CHAPTER 2 – The Fight That Changed the Prison
The warehouse doors slammed shut.
Only two men stood inside.
Victor.
Ethan.
Outside, hundreds of inmates crowded every window, placing bets on how long the newcomer would survive.
Thirty seconds.
One minute.
Five at most.
Victor removed his leather gloves.
"You still have time to beg."
Ethan smiled.
"I've been hearing that my whole life."
Victor charged like a bull.
His first punch shattered a wooden crate.
His second strike would have broken most men's jaws.
But Ethan wasn't there.
He moved with terrifying precision.
Every step was controlled.
Every dodge effortless.
Victor became frustrated.
"Stand still!"
Instead...
Ethan quietly said,
"You're wasting energy."
Victor roared and attacked again.
This time Ethan caught his wrist.
A single movement.
A simple twist.
Victor's massive body crashed into the concrete floor.
The warehouse became silent.
Nobody believed what they had just witnessed.
Victor stood up again.
Angrier than ever.
He grabbed a metal pipe.
Several inmates cheered.
"This is over!"
But Ethan didn't reach for a weapon.
Instead...
He waited.
The pipe swung toward his head.
In one unbelievable motion...
Ethan disarmed Victor.
The pipe hit the ground.
Victor dropped to one knee.
Breathing heavily.
Blood dripping from his forehead.
Everyone expected Ethan to finish him.
Instead...
He stepped backward.
"I don't fight people who can't control their anger."
The words hurt Victor more than any punch.
For the first time in fifteen years...
The prison king had been defeated.
But something even more shocking happened.
One of the oldest guards quietly whispered,
"I knew it..."
Another guard asked,
"Knew what?"
The old guard looked at Ethan.
"He isn't just another prisoner."
"He used to train elite tactical officers before he was framed."
"And if the rumors are true..."
"He never lost a fight."
Victor slowly stood up.
Instead of attacking...
He extended his hand.
"I underestimated you."
The warehouse fell completely silent.
Nobody had ever seen Victor respect another inmate.
But the biggest secret had yet to be revealed.
Because Ethan wasn't sent to Blackstone by accident.
He came looking for someone.
Someone who had destroyed his family.

And that person was hiding inside the prison.
