Ezio D'Angelo D13 [CB!FIN]

All of your nightmares have the hymns that ring in a loud tone. Always singing about how the world is burning around you with fire and rain while you hide under the ground like a blind mole. Unwavering faith in District Thirteen's own belief of the capitol that will be your inevitable future. Born underground, you've never seen the sky or nature or the water, but you've seen it behind monitors in a room filled with fake light. Mother used to tell you stories of the sky and the land that they originated from with people who suffered, but there's a beauty to it all that she sang to him. A young boy's romanticized dreams of one day seeing the above world over their home fills your head until it comes pouring over your tongue and they reject you once again.

Stronger. Faster. You push yourself to limits that seem unreachable to you because the sky waits like a memory of the dreams that you could see as your mother tells you stories of the stars glittering above. Dreams of becoming a pawn in this game of chess that thirteen and the capitol play, you push your body harder and harder, praying that you'll never break like your mother had. No death wish upon your shoulders as the calm air of the underground fills your lungs. The hymn of nightmares continues in a screechy tune that is hauntingly beautiful, until you see mother's tears and the sickness that inevitably takes her. Screams of what more doctors can do, but none of them were gods that could heal the inevitable death.

You push and push until your mind is in tune of your body, playing a tune of struggle and survival as the ceiling comes closer and closer down in a metaphorical crushing weight that he carries. Underground is all you've known, but you fight to find a way to escape this darkness and create a world where the sky can glitter with stars and sing with a hymn of freedom like your mother had wanted.
