I am so thrilled and happy that this story is doing well already! Thanks everyone!:) Before we begin, here again are the guidelines and some other important things:
Chapter Summary: Jack is sent to prison for life and meets his new cell mates. Joy.
BTW: I am not all that familiar with prison rules etc., just doing a little research that's necessary. So if any of you guys have any little information that would be useful that would be awesome:) And for the record, I am aware that Guantanamo Bay Camp Delta has 12 guards for each prisoner but not in this story so it's convenient to the plot lol.
Chapter Rating/Warning: T for language and, well, things that should be T rated in prison life:p
Paring(s): Jack x Tiana & Red (OC) x Glimmer (OC)
Disclaimer(s): I own nothing; Rotg, cover, characters, etc. I only own my OC's
Characters: I changed Toothiana's/Tooth's (the Tooth fairy) name to 'Tiana Queen' because of Tooth-iana, put the 'T' in front of iana and you get Tiana and since she is the 'Queen of the fairies...' well, I think you understand. Sanderson is an extended version of Sandy/Sandman. Aster is Bunnymund's/Bunny's (Easter Bunny) name: E. Aster Bunnymund. Nick is North/Santa.
Enjoy! Oh yeah everyone, IT WAS MY BIRTHDAY... YESTERDAY!XD On the 7th! I'm 14!:) Anyways, again; enjoy
"Jackson Overland Frost, you are sentenced to life in prison for your record of being a murderer and a thief. Case closed." The jury banged his gavel as everyone in the court began to stand and take their leave.
For the past 48 hours, Jackson was shipped off to Cuba, Guantanamo Bay in Camp Delta, one of the top jails in the world for the worst of the worst. He was then given a tour, interrogated, filed, and researched by the FBI and CIA and was now sentenced to life in prison.
Jack cussed in his mind. He had kept his mouth shut the entire time except for a couple statements when he was interrogated such as; "I didn't kill those five kids, I was assigned to, but they were already dead." and, "I don't deny the fact that I kill and steal, but under my boss's orders whom I know nothing of." Life in prison? The impact crushed Jack's insides to smithereens. He was only 18! As guilty as Jack felt, he did not accept his fate the least bit, he didn't like it and wanted out. Especially the fact that he didn't kill those kids.
But one thought in particular struck Jack odd; What about the Mysterious Man? Of course, all of Jack's belongings had been confiscated from him, including his phone, and he couldn't contact his now ex-boss nor could his ex-boss get a hold of him. But Jack knew that the Mysterious Man had stabbed him in the back somehow. This was his doing, and Jack needed to get out for he felt that something else was brewing 'behind the scenes.'
When Jack thought about what this entire motive was, his mind always trailed back to the children. One of them now at least; Jamie Bennett. Of course, Jack's mind was very could at solving puzzles and uncovering mysteries so it was custom of him to trace down the facts to identify and determine the solution... and it all came down to that ten year old.
It was like chess; Jamie was the opposing teams king, the Mysterious Man was the player on the attacking team and Jack was the Mysterious Man's chess pieces. All the other chess pieces on the opposing team were all the other crimes Jack had committed and overcome to finally get his hands on the king. But sadly, crime was not a mere chess game, it was real life and the reason why the Mysterious Man was after poor Jamie was unknown, but that's what Jack needed to know.
Jack's deep thoughts were interrupted when a tall and bulky guy grabbed him and (pretty much) dragged him down the hall to his sell.
"Yo man! Watch it..." Jack said as he tried to squirm out of the man's iron grasp but to no prevail. Jack glanced at the guard's nameplate; 'Aster' "...Aster." Jack sneered.
Aster was a tall, bulky strong man. Australian, 6'1, nerves of steel, master of tai-chi, very short tempered, quick to attack and judge... your typical bad ass, like Jack. Aster had raven black spiky hair (similar form of Jack's except for the obvious duality in color), evergreen eyes that were in slits, a strong jaw, blue inked tattoos covering much of his body, and a belt holding a club and a pistol. And by the look of the badge the guard proudly wore on his chest, he was the top guard.
"Knock it off ya bloody show-pony! Never seen a guard like me, yer never getting out, mate..." Aster snarled at Jack as he shoved him in a cell, causing Jack to stumble inside. "Have fun in there for the rest of your life, asshole." Aster spat before slamming the cell door shut locked before he walked off.
Jack barged up to the cell door and rattled it before giving up and tossing himself on the bed with defeat. That escalated quickly... Jackson thought as only two days ago he was as free as a bird. He was outraged and Jack wanted to find out more, but he was stuck here forever. It was over for him. He rolled over onto his back and stared up at the ceiling.
He needed to get out of this god damn cell, but how? Well, for starters, Jackson was forced to share a cell.
"Hey." Came a voice from the other side of the cell.
