Being in a hostage situation is a scary thought. I actually do sometimes think about what it would be like to be in a hostage situation just so I can think of ways to get out of them.
I would feel very scared and anxious if I were to be in a situation like that. I would think about everyone that I am leaving behind and who I might not ever see again. Also, I would try to find ways to get out of it. It would obviously depend on where I am at and how I have been captured, but I have played a bunch of Nancy Drew games, so I feel that eventually I could think of a way to get out of it. The bad thing is that knowing me I would think of a way to get out and free myself when the opportunity has sailed. One of those "OH! I could have done this, but it's too late now" type of deals.
Also, I might start to try to ease and calm myself even though that wouldn't work too well. I mean it is quite difficult to be happy when you could die at any moment. I would try to think that if I do die, what a wonderful life I have had and how fortunate I was to have such a great life. I would try my best to think about that for a little bit, but then I would go back to thinking how I could get out of the sticky situation; It has been a great life, but I definitely want to continue living for a little while longer.
So those are pretty much the only things I can think of that I would do. If the situation were to be more specified, I could probably think of a way or two to get out, but that is all I can really say for sure for now.
