Internal monologue #2

Where am I? I can feel some warmth on my face but all I can see is a blanket of dark red. Right, I should probably try to open my eyes. I do so, slowly getting use to the bright light. Wait, this place doesn't look familiar...where is the colourful play contraption and my friends? I try to move my head around but some kind of stiff material is preventing me from doing that. It feels as though I'm wearing some kind of oddly shaped hood. I kick my legs around to see if I can maneuver myself. It's no use! They seem to entrapped inside a large sack. I lift my arm only to see that I'm wearing some kind of puffy green sleeve. Am I wearing a....oh no! Please don't be what I think this is. Friends have told me about giants who dress little people into weird looking costumes, then flash bright lights into their eyes for a long period of time. Is that what they're going to do to me? I don't want that!

I squiggle and squirm, but it's not helping me get anywhere. It also hurts to move my head because the floor I'm lying on is hard and full of long cracks. I start to cry, maybe then someone would come and help me escape from this green prison. Oh look, it worked! I see a tall person with long brown hair looking down at me, smiling. Hello there, are you going to help me? Wait, what are you doing? What's that black box you've got there? She mumbles something. Sorry, I didn't catch that-Ow! I just saw a flash of light! Oh no, here we go! My eyes are wide with surprise. Oh no, it's starting, the torture is starting!

All I can do is lie here while to she flashes away with that dreaded thing! People are starting to circle around us, one by one. They are laughing. Laughing at my misery of course. My friends told me how these giants take pleasure in these sort of things. They think it's funny how they can easily take advantage of us! Stealing us away from our friends, dressing up in outrages outfits, then shining painful lights in our faces! It's so rude! The crowd of people disperse, and I am left alone again. I'll get back at them for this, they'll see! I won't be tortured and humiliated like this...but first, I think I'll finish taking my nap.
