Hello there guys. Finally got a new chapter out. Once again I am so sorry for the late chapter; college, work, and life is a butt munch. Thanks for all the reviews, follows, favorites you have given me. I appreciate it a lot. In addition to this, I have gotten an idea about another fic I want to start, so be ready for that one. Now, onto the story!

Chapter 2:

The second day at the prison came around like a nasty fever. It was hotter than normal outside and Deadman Wonderland assigned the prisoners all the annoying jobs to do for the day. They went from either construction to digging holes. Some of the prisoners had the "wonderful" task of cleaning every single bathroom in the prison. Ganta was a bit fortunate and was sent to move around large pipes from location to location. However, the issue was that he was barely able to carry them, starting to sweat from the heat and stress within an hour's time. He looked around at the other cellmates as the slow realization of this being his new life came to view. His mind wondered to when he was brought into the court house as a crowd of people surrounded the entrance. They were all shouting at him, calling him a monster and a coward. One even threw an egg at his head.

As the boy leaned the pipes on the wall, he came to the realization that his biggest fear came true: he was all alone. NO ONE believed he was innocent, his friends died at the school, and he had no parents since they died 10 years ago when the "Red Hole" happened. Tears began to form into his eyes as he began to silently cry, finally having everything bubble up to the surface. "Please… someone just kill me…"

A second passed when Ganta finally felt something near him. He turned just in time to see a girl land in front of him with her back to him, as if she jumped down from somewhere. She turned to Ganta with an innocent smile on her face. She had white hair and skin, accompanied by red eyes. She wore a skin tight white body suit with red design on them and brown gloves.

"You want me to kill you?" She asked innocently.

This was when Ganta snapped out of the daze he was in. He watched as this girl grabbed one of the poles he placed down. "I can do it in one swing." She said cheerfully, suddenly swinging for Ganta's head.

At the last sec, Ganta dodged the attack. She looked a bit confused. "Not if you dodge me though…"

Ganta looked confused. "What?" His brain finally registered that she heard what he said and was willing to kill him. She swung at him again, making Ganta dodge, falling on his rear end.

"HEY! What the hell is wrong with you?!" Ganta yelled at his assailant. "I don't even know who you are!" He dodged another attack as the pole flew at him.

The girl smiled. "Aha! That was a fib back there, wasn't it?" She approached Ganta, placing her hand over his heart. "See, this part of you wants nothing to do with being killed."

Ganta was speechless. Part of him did want to die; this hell hole already got to him within two days and he wanted out. It was at this moment that he realized that deep down he did want to live. He could not explain how he knew but he knew. He stared into her eyes for a few seconds, then looked away. "How could you know, we never even met."

The girl sat down in front of him. "Yes we have, silly."

The boy that she was leaning over, hand still on his heart, looked at her confused. "But then how come I don't remember you?"

"That doesn't matter. Ganta and Shiro are the bestest buddies." Said the girl, now named Shiro.

Ganta's head was beginning to hurt. Shiro got up, still smiling at him. "If you want to live, then cheer up!"

Now he was getting annoyed at this stranger. "Ok look, friends do not try to kill each other!"

Shiro looked curiously at him. "So, you wouldn't kill your friends."

Ganta froze for a sec. Finally, he had someone that believed he was innocent. Finally! "OF COURSE NOT! I WOULD NEVER INTENTIONALLY HURT THE PEOPLE I CARE ABOUT!" Some tears began to fall down his cheek as the emotions once again bubbled up.

Just as it finally got quiet, a helmet flew by and hit Ganta in the head. Both him and Shiro turned to see that it came from three well-built prisoners that must have been watching. "Do all mass murderers get treated like royalty here?" Said the one in the front.

The one on his left replied. "Dude, ease up on the kid. Just let it be man."

The first goon spoke up again. "Just saying, we have to do all the hard work while this runt does ditch digging doesn't seem like punishment."

The one on his right now spoke up. "He looks more like someone's door man than a psycho."

The first thug walked up to Ganta, who was still sitting on the ground. "Well, that is probably how he killed them all. I bet you got hard when you smeared your 'friend's' guts all over and when they gave you your sentence. What happened, did the popular kids pick on you?"

Suddenly Shiro pushed him over. "Leave him alone, Ganta would never hurt the people he cares about!"

"You… BITCH!" The downed thug roared, jumping up to slug Shiro in the face. Just when the fist was about to hit her, she expertly dodged and did a flip, kicking him with her bare shin to his face. When she wasn't paying attention, one of the other thugs slammed a shovel to the back of her head, knocking her out.

Ganta did not realize what he was doing until he ran up and grabbed the thug that hit Shiro. "You asshole!"

They struggled for a bit until Ganta got head butted and then kicked to the ground. "This is not a classroom you terd stain!" Yelled one of the cellmates as all three of them began to kick Ganta while he was down.

