Chereads / Star Wars: Senator / Chapter 54 - Keeping myself alive

Chapter 54 - Keeping myself alive

As we entered the barracks we found ourselves within the cross gender cells.

"Padme, I assume you do not have a problem with us finding a cell for both of us?" I asked, looking over at Padme.

Her mouth was open and she was shocked, I could even see that she was beyond terrified.

"Y-yes, I'm c-certain that will be a-acceptable." She said and I began chuckling.

"Alright, come on. Let's get us some food." I said as I walked towards the cantina, if it can be called that.

It was a small room inside with a lot of vending machines.

You scanned your prison collar and you got one of the food blocks.

It was a simple block full of protein, tasted shit but it gave us the energy to work.

While we were eating that I led Padme towards the cells.

"Do not look at anyone, don't talk with anyone. If you are pushed or messed with, come to me and don't fight. Unless they attempt to permanently hurt you or rape you." I said as the information hit her. This was serious.

"I am confident they will come and save us, but we do not know when. We can still die here. I'd they grab your ass or chest then just get away, it's not worth dying or being hurt for." I said as we entered the highest cells.

As we got to the end we finally found an empty cell.

There were no clothes or anything signalising anyone lived here.

"We'll each take the top bunk. They're easier to escape from." I said as I jumped onto the top bunk closest to the entrance.

Padme nodded and jumped onto hers, but I could see a slight wetness in the corner of her eyes.

Not shocking, it would be normal to be terrified about these change of events.

I just hope this doesn't change much, sure Anakin won't join Padme on Naboo but I hope Obi-Wan continues his search.

And with that time passed, I spent most of my time laying down looking into the roof.

I also took a quick trip out of the cell and leaning over the railing.

On the ground there were multiple tables and chairs. Around them the gangs were easy to spot.

There was one gang made out of majority Rodians, another had 4 of those Pig-Hutt-Guards, I don't even care to remember their name. But the 4 of them had quite the power.

There were also 3 Trandoshians whom nobody messed with.

A few Zabrak's mixed with a human gang. And a Togruta-Twi'Lek gang, they were mostly peaceful, but they had the largest numbers.

Lastly I could see 2 Wookiee sitting close to the Togruta-Twi'Lek group, those two likely working together.

And lastly there were 5-6 mixed gangs, with humans and many other races.

Although in total there were more humans, however humans did not band together like other races, we humans had races in between each others.

Looking around I realised most of the guys on this level was those not affiliated with the gangs and any groups with any influence.

I guess that is why this place was deserted.

A lot of those up here were women, beautiful men and older people.

My guess is that this is the place where those in the gangs comes to get some pleasure.

Meaning we were on the wrong fucking cell.

"Cell doors close in 15 minutes!" A voice came over the intercom.

"Fuck. Padme get up and gather anything you left." I said as she leaned up, she too had not slept yet.

"Why?" She asked.

"We're moving to another cell." I said as she stood up.

Each cell had 2 bunk beds, meaning I might need to fight 4 guys to get their cell.

Well if my hand to hand training was working I wouldn't have any problems.

"It might be getting rough." I said as she jumped down from the top bed.

I looked at the ladder going to the top bunk, it was metal, iron to be precise.

However the ends had become rusty.

I gathered all my strength into my right foot and kicked it as hard as I could.

It bent slightly first time, I repeated it 10 times until it flew out of it's position.

I then bent the iron-rod back into shape.

There were now 12 minutes left.

"Alright, let's go." I said as Padme followed me and we walked down the stairs.

I hid the rod in my pants as we walked through the entire 5th level, there were 6 in total.

I saw no rooms that looked weak, all of them had a lot of large men in it.

As I got to the end I found the room.

There were 4 individuals inside. 1 Rodian and 2 Human and lastly 1 woman Torgruta, though she looked scared, likely brought inside to pleasure the 3 men tonight.

"Yo, I was wondering if you could help me with something?" I said as I stepped into the Jail cell.

Padme remained outside.

The Rodian stepped up with both of the humans flanking him.

"Oh? What is that?" The Rodian said before looking at Padme.

"Oooh. Quite a beuty there, perhaps we can trade night entertainment?" He said again and I could see the two humans beside him smile maliciously.

