Ramona’s eyes slid open, slowly, though the darkness that surrounded her was so intense, that even her emerald orbs, accustomed to darkness, had a hard time figuring where it was she was. She moved to stand but was restrained by something not allowing her to rise. She could tell she was on the ground, her back against a hard cold surface and the smells that surrounded her could only mean that she was someplace, within the Web. Her head throbbed with excruciating pain, and she noticed now, as she became more fully aware, that her hands were bound above her head with metal clamps that seemed a bit too tight, as she cold also now feel a trickle of warmth slowly making its way down her arm, a sign that it could only mean that her wrists, at some point had been cut. She tried to speak, but then realized that her mouth too, had been gagged and so was reduced to an almost silent growl. She could barely make out a couple voices in the room who seemed to be pleased with themselves.
”You did well, I can’t believe you actually stole her out from under her guardians nose, and it only cost us the fat nobleman in the process.” a rough male voice said.
”You realize, that we’ll have to keep that blind on her the entire time, what ever you do, and no matter what, do not take it off, those eyes are said to have led many a thief astray to their death before.”
“Yes, yes, well just don’t let her talk you into taking it off, its that simple.”
She realized now, why it was she couldn’t see, and though that she could just make out, through the medium weight material, their movements and at this moment, could only hope that Zak would find her. She let her head fall back down now, for the duel purpose of the throbbing and to make her captors continue to think her asleep as she listened to them talk.
