Personal Narrative-Out Of A Car
Why me? Out of everyone and it was me, if it wasn't for my stupid car breaking down I wouldn't be in this situation. Why did I have to get out of the car. I'm currently in the trunk of a car tied up with rope and have duct tape over my mouth. Great,on my birthday too. I scrambled around looking for my phone but I couldn't see a damn thing. It was too dark and If anything that I've remembered in movies it's to not freak out, that's what would get me killed. I tried to untie the rope around my hands but I didn't have any luck. I started to lick the duct tape and it started to peel off. It started to get dusty in here and it was getting harder to breathe. I am so not happy, but I'm not scared either. Everyone is going to die someday but right

now isn't the time. I'm pissed. Whoever is up to this is going to get a kick to the face when they open the trunk. My eyesight started to get blurry. I started to get impatient and chanced with The kind of damn luck I have now and started to kick and scream. The car started to slow down and I started to prepare myself to give whoever this person was a deadly kick to the face and a break for it.
Suddenly the car sped up and I slid and hit my head on something hard.
It was a hammer. I got the sudden boost of energy and started to wiggle my hands tied up by the rope. It started to burn and then I could feel wetness trailing up my arm which meant blood. It hurt a lot but I'd rather be bleeding than dead. Which is about to happen soon if I don't hurry up. I grabbed the rope and pulled hard with my teeth and I finally broke free. I laid there thinking for a moment and then I grabbed the hammer and started to hit where the tail lights were. Soon enough the tail light popped out and I started waving my hands around like crazy. I made sure I was waving my hand downward so he couldn't see in his side or rear view mirrors. But still no luck. I started to search the rest of the trunk now that my hands were free. I found a bucket of paint not knowing what color it was and popping off of the lid with the other side of the hammer. I slowly started to pour it out. Leaving a trail of paint along the road. All of a sudden I dropped the paint bucket and it started to spill everywhere leaving me barely breathing. I put my head out the small hole gasping for air and then laying back down holding my breath. The person that was driving slammed on the brakes, cursed and got out. He found out about the paint. He saw the paint on the …show more content…
road. I was ready, and as soon as he opened the trunk I kicked him in the face and he fell to the ground. I quickly hopped out and started running into the forest and I heard him groan and curse. I heard heavy footsteps right behind me, so I started running faster and I was gasping harder for air. Not too far ahead I saw another road. I ran as fast as I could and then I tripped over a branch that was sticking out of the ground. I quickly got up and I looked behind me but the man wasn't there. I got up and I started running again and soon enough I came to the road. I didn't know which way to go. Right or left? I chose left. After running for a solid 45 minutes I slowed down and started walking. I searched for my cellphone but it wasn't there. I wanted to give up. There's no way I'm finding my way back. I sat down on the side of the road not knowing what to do when I saw a car coming. It was the man that kidnapped me. I immediately ran down the little ditch and into the forest and hid behind a tree. I heard the car slow down and I peeked around the tree to see if he was gone. When I looked he was in his car looking out the sides of his windows looking for me. I turned around and put my back against the tree and waited and then I heard the car speed off. I exhaled fearfully and slid down the tree and sat down. I started crying and I started to regret lying to my parents about going to dinner with friends but actually sneaking to a party. They never let me go to parties and now i wish I had listened to them. How would I explain this all to them when I get back? If I ever get back. This isn't something I should be worrying about now. I got up and brushed myself off and made my way up the ditch to the road. I took a deep breath and started running again and about an hour later I found a gas station. It looked abandoned but I went there anyways so it could be my shelter for the night. It was starting to get dark out. I checked the door and it was locked. I checked the windows and they were boarded up except the back one. It was already smashed so I didn't have to do anything. I climbed through the window and looked around. I found blankets and a pillows on the ground so I wondered if anybody was staying here.
This place was kinda big so It wasn't bad. Anyways, I started to make my way through the door when I saw huge refrigerators and racks full of food and water. I was about to grab some water when I heard a piece of glass being stepped on and I gasped and hid behind the counter. I was trying not to breathe heavily and I was really afraid. I heard two guys talking and then I heard them enter the room, so I peered over the counter and there they were. One guy had a backpack and a gun while the other guy also had a backpack and gun. I didn't know what to do. I hesitated and then all of a sudden I stood up. "Please help me," I said frightened.
Immediately they both swung around and pointed their guns at me. I backed up and bumped into the wall. They walked closer and asked for my name, and what I was doing here. I told them my name and I told them about what happened to me. Two hours later and I was wrapped in a blanket and was given tea. They told me their car broke down and needed to find a station and they had found this place. They said this place closed a month ago and this is where the have been staying. I asked about the guns and they said that they always take the guns with them when they go on trips. Just Incase something tragic happens and they truly do need it. It kind of worried me but at the time I felt safe. They said that they have been walking miles and never got anywhere and they also said I was welcome to stay here for as long as I want. Beside the gas station was a big hill/mountain. In my mind I would think it would have to take 2 days to get to the very top. I told them that I would be taking off the next day to the very top to see if anything was up there. They let me use one of their blankets and pillows and then I settled for bed. I went into one of the corners in the back room and hurled in a ball with the blanket wrapped around me. I thought about my plan and how everything would be alright and slowly drifted asleep.
The next morning I strolled around the shop quietly trying not wake the others and found a toothbrush, and toothpaste in a package and grabbed a bottle of water and went to brush my teeth in the small cramped up washroom. After I was done brushing my teeth I walked out and bumped into Brad, one of the guys. I got startled and screamed and he eld me in his arms.
“Shhh you’re okay,” he said.
“Sorry I’m just.. I’m scared. What if he finds me?”
“He won’t, and even if he did you’re with two guys that have guns.”
“Yeah I guess. What if I was alone and he found me?”
“Well are you planning on going alone anywhere today? If so you are not going to, my friend and I will come with you. There’s no way that we are leaving you alone after what had happened to you.”
I looked down at my feet and then I looked at him again. I stared at him for a moment, his eyes were a beautiful dark brown and his hair was a dirty blonde.He was wearing a black Nike sweater and khakis with black Vans on his feet. He wasn’t bad looking at all and neither was his friend. I opened my mouth to say something when his friend came out.
“What’s going on here?” Aaron said in a worried voice.
“I scared her while she was coming out of the washroom.” Brad said and chuckled.
“Sorry if i woke you guys up earlier, I was just trying to find some toothpaste and a toothbrush,” I said and gave a faint smile.
The guys both looked at each other and smiled.
“No, you didn’t wake us. We were already awake,” Brad said and smiled.
I smiled and backed up a bit when I bumped into the sink and fell by slipping on some water.
Brad and Aaron came and helped me up and took me back out of the washroom and sat me down on the chair behind the cash register. They looked concerned and he handed me the rest of the water remaining from the bottle and a cloth. I poured some water onto the cloth and started dabbing it on my forehead. I looked around the clock and it was 11:48 to be exact. I decided to wait an hour before I started to make my way up the mountain. I grabbed a sling bag that was hanging from one of the walls and put some granola bars and water in it and zipped it up. I had a headache and my vision was starting to get blurry so I went and sat back down.Aaron found a map in the back room and folded it out on the counter and opened a package of pens and started marking things down on the map. Brad was standing by my side and was helping me get stuff ready for the big
hike.
