End a life to start a war (posting copy)...

The prisoner didn't move from his position, sitting on the slim window ledge that was set high into the stone walls.
He had one leg bent so he could stretch out on arm, his elbow leaning on his knee and his head bent, exposing his neck to the chilly breeze blowing in the gaps between the vertical bars that held him back from escaping through the window. He had his eyes closed and his other hand buried in his ruby red hair as if in deep thought.
He was thinking, but couldn't find an outcome. He didn't know how he'd gotten here. The last thing he remembered was taking his turn on patrol of his ship then waking up in this place then being brought to his cell.
Faint footsteps broke the prisoner's concentration and he strained his ears to hear what was being said through the thick, metal door to his high security cell.
'Is this him, then?' One man asked, excitement and triumph obvious in his voice.
'Yeah, finally.' Another man answered.
'But he's just a kid, right?' The first man asked, making the prisoner burn with anger. He was not just a kid.
'Right. But take a look, you can tell it's the right guy just by looking.' A new voice spoke up then there was an echoing bang as the cover to the little window in the door was pulled back.
'Where is he? I can't see - wait. How the hell did he get up there?!' The man by the door had obviously spotted the prisoner, about thirty feet off the floor.
'What, where is he?' The newest voice sounded worried in case he'd let the most important prisoner escape.
'Up on the window.' The man looking into the cell didn't turn to watch the man's reaction as he said this but it was obvious that he wasn't so worked up anymore.
'Yeah, so he can climb up bare stone too, now?' One asked in a sarcastic voice.
'Do you want to look for yourself?' The man at the door moved aside and a new pair of distinctive red goggles replaced the ones before him.
'Whoa. That's creepy. Just the silhouette.' There was a muffled but obvious slapping sound as one man made a mocking ''wooooo''.
'I can't tell it's him though. Hey, boy!' The man directed to the prisoner who didn't react. 'Hey, look at me when I'm talking to you!' The man at the door tried again.
The prisoner opened his eyes and turned his head slowly to face the door.
The man gasped as all he could see was the ring of magnificent green from the prisoner's eyes, reflected on shadow.
'It's him. You'd remember those eyes anywhere.' The man grimaced then moved aside for another guard outside to look in.
He stared at the prisoner long and hard until the fourteen year old boy moved his head from leaning against his knees to be resting against the wall behind him. He kept facing the same direction and the red streaks of the sky outside illuminated one side of his young, handsome face, making his bright red hair swirl slightly in the light breeze.
He curled his lip in a silent growl and the talon at the door gasped as a row of fantastically white teeth joined the rings of green, two teeth slightly longer than the rest giving off the affect of fangs.
He jumped back and snapped the window cover back into place, hiding the boy from view.
'Yep, it's definitely him.' One almost laughed with disbelief.
'Finally, we've captured Aerrow, leader of the Storm Hawks! Well, he's not such a great leader now is he?' The other men laughed at this comment but their next words were inaudible as Aerrow let out a yell from inside his cell that echoed and vibrated right the way through the dungeons of Cyclonia.
It hurt him that he couldn't be there for his squadron. It hurt him that he was here in the first place but he needed to somehow tell his team to stay away and not try to rescue him. He'd eventually find a way out but if they came here they were doomed.
A hurt but menacing laugh rang out as Aerrow thought that that was something his driver of the Condor would say. Then his laughter broke down and his sobs finally overtook him, shaking his frame silently.

I hope this has got you interested, if not, please keep reading anyway because it gets better! ;)
