A week later:

"Lucas!"

My head shoots up from my mattress at my name being thrown

"You got into PI, congratulations" Bellick says as he walks up to my cell with a smug smile "work starts in ten"

I barely have time to register what he says before he's unlocking my cell and placing my hands into cuffs.

"Yay?" I question as he starts to walk off

I try to wake myself from my sleepy state after taking a nap after breakfast as I rush to catch up to him as we exit the block and step outside.

I squint as the morning light hits my face.

"What exactly are-"

"It's barely 9 in the morning, do me a favour and shut your trap" Bellick says

I close my mouth but not before muttering a "rude"

He walks me past the outside area and over towards a building not too far away.

I had never really given the structure much thought before but now that I was stood outside of it I realise that I had no idea what it was for.

I go to ask Bellick but he just walks away- leaving me standing outside, confused

Suddenly the door opens

"Sucre? What's going on?" I ask as he sees me

"Mamì" he says when he sees me "I see Abruzzi managed to get you in. I wondered why each of us got subjected to questioning yesterday- they must have needed to make sure that non of us would try to hurt you while we are working"

I give him a reluctant smile as he continues

"Anyway- come- I will show you what's going on"

I nod as he walks me through the small building and to a door

It's open and it reveals a sort of break room that is black with the aftermath of some sort of fire.

"Jesus!" I say when I see it

"Yeah it was a complete mystery how it happened" he says before he closes the door and turns back to me "ok so it's not much of a mystery. While you spent the past few days with those guys in suits, Micheal has been cracking on with the plan. He somehow convinced Oldie- you know, the one with the cat- to help us set the place on fire."

I look at him like he's crazy as he continues

I look to the other people in the room and they look unsurprised by him retelling the events

"And we are going to start digging downwards so that Micheal can access underground"

He finishes and looks at me in expectation and I simply nod- not having much idea what the plan is.

He continues "you can work with T-bag on fixing up that part of the wall-"

"Absolutely not!" I say quickly

"No way" Ink says at the same time

I didn't even see him but now I do. He stands across the room and straightens himself up as he stands from hauling a bag of cement mix.

He dusts his hands off as white particles fly around the small space.

"She's not working with him, I don't trust him as far as I can throw him. Not after the nights of him singing how he's going to rape her every night" Ink says

Everyone looks at me and I nod

"Not a chance" I finish

Sucre nods

"I want to be as far away from him as possible" I say

"You can work with me" Ink speaks up

I look at him before I nod

"Ok" I say in a small voice

"I am the furthest from him, I mean" he says as he looks away

"Yeah... of cause"

"Well" Sucre says to break the tension "that settles it, time for the first day of work my friends"

I nod as I walk over to Ink and let out a breath

I wait a minute before I pick up my mallet and start to chip away at the burn wall that we are both working on

It's silent in our corner as we work

"Listen, Ink, I wanted to ask if we are ok?"

He stops hitting the wall before glancing at me and continuing

"Yeah, why wouldn't we be?" He asks as he also smashes his hammer into the wall

I nod and start working again before I sigh

"It's just that you've not spoken to me much the past few days, I was worried-"

"You've been busy with your lawyers about finding a way to get you transferred and I've been busy planning our escape incase you are stuck here.... We've both just been busy" he says

I look at him and I see the way his jaw clenches as he swings his mallet at the wall again and I decide to leave it, however I know that whatever he just said was total bollocks and we both know it.
