"Jayson today, you won't be going to the commons area. today," the guy that opens our cells smirks, "well, we'll just let you find out." he motions me to follow him and I see a blade, completely wrapped in cloth, on his back.
"You're a sin eater, aren't you!" I say as we round the corner an he agrees with me and thrills me where I'm going and what I'm going to do when I get there.
"On your knees, now!" The two armed guards say, I obey cause I'm going to talk to the warden today. "he's clean, kid go in and take a knee when the warden turns around.
"He- hello. warden.? I say after I take a knee.
"Hello boy. I hear you are a blood bender, oh wait it's a deadman now. am I right?" I nod so he continues.
"I have a deal for you... If you want. You find and fight others like you and I'll lower your sentence." I get up off my knees and give him a glare that makes him uncomfortable, which is saying something.
"One, I'll take your deal... If you throw something else in with the sentence lowering." I pause and catch my breath. "You have to allow me half an hour alone in the yard, so I can fly"
He starts to laugh, until I unfold my scaly wings out.
"Holy shut kid, what are you. You-you're an abomination!" He stops and reconsiders his words. "Sorry, we have a deal. At night you will get half an hour to fly, granted first escape attempt means it gets revoked." I nod and we head out, the warden slinging his arm around my shoulder like we're old drinking buddies or some shit.
"Get this man a DM card. He's joining the crewship!"
I walk out to the yard and see Danica running my way, with two butches behind her. I put my hands in my pockets and calmly walk over and put her behind me.
"Gentlemen, gentlemen. What seems to be the problem? Why would two brutes like you be after little old Danica?" The first one started to talk when Danica interrupted them by saying she stole their DM cards. I look at them and grab the cards from her.
"See, you have your cards back. So let's call it even alright boys." I turn to leave when one grunts and the other grabs my shoulder. "Fine, I gave you a chance." I mumble before I turn around and grab the guys wrist, and lift him into the air, slowly shattering his arm. "Run!" I encourage the other as I drop his buddy. I let him leave, so I turn to Danica, "what do you think you're doing!! Don't risk anything!" She starts to look sheepish and starts to apologize when I tell her to stop. "Never apologize, okay?" She nods and I walk her back to the gang.
"Okay, explain to me what all DM cards do." Ally looks at me like I just hit her.
"How don't you know, it's just like a credit card. Us inmates get a small amount of credit on us for everything good and get some taken when we fuck up. A DM card is unlimited cash. We steal one we get an hour before they get turned off and we have to return them." Her jaw drops, seeing it in my front pocket, but quickly recovers so I don't notice. She walks over to me and acts all flirtatious. "All deadmen get them. So if you get one you'd tell me right?" She starts to walk away when I cough to get her attention.
"My card please. I noticed you grabbed it." She smiles and hands it back. I don't smile and go do my own thing for a while.
