Dropped off home stitched
bandaged
refused pain pills
heck of a day
hell of a finale
to sit back
this battered leather sofa
and just enjoy silence...
box from rose
had gloves and a vest inside
both a mix
kevlar
titanium
today just a taste then?
eh rose
the teacher and others gifts
cookies
sweets
cards
letters
thank you girl of blood
thank you girl of rage
goddess of fists
angel of hope?
that made me smile
that day another place
random hell
i just had the thought
survive
or anger?
my first battle....
the first rush
of mindless adrenaline...
huh my phones ringing
"nya nya nya"
yeah hi lio
cant sleep ?
yeah just game
or exercise....
yes i said exercise
push ups
hit something
relax...
wow didnt know u had such a mouth on u
such words .....
heh good night lio
take my own advice
well i would but
when your arm hurts flexing a finger
best to just game
tv on
i become a nobody in a blue jump suit
a vague quest possibly in that direction
or so the quest arrow says...
time passed
sneaking
frozen time shots
to...
too...
the smell burning wood
air thick
hot
screams
my knees hurt
did i fall?
ears ringing
wipe my right eye
fingers red looking down
move girl
MOVE!
through a door
full shoulder near the lock
corridor empty?
what where?
voices muffled
foot falls getting close
blur of motion i spun
elbow making contact with
something..
heard a crack
a thud to the floor
someone face covered
bandana
ski goggles
they groaned
i stomped there face
more voices
run girl....
still no one
turn after turn
into a stair well
some one quite far below
peering over the rail
fuck you....
leaping down
my fist to their skull
damn that hurt
shaking right arm
the body cushioned my fall
run on
run fast
kicked open 2 doors
maybe 3
no flames
but quiet
run on
another in my way
behind crashing
maybe a roof fell in
didn't look
my back was hot
run forward
grabbing a metal rod from the ground
ceiling tile chunk still attached
the masked person surprised
or i hit them well
gah and grunt
body hit the ground
feeling so nauseous
through another door
the cool air
a welcome wall
staggering
into an e.m.t's arms
just the start of a dark day....
eye opened
on the floor
tv was on stand by
console as well
every where hurt...
no fire?
just a dream
a dream...
i taste blood...
bathroom called
my cheek stitches where weeping
a thin stream of blood falling
reaching both lips
cant be bothered to change my uniform
as rough as it looked
even though it smelled
half an hour to make food
get the bus
left the house locking the door
toast in mouth
crisp and soda cans in bag
silent vow made
im sleeping all weekend....
