Moredan Kantose and Harry Hodgson. The saga begins!
Day 802, 12:00 • Published in Russia Russia • by Capt5
Harry gently awakes in his bedroom, eyes slowly widening and adjusting to the dark. As the haze of waking up disappears, he realises that this is not his room! He’s tied down to a stained mattress in the middle of a cold, damp, dark room, which he soon identifies as a basement.
The light of the moon penetrates the basement through a small, locked window. It allows Harry to see that the ropes that hold him down are thin and worn in places, easily tear able if he manages to get some force into them. Just as Harry is about to try and test the ropes strength, he hears footsteps coming towards him from the door to his left. They steps are coming from the floor above and the stairs are probably wooden, they echo throughout the basement as each slow, heavy step is taken onto the hollow wooden staircase. The echoes stop as whoever, or whatever it is, reaches the bottom step. Deathly silence.
After a short time, a lock clicks out of place and the old brass doorknob gently turns ninety degrees. The door slowly swings open by itself –as a hinge is missing. The integrity of the door is yet to be determined, but looks old and tattered- to reveal a silhouette of man. He is a tall man, very slim, but is hunched over and the only hair seen is coming from the sides of his head, above his ears.
