chapter 3:chains and trial by fire part 1
Jason's pov and the next day:
i woke up from my cold slumber and sat up,//two days from now is judgement day. it will take a day to arrive at my trial. So that means i leave tomorrow... Better make the best of this already bad day// i thought as I heard the door swing open. the softer light hitting my eyes that had adapted to my cell. I could tell one of them was nervous, someone who basically killed an angel isn't exactly something you would want to deal with.
Guard's pov:
"Half breed get up, its your day off since you have to leave tomorrow!" I demanded drawing Jason's focus,//good. At least now I know you're awake.// i thought while i walked over to the hybrid to drag him out of bed as usual only for him to get up on his own
"I can get up on my own" he said as passed me,"so where's the one who holds my collar?" He asked,// this is not like him at all, for the past days we had to drag him out, whatever idea he was cooking up but now its like he's someone completely different. He must've came up with something and this just the start of his plan// i thought as i motioned for the other guards to attach his restraints, or what he calls his 'collar'.
Jason's pov:
The collar was cold as usual but after practically weeks in this dump of a holding cell it was better than nothing but now its time to go and i started walking out of my cell to get some breakfast.
*a moment later in the mess hall*
The moment i entered the mess hall, all eyes were on me, the so called slayer of the queen and now public enemy number 1. Going from once a respected knight of pure order to absolute scum of the earth, it's like most of them only cared about me because of my station and power. but anyways I had more pressing matters to attend to.
//here we go Jason. Someone is bound to start something with me to see if the rumors were true// i thought as i got in line and kept quiet for the time being. Luckily for me, the time being it was quiet, nothing eventful happened. But then I saw a group enter: the warden and her followers,//just keep quiet. Only attack when necessary but i can even cast the lower than the lowest level magic without getting electrocuted for five minutes// i thought as i attempted to slip under the radar, choosing not to take the fight.
It worked until one of the female inmates recognized me,"dragoon!" She said blowing my cover,//well god damn it!// i thought as I turned my focus,my venom primed ready to strike my former ally as she walked up to me while my already down hair only got longer from what little remained of what power I had left, but for her... this would be worth it if not for the fact she started talking as if we were still friends.
"I see you're here and still need a hair cut" she said while I restrained myself from acting on more "negative" emotions,"so instead of being put in hell with your other friends your being sentenced too..." I said dispassionately,"i actually thought one of your friends would be sent here." She said teasingly while i moved up in the line,"maybe you're here because someone wants to meet you?" She asked trying to prod for information,"no" i responded. "Then why and how did you get yourself in this purgatory?" She asked,"i chose to enter this destiny for my own reasons" I said while i was next in line,"this conversation is over" i said while i decided to pick my options of food:
1. Fruits
2. Milk
3. Toast
And
4. Oatmeal
//wished I had rations but anything is better than angel liver// i thought as i picked oatmeal, toast and some milk for my tray. My thoughts then went to the days where me and my friends met before the start of school... what I wished that I was strong like my brother, then I wouldn't even be here.
Around the same time,at the school of Lang jin and Keith's pov:
I got off the bus and walked to the school,"wonder what's going to happen now?" I said to myself as Caleb and Donavan were waiting near the entrance,"hey" they both said as the three of us entered the cafeteria to get breakfast
*a moment later*and no one's pov:
"Do you ever just miss the feelings of the good old days?" Jason and Keith said at the same time, both imagining them together leading to them smiling softly.
what had been two friends, had
