If I was being held in a hostage situation, I would probably just do what ever the person holding me hostage tells me to do. I would be scared out of my mind in this situation. Being held hostage is like one of my top fears in my life. Which I realize it is kind of a weird thing for me to be so afraid of, because it is not very likely for me to be held hostage since no one I know has a bunch of money or anything valuable that anybody would want to receive for ransom. Regardless, it has always been a big fear of mine.
Any who, I think that if I were ever put in to a situation like that of Mary Rowlandson, I would be the most obedient hostage ever. I would be too afraid to stand up against who ever was holding me hostage, because I have seen a lot of scary movies like this and even though in many of these movies, when the person being held hostage stands up to the person holding them hostage, they get away, some times it does not work in the hostage's favor, and I think that with my luck and size/strenght, I would probably not win a battle against someone like that.
If I were held hostage, instead of trying to stand up against whoever was holding me hostage, I would try to find a way to get away secretly. I would find a way to escape from them or, if there was no way to escape, and if I still had my phone, I would call the police.
Being put in a hostage situation would not be a good feeling. I would feel scared, and alone. I would also feel hopeful, though. I would be hopeful that my family would help me get out of this situation and that the cops would catch this smooth criminal who decided to hold little old me for ransom.
Now that I am done writing this blog about being held hostage, I think I will go buy some pepper spray, just to be safe.
