If only I were able to flee. To be rid of this life and be capable of starting completely over. To not be confined to the life that I have destined for me, the one that at one time I had chosen but now I feel captive by. Utterly closed in, locked into a place in which I am no longer happy. If only I could just go, and be someone completely new.
The smell was rancid as it hit her nose. Throat convulsing, the muscles contracting up into a dry heave as she turned away from the cellar doorway.

The gravel was smashed into the ground underneath the coach's wheels as we came to an abrupt stop. The door swung open with a creak, I blindly reached my hand out into the darkness.

Only to come to find that even the hardest, most ruthless human being has weaknesses. The realization comes as a slap in the face, you are not invisible. In fact, you are in the spotlight of your own story.
