I tried to sleep, but with a castle that houses THIS many Nobodies who have soo many quarrels... it was like trying to sleep in the middle of school grounds while the kids are on recess. but thats not the only reason, visions of my past kept goig through my mind, taunting me and making a peaceful sleep impossible.
I continued lying down facing the window, I closed my eyes and tried to imagine the veiw that i used to have from my window, a landscape of the desert city
The city streched on, and became fused with the desert that surrounded it's borders... BLOOD all over me, my hands were covered in it, i tried to wipe away the tears but then the blood smeared on my face, it wouldn't come off it stained my hands....
No, i opened my eyes and looked at my hands they were clean, for now. i sat up, tryng to go to sleep would be useless. I went to my wardrobe and opened it a second time, i bent down and opened the chest that was at the bottom near my shoes. Inside was my crown, the crown i had worn throughout most of my life as a somebody. I brushed the fine layer of dust off and sat crossed legged on the ground. It hadn't been that long, i became a nobody only a year ago, and i had been a princess a year before that.
I've gone from castle, to streets, to dungeon, to streets, to castle, in only two years. A continuing circle, hopefuly it's stopped and i won't have to go back to Dungeon, my worst nightmare.
I hung chained to the wall, all i could do was stand and i was only ever able to make it to my knees when i wanted a rest. A chain around my neck, both my wrist and both my ankles. The darkness around me had scared me when i had first been thrown in this hovel, but the chains were much worse... the darkness began to creep closer and closer until i could feel it in my very heart. The cahins broke, i was free... but i would never be free from the darkness.....
I've had enough of this, remembering the past. I placed my crown back in the box ontop of my regal clothes, i shut the box but this time i locked it with a pad-lock and placed the key at the base of my snapping turtle fern, it was vicous... i wasn't even able to place the key gently at the base i had to throw it in... this way if i wanted to see my past relics i had to be prepared for the pain it would cost, both physical and mental....
