“That repetitive scrape of plastic against concrete. Over and over again, a solitary fingernail across an infinite blackboard. It has been this way for well over two hours now, but the man who is creating the sound seems as devoted as ever, and shows no sign of abating. Ben Bracken lies in his bunk, completely swallowed by the infernal sound, but doesn’t cover his ears. He listens to the sound, it’s repetition, and tries to find comfort in it’s routine. He can’t at all, because he knows what it ...is for. He rolls onto his side, the small bed creaking as he shifts, and he looks to the floor. A man is crouched by the corner of the small cell, reaching behind the toilet bowl to hide his actions. Ben knows what he is doing - using the concrete walls of the cell to sharpen the handle of a toothbrush into an ugly point. The main hides the scrape marks behind the toilet in an attempt to cover his tracks - so that when this hasty shank is found on the floor by someone bleeding to death, it will not so easily lead back to this very cell.MoreLessRead More Read Less
