If I Ever Get Kidnapped, Send Babayaga.

I’ve always wondered what it would feel like to be in real danger, the kind of situation where you desperately need someone to swoop in and save you. I have been in different kinds of danger, but not like that of being kidnapped. Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m not planning to get kidnapped anytime soon (God forbid 😂), but let’s be honest, our minds sometimes wander into these “what if” scenarios. I remember always thinking of scenarios where terrorists entered my class, and I had to save everyone, but I have grown now, and I wouldn't even want to encounter such an event. And here’s the fun part: if I had to choose one fictional character to come rescue me, who would it be? A bold hero or a clever villain, or maybe that one unpredictable character who doesn’t play by the rules? Their personality, their methods, even how far they’re willing to go, all of it would matter. After thinking of all of this, there is only one person I can think of right now, and that person is "John Wick."

John Wick is a very popular anti hero and for many people who have seen the movie "John Wick" would understand that, if I am this man own, and I get kidnapped or injure, there is no length he wouldn't go to make sure I am rescue and for the kidnappers, I have nothing to say about that.

The reason I picked John Wick is because of his dedication to the cause; he is a man of focus and can never be easily distracted. There are many heroes and villains out there who, because of a little distraction and loss of focus, lost a lot of things, but when this man put his mind to something, he would make sure that thing was settled before doing anything else.

A man whose son killed John Wick's dog has one thing to say to his son after his son bragged that they have more men who can protect him, and besides, John Wick is just a man, so how will he get him? He said.

I can assure you that the stories you hear about this man, if nothing else, have been watered down.

Then went on to hug his son because he knew the kind of danger the son was in. Now, imagine John Wick was given the information to come rescue me, with such focus, I know that at the end of the day, none of the kidnappers will live to tell the story.

Then John Wick goes on and pull up a line like this when they ask him what he would need to come rescue me

Guns. Lots of guns.

I'll just be chilling with my kidnappers and be singing the song for them
"Jerusalem on high
My song and city is;
My home whene'er I die,
The center of my bliss."

"Oh, happy place!
When shall I be,
My God, with thee
To see your face?"

I am sure, only a few of them would know the meaning, but I will be happy to sing them a crossing over to the afterlife song, because that's all I can give them at that time, based on my generous character. Although, they would be seeing God, they would be going straight to hell but one of them might confess his sin before John Wick do his job.

At the end of the day, the thought of being rescued by John Wick might sound extreme, but that’s exactly the point. In a world full of distractions, betrayals, and half-hearted commitments, my hero's relentless focus and loyalty stand out. He may not be the shining, noble superhero in a cape, but he is the man who will get the job done, no questions asked, no compromises made. If I ever found myself in the worst kind of danger, I wouldn’t want a hero who hesitates, I’d want a force of nature. And for me, that force has a name John Wick.
