A Journey To Hell

“Where am I? Where am I?!


I was screaming that battle cry for too long and I never got an answer, not one.


You’ll probably want to

Know how I got there, I honestly never knew! all I remembered was walking home from school after a busy day and suddenly BANG! I was there.


When my eyes fluttered open, I simply saw black; just black. I tried moving but the darkness just still stayed there. When I tapped my head to see what was keeping me in this duvet of darkness, I found out that I was blindfolded with duct tape. I was so stunned!


When a woman all of a sudden took the duct tape from my eyes which felt more painful than the scratch of a lion, I noticed that I was on a dull dark car with a woman glaring at me with so much hatred that she was ready to kill. Is this really the time I die?


When the squealing of wheels stopped at an abandoned power station, a hooded man with enormous claws opened the car door and threw me out onto the floor. When I lifted my head up to see my surroundings, all I could see was a dirty orange sky and a gate which looked as grey as a gargoyle. Is this a sign? Is this a warning?


When the woman vigorously picked me up from the ground and dragged me into the power plant, the pungent smell of decay and rotten floorboards filled my lungs with such disgust. When I made it to a blackened cell above a flight of stairs, the girl threw me onto the bed and hissed something that made a bundle of anxiety go straight through me; what on earth is going on?


“You know why you’re here lad so don’t even go there! You won’t be going anywhere until you give us a good reason to actually let you go”!


As the woman left the room without a second look, I was simply stuck in the cell. When I slowly stood up off the bed, I noticed a piece of paper attached to the wall so as I crept over to the wall to see whet it said, my fear driven straight into my heart like I was thing stabbed. Is this actually happening?


“Tony Broughton for extermination at 4:00 today”.


Firstly, how did the people know my name and most importantly, why am

I getting exterminated if I haven’t gone anything! Is this some sick joke? When I when I crept over to the bars of my cell, I heard deafening drilling coming from downstairs. I tried to get a glimpse of what was going on for stairs but the gates were too narrow to actually see what was going on downstairs; is this a bad dream?


Suddenly, the man who was the driver at the time shone a blinding light right into my pupils and stayed there for what felt like two hours. When I stopped whimpering from the pain of the light, I quietly asked the man about the extermination but I received no answer; just a nod and a walk, nothing else.


With the man going downstairs and his gun that the man dropped earlier resting at thr door of my depressing cell, I used my entire body weight to grab the gun which in turn destroyed the cell door. I was finally free but I knew the night wasn’t over; nowhere near over.


I with the gun still in hand which looked as golden as a mansion key, I slowly crept down with a fierce glare on my face and when I noticed the hooded man…


BANG! The bullet pierced straight through him and he crumpled to the ground with such slowness. I knew I was almost there. When the woman reacted with tons of shock and walked closer to the man, i shot a bullet at the woman which led to her crumpling to the ground in s faster motion. I felt free, finally free.


As I ran down the steps and swung the door open with the gun still in my hand, a police officer was

stood at the door glaring at me with such adrenaline. When he ordered me to turn around and put the gun down. I felt my life fading, my happiness fading, my freedom fading. At least I did what I could to save myself; if it was even enough for society.
