A Rush Of Euphoria

Chapter one: The beginning

It was dark and raining heavily, I was running never knew where I was heading to but my heart was set on one particular place, I had started a war that I couldn't finish now I'm a coward running away Leaving my people behind.

All in the name of vengeance

My dark hair hung heavily with filth, sores ripened over my skin, red belts on larval white. Layers of my clothing's clung to me as I squatted and smell spread more harshly than that of an animal, After mastering the shock of the darkness I could see an outline of the gate as I continued.

The gate of life.

I was almost there close to the gate of life, I could make it I knew it just few steps more and I would be there no one could stop me I had the heart of the moon goddess now we would be free. All I have to do was to implant it into the mongrel rock and stab the amazon dagger through it.

Fumbling with the locks of the gate now trying to get the gate open, wallah it was opened, just as I was about to step out into the gate I was struck hard by a great lightening.

Darkness

****

Cold water splashed on my face

"Wake up !" followed by another bucket of Ice blocked water on me.

The hairs on my skin felt terribly numb, I was weak and dizzy, I couldn't even make out an object nor could my sight form a clearer picture  of anything I saw before me, my sights weren't stable either everything was in double angles.

"She's still unconscious " someone spoke

"Well she better get conscious before lord Allen gets here" a rude curt voice spoke

"Yes sir" replied the man who spoke earlier, I guess he must be a guard

A guard! Where am I? I remembered leaving the gate, Oh no! I never did I never made it, the heart I lost it. precious queen of the amazon please save me,  i am doomed, captured, no going back for me, I chose this part now I must suffer.

Hours later...

"Wake her up now! "

I could hear this people but I can't see them, they all think I am unconscious but that's because I want them to think so. Playing dead will be best for me than waking up to a dreadful reality.

"Have tried to sire, but she isn't responding " that voice belong to the same boy  that was here yesterday and I am sure the sire must be the same
Man they were talking about yesterday.

Lord Allen

"Rubbish Steven, rubbish that's why you would never get promoted or find favor in the eyes of the moon goddess,  you are too soft "

"Well Sire Allen, you are too strong and cold hearted that's why you are highly favored " retorted Steven

"We are not going there Steven,  we have a task at hand and that's to make sure this traitor wakes up!"

With that Sir Allen left the cell, very angry that I could feel the heat of his anger radiating on my skin.

I don't know how long I have been here but what I know is that I have no much time, and I'm meant to be conscious,  I have to know all that would seek for me in this place considering what I have done,  Steven is a guard and soft hearted, at least that's what I have figured, while sir Allen is an impatient man and wants me to be conscious so my fate can be decided by the moon goddess,  oh yeah the moon goddess I took her heart away ran for victory and from fear. But now her heart has been restored and I'm doomed for eternity .

"You have to wake up now, I have been too good to you for the past few days,  so you could restore some energy in you but that's enough my dear,  you don't have much time till the moon goddess comes and end you with a blink of an eye "

He knows "How long have I been here" I asked now opening my eyes , my voice too hoarse that I couldn't recognize it myself, while it got adjusted to the cell I was in, so dark and dirty and a little hint of light to give the room an illumination.

He looked too young to own the voice have been hearing for a few days now, like he was in his middle teen.

"Three days, you don't have much time they would come and get you soon "

"She's alive right, I made sure she never made it"

"You are stupid thinking you could outrun her in the first place,  and yes she made it which makes you a dead meat, my dear"

I am not my dear, I am a princess. Princess of the Amazon's

I gulped real hard that I couldn't stop the sound from making out.

Steven laughed at me real hard
"Now your faith would be decided, I must go report to my masters that you are awake now, make sure you eat " he said gesturing to the stool with a tray of food on it ,along with water
I couldn't hide the disgusted scowl on my face seeing how messy the food looked

"Eat while you have the chance my dear, you are lucky I got assigned to you, other guards would make sure you starve to death and would even try mulling you before you get to the goddess " he said while he was about existing from the cell

Chills were sent directly into my spine, I was going to die anyway, what's the need for food even if my stomach was hurting I rather starve to death and await my faith from here.

"How old are you Steven" I asked, don't know why I did but I couldn't stop my thought from voicing out.

He stopped and looked at me with a bemused expression "You are on your death table and what you are interested in its my age" he laughed

"Wonderful" he said while existing from the cell I am twenty seven years" he turned with a big smile on his face "Too young right to look that way? Well welcome to our world"
