Fatigue washes over me like a wave, and I begin to fall asleep in the soft sands.
Several hours later, I wake up. I've been tied up, and slung over the back of some kind of giant insect walking across the sands. I shudder. I hate insects.
Staring at me are a gaggle of three men. They have rough and sun-worn brown skin, and have masks pulled over their faces, presumably to protect themselves from the dust. Besides that, they're almost naked. They're muttering among themselves, and for some reason, I understand them in perfect English.
"She's awake. I'm not sure about this..."
"Stop your worrying, Jagi. She's the one we're looking for, I know it."
"It's not that. It's just that..."
"Excuse me!" I demand angrily. "Where are you taking me."
