Chapter 17
Somewhere very dark and cold, in a place where no one knows, a voice talking to someone you can't see, but you see their shadows on the wall. "Well my friend, our plan is doing so well, shall I call the Guard to get the girl." The first boss said in a deep cold voice, the other boss just gave an evil laugh and said nothing at all.
Somewhere not that far away Rose was in another cell. After screaming in her other cell she was knock out cold, and woke up in a different cell. This cell has no windows so Rose dose not know where she is, and this cell had only one door, but trying to open it was no easy matter. As it is locked and has cold steel bar across the door. "Where am I?" Rose asked herself but no answer came to her.
It was very cold night and Rose was getting very cold, she tried so many things to keep warm, rubbing her hands together, using her warm breath on to her hands and even jumping up and down on the spot. Her hands and feet were not roped together so she could move, about half an hour Rose was sitting on the floor shivering.
Suddenly, Rose heard footsteps coming towards her cell, she heard keys turning in the lock and then a dark shadow appeared in the doorway.
"Right lady this is what you are going to eat?" Snapped the guard who had a sharp long club in his hands and kept hitting it on his right hand like he was saying "Please be good and then I won't hurt you with this club!"
And then he slowly put the club away in a black case at the side of his right leg, and he was holding a bowl to Rose face.
Rose looked at the guard more closely. He had a hairy skin and scary red eyes. Then she looked at his feet. Both his feet were dark brown and he had sharp claws as well.
Rose then moved her eyes toward his mouth, the guard's teeth were black and when he went right up to Rose, she could smell his breath.
It smelt like dead animals and even old pond water,
"What am I eating for Dinner?" Rose asked scared that the guard would hit her if she asked.
But he didn't hit her and said in a nice charm voice "for Dinner you got a peas and sweet corn and that's it, so eat it all up and save your strength young Rose."
Just then he heard foot steps coming right up towards Rose's cell, and his charm disappeared and he was back to his grumpy self. "WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU ARE NOT HUNGERY!!?" He roared but not at Rose instead he was shouting at a brick wall.
Then he closed the cell door with a bang, Rose sat and waited as the guard was talking to someone at the other side of the cell door.
She could not hear what he was saying to the other person, and after a few minutes two footsteps went.
Rose's tummy gave a morn and she looked at the bowl which was on the cell floor, and slowly eats the peas and sweet corn, soon it was night time Rose was getting tired, in her cell and her eyes could not keep open then they were closed.
She was dreaming about her home back at London, Jackie making lots of cups of tea, and talking about getting a job and that, then Rose's dream changed….
Rose was in a light place, and she could tell it was a bed room because of a bed and a wardrobe which was light brown with red handles on the two double doors.
Then Rose spotted a young teenager in the room, this teenager had blonde hair but was tied up like a pony tail, and this teenager had a blue jeans and a pink t-shirt on as well.
Rose wounded who this teenager was? Suddenly she heard a voice that she knows so well.
"Rose have you cleaned your room yet?" asked Jackie behind the bedroom door. Rose had her mouth open as her young self turned around and answered to the closed door.
"Yes mum I have cleaned my room and can I have a cup of tea as well?" Jackie took a minute to answer the question and said "Yes Rose, you can have a cup of tea, so can you open the door now!"
Teenager Rose sighted and said "O.k. I'm coming"…..
As teenager Rose walked towards the bed room door, Rose went to the window which was next to the bed just to have a look at the road.
There were no cars or any thing in sight. Just then Rose thought she saw a black shadow on the pavement looking at her with cold dark eyes.
"No they can't find a way to get in my dreams!" Thought Rose,
But then she turned away from the bed room window to see herself as a teenager but no one was there,
all except the black shadow that had a smile across its face soon it began to speak.
"We can go in your dreams
But we can't go in your thoughts.
Try to remember what you saw
Then it will click together
Just like glue…"
Rose tried to remember the poem in her head and then she said to the black shadow.
"I can't remember what I saw?" The black shadow clicked its black fingers and Rose woke up back in the dark cold cell….
