12 year old Alan was the son of a lawyer in a bustling city and he decided to widen his summer by exploring the outside world by riding his bike to unfamiliar areas. Alan decided to put on his black sweater, black jacket, blue jeans, blue Nike shoes, yellow mittens, and yellow baseball hat and he left his house with a big smile as he waved goodbye to his parents and 6 year old brother and his 11 year old sister. He walked inside his garage and flicked a switch to open it. Alan got on his bike and rode into the street and made a left hand turn into the park but he did not realize that he was being followed by three boys that were jogging into the distance. They were 11 year old Glover, 12 year old Sammy, and 13 year old Billy who is known to be the meanest bullies in Ridgewood Middle School. Alan turned another corner, but it was there in which the bullies jumped him and he fell off his bike. He was pinned down under the weight of the boys and could not move an inch. He was confused as to why some group of kids would do this to him because he is not known to cause trouble amongst other people, thus it did not make sense in this situation for him to be picked on. He let out a scream, but it was soon muffled when one of the boys put a handkerchief on his mouth rendering unable for him to utter another sound, not like it mattered because they were in an isolated area. Glover restrained his feet and hands with rope and Sammy put a blindfold on him. Finally, Billy was responsible for finishing hogtying Alan by connecting his wrists to his ankles.
All of them picked him up and took him away from the park, and led him astray to a house that was abandoned in the eastern part of the seaboard where the sound of horns can be heard in the distance. It was said that anyone who entered the abandoned house would be haunted by the spirits that once lived there in the 1800’s, but none of the boys took it seriously. There was dust everywhere in the house and on the left hand side of the living room was a couch in which the bullied put down Alan on. The bullies removed his pants, shoes, and socks. None of them had any real experiences of torture, but they knew how to make a boy squirm so they started by yanking his underwear up and Alan was not happy by this as he screamed, but it was masked by the gag. They kept the hold on it for a couple of minutes to increase the severity of the bullying. None of them had any sign of guilty conscience on their faces. This showed that it was not going to be a good day for Alan and since none of his parents was expecting him to come back home until the evening, it was also going to be a long day for him. Glover had prepared a cage of his pet spiders and he released them and put both of them on Alan’s legs and they crawled up his skin and even though it was trained not to bite, it was still a gut wrenching feeling for the victim as he was looking petrified. The spiders went onto his feet and moved their way to his toes where he was experiencing the height of his anguish because he was giggling inside because his toes were ticklish.
Alan could only lay there wondering if he could ever leave the mess that he got himself into. If he had not ventured into unfamiliar territory, the boys may not have jumped him and led him to this mansion. Now, he is regretting his decision. But, as the boys were torturing him, a shadow approached his captors without their knowledge- To be Continued
