What Were You Thinking, Edgar?
As the walls closed in on me I braced my arms out to stop them. Yet right as I made contact with the walls they stopped immediately. I looked around to see what had miraculously just happened and as I did I heard screams of terror and fright. Than all of a sudden silence struck as quietly as a fish swims through water. I waited for what felt like hours for a noise, any noise, but I could hear nothing. And in instant. BOOM. There was an enormous explosion. My ears rang as a flew to the ground from the tremendous force of what ever had exploded. As I came to my senses I still had a ringing in my ears and as i looked down I realized that i could move nothing from my neck down. I had become paralyzed. As i realized this I screamed for anyone or anything to hear me and it payed off. General Lasalle came walking in through the dusty room now brightened by the hole mad from the explosion. "General," I said, "Thank God you've come. I am paralyzed and I need help." He looked at me with a look of awe and said, "I am sorry, but our efforts were useless." And at that he collapsed forward and behind was another man that had stabbed him in the back. As i thought I was saved I realized I was helpless. The man walked over and whispered into my ear a language i have never heard of before. He than stood up and razed his dagger. As he did i closed my eyes and prayed for my life. Than all of a sudden he had collapsed on me. I realized he just stabbed himself and at this I yelled once again in terror and for something to get me. Days without food and water with the smell of rotting bodies stuck to you with the grip of a god. And what i believe to be the fourth day a lad came in and put me on his back and brang me to a home with a small family. He told me he would return to care for me. Yet he never returned to care for me as I would sit around with a lifeless body hoping he would so I could thank the rescuer of my life.
