My body jerked as something cold and wet hit my face and I gasped, trying to get away from it. Sharp pain rushed through my arms and shoulders and I looked up, staring at my bound hands and the rope that was now keeping me hanging from a menacingly-looking hook.

“Good morning,” a familiar voice spoke and my head snapped up, looking around the tiny space. I hadn’t noticed him until now, but Michael was standing with his arm crossed by the door right in front of me, a large bucket lying at his feet.
