absurd concept today:
turtles are extremely long-lived animals. I think the oldest known so far died at 250 years. That means he was born in the eighteenth century!
remember that even in the eighteenth century, Captain Cook gave a giant turtle to a monarch. The turtle in question accompanied the family real for nearly two centuries.
Now is when I ask you to imagine: A queen of the dynasty. It is a sadistic repressed. When nobody's looking, likes to torture the turtle. The pricked with pins. Burning with lit candles. The turtle is too slow to flee. Retreat into his shell serves no big deal.
Nobody suspects the behavior of the queen, who at ninety died peacefully in his bed, of natural causes. He goes on to posterity as a good lady.
elapse decades, or even over a century ...
... and the queen is reincarnated in a humble little girl.
One day, the little girl visits the gardens royal palace. When the turtle is the child recognizes her as the sadistic son of a bitch that you fucked old life. Turtles have an instinct for that.
Now his former lady love is not robust, no ... Now is a creature much smaller than the turtle itself. Giant tortoises live up to their name. They can weigh 200 kilos!
The testudo is directed toward the girl, smiling innocently. The poor kids did not understand what is happening until it's too late. The animal lengthens the neck and bites his ankle. The girl screams. The turtle pulled hard on the children's leg, making the girl fall to the ground. Before that little has time to get up, your pet past lives begin to trample, breaking bones with his two hundred kilos.
and bite his face. Several times.
When the palace gardeners manage to remove the turtle, she has received a good beating. It takes months to recover, his face disfigured forever. But that's not the worst.
worst thing is that while being assaulted, she reads a lot of truth in the eyes of the turtle. There is a connection in that look. Somehow, she knows she deserves what is happening. Do not know what he did to deserve it, but knows that it has earned.
And that child will grow with deserve the worst feeling in life, but without knowing what the hell has done to deserve it.
