The Dungeon-Personal Narrative

Superior Essays
Statement of intent: This creative writing piece is about a guy who is wrongly convicted to stealing precious jewelry, and is thrown in this isolated dungeon, and the only way he can escape is by searching for the right key among thousands of other keys that are stashed in this dungeon, which would unlock the door and he would be free.
"Oi" someone shouted furiously, I turned around only to find two men charging at me with huge ak47 machine guns. I began to panic intensively, my whole body went into some sort of shock as those men charging at me came closer and closer. I began to in the space of two seconds reflect on my life as I thought this was the end of me and, that, this was my final resting place. However as the men got into a range

Still with a lot of panic and anger, I took a greater look at this room or dungeon or whatever it was that I was trapped in and the dismal light from a chandelier that hung over my head was the only source of light that lit up that room. The shadow that was casted from the chandelier danced on the brick walls around me, this caught my attention and with the shadow catching my attention, in the distance I saw what I perceived to be a stash of something shiny. My curiosity urged me to find out what that shiny stash was, with that I managed to calm myself down a fraction, and curiously made my away over to this stash of shiny …show more content…
"This is ridiculous", I yelled to myself in a manic voice as I tossed another key at the brick wall in frustration. That slight crashing sound when the metal key hit the brick wall made me realize that my world is crashing down due to the fact, I was trapped in here, locked up, and couldn't escape. I had responsibilities ,important responsibilities to carry out, I also had values that I personally held, these values meant a lot to me, but I was stuck in here and I didn't know how I was going to get out of here. Dreaming about these responsibilities made me so upset, I couldn't describe it, I cant bear that I might be trapped in here and never able to see my kids ever again. Whenever, I thought about these responsibilities I would curl up in a ball and let out a slow cry, I would then begin to just ball my eyes out. Whenever I balled my eyes out in frustration, the tears flooded the concrete floor around me. For a matter of fact I'm surprised I'm not yet swimming in the tears around me or for the matter drowned in these tears, because of the amount of breakdowns I had while being locked up in

    My bunny, Copper, has always been a good distraction from my troubles. He makes me laugh when I feel my lowest; he burrows with me in the blankets when I need a friend; he is a fabulous listener, and he makes even the most overcast days brighter.

    Buffy's vision blurred, damp hair covered part of her face, sticking with wet. She blinked her vision clearer for a minute, not quite ready to pull herself out of the puddle, not quite sure if she could. Face sideways in the water, cold and probably dying, flashes of how ran through her mind almost in slow motion, but almost in hyperspeed. The last weeks of sparring and battle-prep and the impending death march running like blood through her ears. Coming down here, determined, to end it.…

My idea so far was *run up the stairs and try to "distract"the being, then pull the door shut and then lock it* it sounded cliche in my head, but i figured I didn't have any other choice but to die otherwise. So I set my plan into action. I quietly stepped up the unstable wooden planks of the slanted hallway towards the open door.…

    The stage of a hero's journey I associate with to the most is stage five. I associate with this because I meet new people every day and some turn out to be a whole lot friendlier than others. As a result of this, I have made numerous allies and enemies throughout the years. One example is that in second grade I was transferred to another class along with two other girls. Those two girls ended up being my best friends for six years.…

    “Alright now Skin, I need you to be my leadoff here and get a rally going!” I do not respond, because I obviously know how important this one at bat is for the team and for myself. One thing coach loves doing, making sure I know how much I am accountable for. There is no comment to explain to me of how dependent I am on these upcoming moments for the team, so don’t make it any worse. To start off and to have the power to set the tone of the whole inning.…

    BELIEVE IT OR NOT, we're all accustomed to a certain standard, or stereotype that needs to be played. Whether it's being captain of the cheerleading team or the smartest kid in your class, it's one way or another that's there's going to be someone who's supposed to follow by these stereotypes or standards just for the sole fact that that's them. Unfortunately for me, it couldn't get any worse, since being an African American female who unfortunately does not fit your typical, "angry black woman." Yes, that "angry black woman", bitter, closed-off, unarticulated, with serious father issues.…

    Robbing the temple of Mother Larina, it was an audacious idea; the grounds were so well guarded that even the best thieves in the city wouldn't dare to try. And that is how Aaron knew he could pull it off. Of course he wouldn't just try to jump the wall in the night, and slip in a window, that's the kind of thing that would get him caught. No, Aaron had a plan, and it was a plan that would turn what many considered one of his weaknesses into an asset; something he's often been teased about over the years; his girlish looks, and figure.…

    The sickness that I live with is one that some would find excessively appalling, making it impossible to talk about; so I kept it to a whisper. This sickness I thought was to embarrassing to talk about, making it impossible to seek help, left me feeling alone in the dark. This sickness ruined friendships, without me realizing it. This sickness that made getting out of bed a struggle for me. This sickness made it impossible for me to see a positive future, until the day I stopped calling myself “crazy” and began to grow from what we all call, depression.…

    I wake up like every day, sore, in pain and hungry. My life has been garbage, orphaned at birth, forced to run from all the havoc I bring. I would get a job, but too young to even think about that, and yet old enough to be able to survive. From village to village, seeking a place to live, but no luck. I gather what little belongings I have, a book, a steel sword to defend from the bandits and a pouch of miscellaneous materials.…
