I know it's short but I want to make the next chapter extra long
A shrill screech filled the hall where the two boys slept. Still curled up together they shot up at the sound clutching the other tighter. The redhead was the first to regain his full awareness and released the scared boy when he recognised the sound as the abbeys morning alarm.
"Kai its ok it's just the alarm" he assured patting the boys head in a patronising way
"It's horrible" he complained blocking his ringing ears from the continuing high screech that didn't seem to want to let up any time soon
"Don't worry it'll end in about a minute. It's just to make sure everyone's up though I doubt anyone'll still be sleeping with that racket" just as he finished his sentence the noise stopped and guards started to unlock the cell doors "come on get changed we have to go to training. Don't want to be punished on your first official day" the redhead grabbed the bluenettes arm pulling him out of the bed.
A hiss of pain halted him and he stared at the boy seeing him hold his upper arm cringing in pain. He immediately withdrew his hand feeling instantly guilty. He had made sure last night to be mindful of his arm now he had just been pulling it "sorry" instead of holding his arm again he lifted the boy from under his arms "what's wrong with your arm" he asked looking him in the eye. He hated the thought of someone being hurt before the abbey. He wasn't sure why but he thought it was because he had known a loving family before he wanted everyone to experience that.
"My grandfather used to punish me. The belt hit me hard and I heard a little snap after the hit" the redhead bit his lip. It sounded like he had a broken arm and broken bones weren't treated very gently here. The scientists who performed experiments and fixed the injured kids would snap the bones in place and add a pin and a lot of the operations were performed when the kid was conscious. It was mainly the guards that got an anaesthetic "you ok" the small boy asked shaking the redhead slightly
"What? Oh yea just thinking, anyway come on" the redhead guided the crimson eyed boy out of the cell, the door had been opened while he was thinking.
