Months later, he learns that the world he once knew is gone, replaced by a merciless world he now knows.

Infected

Chapter 8: Prisoned

Thank god that I didn't get anymore nightmares. I woke up the next morning and realized that ava was gone. I looked in my room to see that ryan is also gone. "They must've went home." I thought. I got up, picking up my bandana, putting it on, and went outside to go to ryan and ava's apartment room. "Hey guys! Wake up! You don't want the Dusk Soldiers to wake you up, do ya?" I said, with my tail wagging. My tail wags when I'm excited to see someone, don't judge me! No response. My tail stopped wagging as I knocked again. "Ava? Ryan?" I said again.

No response.

"Maybe they woke up before me?"

I shrugged my shoulders and started to walk outside of the apartment. When I did,

"Freeze!"

I stopped walking and looked to my left. A group of Dusk Soldiers had their guns pointed directly at me. "Whoa! Whoa! What did I do?! All I did was get out of bed, and now you're causing trouble!?" I yelled, with my hands up. "Get on your knees!" another soldier yelled.

"Wha-"

"GET ON YOUR KNEES!"

I rolled my eyes and, with my hands still up, I got on my knees. "Now what? What do you want me to do? Bow down to you?" I said, smirking. Suddenly, something hit me on the back of my head, knocking me out.

...

"Cain! Wake up! Please, cain! Wake up!"

"Give up, princess, he's been hit hard."

"B-but, Ian! He's strong! Cain's strong, I know he can-"

"OI! What part of he's out cold don't you understand, you FLOOSY!"

"Don't call my sister a floosy you jerk!"

"Yeah, stop being such a jerk, Raven."

"Shut it!"

"Ah! Sis, cain's waking up!"

"Cain!"

I woke up, with intense pain from the back of my head. "Owww...what the heck happen?" I asked. "Well...we've been caught." ryan answered. "Crap..." I thought. A black and white cat went behind me and wrapped my head with bandages. "You guys broke the rules too?" I asked. "Yep, we fucked up." he answered. When he was done, a orange cat with blue hair and eyes walked up to me and held his hand out. "Ava told us a lot about you, cain." he said, helping me up. "I'm Ian. That's raven,"

"Hey."

"Rai."

I turned to a red and light red cat. He turned away, looking out the window. "And that's Lakey." I turned to a yellow cat with light brown on his ears and tail. His torso is white and he has a very cheerful personality. Lakey was wearing a red cap on his head, backwards. "Sup!" Then, I noticed a gray and white cat, in the corner of the room. "Who's that?" I asked, pointing to it. Ian turned to the cat and said,

"That's Shadow. She's extremely shy and I don't think she talks."

"Awww.." I said, walking up to the cat, who quickly ran and hid underneath the bed. "Whoa! I'm not going to hurt you!" I said. "I wouldn't waste your breath. She's not worth talking to." Rai said, still looking out of the window. "Rai! Don't say that!" Raven yelled. "Hey, don't yell at me! You say that too!" rai screamed at him, jumping off the top bunk bed. "I DO NOT!" Raven yelled. Raven and Rai started arguing at each other. "Hey, hey, hey! Guys! Don't fight, we're bros!" Lakey said, putting an arm around Raven and Rai. But, an angry vein appeared on rai and raven's head as they both yelled at lakey,

"Shut that hole in your face!"

Lakey's face expression was a shocked face expression. His face stayed like that. Ava, ryan, and ian tried breaking up the fight rai and raven was having. Before I knew it, the entire jail cell was filled with screaming. I covered my ears, anger slowly filling me up, and I yelled,

"ENOUGH!"

Ryan, ian, ava, lakey, raven, and rai turned to me. "What the heck is the matter with you guys!?" I yelled. "Aren't you guys a team!? Friends!? Friends, don't argue! They work TOGETHER! Right now, you guys are acting like a bunch of KIDS!" "Hey!?" ryan growled. "Except you, ryan." I added.

Ryan smiled warmly.

*Silence*

"Yeah...you're right...sorry."

Rai said, looking away at raven. "Tch...Right..." raven sucked his cheeks. "Cain's right. We've been here for a MONTH, guys. We still didn't even think of an escape plan. If we're going to be a team, we're going to need a plan," Ian said. "So cain...got an ideas?" "Wait! I got one!" Lakey said, with a large smile on his face and his brown eyes gleaming with excitement. "What if...we capture one of the guards, take their outfits, gather information that's going on around the prison, aaannnnndddd...BOOM! We are freee!" Lakey said, smiling at us, waiting for our response.

*Silence*

"You don't like my idea?" lakey whined. "No, no...that's actually a great idea, Lakey." Ian said, smiling. Lakey's face turned red. "Aw, shucks." he said, bashfully. "But it's risky." Rai added. "CRRRAAAPPP!" Lakey yelled, running to a bunk bed to bury his face in a pillow. "So, one of us has to do it." Raven said. "You know I can't fight." ryan said, quickly. "We need someone...slim. Who can squeeze through these bars." Ian said. Everyone looked at me. "Me? But I can't-" I said, shaking my head. Suddenly,

"I can."

I turned around and saw the shy gray and white kitten crawling out from underneath the bed. "Oh! So you CAN talk!" lakey said, happily. Shadow slowly nodded her head. "I'm...shy and...quiet." shadow said, quietly.

*Silence*

"I like her."

Ryan suddenly said, blushing. Shadow whimpered, blushing embarrassedly. "Are you sure you want to do this?" I asked, putting a hand on her shoulder. Shadow nodded her head. "Okay, here's what we are going to do..." Lakey said, slowly repeating his plan.
