The man stepped forward and grabbed her arm. He dragged her inside and shut the door behind them.
The men were dressed all in black with masks over their faces.
"Where is the stone? Give me the stone!"
She shook her head 'no' and started crying.
The masked man pulled out a knife. "Don't make us hurt you too much."
"Please don't kill me. Please..." Tears poured down her cheeks.
Another masked man came in carrying a large wooden crate. He set it on the floor and opened it. Inside the box were stacks of cash and jewellery.
"Take whatever you want but please don't kill me. I don't know where it is!" She begged.
"You don't order us around, girl." One of the men said as he slapped her across the face "You get that?"
She whimpered.
"We will give you an opportunity to earn our respect," Another man said.
He turned to his partner. "I think we should let her watch what we do first."
