Loyalty Is The New Black

Slaine is off to OITNB.

My name is Slaine Troyard. Of course, that must sound familiar. After all, I "plotted the assassination" of the Martian Empress herself, and obviously started the second war between Earth and Mars. Yes, it's all true. Of course it is. Why wouldn't it be? That's why I'm locked up in this horrible prison anyway...
Even if Inaho Kaizuka told me I should live, I'm still a damn mess.
I don't eat still, all I do is sleep. The warden complains daily, and refuses to hire a consoler. Because, no one must know that I am alive. The only one who knows, is the person who visits me weekly, Inaho Kaizuka.
And today just happens to be my lucky day. Another visit from my former nemesis.

"You still aren't eating."
Inaho sat in front of me, saying the statement with slight disappointment in his voice. And with a bit of sympathy in his right eye.
Was he serious?

"I don't want to eat."
I sighed and placed my cheek onto my hand.

"You have to."
Inaho retorted.
I could only stare at him blankly. Even if I knew I had to eat, I still didn't want to. I just can't get myself to lift any type of food towards me. That's too much for me.

"Look. I'm fine, I'll be fi-"

"Slaine."

I was taken aback. Inaho had only said just my first name for serious reasons. It rarely ever occurred. And thus, I knew he really seemed to be worried about me. He had this worried look on his face...that always seemed like a sad little pup to me. But that's how I interpret that. I never got to know Inaho like this...
Maybe if I had before the war, things probably wouldn't have turned out like this. No, I still would have been the scapegoat to everybody. I'm still the villain in their eyes...in Her eyes.
Before I knew it, a tear strolled down my cheek. Damn it. The second time I've cried in front of Inaho.

"S-Slaine?" He looked at me even more worried. And it just made me cry more. I didn't want him to see me like this. To see me so vulnerable...I, hated it. "Are you okay?"
Nodding, I wiped the pointless tears with my arm. Although, that didn't stop me from sniffling.

"So? What brings you here?" I asked, not really having to.
Inaho glanced at me sadly, and quickly turned away when our eyes met.

"Well, I may have good or bad news. Depending on how you take this."

I paused. What could be the huge announcement?
"What is it?" I said with a little fear in my voice.

Inaho hesitated. He bit his lip a little, and then stared at me with complete seriousness, straightening his posture.
"Slaine. You're being transferred."

I smacked my hand against the table and quickly got up from my seat.
Being shocked was a total understatement right now.
"What do you mean? T-Transferred?!"

"Exactly that."

"What about keeping my existence a secret?"

Inaho had a complete indifferent look right now. As if he would calmly take a sip from a tea cup at this moment.

"Your name will be changed of course."

Sitting back down, his calmness had a slight effect on me.
"Who issued this?" I said with skepticism.

"I did." He sighed. "You don't seem to be eating here at all, so maybe a little human interaction will help, Slaine."

I stared at him. Human interaction, really? I mean the warden would disagree, they think I'm still a threat.
But I didn't tell him that.
"Ah," I gulped, "so...where will I be taken to?"

"The only prison that agreed to take you is a woman's correction facility in America."

My eyes widened. Was Inaho really being serious? His look was, and so was the air around him, but surely his statements weren't.
"A-America?" I paused. "And why a woman's prison??"

"Yes. If I recall correctly...it's called Litchfield, in the state of New York." Inaho shrugged. "It was the only prison around the world...that agreed."

I couldn't take this all in. Me, actually leaving this place? With a deep sigh, I smacked my face right into the table.
"When...do I leave?"

"Tomorrow."
Inaho said that so indifferently. Without a care in the world.
This is just unbelievable...
