I sat back down on my metal, cot, dunk bed, as Jen and his second shadow stepped into the room. His little shadow copping his every move, every step, evert arm crossed, it was truly annoying, as if the young boy didn't know how to function on his own with out a steady figure to guide him. Here in the bunk that type of behavior was expected, younger inmates to latched on to a older brotherly, or sister like figure for guidance, reassurance, and comfort, a few of the many things beaten out of inmates at younge ages by the wretched adults . Mast soon left, feeling intimidated by the tall statue and its shadow, she ran to get to the messhall as time ticked by slowly but quickly at the same time, like a bomb waiting to go off. Jen moved to watch her pass then moved into the small cell, and sat across from me on Mast's bunk. His shadow made a move to sit besides the older boy, but a raised hand halted his little steps.
"Reggie, go to the Mess Hall cover for me" Jen paused his gaze flickering over to me.
" us" Jen ordered to his shadow with a laid back tone must of us here dont have the luxury for. Consistent fear and terror beat that out of our emotional state a very long time ago. As Reggie scurried off to obey and please the older boys orders to clearly get him away, jen turned his attention back to me and leaned forward to show he ment business. Jen held a grim expression, and waited until the hurried steps of Reggie left to no even leave behind a echo.
"Your screwed Nicky"
"you dont think i know that jen?"
"Look Nickles we dont have a lot of time to talk and i dont want to get thrown into the shoe so just hear me out here?" he said quickly not even pausing to take a breath and wait for my replie as he went on.
"We both know what this is about. That little stunt Hudge pulled with the Orange but also you knocking out a guard" he paused took a breath and went on.
"I know the rumors say your next, and i got a bud of mine tell me they saw you take a club from the fight?" he then paused and ran a hand over his face. His dark eyes narrowing as he watches me.
"thats not why im on the list, becuase of my actions in here Jen, Gabreil set me up"
"your telling me she snitched you out?"
"Yes."
"Do you have proof?"
" she confessed to em' during breakfest"
"know your really screwed Nickles" he whisled, shaking his head.
" i hid the club for my group, my friends in case gabby tries anything else" i answered. He leaned forward even more, his dark asain heritage eyes narrowing to slits. No longer holding the laid back luxury he crafted.
"ya the group your leaving," he rolled his eyes.
" listen here-!"
"Yes yes i know but if your tacken what will happen to your group of loyal followers huh?" he asked locking eyes with me.
"Im not the leader" i stated.
"Sure your not, Gabby is a snitch Nickles no one is going to trust her again. You passed on your title but you didnt loose the claim of leadership completly" he counter claimed. Jen was the youngest group leader out of all of us, but he held a firm authority like power in his voice and a gleam to his dark eyes demanding your attention.
"I left orders to the next apppinted leader, so something like this never happen. The one I choice would claim group leadership out from under Gabriel's nose, Jen" i answered calmly. two years ago i took Bloom under my wing and taught her every crook and nanny of the compound. I taught her ever do and dont, how to deal woth certin issues, how what certin things forshadow like the flicking monitors. How to avoid guards, adults, and the small blind spots of the cameras. All becuase two years ago the leader before Gabreil had dissapeared, and she quickly stepped up without hestaintion. Whispers and rumors clung to the air in spoke in almost every ear.
