I Think I'm NextEntry #675288
I think I’m next. At first there were eight of us, sitting here chained and naked in the dark. One by one people have been taken out of the room, not to be seen again. But we hear them. Their screams of pain continue into my nightmares, in what little sleep I manage to get.

There are only three of us left; me, my neighbor Frank and some woman I don’t know. Time was, Frank and I would talk shit for hours over a few beers. But I won’t talk to him here. I am afraid I'll say the wrong thing and he’ll discover I’m the reason we’re all in here.

HE’s entered the room, holding the same dirty hunting knife he always carries. His face sticks out of a black hood to reveal the stone cold eyes I’ve feared since I was a child. He’s looking at me.

Oh fuck. I think I’m next.
