waved for a Taxi. I am just gonna use the mist to pretend that I already paid him money for the fare.
