Freed by the Moon

I guess I should start with my name and general description. My name is Jeremi Lee Voit. I'm 6'3" and about 280 lbs. with mid back length brown hair and steel blue eyes. Now on to where and what. Where I am I don't have a clue. All I know is I went to sleep in my bed one night and woke up in I would guess is a dungeon cell. What country I'm in I have no clue. The door to my cell is solid wood with a small view port about eye level and another at ground level where my food and water are placed.

I haven't talked to a single soul since I've been here. So I have no clue as to why I'm being held or for how long. A pile of hay serves as my bed and a hole in the floor is my bathroom. It's been my whole world for I guess five years now. All I do is wake up do some exercises and let my mine wonder.

Around two years ago I would say I started asking the moon to set me free. I mean what could it hurt to ask. I've always loved the night so I figured what the hell. I was slowly going crazy anyways. One thing I noticed about the moon was the shape of the shadow on the moons face. Instead of the usual man it was a unicorns I guess? Anyway one night I asked the moon to set me free like I had been. This time I was answered. " You shall be set free when I am set free." Ok, I thought to myself that was strange.

For the next week all was the same then one day I decided I had enough. I had to get out of there or I was going to finally lose my damn mind. That night I noticed that the shadow on the moon was gone. I made the decision to try and make my escape the next night. All the next day I tried to figure out how I could get out. Then a idea came to me. When the evening meal comes around they always open the view port first to see where I'm at. The way my cell is I must have a corner one. It's narrow at the door, but widens out the further you go. While I studied the cell closer I could tell that there is a blind spot right above the door. If I could hide up there I bet these guards are dumb enough to open that door to try and find me. I made my mind up then. I would make my attempt that night.

When I figured it was close to time I got into position. It wasn't long before the view port opened. I heard a muttered what the fuck because the guard didn't see me. As I had hoped the door opened and the guard stepped in. When he walked past me I dropped down behind him and caught him in a sleeper hold. I Set the poor sap down easy so I didn't hurt him. I mean come on, yeah they have kept me locked up with no explanation, I'm not a asshole. Maybe with me not really hurting anyone they might go easier on me. I frisked the guard taking the keys and his sword? Uh, ok.

Time to go I thought. I closed and locked the cell with the guard in it. As I made my way I noticed a distinct lack of activity. Was I the only one down here? When I came to a set of stairs I started up. I came up to a door and took my time opening it and looked around. The first thing I saw was a grand hall. Damn, where am I a palace? Not seeing anybody else I slipped out and turned to the right. I took my time moving along. Coming up to another intersection I looked bother ways wondering witch way to go. Well the guards that come from the left made my decision for me. All of us froze for a moment and in that moment I noticed something. The guards where horses. WHAT THE FUCK I thought. They are horses.

I tried to process the fact that they was horses. When my brain kicked back in I bolted to the right. "Halt" I heard one of them shout. Nope not gonna happen I thought. While I was running I stated looking for a way out. Damn this place is huge. I ran past what looked like a maid and two more guards. Great, this place is going to be all over me in a few minutes. I made another turn and spotted a huge set of doors. I hope that's the way out I thought running up to them. Throwing the doors open I was met with fresh air and a cool breeze. I was outside, but not free. Not yet.

I turned right and started to follow the outside wall. I needed to find some woods to get lost in. I had too, my strength was starting to fail. I reached the end of the wall and was greeted by a big open area. Looking behind me I could see a bunch a guards. Right then I made the biggest decision of my life. I'm not going back to that cell. With the moon hanging in the sky in front of me I used the last of my strength to get away from the building. About two hundred yards from the building I turned and dropped to me knees. I was looking at the sword in my hand when the guards caught up to me. " I'm not going back to that cell. I will take my own life before I do."

When one guard took a step towards me I set the blade against my neck on the left side. That brought him to a stop. " I'm not playing assholes. I'll slice my throat and die happily." The looks of shock at my statement was enjoyable. The more I thought about it the more I realized that taking my own life was the only way. Till I heard the voice again.

" Why do you want to take your own life. I promised you I would set you free when I was set free." When I turned I was treated to the most beautiful being I had ever seen. She had to be about 6 foot tall. A beautiful midnight blue in color. Her mane and tail looked like the night sky and moved on its own. I turned back around when I heard movement. The guards had tried to move closer to me. I was about to drag the sword over my neck when I felt two arms wrap around me.

" No, please dont. I will protect you and do as I said. I am Princess Luna. What is your name?"
