Heart Shaped Box
Epilogue
I felt the sharp sting in my neck before I heard them intruding. A terrifying numbness was settling into my arms, paralyzing me, but I forced myself up from the bench and swung around like a madman in chains. I think that's what they think I am. A madman. I can't be certain anymore... I've lost track of almost everything.
An angry roar left my lips, and my hips and thighs smashed into the table, sending it spiraling to the floor. Another sharp sting in the neck. My vision was turning foggy, my mind was slowing down... I didn't like not being able to think. The coldness seeping into my body was not allowing me to think, though. Three men were holding my arms now, and I was slowly sinking to the floor... I felt the cold stone bump into my knees and I collapsed, allowing the men to catch me as I fell.
"Into the tram with you, sir..."
What? What's a... tram? I wanted to ask the question, anger thick on my tongue, but I couldn't. My tongue was too swollen with the numbness, never mind the anger. My head bobbed and I swayed a few inches from the floor, held up by the net of arms. My eyes drifted shut, but I felt the floor move further away, and the swaying of the arms holding me increase.
We were moving away now, and then, they were loading me into something... Straps held me back, buckling me down to the comfortable seat... I heard a soft shushing sound, and a smooth, almost delightful female voice whisper, "I'm sorry." into my ear. And then...
Darkness.
((Okay, so I realize I am a terrible, terrible author for not finishing my other stories. But this one hit me so hard, that I almost staggered back from my own genius. I'll try to get a few more chapters in for the others, but for now... I'm going to TRY to continue with this.
Enjoy!
