Hey readers! This is chapter 2 of Hells Isolation. If you read chapter 1, great! If you liked it, leave a review and/or pm me. If you're reading this now, great! If you have not read chapter 1 yet though, get back and read it. But anyway, here's chapter 2. Enjoy!
As Humphrey walked along the path to his imprisonment, his pure heart desired to sing. But singing was forbidden if it were possible. Every trapped soul that had been there had long lost its sign of hope. Because somehow each soul deserved to be there. But Humphrey was unrightfully sent there, and his sense of hope had yet to be diminished. But until then, he had a chance to reclaim his freedom and return to Earth. His only chance was to sing. And sing he chose to do. He stopped in his tracks, taking a deep breath as he closed his eyes, and let the song come to him on spot.
Author's Note: If you want, you can listen to the song Overburdened by Disturbed so you get the tune. Yes, this is that song that will be sung by Humphrey in this story. And yes, I know about copyright and stuff. Just enjoy this, and listen to the song if you want while you read.
"Fate is so unkind
Now I should have known
Blind leading the blind
Reaping what I've sown
If it all amounts to nothing
Why, then, am I standing in this line?
Hell is still overburdened
I must stand and wait in line
I may never know for certain
When will be my time
How was I considered evil?
Pleasures taken in this life
Someone granted me reprieval
Decades spent in strife
Led to nothing
Repeated in my mind
Led to nothing
If only I was born another time
Hell is still overburdened
I must stand and wait in line
Hell is still overburdened
How have I been so determined malign?
It's the closing of the curtain
In the play that was my life
Countless chapters left unopened
Tragedies inside
I was fighting for a reason
Holy blessed homicide
Seems I have committed treason
All I've sacrificed
Led to nothing
Repeated in my mind
Led to nothing
If only I was born another time
Hell is still overburdened
I must stand and wait in line
Hell is still overburdened
How I have been so determined malign?
Hell is still overburdened
I must stand and wait in line
Hell is still overburdened
How I have been so determined malign?
Fate is so unkind
Now I should have known
Blind leading the blind
Reaping what I've sown
If it all amounts to nothing
Why, then, am I standing in this line?
Hell is still overburdened
I must stand and wait in line
Hell is still overburdened
How I have been so determined malign?
Hell is still overburdened
I must stand and wait in line
Hell is still overburdened
How I have been so determined malign?"
Humphrey finished his performance with a sigh, knowing that was probably his last sign of hope. And that he would probably be punished worse for having done that. He also knew he would never see Kate again. So with that realization, he shed a single tear. Then that was followed by a few more, and soon he was mourning.
His grief was cut short when a couple of gargoyles approached him, snickering "This one has done what the sacred rule forbids. Take him to the boss". They then grabbed him without warning, and he struggled. But his resistance was futile. Their strength was far greater than his. His efforts were pointless. He then gave up, and layed his head low as they dragged him to the supreme ruler of the underworld. He let out a soft whimper as he now awaited his doom. Humphrey, was going to be annihilated.
