"Oh no ,it's way too big"
"It's gonna smash …"
Crack!
Shards of glass splattered everywhere as a big mysterious creature broke out from a glass chamber it had been kept in.
It had been continuously tested by scientists for a long period of time,and it felt he had enough.
The abominable creature went on a terrible rampage ripping each of its former captors(the scientists) continuously without mercy.
The Creature continued until there was only one more scientist alive.
"Please I'm sorry forgive me for everything,I'll never test on anything again,please just let me go."
The creature kept on moving slowly towards the scientist as he kept on begging.
The scientist tried crawling away as his leg was broken but his attempts were futile.
Slash!
With only one attack,the scientist was be-headed.

Freedom;it is something that most people taken advantage of.Most People fail to see the value in being free,but once the luxury of freedom is stripped away,People are sure to kill to gain it back.
Swoosh!
Bang!
Those sounds echoed through the room as officers relentlessly flogged prisoners.
A 24 year old man of the name;Matthew Shade was one of the prisoners being felt with.
Matthew had dark hair and beedy black eyes.Matthew was within a white room,sitting on a chair,whilst being tied to it.
His head was on the chairs top back with his leg curving round the seat whilst facing the opposite direction one would normally seat in.
The white room was relatively small and was cubicle in shape.Matthew's back was facing the officer,allowing the officer to be able to freely strike him without any problems.
Matthew did not appear to be resisting the flogging,instead he seemed more or less in acceptance to it,like as if he knew resisting was futile.
Bang!
The officer flogged Matthew mercilessly,he had a sadistic expression on his face while he did it.The officer clearly was enjoying his vicious act,it was pleasuring to him.
The officer was about to continue striking Matthew's back but he got interrupted by the sound of a loud siren.
The siren rang an alarming sound on repeat three times before the commencement of an announcement from a loud speaker hung on the top corner of the walls in the white room.
"Ten minutes of discipline is over,officers are expected to release their assigned prisoners and sent towards the cafeteria for their afternoon lunch"
It could be noticed that the officer was irritated at the announcement,he wore a slight frown on his countenance.
"Alright if that's what the warden wants"
The officer then begins to untie Matthew;who had both his eyes closed.
Matthew was shirtless so as to ensure that the whip made perfect connection with him.
As soon as he was completely untied,Mathew opened his eyes and got up from his chair.
Matthew arose from his seat and got on his two feet like as if he had not just been recently beaten.
The officer was bewildered though he was not as shocked as he should be. The reason for that was because this was becoming a common sight for him.
Every day for the past one year,Matthew would always seeemingly endure the flogging, like it was nothing.
The officer hissed at Matthew before walking away,out of the room.
"One I'll break you" murmured the officer.
Matthew slowly bent down to grab his shirt which was thrown to the floor.
His shirt was just the top of cliché orange jumpsuit that prisoners normally wore.
He wore the shirt and began his journey to the cafeteria.
As Matthew got to the cafeteria,he walked in with a dish in his hand prepared to be served.
The cook served him a plate of chicken à la king,though it clearly was not cooked as good as it could be.
Matthew as he got his dish began to trek down the cafeteria but as he got close to any table,the inmates on the table were evidently trying to prevent him from sitting with them.
Obviously Matthew noticed this,prompting him to rhetorically ask;
"Well,what was I expecting?"
He eventually decided to seat in a lonely corner,then again even if he was accepted by the other inmates,he'd have still opted to be alone,as he was used to it.
Ever since he was little,he had found that when he was alone,he'd be at his most optimum level of performance.
Though he was not aware whether or not this was due to his own sense of judgement,or if it was because:
He was once a hitman.
Matthew was about to take a bite of his dish until,
Bang!
He was interrupted by a loud sound.It was only when looked up that he noticed that it was just the sound of someone placing their dish on the table he sat on.
He was already shocked that someone would actually do this,but he became even more shocked when he noticed that it was a lady.
"Hi,my name is Lina,It's really nice to meet you,I was recently acquitted"
Matthew was shocked,it didn't matter if she was only just recently acquitted,she should be afraid of him.
"I'm sorry,are you aware of who I am?" asked Matthew curiously.
"What do you mean?"
"I mean have you seen my face once?"
"Of course I have…right now."
"I meant before this you idiot" Matthew replied with sn irritated tone,wondering whether she was actually that stupid.
"I know I'm aware of what you meant,no need to be so harsh,but to answer your question,I am completely aware of who you are….Matthew Urbanshade,The demon in the Shadows."