"Oh, well I need you to vacate this cell?" I said and they looked at me before beginning to laugh.

"Nah, I don't think so." The Rodian said as I saw their fists tighten in the corner of my eyes.

My hands were in my pocket, I took them out as quick as I could and moved them into the back of my pants.

He threw a punch at me but I had already accomplished what I wanted.

I grabbed the iron rod before smashing it into the right side of his face.

He immediately staggered into the bed on the left side.

I then sent a left hook with the iron rod, sending the human on the right into the bed as well.

The guy on the left send a hook straight at my face but I avoided it before smashing the rod into the neck on his right side, he slumped down on the ground immediately.

"Get the fuck out of my crib!" I shouted at the two remaining guys inside and they ran off immediately.

I grabbed the guy on the ground and threw him out before kicking him in the side.

The skirmish had caught the eyes of many and they were looking at me as I dragged the guy by his feet out of the cell.

Padme looked shocked.

"I suggest you get in Padme, you don't want to see this." I said. But of course she did not follow my suggestion.

I walked to the stairs. They were circular going downwards.

I walked up to it and threw him down.

Don't know how logic worked but he ended up rolling all the way down, falling onto the main area.

People were leaving and they all spotted him, before looking up.

And I leaned over the railing. Showing my face as the one who beat his ass.

I needed to show these fuckers I wasn't messed with.

"Closing in 5 minutes." The voice said and with that everyone got out of their stupor and walked towards the cells.

I turned around to face Padme.

"Was that necessary?" She asked as I walked into the cell, she followed.

"I needed to show them we're not to be messed with." I said as I climbed onto the top bunk.

The Togruta had ran away long ago.

"And why did we move?" Padme asked.

"I noticed that all of the ones on the 6th level were women, old and weak men. Meaning that if we slept there, we were likely to be met by a gang wanting to rape you." I said and with that she got shocked.

After a few seconds she responded.

"T-thank y-you, but how do you know?" She asked and thanking.

"Because you're the most beautiful female here." I said, and I knew she had a large blush on her face without even looking.

"T-thank you." She finally said before climbing into her bed.

"No problem, we're together in this after all." I said as the doors closed shut, temporarily ensuring our safety.

Unless someone had bribed the guards for the key, and if they did I would give them a surprise.

I then felt the iron rod lying under my pillow before dosing off to sleep.

The next morning I was woken by slight steps and speaking.

I opened my left eye to see 3 men walking in.

One of them even had a iron rod, I guess I wasn't the only one who thought about that.

I saw him walk towards me and lift his hands to attack.

I swung my right foot into his face, which he clearly did not except, throwing him onto his ass outside the cell.

I grabbed the iron rod before sliding onto the cell ground.

Once I arrived I smashed my iron rod into the back head of a guy looking at Padme, not expecting me to put up a fight.

As he fell towards the ground I grabbed the back of his head and smashed him into the railing on the lower bunk, he did not move after hitting the ground.

I dodged low as the 3rd guy threw a punch, he then threw a kick forcing me to step back.

The guy with the iron rod then joined the other guy.

Out of the corner of my eye I could see Padme with a terrified look.

The rod guy advanced first, throwing his rod towards my right side.

I blocked it with my forearm, biting through the pain I punched him with my right arm.

The rod was held in a reverse grip and as the 1st guy staggerd back, I spun around before slamming it into the 3rd guys throat.

As he staggered back I kick him, sending him further backwards and actually ended up flipping over the railing.

I was shocked at that but quickly got over it.

Stepping out of the cell I kicked the rod guy on the ground multiple times in his side.

Before kicking him in his face, bloodying him up. Until finally I once again threw another down the stairs.

With that I looked at Padme, who were about to burst into tears.

"It's fine, I doubt anyone will come after this." I said as she relaxed.

After she calmed down we both went out of the cell and furthermore down the stairs.

We then got breakfast at the vending Machine before starting another days work.

Although I hadn't noticed it a lot due to the fighting, I had some annoying and painful blisters at the top of my fingers.

And with that we entered the mines for another 12 hours of gruelling work.

Me and Padme went to the same station as last time, staying together at all times.

We might have made a few enemies with those beat downs.
