Roaring Pride

Kenshin watched the spider crawl up his arm with interest, ' I wonder what it's feeling.' The spider continued to crawl up his arm until Kenshin crushed it with his opposite hand.

"Patient 759301, it's time for your medication. Come to the door." Kenshin looked away from the dead spider toward the door and growled, but went to the door nevertheless.

When he reached the door a slot opened and he put his arm through it, a few seconds later he felt the pinch of a needle, then the 'medicine' taking effect. Feeling suddenly drowsy, with his head lolling about, he sat on the ground just as the door opened. A nurse looked into the room to find him already down, "It's time for your real medicine." 'What a ugly expression, I guess that they have something "exciting" for me', thought Kenshin.

A group of nurses came in with a stretcher and, with little effort, lifted him onto it. When they exited the room Kenshin couldn't help but feel like a spider waiting to be crushed, when he heard his cell door close with a bang, he knew he was doomed.
