5. chapter – what information?

Eric is tied to a chair. He doesn't have his glasses on so he can't really tell where he is. He feels dizzy and is slowly getting more clear. He feels a strong pain in his left leg and a heading.

"seems like your buddy is finally awake." An unfamiliar male voice says.

"what are you going to do to him?" Ira's more familiar voice says. Eric can vaguely make out the outline of Ira.

"didn't you say he works for the government?" the unknown male voice asks. ira nods a little unsure about what is going to happen. "then get him to tell us what we need to know?"

Eric hear the sound of a bunch of wires landing on the concrete floor and the sound of a bucket full of water placed on the floor.

"I don't know anything." Eric says trying not to sound as terrified as he is. The unknown man starts laughing.

"I have heard that before Mr. G-man." The unknown man's voice is closer to Eric's face now. Eric can see he has a read beard and a tattoo on his neck but he can't see the tattoo in details.

Eric hear the sound of jumper cables get connected to the metal legs of the chair he is tied to.

"let's see how much Mr. G-man here can take." The unknown voice says.

Eric is scared. He remembers how Sam looked after he got tortured by Sidorov. Eric feel a very strong chock through his body and he Screams.

"stop!" Eric hear Ira yells. finally, Ira is helping me. Eric thinks. "he is not the one who has the information. His girlfriend does." Ira says.

"what girlfriend?" the unknown man who is standing next to Eric says with a deep threating voice. He has a slight accent, Eric notices. Maybe German.

"I don't have a girlfriend." Eric says but clearly no one is listening to him. "a hot red hair tech chick. He works with her for the government." Ira says. Eric is choked. How can his friend Ira be part of this? What does they want? And why are they interested in him and Nell? Eric is confused and scared, but he HAS to be strong. They cannot hurt Nell!
