The Sunday night to Monday morning shift was always a slow night at Arkham Asylum. Monroe never normally cared which shift he worked, but this one was always slow to the point of boredom. During the week, the inmates were often feisty and in need of a hefty baton to the back of the legs before a doctor could arrive on the scene to administer sedatives.

Monroe hadn’t started out as a cruel warder, but years of being spat at, clawed, and otherwise abused by the lunatics kept confined in the asylum had driven any hint of compassion for his charges from his body long ago. Monroe had assumed the role of jailer more and more, until he no longer thought of the men behind bars as human.

They were inmates, numbers, and conditions.

Problems to be contained.

Yes, the Sunday to Monday shift was always a slow night. Which was why this particular shift would stand out in his memory as being so different.
