As the guards and prisoners engaged in a chaotic shootout in the cafeteria, Officer Sikes, who was in the clinic with Nurse Angela, froze at the sudden eruption of gunfire. His body tensed, and within seconds, he yanked his pants up and threw on his shirt."What the hell is going on down there?" he muttered, a puzzled expression crossing his face as he grabbed the pistol resting on the table beside him. Angela, her breath unsteady, quickly dressed as well, wiping the tears from her eyes with the sleeve of her coat.It had been more than two hours since Officer Sikes arrived at the clinic, and only now had he released her. The moment she was fully clothed, she rushed toward the bed where Caleb lay, her heart pounding as she checked on him.The first thing she did was press her fingers against his chest, searching for a heartbeat—but she felt nothing. A chill ran down her spine. Eyes widening in terror, she quickly moved to his wrist, feeling desperately for a pulse. Nothing."He's… dea

Angela pushed against the heavy entrance door, and as it slid open, a wave of stifling heat rushed out, engulfing her in an oppressive warmth. Beads of sweat immediately formed on her forehead, trickling down her temples before she even stepped inside. The sweltering air clung to her skin like a suffocating blanket, making it difficult to breathe.She exhaled sharply, steadying herself as she pushed the door open fully, her heart pounding against her ribs. Please, let him be here. She prayed silently, her eyes scanning the dimly lit, suffocating space.A sigh of relief escaped her lips as her gaze landed on him.Scott was there.The tiny room was unbearably hot, its air thick with sweat. He sat on the floor, his back pressed against the stained concrete wall, his jumpsuit soaked through with his sweat. The fabric clung to his body, emphasizing his broad shoulders and the tension in his posture.Scott didn’t react when the door creaked open—he assumed it was just another guard bringing

Gabriel, Adonis, and Diego climbed up the staircase that led to the second floor. After encountering the guards earlier and also losing one of their comrades they made sure their weapons were ready at all times, and their guards were high at all times. They gripped their guns tightly in their hands, their eyes scanning the place as they ascended.A few moments later they arrived on the second floor. They halted their steps and glanced around.It was a broad hallway, and several offices could be seen on both the right and left hand side of the place. A door could be seen a few meters away from where they were, and beside the door was a staircase that led to the top floor and a balcony.After examining the place for a few moments Gabriel spoke up."Come on, boys." He said in a hushed tone, signaling the boys to advance forward. However, when they attempted to walk forward the doors of a few offices flung open and guards stepped outside with their guns.The eyes of the group widened in t

Scott's eyes widened slightly after hearing the words of nurse Angela, and he swiftly made his way forward to see just what she was talking about. He dropped down to his knees and glanced at a particular area on the wall. There used to be a hole there, and the hole was the entrance of the tunnel. However, now the hole has been blocked by a round solid metal."It's been a while since I came down here. I had no idea it had been sealed." Angela muttered, her heart pounding in her chest and cold sweat trickling down her face."It's okay. You don't have to apologize. Just please stop talking." Scott bellowed. "I'm trying to think." He added, his gaze fixed intently on the metal that I was used to block the entrance."I know what I need to do. I'll have to get this out." Scott stated. "What? I don't think that's possible, Scott. Even if it's possible I don't think you'll be able to do it on time. Officer Sikes and the guards are currently on their way here." Angela said, her voice filled w

"You bastard! You can't escape from me!" Sikes spat as he came out of hiding and pointed his pistol at the duo who were getting away.BANG!He pulled the trigger, and the bullet traveled through the air."Argh!"As Scott rode the bike forward as fast as he could, he heard the sound of gunshot from behind, and followed after was a screaming of pain."Hey, Angela, are you okay?" Scott asked, his tone filled with worry. He would have loved to stop the bike and check up on her, but that wasn't an option right now because the guards were still on their neck.Angela didn't respond.The bullet officer Sikes shot connected neatly with her ribs area, and now blood was currently flowing out like water. She tried her best to slow down the bleeding by applying pressure on it with her right hand, but it just kept flowing out."Are you okay? Were you shot?" Scott questioned, his gaze fixed on the road as the bike kept gliding forward. Scott didn't need Angela to reply to know she had truly been sho
