Prison, Chicago 10am.

Another day in this shithole, trial was drawing closer but in the meantime I had to make the best of this situation. Weeks had past by and no one stepped on my toes, could have been that a lot of them knew who I was... but I doubt it and even if they did who cares these guys were animals.

10:05am I hear the clack of the guards shoes as he makes his way through the hall and yells out "OK MAGGOTS LINE UP OUTSIDE YOUR CAGES! INSPECTION TIME.

As my cell door opens I walk out into the hall and wait until I can go back in. While waiting I see a man staring at me 4 cells down...6 feet 340 pounds. We look eyes on each other. The man in the cell next to me replies "I would watch it... that's Joe Corvallis he's the big guy around here!.

"Is that right?". With my inspection done I walk back into my cell shrugging off the stare down.

530pm, dinner.

While in the cafeteria I was going through the line like always minding my business. After getting my food I walked towards my table. Half way there the big man Joe stuck his foot out and tripped me sending me and my dinner to the floor. As he burst out laughing I calmly get to my feet with my dinner tray and slowly turn towards him giving him a final stare before belting him across the face with the tray. He shakes off the first blow and stands up. I give him a swift kick to the knee hearing a huge pop he falls to the ground. When he does I deliver the second blow to the back of his head before rolling him over to his back. At this point everyone is formed in a circle around us.

"How's it feel to be down there big man?".

I stand over him and repeatedly slam him in the face with the tray making his face a bloody mess. The guards finally grab me and get things back in order. As they take me out of the cafeteria I observe the room and look at the inmates faces and I could tell there were a lot of stares out of respect as I had just beat down "the big guy". I wasn't sure how things worked for inmates who were here for life but I believe it made me the one people feared. I was more then ok with that as I did not plan to be in much longer but the message was out on who the new big guy was. 

(OOC. I'm not acting as Tom in this scene)

Jackie walked alongside the warden to the cell where KL had been kept in solitary confinement. It had taken work but Jackie had paid good money to settle the score with the bastard who beat his boss Joe Corvallis.

As the warden opened the cell KL scurried to the back covering his eyes from the light. Jackie was a punk and acted like it. "Hey bitch'' he laughed looking down at KL. "Heard you think you da 'ard man now'' Tom signalled for the warden to turn on the light and shut the door. Jackie was a coward and enjoyed nothing more than tormenting someone helpless.

"Its hard to walk after a month in solitary aint in boy? That's a real shame'' Jackie went down on one knee and starte to slug Kl leaving him spluttering up blood. Jackie produced a shank and bought it down hard on KLs leg. KL screamed in distress yet no one came. Jackie walked out.

A minute later a guard came in smiling. "What happened here son''. KL looked up in disbelief. "The fucker you just let in here!"

The screw shook his head in fake confusion. "Dunno what you talking about son'' he looked the guards on either side of him. "Take him to the hospital. He talks beat him''

KL broke down in tears.
