'Freeee'

<Female Section of the Aquarium prison>

Smash!

"Where!?

Tell me bitch!?"

"I.. d

I dunno, dey wouldn't give away dey location to regular members ,"

Smash!

"You better not be lying to me!" A guard relentlessly pummels a female inmate,

One of if not the only human prison guard,

Who knows for what reason they are here for?

...…..

"I'm going to the male block and speak with your friends there, then." The violent guard huffs away,

"There has to be somebody who will talk."

.....

I don't feel pain anymore♪

Guess what baby?♪

...

****

The second ring in its entirety is an ocean, ninety percent of it is water, the other ten being the islands of its human inhabitants,

Many of the islands on this ring are artificially made or heavily industrialized,

The sight of natural trees, bushes , flowers, any plant in general, is extremely rare due to rapid technological advancements, nature was forced to pay the price…

There are a few islands that consists of only plant life, and are given the label of maximum importance by the UCA government.

(Eden, an island that I was told, I helped in robbing, was one of those nature preserve islands)

Almost all island countries of the second ring are allied together to form the United Countries Alliance, or U.C.A for short, with the exception being the Caribbean line, a mini sea that consists of mostly isles and private islands, the government barely has any influence there,

The Caribbean is somewhat detached from the rest of the ring, the mini sea is surrounded by whirlpools and rocks which makes regular travel impossible without prior had knowledge of the area.—

—Beeep!♪

"Prisoner Kage, your two weeks of solitary confinement is over,

Please try your best to act civilized within the parameters given to you,"

(Not even two months yet and I've spent half of my time in a box)

Closing the book, I smuggled in with me, and the finger-ring light, I 'borrowed' from Keychain,

I brush past the guard stepping back into 'freedom',

After being brutalized from that guard I was sent to the infirmary for one week for my broken nose and jaw,

(I feel like they also cracked my skull)

After that I was sent straight to solitary….

Nothing hurts me anymore♪

Guess what baby?♪

...….

"Fuck, my arm!" stepping into the prison gym I hear a man complaining

"I'm telling you, if I find out who that guard is, I'm getting their family, friends whoever, they love, they definitely gone pay!"

"I heard they got fired for be too violent though,"

"That doesn't matter, I ended up telling bro.. about boss…."

"You mean—

What are you looking at!?" they notice my presence,

I shake my head at them quickly walking on,

(Who was that human guard?

Have they left already?)

"Aye Kage you finally freee!" Keychain greets,

"Well not free, but out of solitary,

You know what I mean dawg…"

"You left me back there, Keychain,"

"Hey man, we both couldn't go down like that, see how you got beat up, couldn't be me."

"…..

Any idea who they were?" I ask ignoring his previous statement

"No clue mane, but I heard they've being running a tear through both the male and female sections,"

"Why?"

"Trying to get info."

"On?"

"Can we talk about something else dawg?" Keychain spies some guards watching us,

"hhhh" I sigh

"I can't do this."

"What exercise?

I mean like you have to start off easy, the key is—"

"No, I mean prison, I hate this, I want get out,"

"You on life bro, you'll get used to it…."

"I should let you get beat up one these days Keychain,"

"Aye man I'm just speaking facts…"

...….

I'm so complete in the mode♪

Guess what baby?

...….

[What is Tielium?]

Not much is known about the makeup of this material, however there is a version available to the public for usage.

All weapons concerning Tielium is kept by the UCA government,

Though there has been recent leaks that sell for high prices, 'if you know where to look'.

...…

[Who is Satan?]

Satan is the name of the rumored boss of an international crime syndicate.

(Hmmmm)

My eyes peel, staring curiously into the bright library computer screen.

Prisoner as only allowed thirty minutes a day of usage…

[Is the aquarium prison really inescapable?] I type into the search bar,

(I know all my searches are probably being monitored, but I don't care)

The aquarium is the ring's most secure prison constructed in the Bathyal zone of the ocean, it is physically impossible for anyone without the help of a shuttle to leave or go to the jail.

"hhhh, I expected this much"

[What is the Nor—

"Inmate Kage, it appears your time here has been canceled," a guard interrupts me,

"Already?

I just sat down?"

(I can't catch a break here!)

"No, I mean your time as a prisoner, it appears you are going to be released,"

"….?

What? How?"

"Your release has been filed for,"

And you know damn well♪

He lift me up every time that I fell♪

"By who?"

(Have I fallen asleep?

Is this a hallucination?)

"You have received a pardon from the chairman of the UCA government,"

"The chairman?

For what?

Why would we he let me free?"

(Is this Apollo's doing?

And if not, Who? How? Why?)

"I am afraid that is not within our parameters to know, you will have to ask him yourself,

The chairman has requested that you meet him immediately after being released.

With that being said,

Former inmate Kage you are free to go,"

And set me freeee!♪
