There was no victory for me...
I knew it...
Because it's tonight...
It's tonight...

I sit in my cell room alone with my thoughts and fear, after driving my cellmate away...
They're just tryna scare the shit out of me...
And honestly, it's working...
I know I don't have much time to prepare but my body has a mind of its own...
On its own accord, I start with press up...
After doing like 20 lapses, I start to jog ...
Tryna stretches out all my muscles...
My mind suddenly flashes back to me punching someone in a boxing ring and my hands move along to the movement...
It was like I was reliving my old memories again...
I felt like I'd recovered a part of me that was long dead but I'm glad I did...
It made me feel so much alive...
I might be a serial killer or whatever but I ain't gonna die in her hands tonight...
I hope I don't...
I collapse on the floor catching my breath..
My cell room opens and I turn around to see Nelly...
"Oh my gosh, Nelly..." I squeal as I sprint up on my feet to hug her...
"Are you feeling better..?" I ask her
"Yeah!! I wanna appreciate you for saving my life..."
"I didn't do anything Nel... you're family..."
"You should be resting.."
"Beyoncé request your presence and I wanted to take a stroll... Stretch my legs a little.."
"Let's head back... I'm carrying you.."
"Nah, my cell is just three cells away... I walked here... I can walk back.."
"Aiye captain, let's go..." I held hands with her as we walk back...
"You aren't tryna talk me out of this, are you..?" I ask
"I wish I could... That's why you're here.." She answers and her cell opens up...
And we walked in, I salute others before sitting beside Nelly on her bed...
"I guess you know why you're here..?" Beyoncé asks
"Yeah!! It's obvious..." I reply nonchalantly...
"You know you still got time to back out from this insanity .." Beyoncé told me
"Thanks but no thanks... Y'all should stop tryna discourage me..." I half yell
"Beyoncé is only concerned about you... Maureen is dangerous, that's the reason no one dares challenge her.." Esther speaks up trying to reason with me...
"That's the fuck reason I'm doing this... We all need to stop living in fear... We're all gonna be here probably till we die or until we've served our sentence or be killed.." I state...
"Stop being stubborn Joanne... Shit!" Beyoncé cursed...
"You won't live to tell the tale if you continue down this path bitch.." she mutters
