Chapter 48: Learning to fight.

When Sloan woke, he was alone in the muddy cell. Octnavin was gone and with him went the warmth and Sloan’s ability to see better in the dark.

Struggling, Sloan tried to remember where the water stream was located. His eyes adjusted to the slivers of brightness here and there. The tiny lights flickered just enough to help him find the hole to pee in and then stumble to the fruit.

Earlier, Octnavin said the light came from the arena and the other cells. He told Sloan that some aliens produced a glow, which Sloan was seeing through the cracks. Even though Sloan was getting better at navigating the low light, he still missed his alien. Without Octnavin letting him use his eyes, he was at a disadvantage.