XXXXXXXXXX

"This day is so annoying." Sasuke sighed. He was walking around after he finished his chore. When he woke up in his own cell, he was told he had to make a structure that was going to be a ride at the amusement park by the end of the day without any issues or he would not eat for two days. He finished within two hours, earning shocked looks from prisoners and guards alike. When no one was looking, he used his sharingan and memorize the schematics of the ride, and then using his agility and speed put it together. Sasuke turned and walked away, but not after giving a "hn" of boredom.

He figured now that the stupid shit was done, he would search for the Ganta kid. "Knowing him, he will probably be in some stupid situation…"

As if on que, he turned the corner and saw his charge with a completely white chick and 3 other prisoners. "I bet you got hard when you smeared your 'friend's' guts all over and when they gave you your sentence. What happened, did the popular kids pick on you?"

Sasuke looked at the guy with a weird look. The only thought that came to his mind was how fucked up that is. Not even in the "that was too hurtful sense" or "that was disgusting" but more of the "that was really what came out of that idiot's mouth?" The girl that he just noticed was with them then pushed over the guy taunting Ganta. "Leave him alone, Ganta would never hurt the people he cares about!"

The downed thug roared, jumping up to slug Shiro in the face, not expecting her to expertly dodge and did a flip kick him with her bare shin to his face. Sasuke had to admit, he was impressed with her moves, but not with her sense of surrounding. When she wasn't paying attention, one of the other thugs slammed a shovel to the back of her head, knocking her out.

This was when Ganta went to attack the assailant, only to get head butted and then kicked to the ground. "This is not a classroom you terd stain!" Yelled one of the cellmates as all three of them began to kick Ganta while he was down.

Sasuke watched for a sec, being stuck in his spot as a memory of Naruto came to his head when he was getting beat up to protect him and Sakura. He sighed, knowing this might be a normal routine he would have to deal with, but wouldn't mind. "Hey dumbasses, you're grown men picking on a kid. Are you that pathetic that you beat up a brat to satisfy yourself?"

The thugs turned and stared down Sasuke with anger written all over their face. "Ah, so it's the foreign transfer. Seems like we hit the V.I.P. area. Just because you not from around here doesn't mean you're special, jackass. Fuck off and let the grownups play."

Sasuke shrugged. "I don't see myself as special. I just see three dumbasses picking on someone weaker than them because they are weak themselves. Needing to prove to themselves that they aren't when in actuality they will always remain as trash. Now, how about you all leave before this 'jackass' kid teaches the 'grownups' how to play?"

This was when all three of them came at Sasuke, each thug armed with a shovel, a pipe, and some kind of sharp tool. Sasuke blocked each of their attacks at the same time, exerting little effort. He used the one guy with the pipe to block the shovel by twisting the arm the pipe was in to block. Sasuke used his other arm (the one that was given to him from Tsunade using Hashirama Senju's cells) to block the final attack. "Hn, you all attack so sloppily. No wonder you pick on kids." He pushed each of them back, and jumped a bit away. The three thugs continued to charge at him, trying to at least scratch the Uchiha to no avail.

After a few minutes, Sasuke got bored with the thugs, landing a hit on each of them, knocking them unconscious. Sasuke sighed at the thugs and went to walk to where Ganta was when he heard explosions ring out. He looked up to notice that the base of the sign that was above them blew up, making the sign that was made out of solid concrete fall to where Ganta was. Sasuke began to weave signs. Suddenly a sharp pain surged through his body. "Damn, the seal… but I have to do this!"

Just as Sasuke finished weaving, he felt something. He looked to Ganta, noticing something different. The center of his chest began to glow.

Ganta's head was filled with a million thoughts as he watched the sign fell towards him. "No, I can't die. Not until I make him pay for what he has done, for what he did to me, to my friends, and to Mimi!"

Sasuke noticed that the blood that was trickling down his face and coming out of his cuts began to, almost like a river, flow to his hand, and turning into a ball with a weird hexagonal shape surrounding it.

"I WANT TO LIVE!" yelled Ganta as he raised his hand. The ball of blood then shot right at the sign, blowing it up to pieces before his eyes. Sasuke watched in shock, only to snap out of it when he realized huge pieces of shratnel was coming towards him. Using his speed, he dodged around the pieces of debris. Once the smoke that formed from the debris finally subsided, Sasuke looked to where Ganta was, seeing him in the center unharmed with the albino looking girl next to him. Ganta turned to her, nudging her. "Hey, are you ok? Please get up!"

She slowly woke up, turning to Ganta with a smile. "Don't worry, Shiro is A ok! Next time, let's eat our snacks together!"

Ganta sighed in relief that she was ok, and nodded. Sasuke was a bit confused by her but chose to ignore her. "You are lucky you are not dead, kid." Sasuke called to Ganta.

Ganta turned to Sasuke. "Hey, you're that Sasuke guy who helped me the other day. Thank you again for helping me then and just now."

Sasuke shook his head. "Listen, I am not going to be your guardian angel, I will only help you if you truly need it. But you need to stop being a weakling and fight for yourself."

Ganta looked to Sasuke a bit hurt. "No one here besides that girl likes you. They all think you are a crazy psychotic kid who killed his class. Seeing you act pathetic just makes you a target to them."

