I step outside this too-rich-for-me -to-estimate room and enter a dimly lit corridor. Many doors open into the corridor and see shadows running in a hurry at the end of the corridor. Something is happening and I need to know what exactly is wrong with this place.
I open the room next to me and a weird set of instruments is kept on the desk. Are they surgeons ? because these instruments look a lot like the one I saw at my doctor uncle's place.
I slowly enter the room, a single light hangs over the desk with instruments.
"Anyone here ?"
"uhmmm uhmm" a voice is all I hear.
I turn on the lights and what I see in front of me, the sight itself won't let me sleep for another 2 weeks for sure.

A man, covered with blood is tied to two chains hanging from the ceiling. His skin barely visible as blood oozed out of every cut he had on him. My eyes shifted to the floor and bile rised to my mouth. Two other men lying dead on the floor with a pool of red blood around them.
I emptied whatever my stomach had and my breathing became too fast.

"If she starts panicking, how will she get me out of here ?" I hear the man's voice in my head.

" Do you think this is something I see everyday you stupid hanging piece of fresh meat ?!? atleast let me understand what's going on !! " I shout at this man.

I inhale and exhale deeply, remembering the meditation sessions I used to see on the tv but instead of calming down, the smell of blood and dead filled my lungs and I vomited again.
I hold to the walls and slowly move towards the stranger hanging in the center. Blood on the floor enters my shoes and I just imagine it's water because I need to get out of this place before I vomit MY blood too.

I unlock the lock with the keys hanging near the chains and the man falls down on his knees. I open the cloth around his mouth and try holding him against me but this man is GIANT. Almost 6 feet and filled with muscles.
In normal circumstances,I would have loved admiring him but he was covered in blood and the room was drowned in blood and I smelled blood and I could now feel my blood getting cold. So I supported his body weight on me and moved towards the door.

"Everything will be alright, everything will be alright" I tell myself.
"You don't look like you belong here" he says.
Seriously ? this is the time he thinks it's valid to ask me things
" Stop your crap and tell me the way to exit".
