Adventure Of A Lifetime

5. Prison Break

I marched out of Rebecca’s house with Dean at my heels. Rebecca had thought that it wold be great for Dean to help break our uncle out of jail. Molly and Chris were in the other cars and I slid into mine. Dean climbed in with a smile set on his lips. He had a bag on his lap with clothes and other things he needed. I had a bag too but it was in the boot of my car. Chris had gotten stuff like clothes for my uncle. There were to other bags that Dean didn’t know about. Those bags contained a gun, walkie-talkies and rope.

       I started my car up and Molly and Chris did the same. I began to feel nervous; Dean mustn’t have known how dangerous this was going to be.

       “Dean remember, when we get to the jail…”

       “I know, I have to stay in the car,” Dean continued my sentence.

       “Okay, let’s go,” I said nervously.

       I watched Molly drive away with Chris in the car. Dean had his iPod out and he listened to it. I got out of the car and closed the door. Chris had left my uncle’s car unlocked and the key in the ignition. I did the same with my car. I walked around the prison to the main entry.

       “Why are you walking?” the guard at the gate asked me when I reached the main entry.

       “A friend dropped me off down the road,” I said and pointed down the road.         

The guard nodded and let me in. I looked at my watch and I knew visiting hours had just started. I walked into the visitor’s entry.

       “Who are you seeing?” a guard asked me suspiciously.

       “My uncle, Josh Mason,” I replied. The guard stiffen and glared at me.            “I’m not going to break him out. I’m going on a holiday with a friend and I thought I would stop by and visit.”

       “I will take you to a room where he can’t escape,” the guard said. He began walking and I followed him. The guard stopped and spoke to another guard, then began to walk again.

       I followed him into a small conference room. I surveyed the room and saw a camera on the opposite side of the room. I could take the camera out easily. I had picked up a few stones back at Rebecca’s house. I sat down in one of the chairs. A door opened on the other side of the room and my uncle walked in with a guard right behind him. It was the same guard the one that led me to the room talked to.

       “Summer,” my uncle said surprised to see me.

       “Hi Uncle Josh,” I said. The guard with my uncle undone the handcuffs and my uncle walked over and took a seat.

       “So, what brings you to see me?” Uncle Josh asked running a hand through his brown hair.

       “I was passing through and I thought that I would see you,” I replied.

       “Oh, so you aren’t breaking me out,” Uncle Josh said a smile playing on the edge of his lips. The guards tensed and my uncle waved them off. “I’m joking; I know you wouldn’t do that.”

       “I missed you so much,” I said.

       “I missed you too,” Uncle Josh replied. He looked around the room, “so no Lauren or Neil?”

       I shuddered at their names and my uncle looked at me with concern.

       “No, I going on holidays for a while with a friend,” I replied.
