"YOU!! DOWN ON YOUR KNEES YOU WORTHLESS SLAVE!!" A man in heavy scrap armor screamed to a malnourished woman
"NO!..IM DONE BEING YOUR SLAVE YOU BASTARD!! YOU HAVE TAKEN EVERYTHING FROM M—"
Another man came from behind and blew the woman's head off with a shotgun
"The bitch was being too loud Tommy." The man looked over at his friend with a cold face devoid of humanity
"Yeah..she used up all her worth anyway..let the slaves eat her body or something..i dunno,i dont care." 'Tommy' walked off
There was a banner,the banner of these slavers,it was just a crudely painted skull with a dagger in it
"Alright wraiths..ambushes from The Liberation Front's becoming more prevalent downtown..that means we need more manpower,anybody got any ideas." One of the superiors spoke to a group of 'Wraiths' outside under a tent
"We could conscript slave fighters..the toughest,brainwash them into becoming loyal like us..we're big but Liberation Front's got shit like AR-15s..we're stuck with these stupid Semi Autos..so how about we get bigger and smarter?" One of the Wraiths,obviously one of the smarter ones spoke up,he had goggles covering his eyes and a military officer cap covering his head of hair
"That's..not a bad idea Cain..not a bad idea at all..okay i want people to go to the Slaves' Quarters when they're all asleep,take the men and bring them at the courtyard at night,any who dont wanna enter will be put back into Labor."
Tommy walked by as Cain noticed him and got up,walking over to him
"Hey Tommy,how's your mom doing?"
"She's seen better days Cain..my old lady's got Pneumonia and we cant do anything about it in a goddamn hospital!..Command said that we should only use that on Wraiths..not the weak."
"Well Command's always right..maybe you should just give her some mercy man."
"Kill my mom? Are you nuts? Crazy coot."
"I can do it..shes a good woman Tommy,i'll make it as painless as possible,bullet to the skull,it's obvious she ain't gonna live..shes just coughing her final days out.."
"If there's really a god up there..I want her to meet him,I'll read her final shit..or whatever and i'll end her suffering,she deserves it Tommy."
"That's real sentimental of you Cain..okay run it by her..if she says yes..you got my blessing to do it..she says no..don't you even dare pull that trigger."
"Okay Tom..i got it man,don't worry."
Cain walked up to a room a bit far off and entered as Tommy just sat down on a crate and sighed
He waited a few minutes..before hearing a singular gunshot come out of the room not too far from him,he flinched at the gunshot and sighed
"..Hold yourself together Tommy..only the strong survive this place.."
