RE WRITE:
“Unexpected Turn”
What happened? I think to myself as I wake up from the nauseating smell of decomposing rats and feces. As I begin to regain consciousness, I notice it was dark outside. The only lights that were coming in were the lights from the moon seeping through the walls. Cold breezes made its way through the cracks as well.
As I begin to get up from the cold concrete, I notice my legs are not cooperating with me. My right leg seems to be losing circulation from the oxidized chains that were around my ankle. I begin to panic and examine the place for something, anything, to break the metal chains connected to the wall. In the corner of the room, I could see a thick iron rod that would break them off me. The thing was how could I get it if I couldn’t even get up? I try to squirm to the rod, but I was restrained and deprived from moving freely. The iron rod was just out of my reach, if only my finger nails were a centimeter longer I would have had it in my grasp.
I thought that maybe I could maneuver my body to grab my red high top converses to get the rod. As quickly as possible, I extend my arm to try and move the rod toward me, I missed. I refuse to give up to die and rot in this hell hole. I try to extend my arm one more time, I do it slowly this time to make sure I get it exactly toward me. Yes, I got it. Second times the charm, right?
Relieved as I was to get the rod, now it was time to break the chains off. I hit the chains as hard as I can to get loose, easy as one, two, three. I’m FREE! Now I have to find out how to get out.
Where am I though? I look around to maybe get a hint to where I could be. Walking over to the walls is my first instinct. I see some writings that seemed to be prayers, maybe something that Chinese monks or Romans used to recite. From how the writing looks, this room must be thousands of years old! Maybe this place is some abandon monastery.
I hear something, something with heavy footsteps coming this way. Footsteps sounding as if they were being chased by someone or something. I was ready to leave, I didn’t want to stay and find out who or what that was. Inches away from leaving through the door, this huge figure appeared behind me. I couldn’t feel myself moving from this hefty, vigorous man with ripped tattered clothing, and a huge machete in his right hand. I could see the machete shining through the light. Sharp and ready for anything in it’s way. Death was in this man’s eye. This guy was ready to kill.
This guy takes deep breaths as if he was tired getting here. He looked eager though. Eager and ready to pounce.
“What do you want from me?!” I scream at him.
He begins to chuckle as if I just told him a joke.
He slowly says, “Your life.”
I knew I didn’t want to stay now, especially with someone who wants my life. I run. I run out the door and hope that I could find my way out. This monastery is so BIG! I begin to run through any door, any opening, hoping to get out. I don’t plan to die.
Each left and each right, I could hear the guy from behind me swishing his machete at me. Each time was a miss and hitting something other than me. Crash. Boom. Everything he was hitting broke. A pretty strong machete he’s got there. With one swipe, I knew I’d be a goner.
Thud. I trip over a large log just laying on the ground. I land right next to it. Swish! He tries to hit me with his machete as hard as he could, but I rolled. I rolled and got up while he was having a hard time getting his machete off the log.
My last and final left turn, I make it out. I couldn’t hear the guy behind me anymore. I see the gates leading to the outside, my way out. YES! I take the quickest look behind me and I was safe. No more worrying about some lunatic trying to chase me. I was there, almost at the gate.
BOOM!
I let out a shriek of terror, when I fall, fall deep into the sharp rigid pieces of broken glass. As it tears and penetrates my elastic skin, all I could see was blood. The blood that fills the night air with this rusty scent which engulfed my lungs.
He knew this was going to happen. I had fallen into his trap. He walked silently through the night and chuckled once more at the scream he had heard.
“Dinner time.” He says to himself.
