Chapter 6
My first steps to freedom are beyond underwhelming. Standing in the center of the corridor outside the room where I’ve been held prisoner, the compression of my crushed enthusiasm slows my steps to a halt.
Looking left and then right, there’s more of the same white walls and sparkly black floor. It’s nothing more than a curving tunnel. Randomly, I choose to go right. Looking back, I find my males meandering behind me, seemingly content to stroll along in my wake.
The farther my steps take me only reveals more tunnel with an infinite curve and no end in sight. If I had a handful of breadcrumbs to mark my route, I bet if I walked far enough, I’d simply circle back to where I began—back to the door to my prison.
Maybe that’s the idea. Perhaps, my males are only letting me roam in an endless circle. So, this freedom is an illusion! This is nothing more than a stationary hamster wheel—I could run all day long and never reach an end. I’m the pet being taken out for a walk—leash not required as there’s no place for me to go.
How fucking special!
Fury blooms in the center of my chest, expanding outward until every inch of me is red-hot pissed off. My feet propel me faster down the endless tunnel to nowhere. Just as I’m about to round on my three followers and tell them exactly what I think about this little outing, the scenery changes.
Dramatically.
My breath sticks in my throat, and stability is stolen from my knees as I wobble forward before falling to the floor. Reaching out a shaking hand, I press my palm against what I assume is glass. Smooth beneath my palm, it feels the same as if I was touching a window—except the window before me is enormous, a panorama curving seamlessly with the walls. The view is beyond compare. I don’t dare blink; there’s simply too much to take in.
I catch the reflections of the males as they file in behind me, but I disregard their presence over what I’m trying to comprehend as reality.
My eyes bounce around, trying to capture all the celestial bodies that flow past the ship—so many stars, large and small. One is so close, a deep blue, I can make out the churning surface.
My attention shifts up as the bottom curve of a massive planet the color of moss comes into view overhead. I shrink down as if it would hit me. Looking up at its swirling atmosphere, I wonder how much devastation is being wrought on the plant’s surface by the enormous storm cloud covering its bottom half.
A small moon orbiting the mossy planet is next to catch my eye. Little more than a silvery ball of gaseous clouds, it looks as lifeless as the moon I’ve admired on many a cloudless night from my bedroom window.
I could complain about my new window, but it appears I’ve traded up—not that I’ve decided to junk my plan to return home. No, that is still first and foremost my goal; however, for now, I think I’ll just enjoy the view.
