the low sound of buzzing insects brought me out of my slumber, the feeling of things crawling on my back. *crumch* I kept my head low, my bangs shading my eyes from a set of pearing eyes that belong to a pair of black boots. I watched through hooded eyes as the black slacked knees squatted and put their pointer finger under my chin. Lifting my head, a man with brown hair and blue eyes is staring at me. Concern heavily laced in his light blue eyes. "Are you ok?" His voice is kind of hi-pitched. "No" my voice harsh and almost gurgled. "Here let me" i watched as he cut the rope, my arms flying down at my side, my body being gently put on the ground. I thought I was hanging? As soon as he moved me pain ricocheted throughout my body, "AHhhHH" my voice rung out, my scream not able to hold its pitch.
"I'll be back, hold on, ok?" His voice is full of concern, I don't like it. Shifting my gaze, I stared at the barn door, frivolous ginger hair stared at me, a grin on her square face. Her hair making her light skin seem ghostly. Is she death? Tears bubbled in my eyes as her body morphed into a mass of black, expanding till it took up all the of space. Oh, i understand. Everything went black and hazy as i struggled to lift my head up. Why is my head so fat? My head dropped onto the ground with a thud. My face landing in a little pool blood. Neasousea tickled at me, then out of no where, i was hit full force. My body lurched as i puked last nights dinner, it burns. As i puked the pain from earlier made a comeback. Trying to ignore the pain i focused on the bugs nestling in my back. As the darkness faded away i looked at the now setting sun. Waves of orange and pink, almost like my hair, burned into the sky. The sun glowing like a hot ember, pale lilac clouds streaking the pretty sky. Looking away, i found myself enraptured by the cold and dead grass. Im surprised there's even bugs. The cold never bothered me, but for the first time in my small forever; i felt it. I shivered viciously as the cold took over my body, sweat beading on my forehead, my temples throbbing. In a weak attempt i tried to move my arm, a loud howl interrupting my movement as tremors of pain shot through my shoulder, then back. Hot tears bubbled yet again. Im tired of crying, why do i cry so much? The tears tracked down the side of my face, almost feeling like licks of the whip themselves.
"Aye, aye, aye! Calm down" my eyes widened as i rolled my self away; hasty choice. I screeched as a tremor of pain rocketed throughout my body, instantly hands grabbed roughly at my arms and pulled my back on my side. "Calm down, youre leaving. Im gonna take care of ya." He voiced calmly as he caressed my good cheek. "Im going to have my people move you. Ok?" I didnt say anything, catching my drift he stood up and ran in the opposite direction of the house. I groaned as more pain convulsed through out my body, i just wish it'd stop. My back is numb, but it hurts at the same time. A small infinity carried on, then, my body was suddenly being moved. Yet again, hasty choice. Every time they moved a new pulsating pain shot through me. The man from them before sternly yelling to be gentle, or something like it, im not sure. I cant really hear through the throbbing, or maybe its the screaming, is that me? I think it is.
Suddenly everything became numb as the prick of my arm. "Heh… heh" i said lowly as my body finally accepted sleep. Blackness finally taking me fully over, i hope i dont wake up after this. I really do.
Unfortunetly, my wish didnt come true. I opened my groggy eyes, the sunlight burning them to oblivion. Slowly they adjusted, and i found myself in the center of a big room. I looked around, the walls are painted a light baige and have white trim. A large armour stands infront of the bed I'm in, a chair tucked in the corner next to it. Finally a large open window sits on the wall with a long billowy curtain; it almost reminds me of masters home. Their faces flashed through my mind, i hope zenra is alright. Tears started to well in my eyes, frowning, i opened my mouth. "I wil not cry anymore" I hardened my face and glowered at the window, the sunlight burning way for my new resolve.
Knock knock i looked up, i got a clear view of the man now. He's older than he sounds, he seems about 30-50 years old, grays lightly growing in on the side of my head. His eyes lightly lined from age. He smiled at me and walked in, sitting on the bed he stared at me. "How're you feeling?" He spoke softly his voice far younger than he appeared. "Fine" i spoke curtly, Evrything feels so forgein, especially the bed. My clothes… robes. "Where are my old clothes?"my eyes poignant as I burned holes into his blue, his face turning bright red at the stare. "Uh… down stairs, they're being washed" something seems weird about this, moving the blankets I stood up, ignoring my sore body. "What'd you want with me?" He shot me a look of confusion as I stitpulated his cause of taking me here. "Nothing, i wanted someone to keep me company. It gets lonely here" I crossed my arms, "so why not get married?" I asked curiously as I eased up to his friendly demor, taking a seat next to him. Looking up at him I watched as he turned to me with a smile, oh god. "Well that is what you're here for!" He spoke happily, while I, on the other hand, froze. "W-wife. I-I-im only 11" my body ran ice cold as he lazily put a arm over my shoulder. "I know…" he said it as if it was no problem. Suddenly I found myself breaking my vow that I had made merely minutes ago. My eyes glasses over and thin streams of tears ran down my face. "Why're you crying?" His voice confused, as he rubbed my arm, bringing me in for a hug. At the action, my thoughts became choked as a wail bursted through my lungs. "I wanna go home!" I wailed through tears, my hand grabbing the sheet, clenchinh my fist. I listened as he placed a gentle kiss on my forehead, "why you are home silly!"
The words only made me wail louder. Why does life do this to me? Why set me up for this? First,mom get killed over me; then I get kidnapped, abused by some crazy lady, sold into slavery, get beat just about everyday, and now to add the icing on the cake! I get sold to fucking weirdo who marries kids!? I tried it lightly push myself of his grip, but it only did no good, he merely clung on tighter. "Isn't it great honey? This life?" A headache squeezed painfully at my head and my back started to throb. I give up, I sighed as the thought laced itself into my head. I leaned my head down, the world seeming so distant, as if I couldn't even touch it. Say aye I jerked, sucking a sharp breath I looked around. "Ok?" His voice brought me out of my thoughts, "uh yeah" my voice quiet, losing its normal luster. Is this how I'm gonna sound? I sound dead; but I also kind of feel it too. Everything seemed to become hazy and my breathing picked up, still choked up from my previous hysterics. Calm down, I can't, why not? My body seemed to choke itself as he shook me in confusion, "Mercy!" He screamed as he continued to stare his blue eyes into my brown. It all just seems like too much, I looked in front of me.
An illusion; grays and whites suddenly morphed into a woman. "Mom" I muttered as she softly walked to me, her gaze caring and docile. "It's okay memmy, I'm here" her hand brushed soothing over my forehead and trekked down to my eyes, softly mulling my eyelids shut. "Ok" my voice barely above a whisper as I let her close my eyes and guide me to another oblivion.
