The warden walked through the hall of cells. Clanging his baton against every single one, he was purposely doing so. Irritating the inmates was the warden's favored pass time. As he got to a certain cell; Cell X666, he pounded loudly on the glass.
"Wake up scumbag, ya ain't getting no rest." He taunted at the one and only cell occupant. A cybernetically enhanced wolf. He was no older than 18, but he had murdered over 700 people before ending up in the cell he now lived in.
"Don't you ever tire of yhe same daily routine Warden? I mean come on bro, abusing your power just so you can put a fake ass smile on your face, pretty boring after awhile." The boy said sitting up onto his elbows to look at the Warden. His mechanical eye shifted and glowed like tiny infernos. He was gauging the Warden with precise judgement.
The Warden on the other hand hit the glass again. "Shut your hole punk, you're not getting out of there for a long time. Which gives me plenty of time to milk my fun from you for years to come." The Warden laughed loudly, but was startled when he felt and thunderous crash against the other side of the glass.
"You better hope that holds true Johnson. Otherwise when I get out, your the first to die," The boy had a bloodthirsty look in his eyes, he licked his lips then said the what he said next with a a hungry tone to his voice, "Then your eldest daughter. But I won't kill her right away. Oh~ no, I'm going to take me sweet time with her. I'll plow her fields till she can't move, then I'll strip away her mind. Piece by piece, and when she's a blabbering dribble of stupid, I'l drain her of her blood and bathe in it." The boy licked his lips as he shook with excitement at the thought. "Then I'll hang her body like a trophy in your living room as I butcher and dissect your other two daughters in front of your wife. And when your wife is begging me to stop as they scream in terror. I will finally end all of their misery by incinerating them. I will revel in every moment as I listen to their last moments." He had a gleeful tone to his voice, the Warden realized, he loved killing. He loved bloodshed and murder of the lowest moral denominator. If he got loose the Warden knew his family would be in danger.
The Warden left without another word. Something felt off about what the boy said. It was as if he would be getting out soon. He went up to the max security guards. "I want your two on cell X666 until further notice. Watch him no matter what." The two guards saluted the Warden and went to their new post.-One Week later-
One night as the Warden was in his office the alarms went off and the intercom the one prisoner that he hoped would never escape was loose. The Warden panicked and started locking down every corridor leading to his office. But too late as the last security door shut the boy walked into his office. His hands splattered with blood and what looked to be chips of bone. "Hello Warden. Like I told you. You're going to die." With that the Warden died he didn't even have time to utter a scream before his throat was torn to shreds.

خيال علميDeep space and cybernetics, seems like an normal mix. Whelp not when you add in blood thirst machines, pirates galore, and a healthy dose of backstabbing romance to boot.
