I woke with a start. My head was throbbing. I was in a cell. The door slightly ajar. I got to my feet. I felt dizzy. Sweat poured down my face. I head for the door. Next to it are 3 whepons. A dagger. A sword and a bow with 13 arrows. I pick up the bow. I'd never used one before so i dabbled with it for a while. The technique perfected i left the room.
The corridoor was long and narrow. I could go either way. I looked left. A small light gleemed in the distance. I walked towards it. As i approched i could start to make out a map on the wall. The map showed many corridors all in a maze like structure with a big open square in the middle. I decided to head for that center. A straight path north.
The area was lined with corpses. Two men stood in the middle. Fighting. An arror flew from one side to the middle and hit one of the men. He collapsed in a pool of his own blood. I took aim at the other man as he ran towards where the arrow came from. I loosened my grip. The arrow flew through the air hitting the man tn the temple. He slumped down to the ground. I stood in shock. Ihad just killed a man for no reason. I dont even know why im here. I then felt it. The sharp point of the blade as it struck my back. I turned to see the man i had just killed smirking. I pulled the point out. A small dagger. I slumped to the floor. The world started to darken. Everything was silent.

I woke with a start. My head was throbbing. I was in a cell. The door slightly ajar. I got to my feet. I felt dizzy. Sweat poured down my face. I head for the door. Next to it are 3 whepons. A dagger. A sword and a bow with 13 arrows. I pick up the bow. I felt a sense of da'ja'vu as i held the bow. Even though i hadnt used it before i knew how to use it. I left the room.
The corridoor was long and narrow. I could go either way. I looked left. A small light gleemed in the distance. I felt i had done this before so i looked right. Darknes. I ventured in. From a corridoor to my left a bloodied body was launched. A man stepped forward,sword in hand. Thinking quick i hit him with the end of my bow. I hit with enough strength to peirce his skull. He fell as lifeles as the floor. I moved on through the dim light.
I found my self in a familiar hallway. A body lay on the ground. A hole in her back. I flipped her over to see if she was ok. It was me. I stared into my lifeless eyes. I remembered what had happned. A small white object hit me square between the eyes. Blood trickled down my face. The world darkned.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I woke up. I could remember what happned. I grabbed the sword and left. Down the corridoor. One. Two. Three people dead because of me. The blood stuck to the sword as glue sticks to paper. No one was left alive when i got to the square i thought. 13 arrows 13 people. I had killed 13 people. An arrow came from the north and another from the south. I ducked. The arrows missed but one person managed to fire a third. As i stood back up it hit me in the back of the head. I fell forward. The world fell silent.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I woke up. I couldnt take it any more. I grabbed the dagger and stabbed myself in the heart. I woke again. I barricaded my self in the cell. No one in no one out.
3 days passed. I was dehydrated. I clung to the floor and took my last breath.
I woke again. I went out with no wepon and died to wake again. The prosses drove me mad. I was stuck in the loop forever.
