chapter 6

When Kinga wakes up she notices she is no longer lying on the bed. She was hanging on some rope a few centimeters from the ground. Or rather over walking machine. Her hand was tied to the machine handles.
Kinga tried to remember what had happened. And once she remembered how her plan did not succeed, she began to cry. She never felt so broken. She knew it was the only way to escape, and now she did not know what a man from would do.
Suddenly Kinga was lowered on the machine. Holding the handles she was trying to stand, but it was very hard for her.
She heard a man's voice suddenly.
- Do you think you were the first to try to escape? -
Kinga did not see the man. Only after a moment did she realize that the voice was coming from the speakers.
- Liquid that you eat nearly everyday is spiced with let's call it a "drug", the side effects of long-term use is the degradation of muscles and weakness - Man continued. -But if you want so badly to go for a walk, I can give you an occasion to that. In a moment the machine will move and you will have to move with it. If you stop for a moment you will be electrocute. Have a nice walk my dear - Said a man.
And then Silance. Compleat silance.
Kinga thought. She was thinking of some other plan. She could not give up.
Without warning, she felt the machine moving. Very slowly began to move and when Kinga did not move She felt a shock in her hand. Terrified began to go. Very slowly. After a few steps she felt that she lacked the strength. She was breathing heavly, she already started to sweat. Her heart tried to keep up. And not half a minute have past. Although Kinga could not surrender. She had to think something. And fast. She was glad that the belt was moving really slowly. She counldn't go any faster. With every step she felt her her fat like a waves on sea. Her thighs rub themselves against each other. Her belly claps with every move. She walked. And walked. Increasingly exhausted. Every step was a pain for her. Pain, fatigue.
The worst came later.
After 30 minutes. Kinga was utterly exhausted. She felt that she was going to spit out her lungs. Every single muscle in her body screamed in pain. She was so sweaty that a few times she almost slipped on the wet belt. But the worst came. The worst feeling of all. Hunger. Sucking in her stomach was so awful. She felt as if through her stomach digested himself. She never felt before such pain. The tears flowed down her face. She could not come up with an idea. Her situation was hopeless. Kinga looked at her wet body. She was pathetic. She was not strong. The roar in her belly and her wheezing echoed in her head.
Eventually, something broke in her. The situation was without a way out. The exhaustion, the pain and the hunger made it impossible to think. The only thing she wanted to end This suffering. And she have only one possibility.
"No more I beg you" Kinga yelled.
The machine Stoped and with it Kinga to. But now as she stood up the electricity did not shock her. Alle her strenght disappear, Her legs collapse under her weight. She fell on the ground and lost consciousness...
...
Kinga woke up again on the bed. This time sitting. And again She was bound. She felt every muscle in her body hurts. Such muscle soreness She never felt in her life. But the attempt felt empty. She was no longer Angry or sad. She was empty. She gave up. There was no hope for her. All she could do was give up and count on a quick end. Her memories flashed over her head. With her friends, with her family. She felt like she saw her whole life from the begining. It is said that before death people see their whole life as a movie. Could it mean that she died inside?
The man entered the room. She did not react.
- I'm glad you gave up,- the man said cheerfully. - I washed you when you are unconscious. So your life will look like. You will eat what I give you. This will be your whole life now. Rejoice with it and enjoy it, so it will be easier for you.
The man pulled the tube out of the ceiling and was ready to place it in Kinga's mask.
- Any last words? - the man asked.
Kinga stared blankly at him and said, "Feed me to death. -
"With pleasure ," he said with a smile, and then he connected himself to the Kinga Mask and left.
Liquid again started summer. Kinga knew what she had to do now. Eat and gain as soon as possible to get out of this hell.
