At first she was dizzy and her surrounding was pitch dark . Seems like the drug effect has yet to subside from her body functions.
Gradually, she regained her senses, but , as her eyes were blindfolded she could only fall into a vast darkness. Her mouth was blocked by a piece of a cloth, she don't know where from.
Thanks to that, she can't even make any noises. She became anxious. Her hands were strongly tied behind her. The more she tried to untie it , the more entangled it became.
Her reality told her she was in a dire situation. Panic started to rush in her senses together with her weakness.
But, she forced herself to come down as she can't afford any rash choices. She gave up the struggle. She started to calmly approach her thoughts.
She was new on this land as she landed here on a space shuttle. It's definite that no one knew her here. Therefore, it cannot be a work of a known person or a personal attack.
Then could it be that when she came on a space shuttle and landed ,she alerted any scientific organization. But, she made sure to land on a black spot.
However, even if it is like that, they won't kidnap her like this as they can get help from the legal authorities to catch her.
'It can't be a work done by any scientific organization.' (She discarded this thought)
Then could it be kidnapping for ransom? But, she don't have any fancy clothing or item that can indicate if she was rich or not. Rather, her condition can be considered as a poor street child.
'Don't tell me, I got caught up in human trafficking' (She thought).
Human trafficking is vicious cycle. It's considered as modern slavery.
Moreover, more than 70% of the girl victims caught up in this situation are sold for sexual exploitation, of course, against their will.
Once someone it caught up in this, it's a miracle to get out of this unharmed.
'If it's a human trafficking then, this is bound to be a group working. If so, then , the boy I saw earlier must be a member of this gang. It's highly possible.' (She again thought)
She may have been their target from the start. Maybe when she went to buy the food. No, perhaps, they targeted her the moment she walked near the market place.
' That's right! I've seen a black micro slowing down and man making a unknown signal to a child. I didn't pay attention to it then and ignoring it I walked forward. Should I've been a little vigilant, I wouldn't have to be here today!'
But, it's of no use to think about it. She started to think of running away. But, the how would she run away?
Suddenly, she could hear foot steps nearby. With all her senses she focused on the sound. After some time it stopped a little bit far from where she was. Then she started to hear sound of talking.
'Maybe some of the members were guarding outside. They didn't seem to notice my awakening. That's a good sign though.' (she thought)
She focused on their conversation. "(One of the gang member who just walked to another) Hey, Nel, the boss told to move it with the bunch as soon as possible. Troy and his members will take those near the border to end the deal of this month."
"(The other member) When are they leaving?"
"(The gang member who had walked to the another earlier) Tomorrow. Early in the morning. Maybe, at three. By the way, did it wake up?"
"(The other member) Don't know. Didn't bother to check."
"(Hitting the head of the another guy lightly ,the gang member who had walked to the another earlier shouted) You dumb, you should watch over it. What if it runs away?"
"(The other member) Ouch...but, it can't run away! The only way to the store room is this front gate I'm guarding. There isn't even a window inside."
She could guess that the 'it' was her. About the 'bunch'? Maybe, the group of children she was about to move to.
She thought for a while.
It's indeed safer to move with many than be alone as the surveillances there are bound to lack. If she doesn't standout there , she could definitely find a way out. Rather here, she can't even move a single limb of her.
'It's so frustrating! (She thought to herself)'
"(The other member) Oh! Do we need to feed her?"
"(The gang member who had walked to him earlier) No need. It'll be a hassle. Keep it as it is and move it quickly."
'(Hearing this Sancia thought) What the...these inhuman fools are not even gonna give me food at least. (thinking of her tummy) Hah....my poor little tummy ,looks like you have live alone like me. There will no food buddies for you.'
'(Her tummy started to think) Since when he has befriended the foods? -_-"
