Liberty always came through with the goods, Blair told herself as she took the offered package with a rare smile. Smiles were rare in a place like this, so her face rarely made a smile.<br/><br/>Subly opening one side of it with a knife that appeared as if by magic, she took a quick look inside but didnt take out anything. One never advertised what one had, and the contents of the bag would make her life a bit more comfortable in a place like this. Even a hell could have a bit of heaven in it.<br/><br/>Subly opening the breath mints, she slipped one into her mouth and sighed at the minty aroma that filled her mouth. A bit of heaven meant so much when one was in a hellish place, she said soflty to herself, then smiled again at Liberty.<br/><br/>"Thank you, this will make life a bit more bearable", she said to her, as her current hairbrush had so many bent or missing bristles that it was near useless, and her soap had run out a week ago.The candies were something she had missed, and to her surprise, they were from Proteon 5, a taste of the home that she missed.<br/><br/>"No ones been bothering you have they Liberty, you just drop their name and they'll be sorry", she said to her. She enjoyed spending time with Liberty, and watched her back whenever she had a bath, to ensure that she was unmolested, and her bag was untouched by anyone.<br/><br/>When one man in particular came close to them, she saw Liberty's face.That look told her that she really didnt want to talk to him, or see him. Stepping in front of her, she told him to piss off, and piss off right away.<br/><br/>When he didnt get the message, and even reached for her shoulder, she acted. The movement wasnt even complete before Blair's knife arm flashed up and the top of his left ear was sliced off, clean and quick, he never even felt it. It was only when he felt the blood against his neck that he realised that he had been cut.<br/><br/>"Unless you want to lose the other ear, take off", she told him, then smiled for the third time that day as he took off.<br/>"Idiot", she said softly as she turned back to Liberty, who was no stranger to violence, or to the violence that others would do on her behalf.<br/><br/>"I could really use a new toothbrush. One prisoner uses one on a guard, and we all have to play for it. I dont want to have to invite a guard into my cell to get one Liberty, its demeaning", she says, yet she will if she has to.