Jack hadn't even took notice of the person he was going to share his eternity with -no, not that way-, but Jack had to admit, he was not disappointed with his partner.
Her name was Tiana Queen, that's all Jack knew. Pretty Asian girl from the south by the look of it. Fair tan skin, shaggy black hair that bobbed at her neck, dyed a yellow, green, and a little bit of blue... wild. She would look stunning in an equally wild skirt and tank top but she was forced to wear a white jumpsuit, but she still looked pretty sexy. (Jackson had to wear an orange jumpsuit and he looked hideous.) Tiana had a nice body and a dazzling smile as well to go along with her emerald glittering green eyes with long lashes. She was a bit on the short side as the top of her head nicked Jack's chin. But she was dashingly beautiful.
"Are you Jackson? The dude with the high crime profile and murderer of five kids?" Tiana asked with no emotion except for the obvious pitch of a question.
"Uh, yeah." Jack said, equally un-emotionally.
Tiana snorted. "Well, you shouldn't have gotten caught! Seriously? A kid? Wow..." She whistled sarcastically.
Jack bared his teeth and bolted to Tiana's corner. "Look it, I didn't mean to get those kids in hell. I didn't even kill them! I was assigned a job to, but they were already dead. I need to get the hell out of here." He said in a low voice with stern eyes.
Tiana waved her hands in surrender. "I got ya, I got ya, chill!" She informed casually as she snuck out of her trapped corner. "Look it kid, we all have our sad stories. I was under a cooperation too and got stabbed behind the back. You think you have it bad? I've been trapped in this hell-hole for two years, since I was fifteen. Not pretty." Tiana vented, letting out some emotion as she kicked the bars with aggravation.
"What's your record?" Jack asked sheepishly yet with strong curiosity.
Tiana strode over towards Jack and smirked while she leaned into his chest and face. "I'm an assassin." She whispered with a giggle.
Jack frowned, but eventually it turned into a smile. Jack really never enjoyed being a criminal; stealing and killing, but Jackson could not help but find a strange and peculiar beauty to Tiana. Her record had not dampened his expectations and view on her. What she did seemed appalling, Jackson couldn't agree more, but he also found it to be very likable. And all that Jack knew was that assassins were pretty awesome at their job and could really kick ass. What a girl... he'd have to challenge her sometime! (Although he'd win of course, but go light on the lady...)
"Of course then one day I got jipped as my boss turned his attention to someone else and then sent me on a mission to blackmail me. A whole different story, not really worth our time." Tiana informed nonchalantly as she shrugged it off.
"But, you should know that we're not alone." Tiana smirked once more. "Come on-" She said as she grabbed Jackson's arm and slammed him into the front cell to grab the man's attention from the other side.
"Was that necessary?" Jack hissed.
"Absolutely." Tiana sneered with glee, not catching Jack's own smirk of approval. "Come on out, Sanderson. We gotta new grean-bean over here." Tiana called out.
Jack braced himself as he expected a large, husky man to appear from the cell. But instead, a short, slightly plump man presented himself who looked about in his thirties. He had spiky, messy, dirty blonde hair and big honey colored eyes along with a wide mouth. He wore striped pants, a white T-shirt and black sneakers. He looked tough all around to be honest, for a pudgy guy. He had golden teeth and was smoking a thick tobacco cigarette.
Sanderson nodded at Jackson as he puffed out smoke.
Jack shuffled side to side, waiting for Sanderson to say hello or something. "So, I take it we're skipping the whole; 'hello, nice to meet you,' part of the conversation?" Jack said, a bit ticked off.
Tiana scoffed and faced Jack. "Don't be expecting him to say anything. Or to even open his mouth for that matter..."
Jack's eyes grew wide, "How come?" He whispered, turning his back towards Sanderson.
"His tongue was cut out." She whispered.
Jack grimaced as guilt pooled inside his stomach. Yikes. Jack dare not ask how. He slowly turned around and face Sanderson sheepishly who had a growl on her face with his arms folded over his chest. "Sorry." Jack said as Sanderson rolled his eyes.
"Hey, is your nickname Sandy?" Jack asked, changing the subject.
Sanderson frowned and shook his head 'no.' Knowing that the teenager was implying that he wanted to call him that.
"Aw, but don't you think Sandy has a nice ring to it?" Jack teased.
Sanderson, or Sandy, shrugged and retreated behind the wall, unseen. It wasn't like Sandy was a bad person, he had just grown a little cold over the past decade, but deep down he was actually a nice man.
"Well, that wasn't a yes nor a no!" Tiana said cheerfully.
"What did he do?" Jack asked with curiosity, wondering what such a small man could do.
"Sanderson used to be a mastermind in a gangster of thievery and shoplifting. They were all gunned down approximately ten years ago, only Sanderson lived. He's sentenced in prison for life." Tiana explained.
