Prisoner- Chapter 89

When I regained consciousness, my head was throbbing in immense pain.

I opened my eyes to find myself still in complete darkness. I closed my eyes again then opened them once more, still nothing.

I reached my hands up to my face to find that they were bound, my feet too. There was some kind of silky cloth over my head.

I heard the sound of crying across from me.

"Who's there?" I asked shifting my eyes from side to side only to see darkness.

"Max?" Someone asked.

"Angel, sweetie, is that you?" I asked wishing I could see her.

"Yeah." She said through a sob.

"Are you okay?" I asked desperately.

"Yeah." I heard her sniff.

"Angel, can you see?" I asked hoping for a 'yes'.

"No, they put something over my head." She answered.

"Me too." I said quietly.

"Is anyone else here?" I questioned.

"I am." Total said sounding miserable.

"I'm here." Nudge said. "Max, are you okay? I saw Ari kick you in the head."

"I'm fine, Nudge." I assured. "Just got a throbbing headache."

"How are we going to get out of here?" Gazzy asked from beside me.

"We'll think of something."

"Ugh…"

"Ig, is that you?"

"Yeah." He said sounding in pain.

"You okay?"

"Yeah, just sore… all over." He said miserably.

"Where's Fang?" I asked beginning to panic.

"Over here." He said in a normal monotone voice.

I let out a breath I'd been holding.

"You okay?" I asked wishing I could see him.

"Fine." He said simply. "Really."

"If you're lying, I'll kill you myself." I said wishing I knew if he was telling the truth.

"I'd like to see you try." He said smugly.

I could just imagine a smirk upon his lips.

"I find it amazing how you two can flirt in the worst of times." Iggy said sounding disgusted by Fang and I's behavior.

"Shut up, Ig." I said bringing my bound hands up to my head and trying to remove the silk material from hanging down over my face.

"Fang, I need you to try and untie me." I said finally willing to ask for help. "I'm gonna move over to you, so I need you to talk to let me know where you are."

"Okay, come this way." He said as I started to move towards him. "Be careful."

"I am." I assured reaching my bound hands out as far as they could reach, which wasn't very far. I kept scooting and reaching until I felt something, a wall.

"Fang?"

"To your right." He said. "Keep coming."

I made my way to his voice until my fingers came in contact with someone's leg.

"Is that you?" I questioned grabbing the material of the jeans and pulling slightly.

"Yeah." He said as I felt his hands clasp around mine.

"Okay, try to get this rope off of my wrists."

I felt his hands leave mine and then his fingers start to tug at the rope.

"It's on tight." He said seeming to have no luck.

"I know." I said rolling my eyes. "I think it's starting to cut into my skin."

He kept tugging at the rope.

"It won't loosen." He said sounding angry.

"Here, let me try to get yours." I said grabbing his hands to make them become still.

I began to tug on the ropes binding his wrists together and eventually got them to loosen enough for him to get it off.

He pulled the silk material off of my head then went to work on unbinding his ankles. When he was done he reached for my wrists, but I pulled them away.

"Help them first." I said referring to the flock.

He gave me one last look then kissed my cheek before he moved over to the flock and began untying them and taking the silk material away from their eyes.

Things were looking up.
