My mind was so focused on what I needed to do and what I could get someone else to do that I didn't hear my front door softly click and then open. I don't remember if Jun Li was trying to talk to me or if I was just too deep into my thoughts, but I didn't even notice someone coming up behind me and hitting me across the back of my head with something hard.
I do remember the darkness though.
Walking up, I found myself once again strapped to a flat object, completely naked. "Ugh," I groaned as my head started to pound. "Jun Li, make a note that the earrings don't protect against blunt force trauma."
"Who is Jun Li?" hissed a voice from somewhere in the room. At first, I thought that it might have been a lizard, but then I realized that it was speaking English.
