My Property

There was total silence in the room after General Freelyn asked that question.

Luis knew that there was a chance that the machine could work on him but he wasn't just going to give himself in because of that as he already knew everything general Freelyn had in mind, whether he gave in or not he was still going to receive the same punishment.

"Ok, I see the way it is now." General Freelyn said and then turned his gaze to the student in front of him. "Why don't you be the first to go."

The boy stepped forward from his mates with his legs trembling.

The way the machine worked was that there was a space provided in the shape of a stretched-out hand, all he had to do was place all his fingers there and answer the questions that were going to get thrown at him.

"Place your hands there." General Freelyn said, pointing at the spot.

The boy stretched his hands to put it there but before he could do that a voice could be heard coming from the entrance.
