It was already a couple of hours after midnight. The full moon shone above the dark and gloomy sky. And the atmosphere where they were held captive matched Daniel's inner thoughts and emotions — dark and gloomy.
It was such a foreign feeling for him and yet, he did not find it out of place. It was the first time that he felt it though it seemed like he was already accustomed... like it belonged to him.
He approached the door and when he opened it, the two guards who stood outside turned to his direction and before they could even utter a sound, Daniel had already struck a blow on their necks. The two guards choked on the heavy hits, gasping for air to stay sane but Daniel did not stop there – he banged their heads on the wall and they fell on the ground with a thud.
