"You won't receive any special treatment girl, no water canteens are given to slaves." They've pushed too far now, time to put them all in line! He thought, an enraged look on his face, If I don't do this, then it risks blowing my cover. "Men, come and relieve this slave of his tools!" He shouted to his guards, pointing at Dragomir, "And give them to the girl." She worked with Dragomir's tools, or with no tools.
"Also, seeing as you admitted to your crimes, you will be working all day today, excluding meal time, until 11, both of you."
"If either of you challenge me again, especially you," Loki said, looking at Dragomir, "It'll be a blade meeting your stomach, not my boot." He said, threateningly.
He began to walk away, his guards circling around him. He had earned their respect for dealing with the slaves. "Also, it is 10:30, all slaves move to the digging site!"

"Also, it is 10:30, all slaves move to the digging site!", someone outside shouted.
Ten thirty?!, she thought to herself. I've been out for five hours already?! I should get to work... Just then, she remembered the man from earlier; Marigold. She remembered that he somehow managed to get her the day off. She sighed. She wanted to work today. There was little to do here but work. Working while in so much pain would just be a new experience for her; a fresher take on her life now as a slave. Beside that, if she went to work, she would get to at least be with other slaves, other like-minded ones. She stood up and stretched, the hard, uncomfortable bed wreaking havoc on her bones. She snatched up her tools, her shovel and her pick ax, and brought the ax up to rest upon her shoulder. She left the tent her bunk was located in and headed for the digging site. As she walked, she wiped dried blood from her cheek. She maneuvered herself towards Loki, gently bumping into him as she walked by. She didn't even look back after she did. She absently swung the shovel around in her palm, surprisingly dexterous with it. She kept her eyes straight as she walked, headed straight for the dig site. Her bare feet stepped on sharp rocked and gravel, and she barely seemed to notice. To others, it would seem like she was a completely different person from this morning, five hours ago. She seemed to exude fearlessness and confidence. In actuality, she founded the pain from the beating she suffered a welcome change; something else to think about instead of hunger and dehydration and family she hadn't seen in years and friends she'd never see again. Her eyes were as cold and as hard as the stone walls that encased them, that imprisoned them. Her lips curled into the slightest of frowns.

She looked at him and then the pick axe she was handing out towards him. "I don't really know how to work it, so you can have it." She said dropping it on the ground as she picked up the shovel. She took her anger out on the dirt and the shovel while digging. She was fully done taking her rage out when she had just only dug about an inch whole, even though it took her about half an hour. She looks back at him, and then at Loki. A blade to his stomach? Please, he couldn't even punish me more harshly, well, Im not complaining. She thought, leaning on the shovel; as it tipped far to the right as if she was going to fall, but she stayed perfectly balanced.

She didn't really looked at him when she asked this. "Have a family; you said you lived here all of your life." She said, digging. She looked at him while digging and said in a very quiet voice. "Like a mom, dad, childern, wife, sister, brother, friend?" She was a bit curious of him because of how he stood up for her back there and started to get a bit curious for the first time she has been here.

"And there won't be any more of that excessive abuse while I'm on watch. These men I've been stationed with have no discipline to speak of, but I'll be changing that soon." He had already planned out an intense drill for the men on his shift after 3 this afternoon.

"I don't care. I appreciate having the day off, but that'll only make tomorrow worse, and it'll only make the future worse. There's no point to resting today if I have to return to work tomorrow. Besides, I'll get all the rest I need when I die here." she growled. She turned forward again and continued on to the dig site. Her bare feet continued to press down into rocks and dirt below, making the skin on the underside raw and painful. Still, she preferred this physical pain to her usual emotional pain. She had something to focus on instead of it. She climbed down into the pit and immediately retreated into a corner. She faced away from the other slaves and began to dig. She started out a bit slow, but quickly sped up. She had dug down at least a foot within the first ten minutes of working. She felt depressed, but tried to avoid thinking about it. She let out a sigh as sweat beads rolled down her face. She wiped her forehead with her forearm and resumed working. She didn't speak, although she wished someone would talk to her.

"Seems like the days will be passing slowly here." He said to himself. He gave a 'come here' signal to one of his guards, and after he got up the stairs Loki told him, "Spread word to all guards under my watch that we will be having a drill today, immediately after the shift ends, at 3o'clock. There will be no exceptions, no excuses. And no break in between."
The guard grumbled, "They won't like this. At all."
"I didn't ask." He said shortly.
"They will be grumbling among themselves about this. Don't be too surprised."
"Again, I didn't ask." He said, leaning on the siding of the platform, not looking at any one of the slaves in particular. "Now go."

"What do you mean 'before we get out of here'?" she spoke softly, almost a whisper. "Are you planning to escape?" She continued to work as she spoke. She was good at keeping attention away from herself. She sighed and shrugged, ignoring the thought, trying not to get her hopes up.
"Whatever... You're not going to get out... Remember what happened to your friend?" she spoke quietly and softly, but harshly. In truth, she didn't want to have to watch more die. She hung her head slightly, her hair concealing her face as she continued to dig deeper.

Max was travailing on horseback, from a distance he could see the camp saying to himself "This place don't look so bad, i don't see what the punishment is" But as soon as he got through the gates, he saw one girl half bleeding to death, and the treatment the guards gave the slaves, it was horrific, Max threw up, he could see why this is his punishment, he has always lead a nice life. This was going to be something different, seeing a guard he asks where he is supposed to report "Report to the new guy Loki" Another new guy great, maybe he will be nicer than these guys, but unlikely as he was a commander.

"Welcome to the Slave Grounds. I'm Commander Loki, of the first watch. If you're joining my shift, then just so you know, all my men will be assembled immediately after shift ends, right here in front of the platform. These men need some serious reconditioning, I hope you aren't the same." He said, getting straight to the point.
(ehmm, not much to work with sooo... all urz scary)

"As long as you don't abuse your power over these people, yes, slaves are still people, according to the law, then you won't have anything to be afraid of. Just don't fall in with a bad group of guards, okay?"
"Now, do you have your papers? Name, reason for being here, history, etcetera." Damn, I sound just like a guard, Loki thought.
