Thirst

The pain was unbearable. Hot knives slashed against my skin, burning my skin and setting my nerves on fire. Mind numbing, spine twisting pain, nothing I had ever felt before. Something not many had ever felt before.

No sound was emitted from my mouth, although the sheer effort it took to scream nearly killed me as much as the pain. My body was uncontrollable, writhing on the cold wooden planks of the ballet studio floor, sending itself into spasms of shaking.

My eyes, oh my eyes, how they burned. It felt like a lethal acid had been let loose in my body, burning my eyes, making it painful to blink. I could barely make out the commotion around me; only the sound was making me conscious of the situation. The distant sound of clattering and smashing, the occasional inhumane growl or roar.

Why was no one here for me? Could nobody see what was happening?
How could they not notice a young girl, curled up on the floor, unable to free herself from the pain that was wreaking havoc on her body.

The light was beginning to fade…the shapes that I could make out before were descending into a black nothing. Panic crept over my body, and the pain that I was experiencing seemed to multiply itself, taking over parts of my body it hadn't already. The soundless screaming coming from my mouth scared me more than the pain. I was dying, I had to accept that. My death was destined to be a painful accident, pulling me from the ones I love…

My mind, flooded with a million thoughts of love, life and loss, slowly began to shut down, leaving me in a state of numbness, no longer feeling the great pain shooting through every single vain.
All my senses shut down, leaving me as nothing but a motionless body…