"For life? Isn't that a bit harsh?" Jack exclaimed with shock.
"Well, the things he stole weren't anything tacky let me tell you; jewels, government codes, and other top secret things. And he had been very infamous for it all his life, I'm afraid. He's actually a quiet and nice man at times but can and normally is ferocious. But he's got brains, smart guy." Tiana shrugged again with a light smile on her lips. Jack frowned with disbelief at the 'quiet and nice' part of Sandy.
"I myself am sentenced for life, like you, except I might be able to get a pass, but you can't!" She cried out with glee as she flashed her dazzling smile but with a cheesy intention.
Jackson rolled his eyes in defeat. "Thanks." He spat sarcastically before muttering about women and their bright side to things.
"You're welcome!" She answered, not caring to play along. Her eyes then snapped open as she remembered something, "Oh! There are a few others I want you to meet!" She dashed over to the right side of their small cell and called out to grab the cellmate's attention.
Joy. Jack thought after he walked to the side of his cell to meet the person on the right. Well, the couple on the right; a boy and a girl.
"Jackson, this is Red and Glimmer." Tiana greeted.
"Hey." They both said, not really looking up.
First thing Jack noticed was that Red had some serious piercings and tattoos. A hoop on his nose, a hell-bunch of hoops and studs and wires on his ears, two studs on one of his eyebrows that was shaved off, and a pierced tongue. Bold. Red also had some wicked tattoos covering his entire body, not much skin was showing except for his face that was, again, covered in piercings (and a few bare patches of lucky bare skin). But what got Jack was a huge and blistering burn mark on Red's face (covering one blind eye while the other one was a hazel brown), back, and arm. It was overwhelming and intense. Red also had a limp with rich brown, untamed hair. He smelled of alcohol and looked stoned. A tough guy. He was dressed in gray slacks.
Glimmer on the other hand was like a precious rose; rich, gorgeous, flowering with beauty... but with dangerous thorns. Glimmer's light blonde hair ended at her low waist as her hair by then was ghostly blonde and very light and wispy, almost as if it began to vanish into thin air. It wasn't just beautiful hair, it was sick too as all of it was tossed to one side while the other side of her head was buzzed. She had pale ivory skin with stern gray eyes and fluttery eyelashes and bright pink lips. She wore a pink tank top and white baggy pants. She also was extremely seductive looking with her curves and hard glares and other attractive gestures.
The duo were tall, thin, and sinister looking.
"Red and Glimmer are both in here for life as well. Red's nineteen and is a drunk and addict, a serious law breaker, and terrorist attacker. Planting bombs, gunning down places and setting the dang thing on fire." Tiana said with great enthusiasm as all Jack could realize how Red got all those scars and burns. "And boy, can he drive a car!" She whooped, but she then looked at Glimmer as her features dampened and darkened. "Glimmer over here is eighteen and a rapist," Tiana sneered and then shuddered- "and was abusive to children." They could hear Glimmer snort. It was clear that Tiana and Glimmer shared some sort of rivalry. "And the two are lovebirds." Tiana informed Jack in a whisper.
Without saying a word to Jackson, Red and Glimmer sauntered away and slouched on the bed together. Jack puckered his lips with boredom as a "seriously?" expression crossed his face. What an interesting duo.
"One more." Tiana winked. Before she could get a head start, Jack was already literally one step ahead of her as they both made their way towards the left.
"Hey Flora! Come on out!" Tiana said to the figure in the distance.
A girl emerged from the shadows. Jackson immediately jumped at the girl as she looked like a mere fifteen year old, which she was. Flora. Flora was African American, short, and strong looking. She in fact was Glimmer's sister, but not by blood. They were stuck together at a young age. Flora was charged for life in prison as she was a master drug dealer, planter, and stow-away. Flora had scraggly red hair that was crimped tight into a braid. Freckles covering her face as her eyes were black pits. She wore a navy blue T-shirt and black pants. Tiana also explained that she had a forgiving side but mostly her rotten side showed. Mistaken child...
"Red, Glimmer, and Flora ganged a while back and called themselves the Seasonal Siblings. Hear of 'em?" Tiana asked Jackson at the end.
Jack just shrugged, it was a lot to process.
"And by now you've noticed we've been sentenced for life and seek revenge- we want to get out." Tiana stated.
Jack looked up at her as he noticed Sandy, Red, Glimmer, and Flora watching him behind their bars.
"We are willing to help you get out. Only if you take us with you... and gain our trust." Tiana finished.
Jack smiled lightly and nodded. Maybe this wasn't so bad! Or was it?
There is is everyone! Yush, before Thursday!XD But, sorry if there are mistakes and it's rushed, I promise I'll look it over. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed the little introduction to our main characters! Please leave a review as the (already) support is much appreciated:) And 14 year, here I come!;) Thanks again! Peace!
