"Really?" Jack asked. Did Madison mean she knew her from this jail, or from somewhere else?
"Yeah, she's in my cell block. Just got here a few days ago. She's actually talked to me a few times, and she seemed...different. She has this presence, like she owns the place, but also isn't looking down on anyone. It was weird, but I felt like I could actually relax when we were talking, like nothing bad would happen while she was near."
As Madison was talking, Jack looked over at the woman. The guard had just left and as he watched; he saw the man make some kind of jerking motion, like he'd just slapped her hands or something. The woman flinched, said something, then slumped over like she'd just passed out.
Holy shit! He thought. What was that? He wasn't sure, but it seemed like the woman looked shocked or angry or scared just before she slumped over. Was she dead, or just unconscious? Did the man just slap her hands, or did he jab her with something like a syringe?
