Dragon:
A Decade in Limbo
By
Madame Estrella
Dragon
House
A
young boy sat in the SL-27 Sim lab writing in a blue notebook.
He looked up as a balding man in a dark gray suit entered the room and
approached the boy. He picked up
the notebook and thumbed through the pages, looking over the boy’s work.
“Very
good.” The man said and then he
backhanded the boy across the face. The
boy recoiled and tenderly touched his face while glaring at the old man.
“I’m
taking you to the Dragon House.” The
man said. The boy nodded his head.
“I
feel safe there.” The boy
replied.
“And
you always will.” The man
replied.
The
boy rode in the back of the black town car with the man for hours.
He gazed out the windows as they passed through the serene landscape.
It had been very bright at first, but once the boy’s eyes had adjusted
to the light, he took in every feature.
They
arrived at the large white mansion. Around
the roof of the porch jutted ornate wooden dragons.
The boy fixated on them with his light blue eyes.
The man led him into the house where the boy was free to wander the home
and the yard, but always under supervision.
The
sweepers never talked to the boy, except to tell him what not to do or touch or
when to go inside. Only the man
talked to him, and only he really listened.
Except for when the little girl came to visit.
As
the boy aged, his wonderment diminished. He
grew cold inside and began to view the world from a dark, pessimistic
standpoint. He didn’t care about
what others thought, or believed. He
was right, and only what he believed truly mattered.
In
whispered confidence, he found meaning in his dismal existence, which became his
sole focus in life.
Then
one day, the boy ran away.