Shiro got up and went to push Sasuke, only to realize she was pushing air and that Sasuke moved to the left. "Stop being mean to Ganta!"

Sasuke looked to the girl and gave a "hn". Ganta looked to the ground, letting what Sasuke said get to him. "So, you think I killed them too… and here I thought you were a decent guy. I have had enough! I am tired of everyone saying I killed my friends! I didn't! It was the Red Man! Mark my words, I will prove you wrong, I will -"

"Will you just shut up." Sasuke interupped him. "You should not judge others based on first impressions, Ganta. However, with watching you for the two days that I have, I know you very well. You are a scared little boy who wants to regain the normal life he has and be recognized as innocent. Though, you are weak and too scared to try to do anything to better yourself. Even with that 'thing' you just used, the way you used it made it clear that it was your first time using it, meaning you did not have access to it before. Minus your new ability, you are weak. It is very easy to tell, just by looking at you. The fact that anyone thinks you massacred your whole class with the way you are now is a joke."

Ganta was about ready to scream in anger when Sasuke's last words hit him. "Wait… so you think I didn't kill them?"

Sasuke looked back to the boy. "Where I am from, it is dangerous. You live always watching your back, not knowing if someone is going to attack you. You learn to be able to tell if some is a danger or not, and also if they are a killer or not, just by looking at their eyes." He turned, almost giving a soft smile. "When I first saw you, I know you never killed in your life, thus I know you are indeed innocent."

Ganta smiled, now having two people on his side. "Thanks, I am glad someone believes me. It's nice to have someone, ya know"

Shiro smiled. "Now Sasuke can be friends with Shiro and Ganta! We can eat snacks together!"

Sasuke sighed n chuckled at the comment. "Now I know why this kid annoys me… he is like Dobe."

XXXXXXXXXX

Since he had no medical training whatsoever, Sasuke felt it was a good idea to take Ganta to the medical room to get patched up. He went to ask the albino girl something when he noticed she vanished. Sasuke just rolled his eyes as they walked in. The nurse patched him up quickly n smiled. "The fact you are young means you should heal just fine. It says here you are a death row inmate, have you eaten your candy?"

Sasuke and Ganta looked confused at the woman. "Candy… uh…" Ganta stuttered.

The nurse looked to them both. "You should have gotten it in the bag you received when you arrived here. I would check it over to make sure." She said as she left the room.

"Just a warning, the candy tastes like shit." Said a voice to their left.

They looked over and noticed the boy that got sliced by Makina on their first day at Deadman Wonderland. "It might have fallen out when I hit you with the cart dude. If you want to slug me I totally understand."

Ganta laughed a bit and rubbed the back of his head. "No no, it's ok. How are you? I hope you are ok."

The boy smiled. "I am fine. Just a flesh wound. However, it is how things are. Seems like you two are new so I will say this: if you keep your head down and follow the rules, you will survive. Trust me."

Suddenly the vents began to make noice. Sasuke was about to attack when he noticed the gate open, revealing the same albino looking girl from before. "Play with me Ganta!" She laughed as she jumped out.

Ganta and the other boy jumped. "WHAAAA! Vampire!" the other boy yelped.

Shiro just giggled. "I am not a vampire, I am Ganta's very bestest buddy."

Sasuke shook his head, getting annoyed by Shiro. "I'm sorry, just I never seen you before." The boy in the bed replied.

Ganta nodded to him. "I said the same thing, I don't know how but apparently we knew each other."

Sasuke looked to Ganta a bit intrigued. "Don't know… or don't remember?"

Shiro then glanced at and smiled again. "We should play a game today!" She then held a sign for a race that the prisoners could take part in.

The boy on the hospital bed sat up and looked at the poster. "Oh yea, that is in a few hours from now. I heard you will get a lot of Cast Points if you win. That is pretty much the currency for in here. You can get whatever you want from it, even buy off part of your sentence."

This part intrigued Ganta as he glanced at the paper. The boy on the bed spoke up again. "It can also get you more of the candy. In your case of how you always lose it, I would suggest that you at least try to win the race today."

Ganta nodded at the boy and ran off, who was then followed by Shiro. Sasuke looked to the boy with a questioning eye. "It's a bit odd that the same person who was with Ganta when he lost this 'candy' just so happens to have one for him. In addition to that, it is quite peculiar that you are so generous to help him. Care to explain why?"

The boy just laughed. "What, can't have any nice people in prison? I felt bad for what happened so I figured to repay him."

Sasuke knew he did not have too much time to spend on interrogating this boy. He simply nodded and went after Ganta. "It is way to coincidental that you are being nice. And I know the face of someone hiding something from everyone. I will find out what you are hiding. Mark my words."

OK! Finally got this down in the record books. I hope you all enjoy what I am writing so far. I am glad I am able to remember how I wanted this story to go, I would have felt bad if I just dropped this story. As per usual, you can leave a review if you want to. I hope you all have a good day. And as I mentioned above, I should be posting the beginning of a new fic by the end of the day. Cheers!
