My Hero's Short Story: Awaken
Chapter 1 Awaken

My name’s Michael and this is my story.
This all started when I went to sleep in my home in New York. I had a dad, my mom had disappeared when I was five. Life was great until I turned 15. This is the year when my worst nightmare began. I was kidnapped. I awoke in a dark, dismal, and cold room. At first I believed it was my room, but I quickly realized that I was on a cold cement floor. Somehow, I found my way to a light switch, and the room quickly brightened. I was startled to find I was in a warehouse with a single desk in the middle of the huge room. The desk had a typical office phone and as soon as I moved toward it, it rang. I quickly answered, and was startled to hear a muffled robotic voice. It said “Hello Michael,

“Please let this be a dream, Please let this be a dream” I repeated to myself various times. But as soon as I saw the giant padlock on the door, I knew. This was real. I've been kidnapped and it isn't a dream. As I started to weep, I realized that my hand was pulsing red. I thought at first that my hand was simply irritated. I soon realized that there's was a small, thin metal square in my hand. I started to freak out, I mean who wouldn't? This is when my life took another major turn. I noticed a note on the bedside table. It read “Michael, inside your hand is a tracker. If you try to escape, we will know and we will be waiting. When we let you into the outside world soon, we will tell you the code to the padlock on the door. Until then, get to work, and remember we have your …show more content…
I know I shouldn't, but I only want to see my dad and get my mom back from these people. All I know is that the CIA servers are almost impenetrable. I may not be good at hacking national security websites, but I am good at hacking wifi routers. I used to do it at my friends house all the time, to get their wifi passwords. But you know what else is inside the router service? The owners name. If I can figure out the name of the person who rents the router, maybe I can figure out who has kidnapped me. They thought that they could monitor my screen, but I just made a basic loop that turns on when I try to hack them, and it makes it look like I'm making progress against the CIA when in fact, it's against them. It's time to figure out who is behind this

    Hi, Karen! I'm thrilled to hear back from you! You couldn't have written back at a better time. To be honest, I'm a bit queasy about rereading that last message I wrote because of how all over the place it is and my cringeworthy grammar. If I were to reread this message in another five years might be weirded out just the same. I guess at some point you've got to accept your own quirkiness if you haven't already.…

    There’s an overwhelming sense of fear. It is as if there were eyes watching me. I begin to get out of the bed. I’m going to open the closet but I don’t want to. I know something bad is going to happen. But I open the door and there’s nothing, but it’s too dark to actually see anything. I lean further into the closet. It’s colder in the closet than in the room. I feel a hand pull my hand off the knob and drag me further in. I fall and I keep falling. I don’t stop falling till I wake up, and it gets colder as I fall. I feel my blood freeze in my veins. It's like the dream’s…

    He stopped laughing suddenly, looked me dead in the eye, and yelled, “Dónde está el dinero?” I had no idea what he said so I just sat there and said nothing. He didn’t act happy about that and dragged me into a pitch black room. He slammed the metal door shut and I was all alone. I waited in that room for what seemed like a week, but it could have really been five minutes. I started to have voracious hunger building up inside of me and it started to become a nuisance. I thought about whether anyone noticed I was gone yet, and if my family was safe. Suddenly, the door swung wide open and another man stood in the doorway. He looked like he pulverized crocodiles for a living. He had tattoo of a snake running all the way down his arm. I started to recede towards the back of the room. He said in a rough Mexican accent, “If you don’t give money back you feel much pain.” I told him that I had no idea what he was talking about and that I didn’t take any money from anybody. He glared at me and dragged me out of the room by my shirt collar. I was scared and about to cry as he was dragged me down a dark hallway. There was a labyrinth…

    The street was deserted and the night felt eerie and silent. There was no glimmer of light to be seen. Sweat trickled down his back, his stomach was churning , and his knees felt weak, but he still hurried on not daring to look back now. Blindly he stumbled into an alley. There he searched through his stolen goods. Abruptly he heard foot stepts closing in on him. In the distance he could see red and blue lights flashing. In panic, he began to run. He bashed into bins and tripped over cracks in the path, desperately trying to find his way out of the alley.…
