Rival Approaches

We were all then guided to our cells with each cell housing two prisoners meaning I have a roommate.

"Nice to meet you." The guy inside greets me once we're alone in our cell after the guards left. "I am Jyugo, I am here for larceny and escaping prison a few times. What are you in for?" He asked me as he offered his hand like this was the most normal thing.

"Seth Aphelion I am here for ****, gang ****, stuff like that." I answered him as I shook his hand.

"Ah, you're the guy the Warden was talking about huh?" He seemingly asked me before carrying on. "There are already rumors that you molested some kids so be ready tomorrow or later today for someone to try and kill you." He warns me.

"You don't believe them? The rumors I mean." I asked him noting how oddly unfazed he is to be sharing a room with a rumored child molester.

"Why should I? People like that are usually kept somewhere special, away from most other prisoners. But if you die because of them then I get to have this room all to myself which will be useful when..." Jyugo looks outside the barred doors to see a guard walk by us before turning to me. "I escape for a third time." He whispered.

"Ah, so you intend to escape huh?" I asked to which he nodded. "So you must be the famous "Escape Artist" huh? THough aren't you a bit too young for that?"

"I am 16 so yeah I am. But the famous "Escape Artist" is my teacher, I on the other hand am only the student." He explained to me. "How old are you by the way?"

"I am 27." I answered simply. "16 huh? And you already escaped prison two times? I guess that is why you are with the big boys instead of some Juvy."

Jyugo nodded before I heard a siren blare and a guard unlock our cell door. "Lunch time." The guard informed us before leaving to open more cell doors.

"You better hope you're ready." Jyugo said to me as he left to go get lunch. I began to follow him before I felt a sharp instrument in my back. I turned my eyes to look behind me and I see...

"Hey, Seth..." The man said creepily. "I hear you offed the Police Chief for your family, you brought the heat on gang crime causing me and my brother to get locked up. I should really kill you for that you know?"

It seems before I am challenged to face charges against my supposed child molestation I am about to be charged for my real police killing. "Who are you?" I asked him trying to stay cool.

"Founder of the greatest crime family in New York since the Five Families. But I suppose you don't know, meaning you aren't anything more than some thug sent to kill the PC who somehow survived." The man explained while only trying to drive the shiv deeper into my back. "I won't kill you today, in fact, you may be killed by some other thug, as I don't want to be sent to solitary for your mistake. And I still need to look after my brother, so consider this your lucky day."

It was then he slipped back the shiv into a hidden place on his person before he continued on to the cafeteria. It seems I already have made some grave enemies here in Cell Block 9.

This truly will be fun.
