Trapped.

Like a hamster in a clear plastic cage, I was trapped. I could move about as I pleased, but the restraints held me firm.

It was like I was in some sick science experiment, my freedom was waiting for my hand to reach out and take it, but I couldn't move for fear of a different hand coming down on my shoulder. There was no moving for me, I even breathed with caution. The walls had eyes, and the floor had ears.

It was maddening, knowing that what I wanted, what I needed, would always be out of my grasp but as clear as the sun that shone in my prison.

I'd sworn that no four walls would ever hold me against my will, that nothing would keep my heart caged. But it was. My wild spirit was tamed and thrown into a cell like an orphaned cub, alone and frightened.

I had no escape.

And there would be no rescue.

All I could do was wait for the word of the demise of what I loved.

That was the only way I would go free.

It was a sickening and cruel means of torture, but it kept me docile. What could I do? Who could I turn to for help?

There was a slight chance that someone would come for me, but even then... I had no way of getting out myself without having my rescuer come with me.

What was the point of freedom then?

Why would I care about the fresh air out of my cell, the sunlight that wasn't diminished by the windows then? When what I loved existed no more?

I cannot live without my life. I cannot live without my soul.

I'd be free.

But I'd be dead.

There wasn't any escape. And I wasted no hope on it. All I could do was sit there, patiently, and wait for the end to come. And I bowed my head, wishing it'd just come quickly.

There's the prologue, lol. I tried to do it in SM style (which I should never, EVER, try again.) And give away as least as possible... Don't think it worked much, lol. Anyhow! Review, review, review, I wanna know if this is worth continuing!
