As Three, Six, and Nyx were escorted to the maximum-security prison, a heavy silence hung over them, each of them grappling with the weight of their predicament. 

The corridors of the prison were cold and oppressive, a stark contrast to the freedom they had once known aboard the Raza.

Inside their cells, the crew found themselves confined to cramped quarters, the walls closing in around them as they were left to contemplate their uncertain future.

Meanwhile, Five found herself in the stark confines of the juvenile detention center, surrounded by other young detainees whose eyes held a mixture of fear and resignation.

A prison guard was escorting those who were out their cells back inside them. As he went up to the fifth story of cells and clicked a button unlocking all cells including Three, Six and Nyx's cells. 

"Recess for an hour use the card you have to get food from the machine" The guard said as he walked away.

Three, Six and Nyx huddled up in Three's cell as they began discussing a way out.

"So.. What are our options here?" Three spoke in an annoyed tone as he laid down on his hard bed.

"Well we obviously can't confess because it would put Two at jeopardy." Nyx said as she paced around

Six leaned against the wall, his brow furrowed in thought. "We need to find a way to get out of here without drawing attention to ourselves," he said, his voice low.

Nyx nodded in agreement. "We could try to find a weakness in the security system, or look for a way to disable the locks on our cells," she suggested.

"But even if we manage to get out of our cells, we still need to get past the guards and navigate through the prison," Three pointed out, his expression grim.

"We'll need a distraction," Six said, his eyes narrowing with determination. "Something to draw the guards away while we make our escape."

Nyx glanced around the cell, her mind racing as she considered their options. "We could start a fight in the yard," she suggested. "It would create enough chaos to give us an opening to slip away unnoticed."

Three nodded in agreement. "It's risky, but it might be our best chance," he said, his tone resolute.

"Hold on.. Don't you guys remember if there's any riots or fights the guards activate that high pitched noise which immediately makes you go unconscious if you're not wearing ear plugs." Six said

Before Three could speak up Six stopped him "And no Three covering your ears don't make a difference." Six said with a sigh

Three frowned, his expression darkening as he considered Six's words. "So even if we start a fight, were still in a disadvantage." he muttered, his frustration mounting.

Nyx chewed on her lower lip, her mind racing as she searched for an alternative plan. "What if we create a diversion elsewhere in the prison?" she suggested. "Something that draws the guards away from our cells long enough for us to make our escape."

Six nodded thoughtfully. "That could work," he said, his eyes brightening with newfound hope. "We just need to find a way to create enough chaos to keep the guards occupied while we slip away."

One of the prisoners named Ran who was well known of being apart of a feared gang within the prison walked towards the cell he leaned to the wall 

"Mind if I join the discussion?" Ran asked with a smirk as he slightly lifted up his shirt revealing a stolen gun in strapped to his waist 

Three, Six, and Nyx exchanged wary glances as they took in the sight of the gun strapped to Ran's waist. Despite their apprehension, they knew they couldn't afford to turn down an opportunity for assistance, especially from someone with Ran's reputation.

"Sure, why not," Three said cautiously, his tone guarded. "What do you have in mind?"

Ran grinned, his eyes gleaming with mischief as he leaned closer to the cell bars. "I've got a plan that just might get us out of this mess," he said cryptically. "But first, we're gonna need to cause a little distraction."

Nyx raised an eyebrow, her curiosity piqued. "What kind of distraction?" she asked, her voice tinged with suspicion.

Ran's grin widened as he glanced around the cell block, his gaze lingering on the guards stationed nearby. "Let's just say I've got a few tricks up my sleeve," he said with a wink. "But we'll need everyone on board if we're gonna pull this off."

Meanwhile in Dwarf Star Technologies 

Two slumped against the cold, unforgiving floor of the dimly lit room, the harsh glare of the overhead lights casting her bruised and battered form into stark relief. 

She felt utterly drained, every muscle in her body aching from the relentless onslaught of the experiments she had endured.

The room felt oppressively silent, the only sound echoing through the empty space being the ragged rhythm of her own labored breathing. 

Each breath sent a sharp pang of pain coursing through her weary body, a stark reminder of the brutality she had been subjected to.

Her skin bore the telltale marks of the countless needles that had pierced her flesh, leaving behind a patchwork of bruises and welts that served as a haunting testament to the horrors she had endured. 

Alexander stepped into the room, his presence looming like a dark shadow, Two's heart quickened with fear. She knew all too well the power he held over her, the ability to inflict unimaginable pain with the simple push of a button.

Instinctively, Two backed away, her eyes fixed on the remote clutched tightly in Alexander's hand. 

"You don't have to do this Rook," she said, her voice trembling with fear. "please.."

Alexander's lips curled into a chilling smile, his eyes gleaming with malice as he advanced towards her. "Oh, my dear Rebecca," he said, his voice dripping with venom. "Its to late for that."

With a flick of his wrist, Alexander activated the remote, sending a surge of electricity coursing through the shock bracelet encircling Two's wrist.

 She cried out in pain as the voltage surged through her body, her muscles convulsing uncontrollably as she collapsed to the ground, writhing in agony.

After a few minutes he turned it off and gave Two a cold smile "I'll see you soon Rebecca.." he said in a low tone almost a whisper as he walked away.

Two laid down on the floor breathing heavily as she noticed the scientists looking from the observing room with disgust, she felt helpless

Her friends were gone there stuck far away in jail, she's gone stuck in this hellhole with nothing to gain or loose, was this how her life would play out? Forever..?
