Take this chapter. Happen to have a long weekend which is lucky. Don't expect more chapters until next week, however. I have two other stories that I need to write. Just so you know, I don't know much about prisons so this is my take on it.
Infinite's POV
We all stood in one big line inside the building. I looked around and noticed all the old photos and pairings of what I have to guess old prison wardens. There was an oldish smell that made my nose wrinkle.
We were waiting to get registered into this Hellhole. I really wish not to be here. I heard the questions that the person at the desk was asking.
"Name? Date of birth? Species..." All generic questions, I guess.
It wasn't long until it was my turn at the desk. All the prisoners that were finished had been led down the hallway to another room.
The... secretary? Is that what they're called? Anyway, was a female human. I wasn't used to such a Pearce population of humans here. I'm more used to large anthro populations. She began asking me questions. "Name?"
"Infinite." I responded. She wrote that down.
"Date of birth?"
"March 9th, 1988." I looked down at my cuffed hands in sorrow.
"Species?"
"Jackal."
Blah, blah, blah, basically.
After what seemed to be an hour, she was finished with me and told me to move on. I turned and walked out of the room where the guards escorted me to another room. I looked around in this room and saw a camera and a chart on the wall where it was facing. The chart was measuring upwards in inches with a few lights facing it.
"Oh, so I'm getting a mugshot, now am I?" I asked.
"Correct." One guard said. They turned me around and gave me a big card with some stuff on it. Inmate info, I guess. "Now stand by the chart and face the camera. Don't be stupid, if you don't want to be punished, filthy dog!" That made me look up at the human guard and growl slightly.
If I had my signature sword and my squad here, we would've enjoyed slitting their throats.
I walked to the chart and faced the camera, exactly what they told me to. I held up the card. A polar bear operated the camera and adjusted it down to my short height. "Don't blink."
A blinding flash ensnared me as I heard the 'click!' of the camera taking a photo. The white light went away and I could see again. "Is that it?" I asked. "I don't want to lose my eyesight."
"Ivan, how's the photo?" A guard asked the photographer.
"Perfect. Now, you!" He pointed at me. "Face your right." I did as I was told. They took another picture of me which luckily didn't blind me as bad. "And... we are good. Get him out of here. Next!"
I dropped the card not knowing what to do with it. Two guards grabbed my arms from behind from against my will and dragged me out of the room. "What the Hell-"
"Keep your mouth shut, capitalist." One barked at me. They dragged me outside back into the cold and threw me into a line of all other prisoners from before. "And stay in line." One of the guards pointed at me.
"Ow..." I got up. I inspected my elbow, which began to hurt. I noticed it was bleeding slightly from that scuffle, not like it was a big deal.
The others just gave me a few looks before looking down or elsewhere. I looked around and checked my escape odds. There was no way that I was staying here.
There were guards everywhere, watching us like hawks. All armed with their AK-47s. The huge walls that enclosed the prisoner were somewhat high. I could probably jump it if I got onto the roof on one of the buildings.
That was shut down by the guards on the walls, too. If there weren't as many, I could potentially escape. I didn't want to risk getting shot or even killed. These commies really didn't mess around.
I was was distracted from my thoughts as a fellow prisoner, another anthro was being manhandled like I was over to our line. They threw him down next to me. The guards like me, told him to get up and stay in line.
I shook my head and rubbed it. I was done for. I knew that surviving the rest of my life in this Hellhole was next to impossible. Not with the way prisoners were being treated here.
I can't believe that bastard Gadget had let me down. He promised to come get me, to give me answers regarding what happened during the gap in my memory that I couldn't remember.
I remember one of my squadmates... No, my squad wasn't just a squad, they were like family! Anyways, Nova, he was apart of us. He told me a while back that I put too much trust into strangers, especially after I became leader since I allowed two others to join. I always dismissed his claim.
Well, I admit he was right all along. I just never realized it until now.
Gadget was apart of that 'resistance' that absolutely hated me. He was just trying to get my hopes up that things would turn out for the better, which they increasingly weren't.
Ooh, Next time I see that little wolf...
So, that concludes that. Reviews please.
To anyone that says "Great chapter." "Amazing chapter." etc., I don't necessarily want reviews saying that. I want somewhat detailed thoughts of the chapter. Take what Guest is doing.