Blackwood Penitentiary,it was a prison built to be completely inescapable,it was built to keep the worlds most dangerous criminals.
Sadistic Humans who deserved to die for their crimes were sent to this prison instead.
It was located over 200 kilometers from any civilian life,and over 20 kilometers deep inside an ocean.
The prison also had numerous guards taking shifts to ensure order within the prison.
Blackwood Penitentiary was also a mixed gender prisoner,though male and females were separated into different quarters,they were still occasionally able to socialise with each other during certain periods such as;
Any of the eating periods in the cafeteria,Exercise drills and when performing any of the chores assigned to inmates.
There were also strict measures to ensure the prohibition of sexual activities,as strict punishments were carried out to punish those who engaged in it.
Most of the punishments were inhumane and basically torture,prisoners who had never experienced them first hand listened to tales from those who had experienced it.These tales were enough to scare them into behaving well.
Sex was not the only thing considered an offence,there was also things like fighting,refusing to partake in certain activities and of course disobeying obeys.
Each one of the aforementioned acts had severe punishments for doing them and the frequent patrol of the guards made it impossible to even think about breaking the rules ,unless you have a death wish.
Not to mention that the officers exaggerated what breaking the rules were,for example ;if one was caught spending two minutes alone with a person of the opposite sex,they would be charged with partaking in sexual activities,even there was video proof on the cameras that they had done no such thing.
In short Blackwood Penitentiary was a jail for the worst criminals from all over the US who had been sent to the death row and Matthew Urbanshade had just landed himself within it.
• —————————————————— •
"So you do know who I am."
"Yep"
"Well then shouldn't you be scared,I could kill you at any point"
"I know you wouldn't,there are many guards here prepared to kill you at any moment."
Matthew after hearing this statement bursts into a quiet laughter and smirks.
"If they wanted to kill me,they wouldn't have bothered putting me into this prison,rather they'd have sentenced me to death."
"W-What do you mean"
With a wide grin on his face,Matthew begins to explain the true intentions of the prison.
"They are only keeping us for one reason,to be used.The only reason we have not been kept in the death row is because though we deserve to killed,they understand that we have extremely useful skills,skills they can use for their own goals,and so they send us to perform missions for them,of course if you decide not to do it ,you'll be killed on the spot"
"Re-really"
"Yes,and considering the world already thinks we're dead,it truly doesn't matter what they do to us,we are dispensable"
"That explains why those men said they won't kill me if I comply" Lina thought inwardly.
Matthew looked at Lina as she began to reason out what he said,though what he came out harshly ,he was only trying to warn her,she seemed too bumbly to be in this prison,so he was attempting to break her spirits,it'd be better for her that way.
Blackwood penitentiary was built to destroy the hopes of its inmates,so Matthew thought that he'd help her get rid of it before the prison does or atleast that was his goal,but he didn't expect the reaction he got from her.
"Yessssss!"
Lina screamed so loud that it gathered the attention of some of the officers in the cafeteria.
The officers looked in the direction of Lina but after noticing that she made an effort to close her mouth after the scream,they shrugged it off as a mistake,and deemed it unnecessary to interfere.
"Why did you scream like that?" asked Matthew
"I'm so sorry,I'm just so excited."
"Excited,what are you excited about?"
"It's just I thought I was gonna spend the rest of my days in this boring cell but in actuality,I'm gonna get to leave and do what I know best…killing"
Lina began to sport a sadistic smirk on her face as she thought of the ways she'd kill,all the new methods she could try.
Matthew could feel the bloodlust that she held within her heart,and honestly he was quite amused,but it wasn't like he'd let her know he was.
"You're crazy" said Matthew bluntly.
"Isn't that why we're here?"
Ringgg!
The siren began to blare once more,and speakers began to play the same voice from earlier but with a much different announcement.
"All inmates are expected to be done with their lunch by now,anyone who isn't should leave whatever is leftover and began their assigned chores."
"Damn!,id barely eaten anything" cursed Matthew,but he wasn't about to disobey the warden so he decided to just fo as he was told.
Matthew got up from his seat preparing to go for his chore when Lina(who also had barely eaten) asked him a question.
"What chore we're you assigned today?"
"Oh I was assigned to …"
Matthew felt a hand on his shoulder which prompted him to stop.The hand belonged to an officer who calmly told him;
"The warden wants to speak with you."
