Stolen from paradise.
~Aria's P.O.V~
Finally, out of that nightmare. Into my own personal paradise, how I adored the rolling hills and the lush green grass. Oh, how the flowers decorated the grass so stunningly, a single solitary tree holding my prized tire swing. Then there was my cottage, my beautiful cottage. My only safe haven. Placed by the Gods to bring me comfort, only mine. No one would ever corrupt my sweet home, hardly able to contain myself from seeing her horrid face. How she had Dad so oblivious. No, no! This is my paradise! I won't let them ruin it. I took a deep breath, letting my eyes close. The fresh air filling my lungs, I couldn't help but to spin. A childlike fervor taking over my body, falling on the grass as giggles passed my lip. I'm okay, everything is okay. I'm home now, I'm safe. No one will ever take paradise from me. I could feel large hands grip my upper arm, pulling me harshly from my paradise. No! Stop it, this is mine!
My body was jerked off my bed, ripped cruelly from my safety. No longer was I laying comfortably in the grass, instead being held up by force. Two large men were standing in my room gripping me tightly.
"Wh-What's going on..?" Was all I could stutter out, getting nothing more than a 'You'll find out later.' They led me downstairs, walking out the door I began to panic. Coming out from the daze of my paradise. Seeing my parents on the lawn talking to a man who looked half like a doctor half like a scientist. Ha! My parents, the man who abandoned me. The woman who gave me to that thing. The thoughts, the memories all causing my body to shake.
"Daddy.." The cry was weak, pathetic even. Though it still captured his attention he gave me a soft reassuring smile before starting over to me. The two men seeming to wait for something. My mother and the man started towards me about the time my father had reached me. I felt the men release my arms, skittering quickly into my father's open waiting arms. He held me tightly, protecting me as I nuzzled my face close to him. Clinging to him with eyes closed tightly, I could feel the bruises beginning to form where the men had so roughly grabbed a hold of me.
"Aria..?" The voice was unknown to me, professional but caring. It must have been the man my parents had been talking to. "Aria, we're going to take you to safe place. Where we can help you get better. It's not that far, you'll meet new people. Maybe make some friends." At this I opened my eyes and looked up at him.
"W-where..? Where are you taking me, will I be able to see my Dad?"
"Greenwell Mental Institute." He said it as if it was nothing, they want to take me to a looney bin? They think I'm crazy? Before I could stop myself my inner thought became outwards.
"No, No I won't go with you. I'm not crazy, I just day dream. Why do you want to take me away. I don't need to go." I felt my father's arms loosen, my protection leaving again. I felt the men grab me, "No! No! I'm not crazy!" They began hauling me towards the vehicle. Violently I kicked and screamed for them to let me go. Though their grips never failed, no matter how hard I squirmed or kicked. The Doctor following behind shaking his head.
"Aria, you're going to need to calm down. We don't want you disturbing the other patients when we arrive." They roughly tossed me in the back of a van, I could hear their muffled voices outside. It was dark in here, no windows. No seating, just the hard metal of the van. I felt it shift, one side then the other. Followed by two slams, must have been people getting in. I heard the vehicle rev to life, this is it. They're taking me, the thought settling in taking the last of my strength. I found myself curling up on the floor, tears beginning to stream their way down my face.
"I can't.." I muttered to myself. "I just, I can't..." I let go. The hard floor becoming a soft welcoming bed, the metal walls becoming dark cottage walls. I was home, I was home and I was safe. Nothing could hurt me now...
