CHAPTER 63: Scorpions Threat
“Buzz.”The alarm rang through the whole block, loud and sharp, and every prisoner started moving out of their cells toward the yard. Nelson walked out with them, his eyes already working before his feet had fully settled into the pace of everyone around him.As he stepped into the yard his eyes caught the writing on the net above in bold capital letters.“INMATES APPROACHING INCOMING AIRCRAFT WILL BE SHOT.”He turned to Ken, confusion still sitting on his face.“What are those words supposed to mean?”Ken laughed and pointed up at one of the towers positioned at the edge of the yard. Men with guns stood up there scanning the environment in every direction. The tower was so high that looking up at it made you wonder how anyone got up there in the first place.“Those security up there are more dangerous than any prisoner you see walking around this yard. Most of them were once inmates themselves before they decided to switch sides and work with the system. The only difference between t
CHAPTER 62: First night behind bars
The noise of the prison hit different during the night. The whole block was alive with it. Voices bouncing off walls, the heavy sound of boots hitting the floor every few seconds, arguments erupting behind bars between men who had never physically met but had been shouting at each other long enough that they felt like enemies anyway. Nelson stood at the bars of his cell and watched everything in front of him slowly and carefully. Every corner he looked at was filled with men who had stopped caring about living or dying a long time ago. You could see it in the way they moved. The way they looked at new faces. The way they looked at nothing. Then a voice came from across the corridor. “Hey. Is it you again right? You think you just walked away from what happened back there?” A short laugh followed it. “Today was your lucky day new guy. But luck does not come around here too often so I would not get comfortable with it.” Nelson looked across at the face behind the bars. He said not
Chapter 61: Entering Zone One
“Buzzzzz.”The heavy prison gate slowly opened with a metallic sound that echoed hard through Nelson’s ears.For a brief second, he stopped walking.His eyes slowly turned toward the outside world behind him.Freedom.The city.The open sky.He stood there for a moment like he was giving the world one final glance before stepping into another life entirely.“Move!”A guard shoved him roughly from behind.Nelson staggered forward slightly before catching himself almost immediately.The chains around his wrists rattled softly.He stopped as he slowly turned his head toward the guard.The deadly look in Nelson’s eyes instantly made the guard freeze.The man’s grip loosened unconsciously from Nelson’s arm.Fear flashed across his face for a second.“I… I said move,” the guard repeated, but this time his voice shook slightly like he wasn’t even sure of his own authority anymore.Nelson stared at him for one more second before finally turning around and walking deeper into the prison.The l
Chapter 60: Three years behind bars
“Given that you still have not changed your mind regarding your criminal conduct,” the judge said, adjusting the file before her, “for that reason, I believe you need to see the inside of a prison cell, Mr. Nelson.”The courtroom instantly went silent.Everyone waited for a reaction.Fear.Regret.Panic.Anything.But instead, Nelson smiled.A faint smile curled at the edge of his lips, almost too subtle for anyone to notice.Yet somehow, it was there.And strangely enough, the judge’s words sounded almost pleasing to his ears.The judge lowered her head toward the papers again before raising it moments later.“From what I see here,” she continued, “you specifically requested a prison facility around Willet Town.”She adjusted her glasses.“And I am willing to honour that request. You will be placed under Zone One.”John suddenly moved forward.“What?” his voice rose immediately. “That’s one of the worst prisons you’re putting him into!”The courtroom stirred slightly.The judge slowl
Chapter 59: Have to do this on my own
“How the hell did you let Nelson get himself involved in something like this?” James’ voice echoed through the living room, sharp with frustration. John stayed quiet, his hands clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned pale. He looked like he wanted to pierce through his own skin from the pressure building inside him. “Look, James,” John finally said, his voice low but strained. “I talked to Nelson about this. I tried to stop him, but he was certain about the decision. Then you fly all the way down here and start talking to me like I never made an attempt.” James paced around the room, his frustration clearly written across his face. He stopped suddenly and turned to John. “You are his personal assistant, John,” he said firmly. “You’re supposed to know every move he takes, even before he takes it.” John slowly rose from his chair. Anger flashed through his eyes. “What the hell kind of words are those coming from you?” he snapped, walking closer. “Do you even realize you’re
Chapter 58: Sterling Bank
Nelson stood across the road, a thick black hood covering most of his face as cars sped past him without care. The morning did not shine the way it usually did. The sky looked dull, almost as though it could somehow feel the unbearable weight resting on his shoulders.His attention stayed fixed on the massive building standing on the other side of the road. The bold silver words at the top of the building sent a strange chill down his spine.STERLING BANK.He swallowed hard.For a moment, his feet refused to move. Never in his life had he imagined that he would one day stand in front of a bank with plans to rob it. A bitter smile touched his lips.Life was funny.A few months ago, people would have laughed if someone had suggested he would ever end up here. Nelson Reed the respected businessman, the man everyone praised, the one people called upright and disciplined.Now look at him.Standing like a criminal.No.Not even standing like one.Becoming one.But what choice did he really
