It's been forever since I posted here .-. Well, here's a emotional prompt I coughed up a few days ago.
I bent my head downwards, tears spilling from my eyes. My hand slowly reached up and grasped the microphone, pulling it down to my quivering lips.
"I'm sorry, Momma," I whispered, my grim and shaking voice echoing throughout the bleak room we were standing in. "This will be the last time we speak. They have chosen me to be the Keeper on the island. Lotus will be my new guardian, and she is the Director of Operations."
My mother swiftly crossed the room, tremors of horror crossing her face. That beautiful face, now scared and hopeless. Her daughter was going to be shipped off to an island with a total stranger to take care of addled fugitives for the rest of her once wonderful life She tried to hug me goodbye, but two bulky men cloaked in white hooked her by the arms and ushered her out the door.
"She's leaving now," They informed her coldly. Darkly. Harshly.
I felt my knees turn to stones and drop to the floor. To my utter surprise they let me weep silently. They let me slump onto the floor in a tangled mass of limbs and shrink into the frigid white tiles. The people who made me come here, the people who sent me to this God-forsaken place, let me write my life on a paper and put it in the shredder. The people who made me come here were monsters, mad dogs wanting to be fed. Fed with the tears of others. They were the people who stood in the corner and watched me weep with blank faces, as if they had seen it time and time before.
Lotus put a calloused hand on my back. She was calm, but her eyes wished they could weep like me. "Get up, Opal," She begged.
The people in the back watched with thinned lips. They did not care.
I closed my eyes and stood up. Momma said things only happened for a reason. The reason was unknown, but I did not care.
Lotus sighed. "I can't go there alone, dear." She nudged me so I would walk, but I did not budge. Her voice rose in desperation. "Opal, please!"
The people didn't move. Their eyes simply shifted to the side so they could see better.
I finally moved, walking towards the door with Lotus. We were shoved onto a ship and a woman threw a map at my face. "Read it, girl."
After three weeks of travel we had arrived. To Vattigmahn Island, the Island for psychos. The Island of Darkness.
