Wilting Rose- HER SHINING KNIGHT

PROLOGUE

"Hah!!han!!hah!!"

Breathing heavily; my legs are aching and my knees are shaking but I cant stop, not now , not ever!  With bleeding feet and heavy head
I am running, running for my life from everything from that dark dungeon , that dark dense forest.

Continuously flowing tears and darkness of the starless night is blurring my vision. My entire body is aching and twisting  as if thousands of knives are cutting through my whole body  rooting my every new and old wounds. Howling and crying of wild animals terrifying me but I have to escape as soon as I can because this is my only chance of survival.

He must have guessed by now that I've escaped from his incarceration, his atrocities. I did several attempts to escape from his oppression before but I failed myself everytime. Whenever I tried to escape I always get caught and his punishment used to be  more harsher and brutal than the last time but this is the only time I ran this far sparking a hope for a new life deep down in my heart. He must be going neurotic realising I've ran away from his prison betraying his once in a lifetime trust that he had shown the very the first time. I have to run far away from everything, every darkness. That life was the longest and most dreaded nightmare of my life.

But now I want to find my life. I have to find my daylight which I haven't seen since ages. I don't even remember how a sun shines? Petrichor in the air after the first rain, Hell! how does the whole world dazzle during sunrise? I have to find daylight.

My life's daylight!!!

Before escape-

"Your meal.!! Boss will see you in few minutes".

Like every time a servant push my half empty plate from the little barsam of the dirty ,stinking and dark dungeon where I sat with an iron chain fasten in my legs since forever. This dungeon is 30 ft under a forest land where even a little light and air cant pass through it and even we cant sense if any human or animal passing above it. My life has been a living hell here.

I have no idea for how many hours, days,months or may be years I am in here. I have no idea of time when sun rises or sets . It is always dark here either its day or night it looks same every time of the day and night.

Probably,The time I calculated I am here it seems like it is my home now. I loosen all the hopes to ever go out to see the day light and real world and at the end it will be my only grave.

Hell!!!here I am in my dark world.

This is my routine here sitting in a corner locked in heavy chains imagining about the outer world and the people. I have no idea what actually people outside looks like. Hell!! I don't have any idea what I look like what is my appearance? I always listen to the servants talking here about the outer world at the door of the dungeon as ordered by the Boss to watch over me. Whatever I heard from them ,outer world sounds so tempting everytime I hear them talking about it, it always gives a hard blow to my desire to go roam around the world. I have a dream to see the outskirts, to meet the other human but I know it will always be a dream and one day I will die with it . In my entire life if I ever have gone out from this dungeon then only to wander around the dark jungle at night with Boss when he is in a good mood only then and most of the time I tried it as an opportunity to run away but with the long chain in my legs and the hand cuffs always failed me and as a result he used to punish me mercilessly beating me,lashing my head on walls and many more until I fall unconscious but as the time passed he was just tying me to a tree with a long rope to roam around freely and lately in our long last tour I tried to run away again by untying the rope covertly but he caught me again when I just ran a little far ,later he punished me by hanging me upside down on a tree tying my hands behind my back and burning the sole of my feet with the cinder.
