The room was dark and empty; all that filled the abyss of the room was to men sitting in chairs on opposite sides of it facing each other. The younger of the two men was asleep in his chair. The older man called out to him “hey are you ok can you hear me?”
There was silence and as the older man thought the worst the younger of the two was able to croak a small whisper like yes. “The older man said my name is Marvin do you know where we are or how we got here?”
The younger man slouched forward in an attempt to stand up but realized he must be tied down because he was not able to. The young man said “my name is Clarke and I’m as lost as you are to what’s happening here.”
The two men sat in silence once again, Clarke hear some movement coming from the other side of the room. Worried he call out “Marvin is that you, did you get free?”But again there was silence
Clarke’s heart started to race. He tried again to stand but was unable to. At that moment he tried to reach down to see is he could get the ropes lost by hand. His arms felt heavy it must have been from what that used to knock him out. Finally he managed to get control of his arms and when he did the lights went on and he saw where his legs used to be two bleeding stomps.
Clarke screamed in horror and looked across the room to an empty chair. He franticly looked around the room and saw the old man pushing a hospital gurney out of the room. Clarke screamed did you do this to me?
The old man turned and said yes my boy and I am very thankful, thanks to you my children will go to bed with full tummies tonight. He turned around and left. Once again the room was black.
