There's a bit of violence in this chapter just to warn you.

Chapter 2

Tia's New Life

Tia opened one of her eyes. Her cell was in complete darkness and it was so cold. Every little while a beam of torchlight goes across the back wall of her cell. She shivered. All Tia knew was that she was starving with hunger and was in bad need of a shower. She smelt awful and felt like shit. She couldn't believe she was going to spend the rest of her life here. A single tear streaked from below her closed eyelid.

Tia was awoken again by a banging on her cell door. It opened and a guard stood there.

"Get up you lazy bitch!" shouted the guard "Come here!" She went over to the door.

"Put out your hands!" he demanded. Tia stretched her shaking hands out shaking, he scooped burnt, sloppy porridge into her hands. She simply got as much of the food off her hands as humanly possible. The cell door was shut on her again. She heard a noise from Sinedd's cell and turned towards it.

"I'm amazed. It's like something off the fucking discovery channel," Sinedd laughed.

"So what you have to do that," Tia retorted. "Are all the cells like this?" asked Tia conversationally. She looked around her cell for the first time. The back wall of her cell was just a sheet of metal, the cell door was metal a part from a slit in the middle which had bars and the two walls either side of her had square holes so the prisoners could talk to each other.

"No, of course not," said Sinedd sarcastically "Mine is much bigger with a jacuzzi and hookers,"

"Oh just fuck off Sinedd," said Tia angrily.

"I know why you're so angry,"

"Oh really,"

"Yeah, cause you know Rocket's shagging every girl he meets,"

"Just shut the fuck up all right!" shouted Tia. Sinedd just smirked at her.

"Yeah well at least I have people who care about me," said Tia. Sinedd gave her a death glare and turned away.

"Tia," Sinedd said "Tia,"

"What!" she answered angrily."They're coming," Sinedd said urgently. She looked up but Sinedd wasn't there. Her cell door opened and two guards grabbed her and pushed out into some more prisoners. Tia opened her mouth but Sinedd shook his head at her. They were all dragged through the prison where they were divided into two groups. Tia felt petrified, she had no idea what was going to happen. Her group was pushed into a room.

"All of you strip off!" shouted a guard.

"What," muttered Tia. A women pulled her across.

"Do as he says, it's only a shower," said the women.

"Who are you?" Tia whispered.

"Sian," she whispered back.

"We have to shower shower with men?" Tia asked amazed."

Yes, they don't care about us. To them we're scum, the lowest of the low. To them we lost our human rights a long time ago," Tia began to strip off.

"Keep away from the guards here," Sian quickly said. Tia looked confused before Sian answered. "If they can they will rape you," Tia shivered again. How would she survive this shit hole.

They were pushed into a freezing cold room. She was squashed in between so many people. There was so many races of people, who were from so many different planets she hadn't heard of most of them. Suddenly freezing cold water fell on to her head. She shuddered as everyone around her jostled around. This was fucking horrible the water was freezing, there was barely any room to move and she kept getting stared at by a lot of men. The water was on for barely five minute. Once they were pulled, dragged and generally forced out. They put their clothes back on, even though they were all still soaking wet. Tia looked round as she heard someone shout. One of the prisoners had swung a punch at one of the guards. He continually hit the guard until his head smacked against the metal floor. Some other prisoners tried to get involved but the guards put up a barrier against them. Two guards wrestled the convict to the floor. He was struggling, but it was no good. One of the guards put a gun to his head and pulled the trigger. The man stopped struggling immediately as part of his head was blown a part with the force. The blood splattered across the floor along with part of his brain. Tia honestly wanted to throw up to try and help him, but she couldn't bring herself to look at him. She'd never seen anything so horrible and brutal in her life.

"Right take these things back to their cells!" shouted the guard who shot that poor man.

"What should we do with this?" asked another guard, gesturing down at the body on the floor.

"Just chuck it over board," he answered simply. Tia was shoved back into her cell. She sat on her bed and began to breathe. What the fuck just happened?
