Alannah's P.O.V
I woke up in a dark and damp place. I felt around. I was lying on grass. I tried to stand up, but the most I could do was get myself into a seated position. My mind was a blur. I didn't know I got there, or when I got there. I was subconsciously starting to create different possible scenarios of what could be happening to me. Then I remembered what Nico had told me earlier. Oh gods! I'm kidnapped? I looked around. I couldn't see anybody. Suddenly, I felt hands covering my eyes. For a moment I thought that this was all a big joke, and that any moment the person who was covering my eyes would whisper in my ear "guess who". Just like my brothers and my friends did all the time. That's what this was. There was no need to worry. Then Nico's face flashed in my mind. I remembered how serious he looked when he thought I was in danger. I realized how serious this situation was. Then, I felt scared for the first time since waking up. Who had taken me? Whose hands were covering my eyes. I forced myself to stand up. My sudden action confused whoever was behind me. His hands were no longer covering my face. He started to stand, but he wasn't fast enough. I kicked him in his stomach and started to run away. From what I could tell, I was in a park, Central Park, I thought. It was impossible to tell. It was too dark to see anything more than the ground and some shadows.
I kept running until something knocked me over. It was a person. He was pinning me down. I couldn't see his face, because of the darkness, but I could tell that it was not the same guy who had his hands around my eyes. This guy was much bigger. I struggled to get our from underneath him. He called to the other guy who had recovered from my kick and he ran over to us. Each of them grabbed one of my arms and forced me to walk with them. I struggled to free my arms. The then lifted me off the ground, still only holding me by my arms. Eventually, I freed my arms, but that resulted in me falling face down on the ground. I hurried to get myself up. I ran as fast and as far away as I could. Eventually, I had to stop to breathe.
I decided I would use my emergency necklace to send an Iris message to someone that could help. The necklace (a gift from my mom) sprays water so that I can have mist to send a message from. I was about to spray it, when I started to think it through. It was dark out. I had no way of knowing what time it was. Heck, I didn't even know what day it was. I then made up my mind to wait until it was light out, and I could be absolutely sure than Nico and Grace would be at camp. I wouldn't want to waste my water. The necklace only works when I remember to refill it.
