The Guards

[Unknown's Perspective]

"Within a week you managed to let all three of our major prisoners escape!" He shouted at us. "At least the ones who died made an effort!"

I felt my bottom lip begin to quiver. My best friend had been one of the last ones to die in the attack. I hadn't known what was going on until I heard him screaming; I had been too far away to hear the alarms. I already blamed myself for his death, I didn't need anyone else to.

"What's the matter?" he yelled at me. He had seen the weakness in my eyes. I should have known better than to sit in the front. "Is the baby gonna cry because someone's yelling? Are you going to go cry to your mommy?"

The room was eerily quiet as he walked over to me. Normally people would have been laughing at the but of his joke, but not today. We knew we were all in trouble. An attack on one of us was an attack on all of us.

"You are dismissed!" He shouted. I forgot my misery and just stared at him, jaw open.

I felt like everyone in the room was staring at me as I hesitantly stood up. They probably were all staring.

"I said," he yelled again when I just stood there, unsure if what to do, "DISMISSED!"

I ran out of the room and didn't stop.

I decided that I would find whoever had done this.

I would find the person who had killed my best friend.

Who had invaded my home

Who got me fired and kicked out.

And I would get my revenge.
