the lone sailor -part 7

they connected the wires to a big box

one of them smiled as he pressed the button

the electric shock lasted about three seconds

the pain was excruciating

the commanding officer entered the tent

so you had a taste of the electricity

that was only low level

we will go higher and longer until you confess

he told him he was not a drug smuggler

he gave his US identity details and the name of his vessel

I am just a lone sailer

you have to believe me

the uniformed officer turned a few dials and hit the button again

this time the shock was more intense and longer

he almost passed out in agony

listen Americano next time the shock might kill you

a while later he returned with a second man who was not in uniform

the commanding officer said he is all yours now and left

the second man spoke with an American accent

no more interrogation we verified your identity

he was taken outside and put in the back of a car

I am sorry you had to endure that but its over now

the car drove out of the military compound

he found sunlight painful after so many hours in a dark tent

he asked where he was being taken to

we are going to a safe house for you to rest and recover

you will not be harmed I promise

he fell asleep during the journey

they arrived and entered a large house

a smartly dressed man greeted him and said

everybody thinks you died at sea

you are the perfect candidate to work for us at the CIA
