Jerry's POV

Jake put the cuffs on us and leads us to the front. One of the riot gear wearing guards stopped us.

“Where are you taking these prisoners? ”

Jake took a deep breath and turned around. He casually placed the cuffs keys in my hand and winked. He turned back around relaxed his arms.

He's getting ready to fight. That's why he put the keys in my hand. Help. I sneakily unlocked my cuffs. Then a hand grabbed my shoulder. I turned around. It was the other one.

“I'm taking these prisoners back to their cell, ” he said in a deep husky voice.

He tried to pull me, but I dropped the cuff and kicked him. He fell to the ground. Jake saw and he turned and punched the other one. I tossed the key to Michael. Just as I did, the guy I kicked tackled me. I fell to the ground.

I saw Michael frantically unlock his cuffs. Even though he couldn't use his hands yet, he was kicking the guy off me.

Michael finally got his cuffs off and helped me. Michael pulled him off and held on to him. I got up and started punching him. Jake wasn't having any trouble. He must've been fighting all his life.

Michael yelled, “Take his helmet off! ”

That's exactly what I did. I didn't recognize him. But that didn't matter to me. I punched him in his face until he looked almost dead. Suddenly, Jake grabbed me from behind and pulled me away.

“Stop it! ”

Michael let go of him. Jake covered his mouth and stared at the guy.

I said, “Do you know him? ”

Michael looked at the guy and gasp.

“Why? Why? Why is everyone bad! ”

I got a little irritated. “Who is he?! ”

Michael said, “Steve. The other doctor with Jessica. ”

“What about the other guy? ”

Jake shook his head. “Don't know him.... Why would Steve do this? Is Henry blackmailing him or money? ”

Michael shrugged his shoulders. “He'll give us answers. He will. ”

Jake clenched his jaw. “Come on. Let's finish this. ”

We nod. Jake leads us out of the prison. But before we even made it out the door, the warden came over the intercom. Code Red! Two prisoners, Michael and Jerry, are escaping with one of our guards. Jake Terrence. This is a Code Red! Shoot them on sight!

I couldn't believe this! “Can they do that? ”

Jake responded, “No. You guys have to move, when I say move. You hear me? ”

We nodded. Jake crotched down.

“Ok. Listen, there's two towers up front. Only one is facing the prison. The other is facing the parking lot. I'll take this one out, but when we get to my car I'm leaving. With or without you. And if you're in the car, keep your heads down. Understood? ”

We nod. We heard footsteps heading toward us.

Jake looked at us, “Let's go. ”

He opened the door slightly and aimed his pistol toward the tower. He was deep concentration.

*bang*

“Go! ”

Jake took off running for his car. We we're right behind him. When we made it to his car. The guard started shooting at us. I've never been shot at before. My adrenaline rose to unbelievable levels. We jumped in the car and put our heads down. Jake started up and drove off fast. A few miles later Jake could drive regularly.

We settle down and Jake says, “Let's go get this son of a bitch. ”
