Pain.

I feel nothing but pain as I open my eyes and look around. I’m in a cell, naked and chained against the wall. The chains tight against my wrists, open wounds on my body not healing. I haven’t eaten more than bugs in over a week. I still dont’t know why I’m here. I woke up here and several people whipped me. They repeated this for the first few days and then just stopped. They let me hang here with the cold, rusted metal of the chains for company.

I listen for anybody near me. There hasn’t been for a while but I like to keep tabs on the situation. I look to where the chains connect to the wall and see the divot I have been digging out for a few days. The walls are made of a very weak brick that is very easy to pull apart. I’m almost done digging out the chains and I should be done today. I dig for a few hours and manage to free all the chains. I have to carry the chains with me since I can’t get them off of my wrists. I fit through the bars of my cell easily due to how starved I am. I walk through corridor after corridor, dragging the chains with me trying to find my way out. Eventually I can’t walk anymore and let the chains pull my to the ground. As I hit the ground my eyelids drooped down and I fell asleep.
