"What?" He heard himself mutter, followed by an incomprehensible cacophony of noises he wasn't sure came from him.
Enthralled in what felt like a mental whirlwind, and overwhelmed by confusing emotions and the dull ache in the back of his head, the boy shuffled forward slowly. Gradually regaining consciousness, he became aware of the support he was receiving from foreign individuals.
His bewilderment only grew with the progression of his journey. Attempting to shake what felt like a dark mist from his senses, he felt a quickly growing pressure in his back. Seconds later he realized he had been pushed. This revalation came to him when his body collided with leather.
A seat. A car seat, he apprehended. Still trying to shake the cloud from his vision and comprehend his surroundings, he stretched a tentative arm into the empty space in front of him.

Dread choked him as he drowned in agony. Desperately, he tried to abolish the intrusive memories, but to no avail. Dismally, he accepted the reality of his situation and followed the barely illuminated scenery on the exterior of his mobile penitentiary, refusing to consider what might happen next.
