Captive
by Hannah Walker
Once Upon a Time, during a fierce war, an extremely unfortunate trumpeter
happened to be at the wrong place and at the wrong time. Mind you, he didn’t carry
out some diabolical plan; he didn’t even do anything wrong, but thanks to his immense
history for ill-timing, don’t be surprised that the soldiers thought he was doing something suspicious. In-fact, he was only looking for an appropriate
mute, for his current one was starting to peel. Unsuccessfully the soldiers
thought he was an enemy spy trumpeter, not a regular trumpeter, so they attempted
to seize him after hollering a loud “For the King!!”
The Trumpeter was immensely confused by the sudden outbreak of, ‘For the
King!!’ And decided to run for his life, but was held back by the group of
loyal-to-the-the-king soldiers. Shocked but terrified, he groveled for his life,
pleadingly crying, “You see that I am unarmed, so let me be, for I was only
looking for a mute!!!”
Dumbly Usurped, the soldiers gave him a
perplexed stare, then the General smartly snapped back, “You may not be a
fighter, but you are now part of this war.” Now it was the Trumpeter’s turn to
be perplexed, as he made a questioning grunt, the General explained further. “You
will not fight, but will tag along, as our own, official Trumpeter!” Rudely smirking he added “As our Captive.”
