"Just a little closer kid." You're almost there." She whispered to herself in an effort to console her anxiety.
As she groped the walls, she walked straight into someone! She gasped in a startled fashion, and then sighed in relief. "I'm sorry. Can you tell me which way the crowd is moving?"
There was no reply. In the darkness, Peggy could make out two robed and hooded figures. Suddenly, the figures grabbed her and began dragging her down the dark hallway! Peggy tried to fight the two of them off, screaming, and demanding for them to let her go, but they were too strong for her to escape their grasp.
They continued dragging her down the corridor, never speaking a word. Peggy figured since she was obviously caught, she might as well confess, and get it done. "Okay! You caught me." You can let me go now." I won't give you any more trouble."
Again, no response. No indication at all that they even heard her!One of the two robed figures swung open a door. The door marked the entrance to a large room. Peggy asked in a concerned voice, "Is this the exit? Where are we?"
The shadowy figures brought her to what felt like the middle of the room. She could hardly see anything. Just outlines of what appeared to be a stone floor. The room was empty except a large, heavy looking piece of furniture. Peggy could not quite make out what it was. She wasn't sure what is was, but the figures were leading her there, leading her toward it. Suddenly, the two figures began grabbing at Peggy's clothes. Peggy fought like crazy to keep them away, but they grabbed her harder, and started stripping her of her shorts, and T-shirt!
"What the Hell is going on here? What are you doing to me?"
The silent captors finished their stripping job, and replaced the garments with a burlap material, which fit like a short skirt set. Her sneakers and socks were also removed, and replaced with leather slippers. A rope was tied around the waist of the garment to serve as a belt, after which time, Peggy was forced to the floor.
Her back was pressed up against a thick wooden post, and her wrists were bound behind her back, around it, with several loops of braided rope. As one figure tied her hands, the other sat on her legs to keep them from kicking. Peggy was fighting as hard as she could, but to no avail. After her wrists were secured, each figure held a leg, and began removing the corresponding slipper.
The struggling girl's ankles were firmly placed on what felt like a padded ledge. It wasn't until she heard the "Bang" of wood on wood, that she realized she could not move her ankles. Whatever they had placed her in, was holding her fast, with no slack for mobility! After a few seconds, it occurred to Peggy what she had been placed in. "Stocks! Oh my God! This is impossible! What's going on? Someone talk to me! Please!"
She still got no response from her shadowy captors. Instead, one of them walked over to her and placed a pillow under her buttocks, and behind her head. She could not figure out what the reason for this was, and she really did not care. All Peggy could think about was getting the hell out of there.
Suddenly, and with no warning, a gag, with a long strap was fitted into the terrified girl's mouth, and buckled tightly around the pole, pinning her head to it. Her head was now completely immobile, and her eyes were wide with fear and anxiety as they scanned the room for some kind of clue where she was. The two captors exited the room, leaving poor Peggy bound helplessly and unable to speak!
After about 15 minutes, she could hear what sounded like pipe organ music in the distance. The sound grew closer and closer, and Peggy strained to scream for help. As the eerie music played on, a dim, red light went on, slightly illuminating the room with an iridescent glow. What Peggy saw was shocking. She gasped at the sight. The room she was in was decorated exactly like a medieval dungeon, complete with manacles on the mortar and stone walls. Her situation became even more desperate as she saw part of the wall in front of her slide open to reveal a giant Plexi-Glass viewing window! Standing on the other side of it, were all the people who paid for their tickets to see this!
