It was an audacious attempt, but it was one I had to take. I had to get out, we had to. It was unfair that I was incarcerated for something I didn't do. Our conscientious plan was to get out of Owl Lake Penitentiary. Ever since I embarked into Owl Lake, I knew I had to get out. There is only one way to depict Owl Lake, dirty. The cells were dirty, the prisoners smelled horribly, and the food tasted like rats.
It was around seven o'clock when my plan started. I was out in the yard, watching some guys play basket-ball. The first part of the plan was to start a fight.
"You shoot like a girl" I exclaimed, as one of the prisoners missed a shot. It was a little childish but I knew it would work.
"What you say?" he said as he approached me.
I got up and stood up to him. He was pretty big, I knew I had no chance. I backed up a little, and whispered sorry. He sneered, and that's when I punched him. I hit him squared in the jaw, his mouth was full with blood.
"I'm sorry, did I hit you?" I said as I started to run away.
There were about five people chasing me until the guards came.
"Hey, Hey, What's going on?" exclaimed one of the guards.
"He hit, Skittles" shouted one of the prisoners.
"Come with me" said the guard in a lackadaisical voice.
He took me back to my cell. On the way there I manage to trigger the fire alarm. The loud sound hurted my hear. The guard took me by the arm and placed handcuffs on me. We went out to the yars, where the guards we lining up the prisoners. There were about a hundred prisoners, so the yard was pretty full.
"Is it real?" whispered one of the guards.
We were about fifteen feet away from the building. I sneaked into the back of the line. The gates were wired and if you touch you will probably fry. Except, in case of a fire, they turn it off.
"Yo, guard! Take those handcuffs off me! What if there is a fire and I need..." I was interrupted by the loud siren of the ambulance.
"Yeah, come over here' said one of the guards.
He took the handcuffs off me, and I went to the back. Even if I manage to skip over the fifteen feet gate, there was no way I will make it out without been seen. I located the ambulance position, that was my way out. I needed some kind of distraction so I could manage to skip over the gate.
"Well, it looks like it was a false alarm. Get the prisoners back to their cells" said the prison warden.
It was too late, we were all line up and ready to go back inside. I couldn't let this opportunity go away. I push the prisoners in front causing him to disrupt the line. Some prisoners took it personal, and started scuffing at each other. There was a huge fight, and everyone was involved. The guards tried to break it up, but were outnumbered. It was my break, all the snipers were pointing toward the fight. I ran as fast as I could toward the gate. I manage to get a good leap and few seconds later, I was on the other side. It felt good to be free, but it wasn't over. I needed to catch the ambulance. Most of the firemen were on board but the fight had caught their attention. I try to sneak into the ambulance, but it was too far away. If I ran, dust will rise and bring attention. I needed to wait but sooner or later, they will realize that I am missing.
Ten minuted passed until the fight was over. The prisoners were back in the cells but the firemen were still here. They should of left long ago, but they were still here.I took my shoe and my jumpsuit off. I waited for them to leave. I needed them for shield. They finally started the firetrucks engine. It was fifteen minutes since I had gotten out. I was so happy to leave until I saw the warden and several other guards walk out onto the prison yard. They had realize I was gone. I was hiding behind a bush, but sooner or later, they will come find me. I was ready to leave, prison was hell, and i didn't want to go back. I can't go back, even if I had to die.
I couldn't wait for the firetruck so I too of. Running as fast as I could. I had a sudden burst of adrenaline. I ran quicker than I had ever done in my life. I never stop running even when the prison was far behind me. I heard some shots fired but didn't pay attention. I had ran about a mile until I finally stop. I laid on the desert ground, I had done it. I was out of prison. I got up and realize that I was bleeding profusely from my stomach. I didn't feel it at first, but after a while, I was in pain. The nearest city was about ten miles from here. I was wearing just my boxers and t-shirt so I couldn't ask for a ride. I heard the siren of a police car. I was devastated, all of this for nothing. The police car seem to get closer. It was coming from the east, not from the prison. It suddenly stop as soon as it was fifteen from me. I turn around to see if I could escape. I was trapped. Another police car was coming from the west. I knew how this would end.
