After three straight blows to the head, he punched me so hard I blacked out. I awoke still tied up in a chair, but I would never tell him where our secret base was hiding.
“Please! Ple-e-e-ease! Please let me go!”someone in another torture chamber yelled.
I didn’t know what would happen to me here, I certainly did not want to die here. The man who was torturing me left. All of a sudden I see him come back in with a gun. Then I hear gun shots and the man in the room laughed. I knew I was next. He aimed the pistol toward me, but then the door burst open. Then I see flashes of gunshots coming from the doorway. I see the interrogator drop dead to the floor.
A man walks in, it was the U.S. Marines, they instantly untie me from the chair. Then one of them throws me an assault rifle, it’s time to leave. As we are running out I hear explosions.
“What’s happening!” I yell
“I don’t know” One of the marines yells
Then there is an explosion I go into shell shock I can barely hear. I get helped up by another marine. They say we have to jump out the window in the river. One of the marines yells and jumps out the window. I go next, but jump to far and try to roll on my shoulder instead of going legs first. I roll and look towards the window. The last marine jumps out, but as he does the buildings explode. He is caught in the explosion and gets launched by it. He lands on his side next to me. He is alright.
We jump in the river and take a boat. They tell me to lay down, I’ve been through a lot. I lay down. I wake up to one of the marines shaking me. He says we need to get to a plane. We steal it easily with some disguise uniforms on the ship. In about 3 hours we are back in America. Soon we get to a base, one of the commanders there says I can go home, to my family.
