lifeless {Hal Day 1}

[d9 kristof parks {ems}]

His mind is racing, thoughts speeding a million miles an hour trying to take everything in. It's cold, teeth chattering, snot dripping from his nose, but Hal knows it's just another winter. His butt hurts, aches, and even moving feels difficult. Everything seems to settle for the worst. It's impossible, hard to focus on anything, yet he tries to roam through the arena focusing on where to go from here. Finding a place to hide, looking for cover, shelter, something, anything, but nothing seems okay. Nothing is ever okay, but why? Why is this happening?

The tips of his ears burn red, and everything is nothing as it seems, but why? Why is all of this here? It's exhausting, struggling, his heart tries clawing through the prison holding it in place. His mind, it screams, it's hard to focus on anything other than himself in this moment. Finding others, staying alive, doing everything he possible can in order to succeed.

Nothing makes sense. Nothing will ever make sense.

I want to make it home. I want to search for something, for anything. I want to see my family.

But is it possible? Can anything ever make it out of this alive?

Can I make it out of this alive?

His toes are cold, his legs shiver, but right now, the only thing on his mind is survival. Learning to live, learning to adapt. It's all important, and right now, Hal knows survival isn't going to be easy.
