"Ow!"

Mayer stumbled over and almost fell as the guard shoved him. He got to his feet only to see the same guard smiling cruelly and hitting him again, this time much harder. "STOP!" Mayer fell this time, scraping his knee on the floor as blood stained the ground around him. He let out a wail of despair. "Get up, you little wimp," screeched the guard, grabbing Mayer by the hair and dragging him to his hooves. "You've got a big day today. Hope you didn't bet on having dinner today!" Mayer gave the guard a puzzled look. He wasn't eating dinner? Why n- oh yeah.

Mayer was a competitor in the arena system, and he had escaped the previous day, only to be caught again. He expected to be punished by having to fight. Mayer sighed thoughtfully, letting out a puff of visable breath. It was cold in the cell where he lived.

"Oh, whoops, forgot to give you your food. Here." The guard dumped a piece of greenish bread on the floor. Mayer took it and bit into it, but quickly spit it out. He put it down and didn't touch it again.
