"So mom i was think-" I stared in horror as I watched the life seem to fade from her eyes, pleading me to run and find shelter. From somewhere that isn't here. "Mom?" I softly questioned her eyes still screaming; slowly yet softly she moved her mouth.
"Run" she mummbled, the man looking at me with an intent that sent a shrill chill down my back.
The blood oozing from her mouth as she continues to mumble things that are to incoherent because of the blood clogging her throat. She is a strong woman? Why couldnt she dispose of him herse.f? She has before. But now it seems she's left defenseless and dead, and where am i placed in all of this? I stumbled backwards reaching into the house, i dont think i can comprehend this.
"Well now thats out of way..." he threw her body roughly onto the ground, as she if she was piece of dirt. "How dare you" i yelled at the man, his black hair in a crop cut and his seemingly black eyes holding any sense of moral remorse for the life he'd taken. It angered her to see how he disregarded the world with such a lack of care.
"How dare i? Well, you see, i saw i good profit and the little lady could have agreed but, instead she said 'no' and now shes dead and cant even gain a pro]fit." His voice is so calm for someone who just killed a woman in cold blood. Tears muddled my dark eyes, and my lower lip had found it's way under my teeth, heavily i sucked in a shaky breath. "What are you gonna cry now, now that's your mommy's dead?"
I looked down at the Lush grAss. She's g0ne forever. And I'll never get to see he again. Tears started to flow down my face like heavy rain on window. "Come on lets go" he grabbed my hands and put them together, binding them with heavy cuffs. Why won't i put up a fight like normally do? Fear Panged at my angry soul and i found myself glaring at the tall man angrily, feeling a tug at the cuffs, i leaned back, "Im not going anywhere you prick" i gritted out, my hands stubbornly infront of me.
"Oh? Fiesty one are you" he chided as i turned around and stared back at her body, and in a rash decision i darted for her. I need a goodbye.
"Oh no you dont, im on a schedule and i think youll sell for a pretty penny, so lets go." I let out small shriek as i yanked backwards, my body flailing as i flew through the sky and back onto the ground with a thud. He walked over to me and leaned over, his eyes full of malice, with a fearful look in my eyes i stared up. "Why did you do this?" Awkward impulses of anger kept taking me over and with them i acted brash, quickly i kicked my leg up, almost knocking him in the face. But he's quick and caught it before i could really do anything, taking my leg, he held and grabbed a piece of rope from his side. With horror in my eyes i stated to flail around kicking, scratching, hitting, anything. But none of it worked, he just held me down and tied me up like a roast. Picking me up, i continued to flail, a now added course of screaming added to my charade of 'let me go', and as i much as i wish he did, he didnt.
taking the moment i lifted my head up, i stared at the fading part of my life. The old wood cabin sitting tucked away in the woods with moss and vines crawling up its side and onto the roof that'd sometimes leak in the rain. The way the green grass would litter itself with yellow weeds and pink; purple flowers, the old door that creak when mom would call me in from playing outside. Trees that'd surround themselves with vines, snakes, slugs, and other types of bugs that i had made friends of. Softly i glanced over to mom, her body in an almost fetal position, blood pooling around her wild head of curls. There's too many memories to think of, she's not just a memory, she's a part of me. How can i go on without her? Everything always boiled down to her good judgement of things. What will i do now.
tears gushed down even harder as i found myself being taken over in heart burning sob, i cant see her anymore. "Mom!" I screamed through a burning throat. "Why cant i see you?" I choked out, her entire form completely vanished from my eyes, but her smell seemingly enveloping me, but also the smell of her blood. It makes my blood boil, but there's nothing i can do.
"Shut it wont'cha" his voice feels so far away, everything does, the only thing that feels moderetly close is moms smell, and the blood. Suddenly everything went black at the feeling of a blunt force whammed itself onto my head, the blackness giving me at least some sort of comfort.
There's a throbbing pain in my head, rolling over i went onto my knees and buckled over at the intense pain soaring through my head. Letting out a groan i stuffed my hands into my thick hair to try rub the pain away from my head. "This sucks" i mummbled as i continued to gently massage my head.
i layed there like that, for a bit, the pain from my head slowly fading away as a new pain had made itself accostumed to me. A deep sorrow raked at my head and now heart over the amount of stuff thats manged to happen in the short amount of time that I've been here. Tears pooled at my eyes and slowly leaked down, my face burning from the salt.
" why you's cryin'" a Shrill scream erupted from my mouth as i watched a woman crawl out of the shadows. Her long brown hair dragging on the floor and blue eyes that are sparking with insanity. Quickly i crawled back away from her, suddenly taking in the fact that im surrently in a cell and trapped with the crazy lady. "Get away fro-" i was quickly cut off as she grabbed my leg and pulled me forward and underneath her. How can one day go so possibly wrong? I thought in panic as she pet my head.
"Oo what pretty hair you have...' she rolled off of me, and lifted me up so im now sitting like a doll. "Can i brush your hair" her voice giddy as she continued to drag her bony fingers through my course and slightly curly hair.
'Uh" i cant say anything, no matter how hard i try nothing wont come out. Why? Out of nowhere i felt a harsh tug as brush yanked my hair backwards causing a loud hiss from my objecting hair. Tears continued to flow down my face as she yanks my hair out, i miss mom. The tears seemed to only get worse as i thought of my old life. I gave a small laugh, never thought id see the day where my life was old.
"S'whats so funny" she asked in a crazed manner as if i was thinking about her.
"Nothing" i mummbled, somehow the laughter became more brash and hysterical while the tears old poured harder. "What're you laughing at!?" She screamed as she pun me around, eyes squinting so hard from my hysterical laughter that i cant even see her. "Stop laughing!" She quickly brought her hand and smacked my face, but the only thing I can do is laugh with exzurbant tears that seem to hold my body. Falling to the side with a thud, i laid there, my laughter dying down and just turning into loud sobs that i couldn't control no matter how hard i try. Why cant i stop crying?
Feeling a caress on my cheek i looked up, shes staring me with a looming smile that only sends chills down my spine. With a terrified face i only watched as she continued to move her hands around me. What is she doing? I don't like this. Turning my very pale and horror I fed face away, i stared at the wall. But she only grabbed my head and turned my face so I'd looked at her. 'Whatre you doing" is whispered as shivers raked my body
"Im making you feel better silly" she let out loud cackle as she continued to so whatever shes doing. "Do you not like me" i nodded my head so she wouldn't do anything crazy. "Tell me you love me!" She pulled me up my checks and pressed her nose to mine. Her eyes belgeriant to the world around her, is this what i have to look forward to?
"I-i-i l-l-lo-ve you" i butchered the words as she pressed her lips to mine, but i only roughly pushed her away and scooted to the back of the corner, ignoring the look shes shooting my way.
I cant do this anymore, mumbled some soft words of a spell, i sent an illusion of myself to her, letting her do whatever she wanted. The darkness shrouding me away, the illsuision seeming so real that she didnt even realize that she could go through it. Some things are truly terrifying. When she eventually crawled back to the shadows, i had the illusion crawl back to me and disapated it. How long has it been" the only light was a torch that sat on the wall across the bars. Dimly lighting the room. Softly i yawned, the stress of the day taking its toll on me and yet again i had found myself caving in to the darkness that already sorounds me so much.
