Hard Week
How can I fully describe this last week without using the phrases beat down, chewed up and spit out, fighting to gain ground?
I am completely drained- all my energy and strength is has been sapped. I feel like someone has held me under water and then wrung me out until there was no blood or chakra left. Yet even in this weakened state, I am more dangerous.
Ever been around an injured animal? The pain of the injury doesn't dampen the fury, only makes her more determined to survive.
To be victorious.
Plainly, the desire for victory, the desire to prove them wrong furthers my determination. So what if the prize isn't all that in your eyes- it's my eyes that count! I will have my victory, sayeth the Queen, and woe unto those who try to stop me!
Yet still I am weary- must needs sleep.
Dreams.
And I go into torpor.....
