The next morning I get woken up in a way I never expected.

I rub my eyes as I listen.

Sighing I get out of my bed and walk to the bars of my cell.

"Hey" I say as a guard walks past. It's the nice guard who I realise I don't even know his name.

"I think there is a bird or something pecking at the wall. It's really annoying can you sort it out?" I ask

"That wall?" He asks

I nod

"No that can't be right, that's the wall to a hallway that connects to the internal mechanisms of the prison, there can't be any birds in there or they would die" he explains

I scratch my head but I notice that the knocking has stopped anyway

"Anything else?" He asks with a smile

"Yeah. What's your name?"

"Oh. I'm Robert Hudson...though I don't think I'm allowed to tell you my first name so just ignore that"

I laugh "well Hudson your about the only guard who's not tried to either grope me or hit me so thank you" I say with a smile

He nods "just doing my job" he says "I have a daughter so I wouldn't dream of it"

"Well thank you anyway" I say

He nods as he goes to walk away

"I'll get someone to look into the bird thing if you want" he offers

I think about it before I reply

"You know what, it's fine. We don't need more people walking behind these walls then needed. I've heard it's even hotter back there then here" I say with a smile

"Have a good day, Lucas" he says with a smile

I salute him as he walks away and I sigh. I walk over to the back wall of my cell and I press my ear against it, the noise isn't heard anymore.

———————————————

"You know the drill, an hour and then back to your cell" A guard says as he unlocks my handcuffs and locks the door to my outside area behind me

"Yeah, I know. Any chance I could get a new notebook?" I ask

"You've been in here for less then a week and you've already used all your last one?" He asks me

"Well you know I got nothing but time and a pen.... I've been busy" I say trying to look as innocent as possible

He nods as he walks away "I will see what I can do"

I turn around, satisfied, and I walk over to meet Lincoln

"Burrows" I call as I see him

"How was your sleep?" He asks me

"Same old, same old" I say

"Any news on when you are getting out of here?" He says as he places his hands in his pockets "you know, transferred. I told you it's not safe here"

I smile as I look up at him from the ground "you sound like a worried big brother" I tease

"Well it's in my blood with Micheal and all" he laughs

I nod as I glance out at the other outside area and I see Micheal walking over to the fence

"Well, speak of the devil. And to answer your question about getting out of here.... I think it might be sooner then anticipated" I say with a smirk

Lincoln gives me a confused look as I walk over to see Micheal

"Ink-" I start

"You can't tell anyone" he says suddenly

"So I was right?" I ask

He sighs

"I don't know how you figured it out, but yes. You guessed what we are doing" he says

I smile

"So can I join?" I ask, hopefully

He looks at me before he nods

"We've got to get you on PI though, that's where we are going to come up with a plan"

I nod before I remember exactly why I had given him the piece of paper with my ideas of what he could have been talking about with sucrè that night.

"Ink" I say as he looks at me "I've got Bellick on my back." I say seriously

"Is what he's offering you worth it?" He asks, clearly used to Bellick pressuring people

I nod "I'll be able to see my family"

He thinks for a minute before he nods

"Then you will have to tell him the 'plan'" he says

"Oh I'm going to tell him the 'plan' alright, but if he figures out that I'm bending the truth I will be dead meat." I say

"I won't let him hurt you and besides the actual plan is heating up as we speak" he says "no pun intended"

I nod "Oh, Lincoln also says hi" I say knowing that he didn't but also realising that he probably wanted to

I watch as Ink looks over at Lincoln and they exchange looks of sadness.

"Hey, the plan is going to work and you'll be able to save him" I say "Remmeber what you said to me: devastated: yes, loosing hope: never"

A whistle blows as he nods

"Ladies, outside time is over!"

I walk away as he does as well. When I look at my guard I freeze as I see it's Bellick who stands jangling my handcuffs in front of him.

"I think it's time we have a little chat" he says with a smile

"I think it's time we have a little chat" he says with a smile
