The hallways were dark, dim, and dank. Each footstep was loud. Clank, clank, clank. I was unsure of how many of them were carrying me.

My thoughts were stuck on my last battle. My opponent's eyes lit up red, glowing brightly. It was a look I would never forget. It was something that would burn in the back of my mind forever.

I'll remember his words. We all spend life trying to live, but no one survives in the end.

It's true. Some just have to take their punishment.

I watched the ground, my head hanging low. With each swinging step, an armored guard's foot came into view. These men were trained to death for the unexpected.

They knew exactly who they were dealing with, my left wrist concealed in a stasis shield. They wanted no contradictions. They wanted to make sure I wouldn't fight back. They wanted to break me.

I wouldn't shed a tear. I wouldn't show weakness. I wouldn't break no matter what. They wanted to make my life hell.

After all… I was in this for a life sentence.

Quiet moans came from the cells that we passed. Muffled insults were ignored by me and the guards.

I closed my green eyes and tried to forget. I tried to forget the look on Gwen's face when she knew it was over. I tried to forget everything Kevin had promised me before I left. I tried to forget the look in their eyes when they knew there was nothing they could do.

And it hurts me all the more to know it'll kill them inside when this is all said and done.

I glanced out towards one of the more interesting cells, a vampiric creature snarling and egging me on. Locked away as it may have been, there's no use passing up a good fight. I learned that one from Kevin.

I've yet to learn the usefulness of it…

One of the guards felt he had the right to speak. "We flew you through thousands of light-years to get you here and you have yet to resist…"

I jerked my head to the left, staring at the iron, chicken wire-like flooring.

"I don't blame you…" The guard shook his head.

Moments later I was rudely thrown into a cell. A barrier was turned on almost simultaneously. They wanted no chance of escape.

Welcome to Intergalactic Jail, Tennyson…
