Just some music to write to.
(y/n) POV:
(Oof)
I dashed through the halls, blood pumping through my veins. I rushed into my room and slammed the door shut. I ran over to my desk and turned the radio up as loud as it would go, nobody would hear me now!
I threw the books off my bookshelf and stacked them like a staircase. Once I had finished the tower, I looked up. This was a bad idea. This was a VERY bad idea.
(AN: HOLY CRAP I ALMOST FELL OUT OF MY LOFT!!! IM GOING TO HAVE A HEART ATTACK!!! Oh god I have a huge bruise across my tum tum now ;n;)
I ascended the spiraling staircase slowly, it wobbles and I almost fell. After what seemed like an eternity, I reached the top, and climbed into the vent. A little tight, I had to squeeze my wings against my back to fit, but nothing too much.
It was pitch black- I couldn't tell were I was but I could hear people walking below me. It must be my dinner!!
I heard a knock on my door-
"Ms (Y/n), I have your dinner. Apologies for last night. We had a fire in the kitchen. Tonigh we have spaghetti!"
I could hear the radio in my room, the loud music stopped and a quiet sleep commercial started playing, I couldn't hear it from inside the vent.
"Curse thou, commercial break!" I whispered.
I froze, scared he'd hear me.
The man sighed. I could hear him slip the tray of food in the slot and walk away.
I let out a sigh. But my relief was soon interrupted when I had breathed in, the vent had dirt particles built up, and some went into my nose! I tried to hold it in, but no. I started having a coughing fit.
The man stopped walking.
He yelled
"Hey something's in the vents!" And rushed off. I could hear people bustling underneath me. "Get the girl out of her room and move her somewhere safe." One said.
I hadn't put anything in the door to block them! I heard my door get kicked down-
"She's not here!"
"Sound an alarm!!"
"Find that girl!" They shouted.
I decided. Duck it, who cares if they hear me! I quickened my pace, sloppily crawling forward.
"I hear it!" A woman shouted.
BANG!
BANG BANG!
Some a hole started shooting through the vent!!!
"Oh my god... oh my god..." I whimpered and continued on.
A loud alarm pierced the air and red light shone through the bullet holes.
"Holy heck this can't be happening!!"
I saw a light far away, it was red, but it was light!
I couldn't hear any noise around me anymore. I guess I'm in between the walls?
I crawled even faster, the light getting bigger and bigger. The sirens behind me got quieter the farther I went.
I was almost there.
I'm almost to freedom!
My wings twitched, aching to stretch.
I peeped through the vent, the siren stopped, the lights were back to white. I was confused...
I kicked the vent open and crawled out.
"(Y/n), what do you think you're doing?" I looked up. My father stood right there- right in front of me! Surrounded by monsters and men. They knew I'd be here. Gosh I should have planned this.
I lowered my head.
NME lowered his hand to the grown and I climbed onto it.
"(Y/n). I made you to be just like me! I wanted you to assist me with controlling the filth commoners, that's why I made you look like them. But I will not accept this behavior!" He brought me up to his face.
"I don't like it here though!" I whined.
"No whining! You like it here! You're safe! Everyone else is safe from yo-" he stopped.
"What do you mean??" I asked.
"Look. I'm going to add more rules because of your actions." He put my back on the ground.
"Apparently this isolation isn't good enough. I block you off from everything I could, but I allowed you to talk to the other children at that filthy school! And this is how you act? I'll have a bigger room made for you, you will stay in it. Permanently." He ordered.
"But... but that's not fair!" I couldn't believe it!
He started to walk off.
"Take her to her new room."
I didn't want to stay here! The monsters started to circle me. A woman came out from between them and took my arm.
"Follow me, ms (Y/n)." He tugged.
"No!" I screamed and pulled away.
I slipped in between two monsters and ran like I had never run before.
I ran and ran, the monsters chasing me.
I stretched my wings, air creeped in between the feathers. Smiling, I jumped up and flew up a couple of feet. I glided through the air, my wings straining with effort. I hadn't flown in a long time. No more rules! I was going to leave Night Mare Enterprises! I was going to find somewhere else to live! The only place I knew existed other then NME was that pop star I heard on the radio... but dangerous rebels lived on it!
I flew higher and higher, looking for a way out. I loved how big the hallways were, they were built taller then the tallest sky scrapers- in order to accommodate for my fathers size of course! This was the first time I had flown up here! So much space!
A wave of heat passed me, I turned around. A giant monster was shooting fricken fire at me!!
I screamed and dodged a blade flying towards me. I thought monsters weren't supposed to hurt me!!! A vine shot forward and grabbed my leg, stopping me in place. It threw me down. I fell and fell, hundreds of feet.
I hit the ground hard with a crack! I grunted, my head and leg hurt, really bad. I started screaming and crying. I've never been hurt this bad before. My nose was bleeding and blood poured all on the ground. I slowly sat up, the monsters were quickly closing in- the back of my head stung and my vision was blurring.
I had to get out! They'll kill me! What's going on?? Monsters have a specific order to stay the He toothpicks away!!
I saw a small room, too small for the monsters to fit in. I stumbled to my knees, and crawled into the room. Once I was inside, I fell to the ground, panting. Tears streamed down my cheeks. I looked at my leg (rad 1111 words rn) it was broken, for sure, blood gushed everywhere, I could see bones. I almost puked. This was disgusting. Something thumped behind me.
A huge purple arm reached out and grabbed me by the wings!!! I tried to resist, holding on the the door frame.
POP!
SNAP!
I screamed. White feathers fluttered to the ground. My wing had come out of the socket, and the monsters clumsy hands snapped the fragile bone.
My wings were twisted backwards, the adrenaline covered most of my pain, but I still felt it.
My vision worsened. I coughed, blood dripping on the floor. I looked up, what my luck!!! A little ship sat in a tube. An escape pod!
The purple hand drew back, it's class covered in my own blood. It howled, one said
"You've killed her! NMEs going to rip you up!" It laughed.
"You fools!" An older one hollered "He'll have us all hanged!" (Just in case some of y'all don't know- and this is the google def.- The standard rule for the past tense of hang is this: in almost all situations, you should use hung. Use hanged when referring to a person being suspended by a rope around the neck until dead.)
I rushed forward and climbed into the pod. A hatch opened under the ship.
"Insert Destination?" A female voice said.
I said the only place I knew other then NME.
"Pop Star..." I passed out.
