He sure was tired! You are really good at playing tag!

Some of the people are unhappy. You don't mind them, they bet you were going to take a nap.

Too bad you don't like this game. It looks like someone is bringing you food!

What kind of food?

Yay, butterflies!

You guess food will have to wait.

We appear to be in the somewhat regressed mind of a catguy pitfighter.

With how strong he seems to be, I'd guess the pit master took his arm and eye while he was sleeping to try and even the odds.

Now they're starving him. It looks like he's still way stronger than anyone else.

Plus, who is "she"?

With your dream fading away, your closest thing to her goes away. You'll find her, you tell yourself...

You are in the back of an enclosed pick-up truck. You are in a makeshift straitjacket keeping your game playing right hand out of the way. They must want to save it for a big game.

You feel like you were force fed in your sleep. There's whatever slop quaking beside you in your mouth and on your face even now.

You can hear some of what is being said by the driver and their buddy or buddies. It seems that your beating the last man in tag, and the rest of them lately was ruining the odds, and costing them money.

A new client was interested in ______, and want to see him in their ___.

Can you break out of the straightjacket?

Stand up and look around. Are we going on a trip?

If you could break out of it, it wouldn't be a very good one, would it. You can't stand up too easy, but you sit up and start to stand up.

"You keep down, you won't like what you're attached to if you don't." You receive a warning, and the passenger waves a remote.

We are going to a trip to another ___, from what you heard before, and the cable is attached to your collar and neck.

Look at that weird turtle.

Your turtle friend doesn't seem to move much. It must not like the bumpy ride.

You turn around slowly and look at what your leash is attached to. It's some sort of metal contraption. It seems to be humming and buzzing. It sounds ominous.

Tell the turtle that it'll all be alright. We'll make sure to protect him.

You think your hiding place is good, but you hide yourself behind a wheel well and commence wagging furiously.

Luckily you are not a cat so you don't feel bad. You are now alone with an empty plate.

So... can you disconnect yourself from that thing? Bite it or something?


And Dogboy, I am disappoint.

Are there any windows? Outside is nice to watch.

You DON'T bite the cable. It slips out of your mouth and you slide your knees over to look at the pointy thing.

You're not sure what it is. You don't know machines. It's either a puncture in it, or it might be some sort of fitting device. You're not sure what for.

YOU'RE FREE! and there's red lights.
Red means run

>>76676
Rub your jacket against it and try to cut the strap holding your arm back.

The red lights mean we're playing hide and seek, and it's your turn to hide.

Yeah, go hide outside the truck. They'll never find you there.

You track down your one and only possession, the picture.

You sniff the air. You have a general idea where you were. Fortunately for you, the ___ was not more than a few hours walk from where you are now.

Your name is not Issyou.

When you were a boy, you were sold into slavery. At a young age, your natural prowess in a scuffle was realized. This was due to your feral nature.

When you were a bit older, your owner decided to make a good amount of money off of you by selling you on an auction.

_____ purchased you. That is how you met your butterfly.

When did they take away your arm and eye?

Your butterfly gave you a sandwich upon taking you home. She spent months teaching you not to act like a slave, but only so much could be done.

You fell in love with her. Her birthday was coming up, and you wanted to buy her a present.

You decided to try making money for her present the only way you knew how. You entered a Death Tournament with a very high payout.

There were not many people who joined it. You had expected a much larger turnout. Not as many people are willing to put their lives on the line for a price as you figured was natural.

Magic couldn't stop you. Armor and technology was a game.

In the final round, your opponent was a talented sword master. She managed to cleave off your left arm, but during the moment of the blow, you crushed her skull with your right hand.

You had won. You had more than enough for _____'s birthday present now!

He's probably got little time before they find him.

With your prizes and prize money from the tournament you returned to _____ with a present.

She struck you to the ground and asked why you would waste money and damage her goods to buy her something. She didn't want it.

"I love you," you said from the floor, and she kicked you in the chest for it. You couldn't help but cry.

"That is exactly why I've sold you back to the ___. It's obviously what you want to do. You should die doing it." The owner of the ___ carts you away, broken.

The present wasn't even opened.

...You turn her around and gouge out her eye with your hand, and waste no time tearing her arm off.

...As you are about to drop her into the pit, she says one last thing to you.

"Check the counter," She laughs a little, some remaining spite and joy in her despite it all. You snap your hand and tear off her head and hurl it down after the tumbling corpse. You step back into the house.

Inside of the house, in the kitchen you find a stack of papers. One of which is a medical bill of a somewhat recent abortion.

The blood smearing from your hands does not help your heart. It rises into your throat and sobs and whimpers escape.

You set the house on fire and trudge away. You can't seek revenge twice. It's already over. You do not feel you have won, but you are free.

Freedom has its costs.
