Snippet #1629207

Addy glared untrustingly at the smooth skinned lady in front of her, quite the opposite in every way as the old bird-lady being led away. The two young ones on either side of her started to question the sweetly flowing words spilling from the gentile woman's mouth. Addy listened, her brain spinning in a confused fashion, as she thought about what the woman seemed to be offering. It was as if she thought they were guests from the next town or something! Didn't the lady know that she had been put here against her will?! Addy tried to remember exactly how she did arrive at this strange, strange place but a razor sharp pain immediately cut into her forehead.

Addy didn't know who these other two teenagers were, and she didn't particularly want to trust them, but they would be stronger as a group - for whatever was in store for them.

"We're a group." She spoke up. "A room or two would be fine." Addy paused glancing around, a pseudo-control gripping her tone, silently urging the others to play along. "We would love to learn more about you and your...uhm... town." she ventured. As the lie slipped from Addy's tongue, she tried to shut out the panic that was gripping her lungs. She had felt this feeling only once before. The feeling of being in a place that you hate and not being able to leave.
