Main And Alternate

'What should I do? Do you need me to kill someone or beat someone to death? Tell me, cause I'm all ears when it comes to this kind of thing.'

(Gosh, is that what you always think of? Somehow I regret that I even asked you for help. Do you want to just watch and let me handle everything, or you want to help me with this thing?)

'You really have that temper of yours, you know, but that's one of the best traits you have, you annoying bastard.'

(Oho, I think you're forgetting your place. Shall I just kick you out, you ungrateful alt)

'All hail King Xavier. What is your order master?'

(We need to help this woman)

'Why would we help her? She looks like someone who can't be trusted.'

(I can't even trust you with my body, you dared call someone like that)

'Well, this is your body, and I'm just your alternate, but did you really think I dont have the will to kick you out from being the main personality?'

(Try me)

'Oho, scary punk. So what's the plan with this woman.'

(Come up with a plan to help her. Did you hear her story? Because if you heard, then there's no need to tell you what to do)

'You come up with the plan, remember? I'm all brawns and no brains.'

My alternate gave the control back to me to devise a plan myself. Well, it wouldn't be called perfect if my alt was the one to create. So it's back to the classic Xavier. The woman is still crying from the stories she started to share with me.

And therefore, I comforted her and offered to help her. She immediately wiped her tears and slowly smiled at me. After giving my assistance, I left the storage room and went back to my cell to think of a plan that would help her entirely.

If I would confront that big of a gang filled with various kinds of inmates, then I need an army of my own. However, from the looks of it, nobody would be willing to rebel against the former biggest boss that this jail has ever seen.

So this plan wouldn't work, but I'm pretty sure that there would be at least a thing or two that would be a perfect idea that will fit the problem. Although I need to observe that big boss more to distinguish what would be the scheme to use.

The day ended with me not having a proper sleep just because of that woman who sought help from me. And then I wondered, why did I even accept her request? Wouldnt that be making my stay here a lot worse than what it is now?

Helping that woman will probably anger the big boss, but why did I answer her request without even thinking about it. Maybe what my alt stated about me was true because of my kindness. There might be a lot of consequences to face.

I am no superhero, plus I dont have powers, so how do I expect myself to help with her problems? Do I have a deathwish? I still have almost six years of imprisonment, and who knows what will happen if I choose to resist his orders.

Although, I still dont know what he looks like. And pretty much just assumptions, whatever may lie on what choice I would make, I'll probably get away with it. While being anxious about why I decided to help the woman. There I suddenly remembered a phrase in her story that made me decide without thinking about it twice.

"My family kicked me out."

It was then that I felt the urge, that unknown feeling that I never experienced ever since. Nevermind that, I need to think of a way to help her. Since I have never backed down on my word, if I promised you something, so you can be assured that I won't let you down.

You should learn how to be true to your words because there is nothing much important than having good manners and the right conduct. That is the value that I taught myself.

"All Inmates, please proceed to your cell immediately," a sudden announcement to the whole building.

And when I looked at the clock, I was surprised to see that it is already evening. It took me a whole day, but I still dont know what plan I could use to help that woman with her problem. However, there is something that doesn't add up with that woman.

How could she possibly know about the conflict that happened at the east wing? And how did she even knew that I was the subject of that conflict? When there was nobody who saw what happened that day? Come to think of it, why did the others this afternoon act close with me?

Is this just a weird coincidence, or someone actually saw what happened in that restroom? Whatever I need to sleep if I want to think of an effective plan. Plus, it's my weekly shift tomorrow, and hopefully, they could assign me to the cafeteria.

Time here really does flow slowly, dont you think? That feeling that you feel older while it has only been a few days since I was brought here. Let's stop thinking about anything and just rest for the day. Tomorrow will be the perfect chance to observe everyone who can be the big boss of the prison.

Because knowing what his personality is, it would make creating a plan easier.

After sleeping for the rest of the night, it is already seven o'clock in the morning. And that is the time when every person on shift would gather to be given their task for the day. You can call this as good points, according to what I have heard from the other inmates.

Some people were released early because of their good points. Not only were they released, but they were also pardoned for their sins. Being pardoned means that your whole record will be erased back to its clean state. That is one of the main reasons why I take more than one task for weekly purposes.

To gather some points, so I can leave here earlier than my term. However, it is also easy for them to take your points. So you need to be extra careful not to cause any commotions. Even just a simple fistfight would decrease it by tenfold. And that is the reason why I was against violence.

Not because I was scared, but because I want to leave this hell quickly. Although I really am serious about the non-violence thing. I saw what I could be capable of, and it scares me to the point that I'm scared of my very own body.

My alternate personality is somehow sweet but a brawler. While I'm the personality with a warm heart but a very naive mindset. Enough with this, I was assigned to the cafeteria. So it's time to work hard for the points.

The woman who approached me yesterday kept on bothering me about the thing we talked about the other day. However, I dont give her much notice since that will ruin the plan that I have in mind. So after my shift in the cafeteria, I brought her back to the empty storage room where we had a conversation last time.

"Stop approaching me for the time being. I still need to think of a plan on how to help you. If we fail, not only will you suffer, but the one who will suffer the most would be me. So stop bothering me instead, also think of something that will help you with your problems," I stated.

"I just agreed to help you, but I never mentioned that I'll do it alone. It's your turn for the end of the bargain. Tell me all the names of the men who bothered you in here. That might be the answer to how I can help you with that problem of yours," I added to my response.

"Please, you need to hurry up. One of them already threatened to torture me because I tried to resist the big boss. Because it might not be that long till I die, and if you cant help me, then I rather die than let them do what they want with me," the woman responded to my response.

(Dont you have any idea that you can share with me? Im starting to lose some brain cells in here just thinking of the perfect plan to help this woman)

'Well, there is something that we could do. However, you need to take the risk on this one. And also, you really need to loosen up because this plan that I could think of will be a very violent one. So are you up for it or Nah?'

There would be a higher risk on the solution that my alternate thought of, but if it would be effective. Then maybe there are times that violence can solve problems.

(Yeah, let's do it. If it helps this woman to stop suffering, then it's a small price to pay)
