2010, April ??

Location: Dara detention facility and state prison

Approx time: unknown. 

 

I woke up... I was being dragged again... Just like 7 years ago. I was being dragged by 2 guards... Just like 7 years ago. I'm supposed to die again... Just.. Like.. SEVEN.. Years.. Ago. 

My memories of what happened so long ago came back to haunt me. The thoughts of death, and my father abandoning me twirled around in my mind. Dancing and mocking me. I was becoming nervous, and started to worry. Anxiety started to set in my stomach and lower back. The feeling... It was like a demon was breathing on me, and it gave me chills and put a knot in the area. I began to panic. Everything was unreal. This couldn't be happening. There was NO way this was happening. I was breathing hard, and I whined. Noooo I told myself. I dont want to go through this again. Why?!! Why does my life have to be like this!!!

The guards dragged me through multiple hallways. We passed the cafeteria. I looked over and saw Nicholas standing there. He saw me and the look of horror covered his face. 'Alex?' he asked me. 'Nick!!' I screamed. I shook but one of the guards hit me and demanded I stopped. 'Nick!!!!' I screamed again. I kept trying to shake free but the guards just hit me again. I cried. 'oh my God, what do you want with me?!! What did I DO!!!! TELL MEEE!!!!!' one of the guards stopped and kicked me really hard in the stomach. Then he punched me in my ribs. a sharp pain shocked my side. A heard a pop and a crunch. The pain swelled out like a sore thumb. 'There.. Fagot. You did the same thing to me. Now you get to have a broken set of ribs to!!' he grasped his side and cried out. He looked at me then grunted, and punched me inthe jaw again. 'Common!!' he said. And he picked me up and continued dragging me with the other guard. My sides hurt. The pain slowly spread across my side and towards my chest and back. 

The guards stopped at a set of doors and opened them. They threw me in the room. There was a table with straps on it. I saw the pumping machine that contained the poison. The stuff they use nowadays to legally kill inmates, or in civil terms, PUT TO DEATH. One of the guards punche me and then grew me onto the table. I struggled to get off but I was just hit again, and again, and again... The guards finally got me strapped into the table. One of them pushed a button on the wall and the pumping machine slowly started to fill itself up with chemicals. There were 3 vials in the machine that I could see. Each one slowly filing itself with my final moments and then inevitably... My last. I looked up towards the ceiling. The horizontal table made me feel uncomfortable about the type of execution they were going to perform on me. It gave me a strange and dark feeling. I cried again. I heard one of the guards say the machine had finished supplying itself with the solutions. I began breathing harder.. And harder. I was whining like a little kid. Tears were pouring from my face. 'Nooo!!' I shouted 'NNOOOO!!!!' I screamed and screamed continuously. I struggled furiously but my efforts were in vein. I heard one of the guards say something. I looked over. The guard was looking at me. It was the one who's ribs I broke. 'Fuck you kid! I'll see you in hell!!!' his voice was sinister and cruel. The guard pressed a button and I saw one of the vials start to drain itself. Slowly, the solution within it disappeared. I turned towards the ceiling again. I screamed as hard as I could. I tried so hard to fight my way out of the straps. One of the guards said to me, 'the first solution renders you unconscious. The second paralyses the muscles. Then the last stops your heart and respiratory system.' he laughed. His voice became weird. I heard it get deep then back to normal. I became light headed and my eyes grew heavy. They were almost shut, but then I used all my strength to keep them open. They grew heavy again though, and started to close. My breathing slowed down and became shallow. I didn't have the strength to fight it. The chemical was too strong. I could just barely see in front of me now. I was pearing through a slit in my eyes. A small slit that divided my eyelids. Everything was blury. I saw an orange glow in front of me. A strange figure walked up to me. It touched my chest. Instantly, my eyes became fully shut.

 

 

 

I was dreaming now. My father was in front of me. We were standing in my old house. He was smiling. 'Hey... Alex..' my eyes were watery and my chest was warm with sadness and anger. 'Dad!' I cried out. 'why did you make me leave like that! Why did you have me move away?! Those men hurt me dad, they hurt me!' His smile faded. 'A-Alex..' 'What?! What could you possibly say that would make me feel better about what you did?! I can never forgive you!!' my chest felt heavy and warm. 'I can never forgive you!!' I said. 'what you did RUINED me!! And now, I have to die because of you!! Why couldn't you have just kept me dad?!!' my father was silent. 'Huh?!! Well??!!!' still no answer. I screamed, and tears drenched my shirt. 'Alex...' he said looking down. 'it's.... It's hard to explain to you, b-but I...' 'No dad! No 'if ands or buts' about it!! Just tell me!!' my voice was horse and sad. I felt the presence of someone weeping. It was a beautiful person, but... I couldn't see them. I just felt it. They were beautiful though, and they wept. I knew who they were weeping for... It was me. They knew and understood my pain. They felt my sorrow I had locked up for seven long, hard and dreadful years. Seven years I would need to get back, and seven years I never wanted. My dad looked at me. He was crying to. 'A-Alex... I'm sorry... I'm so sorry..' He choked from crying. 'It all started a long time ago. When modern technologies and advances were not possible...'
