As tomorrow creeps in, so is Leo's feelings of guilt for framing what could be his partner in getting out of this hellhole. Nevertheless, he had no choice, but to shrug off those feelings of guilt, otherwise his chances of escaping would be hampered.

It was time for breakfast. Everyone's minding their own thing as usual, but Leo just couldn't. He wasn't used to seeing Ana's spot replaced by somebody else. This time though, it was Dessy who sat there. She's also confused on why Ana isn't here, so she asked Leo about it.

Dessy - "Where's Ana? She kinda seemed to dissapear."
Leo, noticeably frozen in guilt - "I... don't know."
Dessy - "You look pale, what's wrong?"
Leo - "Oh, n-nothing! W-was just worried about her, y'know, heh..."

Dessy seemed to buy into his lies.

A moment has passed, and the bell rang, signifying the end of breakfast. As they were escorted out for the usual 'education' program, he noticed someone usually absent from the prison sitting on the benches, with guards to his lefts and rights.

When everyone was seated, a guard came up and said that the warden had something to announce.

The contents of the announcement was exactly what Leo expected. It turns out that for 'killing' the guard, Ana would be shot in a week. What he doesn't realize however, is that Ana has become a bit of a problem for the prison guards, and that Leo's framing has allowed the prison to get rid of a troublemaker.

Everyone's reactions were mixed. Most of the inmate's faces screams out a "Meh" type of expression. However, Dessy seemed to not take the news well. Her eyes are widened, in shock of the news. She seemed to be on the verge of breaking into tears, but she tried to hide it. "Heh, I knew that bastard would get into trouble someday." she remarks, while holding back her tears.

...

Remember that time when Leo sacked the dead guard's clothes for his stuff? So, Leo's found none other than a keycard. It's like, a one key fits all locks type of keycard. He knows this is a pretty darn powerful tool to escape, but if he done did it at the wrong time, he's toast.

So Leo waited. And waited.

He doesn't need to wait for long enough, though. By the freetime after lunch, there was a big enough crowd for him to mask his escape. But he wants to bring someone out with him. So it's none other than Dessy.

Leo then went looking for Dessy. He was starting to panic, because the escape window was starting to narrow the longer he goes looking for her. Then, he went to Dessy's cell. To nobody's surprise, he found her there, lying on her bed.

Leo - "Come, we need to go."

As Dessy turned around, Leo could clearly see that her eyes are red and puffy, but he chose not to make a comment about it.

Dessy - "To where?"
Leo - "Out of here."
Dessy - "But Ava-"
Leo - "We will get her later. For now, we have to get the hell outta here."

So then Dessy proceeded to follow Leo. The sun was going down, and he knows that soon, his chance to get out is about to be screwed. Fortunately, there is still enough time, for Dessy and Leo managed to enter unlock the door with the keycard, and go inside it. It turns out, that they took the right turn. The building they entered is the building for booking inmates, so they would have an easy access out of there.

But then, Leo went to the a room with the name 'Evidence Lockup'. Of course, Dessy followed suit. It turns out that this room has guns, and a workbench to modify those guns. Leo then managed to modify two MP5's to attach suppressors on it, so when they have to shoot, it won't raise much of an alarm.

As the both of them armed themselves, Leo could hear that dinner is starting. The chances of his and Dessy's dissapearance being noticed is high. Thus, Leo told Dessy to get out of the prison. Dessy complied.

Leo and Dessy then managed to get out of the lobby. He could see that there is a garage for police cars. So, he told Dessy to grab one of the police cars, while Leo would open the gate. As Dessy made her way to the garage, Leo made his way to the outpost that controls the gate. He could clearly see that there is someone inside of the outpost, of course. So, he set his gun to be Full Auto. Then, he opened the door and blasted the guard's head clean off. Then, he opened the gate for him and Dessy's getaway car. Unfortunately, the guard's radio was active the entire time, and when the guard stopped responding, the prison was immediately alarmed. So when Leo went inside of the car, he could clearly hear the blaring alarms of the prison, and several shots fired at them from the nearest towers. Without any moment for hesitation, Dessy stepped on the gas, and sent the car away.

Unfortunately, Dessy doesn't know her way around the place, so she just went wherever the road goes. Soon enough, they encountered a warehouse-like building. They entered the place, and it seemed to be empty. Until, Leo got knocked to the ground and had a gun to his head. Dessy froze, not knowing what to do, as another person behind the crates aimed their gun at both of them.
