Welcome to the mile...

It was 1935 and it was a hot sunny day. Inmates singing a tune while they dig up the dirt for a new trail to be put down. Guard wolves were patrolling the area in case someone tried to escape. in the distance you could see the inmates trying to pull a stump from the ground for the trail to be put in. Their were all sorts of inmates here. Their were black wolves, white wolves, Hispanic, Indian, etc. if you broke the law in your wolf pack you come here to Jasper penitentiary. It wasn't the nicest thing in 1935 but it's a prison, its not suppose to be nice. But in a different area of the prizon was a different block. It was called E block, that's where death row inmate go.

It was the middle of the afternoon when a small group of alpha wolves walked up to the main entrance of the prison. they all surrounded the prisoner that was going to E block. The guards opened the first gate and they walked in then they stopped for further instructions. The guard in the tower picked up the telephone and he talked into it. "Get me E block" he said with no expression.

Lilly's POV

It was getting close to the time for the new inmate to arrive and my boss was using the bathroom. I could hear her painful cries even though she was quiet about it. I knocked on the bathroom door to check up on her. "For god sakes just give me a minute" She said in a pained voice. "Kate are you alright" I asked as I looked at the floor. "Jesus, it feels like I'm pissing razor blades" Kate replied. I just smiled ever soo slightly. She opened the restroom door wiping the sweat off her face with a small cloth. Kate noticed me staring at her and then she spoke to me. "What? It isn't as bad as it was. it's clearing up" She said as she walked over to the soon-to-be occupied cell. Then after chuckling a little I heard the phone ring. "Ring...Ring...Ring..." I walked over to the phone and i picked it up and placed it by my ear. "Yes...thats right...right" Then i hung up the phone. "You should have taken the day off to see the doctor" I said with a small smile. "With a new inmate to put away, you know better than that" she replied. I walk to the steel door and look out the 2 by 6 window and saw the group of guards. Wonder why they need so many" I said to myself. Then I saw our 2 guards and the prisoner. "Woah..." I said to myself as they walked towards the door. "You might wanna think twice before getting into a cell with this wolf. He is huge" I said as i smiled a little bit. "He cant be any bigger than Garth" She said smiling a little bit thinking it was a joke. I just gave her the whatever-you-say look then i opened the door.

Kate's POV

The cell door was open and we were ready for the new inmate when i heard Garth yelling. "Dead wolf...We godda dead wolf walking here" he said as he was walking towards the building. "Jesus Christ what is he babbling about" I said with a little frustration. He continued to say those same words all the way to the building he was even saying them walking in the building as well. As the prisoner entered the block everyone except Garth was looking at him. My shallow smile quickly turned into one of those Oh-my-god looks. Garth just kept yelling up a storm till i spoke up. "Garth!" I said sternly. He quickly turned to face me. "That's enough" I said quietly keeping the noise to a minimum. After a few moments of walking the prisoner and the guards stopped with the prisoner standing in front of me. It was silent for about a minute or so cause we were checking this wolf out i mean he was big. "hey Garth, go and see if they need any extra paws down in the infirmary" I ask without looking at him. "They got all the help they need" He replied with sarcasm. "Well why don't you just go and find out" I asked kindly again. "Na, they don't need any extra guards" He said laughing a little. by now i was getting frustrated with his attitude. "I don't care where you go as long as it's not here at this very second" i said getting serious. he laughed a little bit then turned around and started to leave, almost running into Lilly. as he was walking away, one of our inmates was chuckling to himself when we heard a sickening snap then a scream. Garth had taken his knight stick and broke his paw. "Wiped that shitty grin off your face didn't I" he said with a smile. "God damn it Garth get the hell off my mile" I said with anger. After laughing a little bit he walked out the door shutting it behind him. "Don't worry Shakey well get that looked at for ya but in the mean time, just stay quiet ok" I informed in a polite way to calm him down. "...ok boss" He said holding his paw in pain. Then i turned my attention back to the new inmate.

"am i gonna have any trouble out of you big boy?" I asked but he didn't reply. I looked at him weirdly and asked him a different question. "Can ya talk?" I asked. A couple of seconds went be then he replied. "Yes ma'am boss. i can talk" He said in a soft and quiet voice as if he were scared. "You got a name?" I asked looking at a file on our new inmate. "yes ma'am. Humphrey" He said in that same tone. "My name is Kate, I am in charge here. If i am not here you can always ask for Lilly, Garth, Mooch, Tony, or Cando. You got any questions?" I asked. "Do you leave the light on after bed time? I get scared of the dark sometimes and was just wondering" he asked in a sad tone now. "It stays pretty bright in here all night long" i answered back with questioning eyes. "If i take these chains off of ya, you gonna be nice?" I asked. he simply nodded his head so i took the chains off of him. after a minute he stuck his paw out as if he wanted a handshake. I looked at my fellow co workers then back to Humphrey. I put my paw out as well and we shook paws. During the paw shake i felt something inside me, something i didn't like. it was the feeling that this wolf was different then any other wolf. "you can sit" I said eye balling the bed. He walked over to the bed and sat down on it. Cando then shut the door to Humphrey's cell and i began to chuckle a little bit. not at the new inmate though. I took one final look at Humphrey and my emotion change from happy to scared then he said something. "I couldn't help it boss...I tried to take it back..but it was too late"
