"And once again, the winner of the Grand InterPoker Championship is Jack!"
Once again, Jack was in the spotlight. The night was his to enjoy, having earned another 2,000,000 $ in the championship. He passed by an electronics store and saw his face in the TV's that were place in front of the store. He smiled lightly at himself looking good in a suit. He enjoyed his fame, thinking of the hell he was through when he was younger. Some girls passed by him, staring at him with an affectionate look. He would enjoy some drinks with the ladies, but tonight he wanted to rest. He smiled at them and moved on to his house. A few moments before he reached his destination, he felt strange, sleepy. He was sure it wasn't his typical hangover, because he didn't drink at all. Then he heard some people speaking in a strange language, before passing out.
It was the fourth time he woke up inside that tube. However many times he woke up, he was disgusted by the sight of Vitus-that's what he figured out they were named-in front of him. The liquid he was in caused him intense pain, but he wouldn't give the pleasure to alien scum to show them a vulnerabe image. He gritted his teeth every time, not giving the aliens the slightest idea of discomfort. What did they want from him anyway? Surely not money. That would be a failure of an alien race. He made these amusing thoughts to keep himself sane from the pain he was in.
Suddenly he heard sounds. Not the usual sounds he heard inside the whatever he was in, but sounds of destruction, most possibly a fight. Whatever it was, he hoped someone would take him out. As the Vitus ran to check out what happened, Jack touched the glass like he was expecting someone to take him out, but something even more unusual happend. The glass just exploded, without reason. As the liquid was flowing out, Jack jumped from the tube to the ground, puzzled that he wasn't even slightly hurt. He picked a piece of glass from the ground and it turned red. Shocked, he threw the piece of glass in a nearby wall and it once again exploded.
"Well, what do you know..." he thought and smiled.
He quickly looked around to find his clothes. Sometime later, he found his suit, but what he cared for the most was his Jack of Spades card. He was glad to find it inside. He dressed, then moved to find what caused the uproar. He picked shards of glass, figuring out he could use them as weapons with this exploding thingy he did. As he ran through the corridors, he encountered some Vitus, but they were no match for his exploding shards. He kept running until he heard a continuous "CLANG" sound. He approached carefully to see a girl hitting an already dead alien with a creepy smile on her face. He approached her, grabbed the metal pipe she was hitting the Vitus with and said:
"I don't think that such violent behaviour suits a lady like yourself, mademoiselle.Besides, I can't see how hitting an already dead alien will get you out of here!"
