"We have done as you asked us to. Now can we please leave?" Siddharth asked the leader. Everyone else in the group looked at the leader with pleading eyes. Though they didn't exactly know what Siddharth said but they hoped he said what they all had in their mind.
"Yes." The leader said and added, "Leave your clothes and the car behind."
For a moment Siddharth thought he didn't hear him right. The leader understood it and chose to clarify.
"My group and I will leave in the car and you all have to strip to your skin so that none of you does any smartness of screaming for help once we leave."
"We won't scream. We promise." Siddharth hollered.
The leader came and slapped him hard. The group suffered a collective sigh.
"What is he asking?" Dharmesh asked with a dry throat.
Siddharth looked at him and then lowered his head in shame before uttering, "He wants all of us to strip naked and let them take the car."
The women looked at each other in sheer disbelief. Ankita started pleading in Hindi to let them go and promised them they won't call anybody until they are gone. Vanya did the same. The men were silent. Siddharth cared to clarify the women's plea to the leader. He snubbed Siddharth and shouted at the group.
"He would shoot us one by one if we don't strip." Siddharth translated it yet again.
With trembling hands Dharmesh unbuttoned his shirt. Then vest. After which he he doffed his pants and underwear.
"Yes." The leader said and added, "Leave your clothes and the car behind."
