The Blue Dress

The splash of the cold cringing water woke him up from his tired slumber. He came to, his senses blurred and his eyes dizzy. He felt to stretch his arms and legs as he had a rather uncomfortable sleep but to his surprise,  his hands and feet were tied to the rather old but sturdy chair with a man holdig a pail bucket in his hand facing him and with him, were two other guys whose faces screamed pain. Jeremy is still having a hard time recollecting who these guys were and how he got there when a solid disgusting punched swerved his face to the far corner of the room. The sight he caught was rather terrifying; a dead man body. Jeremy really knew at that time that things were truly real and that he was in a trouble. His face still hurting , he heard a question from one of the men in the room saying "Where is she ?! " . Jeremy questioned himself to think and asked the hefty man " Who are you talking about ?!" ... no one answered him and the men all proceeded to leave the room slamming the door shut behind them.

Jeremy was relieved as he had time to catch his breath and try to think things through as to how he got into this situation, the dead man body in the room and who the henchmen ~ as they kind of looked like one ~ were talking about. All he could piece together was that it was a Friday and he closed from work to go home. He drove home and on getting home he showered, ate and watched some movies. He was a single man so he went clubbing with his friend, Sean that night. It then struck him ... " Where the hell is Sean ?" .

Jeremy was glitched with a memory that the dead man body lying down on the floor in the room was Sean!

He argued with his subconscious and stopped to catch his breath for a second as he was binge thinking all what could have happened. He then took the liberty to scan through the room with his eyes and what he saw was as frightening as his situation. Blood stains, torture tools, bullet shells and the stench foul odour of the room all moved him to tears and no sooner had the men come in again.  The shirt colour of one one the henchmen, the colour Blue struck a memory to Jeremy but it was all blurry and unplaced. They took the liberty of telling him that they had killed his friend and that he was laying over there , it then occurred to Jeremy that his memories were all somewhat true and that the dead body was Sean's ! 

The henchmen asked again "Where is she ?! " and he said sobbingly  " I don't know who you are talking about, I don't want to die please .... Please ! I beg you "  Unhinged and unhindered, the henchmen felt no pity . Jeremy felt a cold object on his feet and it was then he noticed he had metal braces on his feet ~ how did they get there , he muttered ~ and he saw one of the henchmen bring forth clamps to be attached to the braces on his feet and he was puzzled and still in a daze of what is to be done to him . In the flip of a Start and Stop switch, volts of electricity ran through Jeremy's body and he almost blacked out. It was then he knew what the braces were for , coming back to his senses to the deaf-sounding question of "Where is she ?! " again ; he replied saying " I don't know anything " .... the henchmen continued with the torture and after several flips of the switch which sends life threatening volts of electricity through Jeremy's body , his brain clicked and he shouted in pain and agony crying ...

... " WAS IT THE GIRL IN THE BLUE DRESS ?! "

The henchmen looked at each other and left the room , leaving Jeremy to his thoughts and all battered up.
