Chapter 2 - Chapter 2: In A Bind

4 other bikers where waiting for them with two people tied up like he was. "Here Boss, we got another 'Waker', this is our last one for today. He carried Zi out and put him down with 2 other people who were also tied up.

"Wow, we got ourselves 3 'Waker' it's our lucky day." A man with a bald head stood up of his chair made of wood. He came closer to inspect each one of them. I wonder how much we're going to get when we sell them. This one going to be pretty expensive." He stood in front of a young beautiful girl with long brown hair with a great figure. "My heart is pounding just looking at her. I'm thinking twice if I should sell her or just keep her for myself." He came closer to her face and licked her smooth flawless chick. Zi tried to head-butt him but he was kick down on the ground. "Before you tried saving someone tried saving yourself first. Now, then where was I? Oh right! I going to have some fun."

"You can't Boss, remember the last time." Interrupted the Mohawk guy.

"Tsk! We lost a lot of money that time. Just lock them in the cage and watch them carefully, I'm going to bed."

All the biker shouted, "YES, BOSS!" The muscular guy carried Zi and the other guy inside the cage, while the female biker led the girl in a separate cage. They were released from their rope and lock inside their cages. "You remember what you guys need to do. You 4 guys will watch the male 'Waker' while we 2 girls will keep watch of the female 'Waker'.

"Where are we? Why do they keep calling us 'Waker'? Zi asked to the guy beside but he only shook his head not knowing the answer to his question. He looked at the guy which was a bit shorter than him but he was wearing the same suit as him and the girl. "What your name?"

"I don't know. I don't remember anything." He replied shivering with fear.

"Be quiet!" A biker kicked the cage. "YOU ARE OUR PRISONER!"

The guy went to a corner sat down shivering while his arms wrapped around his leg.

"What is wrong with you? Why are you so afraid?" Zi sat next to him. "Everything going to be fine."

"How would you know? We might get sold to someone and only to get kill by them, the girl might get to live but me a weak, useless, little, ugly person is good at nothing but take out precious space."

Zi slapped him, "I don't know anything about you, so I can't agree anything you said about yourself but..." The cage was kicked by a biker. He whispered, "If we planned of leaving this place I need your help."

The whole place got quiet and the guy's shiver started to subsided and nod his head. "Alright! I'll do whatever I can." They shook hands. "What should we do?"

"First thing we need to do is give you a name." Zi said.

"Huh, why? Aren't we supposed to get out of this place?"

"Yes, after we give you a name. I can't always say you or the guy, or the guy with a weird hairdo. Do you know how weird that going to be?"

"What wrong with my hair?" The guy looked up and touched his hair. "I think your hair is also weird."

"Your hair is covering your eyes." Zi stood up and looked at the Mohawk biker. "Hey you, do you have a scissor or a blade I can use to cut this guy hair." He pointed at him. "Don't worry I won't do anything with it but cut this guy hair."

He thought it up for a few minutes, "Alright." He took out a scissor inside his side pouch together with a comb. "You might also need this." He gave it to Zi.

"Are you sure about that? "Asked the muscular guy.

"What they going to do cut the bar with it? Hahahaha" He laughed.

"Thanks." Zi started cutting the guy hair. "A little bit of here, a bit of there." He keep on snipping until. "It done, I even thought up a name for you. From now on your name will be Free. Once, we get out of here nothing will ever going to bind you anymore not even yourself." Zi returned the scissor and comb back.

The Mohawk biker took the scissor and gave the comb to him, "You can keep the comb. I have a lot of those in my room."

"Thank, do you have something that can keep my hair up."

"Use this I made it myself. You can also keep it." He gave him a tin can. "I use it to keep my hair up the whole day." He pointed at his hair that was standing straight up on his head. "You're a nice guy what's your name."

"My name is Zi and this is Free."

"My name is Turbo and this is Brute. That girl wearing a leather jacket is beautiful I mean is Chain and beside her with short hair is...ah Whip." He pointed two biker behind who were lying on top of a pile of boxes. "Those two pile of lump over there are Diesel and Burner. And of course you seen our boss. If we ever meet again outside there's no hard feeling we just trying to survive in this world"

He opened the tin can and took a half of the gel inside and smoother onto his hair and combed it up, "And there is no hard feeling if we got out of here before you can sell us." He smiled at them.

"Hahahaha, you really are one amusing person. Sure thing. I wonder how you going to do that."
