Sky and Deadlox stood side-by-side, staring bleakly at the prison before them. It was an ugly building, made from cracked smooth stone and mossy cobblestone. Everything about it reeked with pain and misery; a dark shadow amidst the colourful metropolis of Minecraftia. Sky turned to Deadlox. "Ok, so you know the plan, right?" Ty nodded shakily. "What about Plan B?" Sky grimaced. "Let's just hope Ian can do this without his help." Ty looked up at Sky nervously. "A-and if he can't?..." Sky pursed his lips. "Well...Plan B then." Deadlox frowned. "Plan B means we're screwed." Sky shook his head. "No, Plan B mean that Plan A hasn't worked!" Ty stared at him; Sky relented. "So, yeah, if Plan A fails, we are screwed." Ty shifted his sword in his scabbard and squared his shoulders. "Let's make sure that Plan A works then!" And with that the two friends began to scale the prison wall; venturing into the dangerous unknown...

Meanwhile...

SSundee's POV

I sat up and stared at the girl curled up on the metal bedspread; her wolf tail twitching in her sleep. I stood up noiselessly and padded over to the cell bars. It was today. I could feel it. FireSpark had told me that everyday they would throw in the newspaper to keep us posted on the 'outside world.' If they didn't deliver it, it was because there was no point you knowing anymore. In short, today was the day of our executions. I turned as FireSpark's wolf ears swivelled round in my direction and she opened one eyelid a crack. "Wazzgoinon?" I grimaced. "It's today." In an instant she was awake. She sat bolt upright and stared at me fearfully. "A-are you sure they haven't delivered the newspaper?! They might be late! They've been late before-" I shushed her. "I'm sure." FireSpark's eyes filled with tears as I sat down next to her on the bed. She rested her head on my shoulder and sobbed. "I-I don't want t-to die..." After a moments hesitation, I wrapped my arms around her and let her nuzzle into my chest for comfort. "I won't let us die. I promise." She looked up at me, anxiety and panic clearly etched into her tearstained features. "B-but, that's suicide!" I stared back at her sadly. Her eyes widened as she realised what I was planning. "Y-your not going to-" "I don't have a choice. It's the only way." She stared at the ground for a minute, then her amber eyes hardened in determination. "Well, I'm not going down without a fight either." "I'm hoping there won't be a fight." She stared at me, incredulous. "You're not going to try and reason with those monsters are you?!" I smiled wryly. "Aren't I supposed to be the monster?" "No-", she said firmly "-he's the monster, not you SSundee." My heart ached as I realised that Sky had said exactly the same thing to me as he lay in a pool of his own blood. I shook my head frantically, hoping the movement would banish the disturbing memory.

FireSpark looked at me in a mixture of panic and concern. "Is he-" "No." She nodded and both of us fell silent, each left to ponder on eachothers' thoughts alone. I was nervous to say the least about what I was planning to do. If negotiation didn't work, I'd have to trust the guards to clear out a 10 mile radius before the other guy made a bloody mess of everything. I glanced sideways at FireSpark. She was studying her claws in feigned interest. It was clear she was trying to steal glances at me. I caught her doing it and she blushed fiercly. Suddenly a bizarre thought struck me. ~What if she likes me?!~ I sighed. She wouldn't like me...I'm a monster after all. "What?" I stared at her, wide-eyed. "D-did I say that out-loud?!" She pursed her lips and gave me a weird look. I tried to pass off my obvious embarrassment with a casual grin. She rolled her eyes and smiled back at me. I felt something stir inside of me...and it wasn't Derp. I blinked in confusion and she averted her eyes, staring at the floor. I was suddenly seized with an impulse to do something drastic. If I really was to die today, I might as well make the most of the precious few hours I had left. I took her hand and she looked up at me, a light blush creeping across her tearstained cheeks. I swallowed my fear and forced myself to move closer. To my surprise she gave me a wry smile and leant in too. Our lips were a hair's breadth away when a harsh clang of metal against metal reverberated around our tiny cell. We leapt back away from each other and the moment shattered abruptly. My head whipped round and I glared at the guard standing by the door. He smirked and twirled the keys round in his fingers, taunting me. "Ready or not?..." FireSpark hung her head as the door swung open on rusty hinges. The guard sauntered in, narrowing his eyes in barely concealed glee as he snapped two pairs of handcuffs on our hands and began to drag us out of the cell. We shuffled through iron corridors and past cobblestone cells filled with the cries of the damned. FireSpark trembled in fear as I brushed my shoulder against her in a weak gesture of comfort. "It's gonna be ok..." She blinked gratefully at me as we neared the exit. We squinted and shielded our eyes as the bright sunshine blinded us. The jeers and shouts of the spectators deafened me as I stepped out into the execution arena. Above us, the view of the crystal blue sky was marred by the metal mesh stretched tight across it; any hope of escaping via the air evaporated instantly. I glanced fearfully at FireSpark. Her pupils had dilated in fear and her fists were clenched, perhaps as an act of defiance, or as a way to keep her screams of anger in. My eyes widened. Why was I thinking these things?!
