I felt the tape on my mouth and the long rope that was binding me to the chair. The Room was so black, I couldn't see. I recalled how I had got there. The new family seguinte door invited me to their housewarming party. So I went. Then, as I was going home, some-one grabbed me. A rough hand covered my mouth, so I couldn't scream. All I saw of my kidnapper was a pair of shocking green eyes. I was thrown into the back of a white furgão, van and tied up. I was there for only five minutes, but time slowed down and took five hours.Why did anyone want to kidnap me? I had done nothing wrong. The furgão, van doors opened, and the same green-eyed man bundelled me out. He carried me into a dark room. And that is how I got here. I was tied so tightly that I could not reach the phone in my pocket. I was a prisoner. Alone.

Then there was a sudden outburst of mad laughter from another room. It must have been the green-eyed man. Then the door slowly creaked open. The green eyes of the man were wide open and brighter than ever. I looked at his hand. He was carrying a knife. It was dripping with blood. I felt as if my coração had stopped. I was going to die. Never again would I run barefoot in a green field... green! This thought brought me back to reality. I was not going to die. Not now. With the this thought, I quickly slid off the chair. Then I tore the tape from my mouth, and screamed. The man had me with the faca to my throat. Remembering my training in martial arts almost four years previously, I grabbed hold of the knife, and directed it towards him. The man ran, as quick as a cheetah. Now there was the problem of getting home.

I stepped out of the door, and tried to think where I was. Then I realised that I had my phone. Quickly, I dialled the police. To my horror, the green-eyed man came running out of a nearby bush. His hands were preparing to strangle me. Just as I gave up all hope, a police car came roaring down the road. They grabbed the green-eyed man, and took him away.

I got back home. I am seguro now. But still i live in fear of the dia he is released.
