"Right ladies and gentlemen, you are the most vilest and disgusting people I have ever met..." Blah, blah, blah, I had heard it all before. Well might as well tell you where we are, we are in Tragolot Prison. Tragolot Prison is where we have to do manual labour to keep us alive, they were constantly bringing in new prisoner's as all the others died, whether lack of food or just the pain you get as punishment when you don't work fast enough or refuse to do something. The new prisoners were getting their first talk. I'd heard it a thousand times about rotting hell, you will be begging for death by the end and so on. It was just the same things to scare the new kids and when they found out it was all true they will be begging for death.

Then something happened that's never happened before, we heard trumpets, everyone was edging forward to see what was happening but the guards were stopping them. I didn't edge forward I stayed in the shadows, my haven. Sebastian, Nathaniel and Danielle were all staying back with me. We don't like people giving us attention, much better to blend into the background.

A bunch of guards where coming forward, like ten to the thousand and there was a gate already between us and whoever it was that was important enough that they need that many guards."His Royal Highness King Edward!" The messenger said and then banged that stupid wooden stick. Wow his royal highness this was a first, what on earth did he need to come here for. Everyone started to murmur, a man in his 50's walked forward he had chocolate brown hair with brown eyes that had a sparkle to them and his face was full of laughter lines. He wore a black cloak that kept hidden most of his jewel in crusted sword hidden except when he moved his body slightly to the left. His wore a red tunic that seemed to have padding on it, well what did you expect most of the people were in here because he sentenced us here.

His Royal Highness then started to whisper in the lead guards ear, the guard's face started to become incredibly pale. "Sir are you sure, we do have some, 4 to be precise but .." The guard was then cut off by the king. "I know what I'm doing!" He said in a commanding tone. "Very well, Shadow, Danielle, Nathaniel and Sebastian please may you come here." There was a gasp from the other prisoner who'd been here long enough to even know we existed, he was talking about us, the guard was sweating and looked like he was about to faint, everyone turned round to look at us, all the could see were the shadows until Nathaniel stepped forward, he always was the cocky one.
He has brown hair that has tinges of red in it, it came across his face and was cut choppy, he has these brown eyes that have a rim of red round the outside, he wore a simple prisoners outfit the same as everyone else but you could his ripped muscles shown underneath, he had tanned skin and wore a ring on his right hand index finger, the same as all of us. You could just see his tattoos peeking out from the v of his all in one black uniform. Next came Sebastian, he was a bit more wary than Nathaniel as he was the quiet one of the too, he had blonde hair that was cut short enough so no one could get a grip on him I in battle. and green eyes, his skin was a light brown, he had a lean body as he was more of a bookworm than a fitness fanatic. He too had a ring. After Sebastian came Danielle,she was one of the most beautiful creatures that you would ever see, her hair a white colour that when she moved had tinges of blue, her face is a pale white, her eyes shined a bright blue.

They all stood next to each other in front of the king, I wouldn't come out, I was always over weary but when you'd been through what I'd been through then you would be. "I thought you said there was four?" The king said glaring at the guard. "Yes
