      "That boy is a nut case, a complete and certified nut case", I thought to myself as Beau creeped out the door. "This is not a good idea", Jai said peeking out the door. "Yea, I have a bad feeling about this", Luke added, nibbling on his thumb nail. Beau was only about 5 feet from the door. "As Luke has said before", Beau stated, a devious smile plastered across his face, "You gotta risk it, to get the biscuit". I couldn't help but smile. "Fine", Luke huffed and followed Beau out of the room. James put his hands on his face and slid them down, stretching his face. "Whatever it takes", he shrugged. Jai, James and I wandered out of the room. I tiptoed, watching my every step. We walked past another cell and I couldn't help but look in through the tiny slot. A guy was in a tattered uniform and weeping. I shivered at the disturbing image. He looked at me and screamed." Oh ****", I said under my breath. I shut the slot and caught up with the boys, who had moved farther down the dark corridor.

     The lights continuously flickered as we rounded a corner. I could tell Beau wasn't himself. His movements were rigid and he looked tense. "Why are we doing this, Beau?", Jai whimpered, he was shaking, "Let's just go back before we get caught". "I think I know where he's going with this", James spoke, his eyes soft. Jai nodded and I rubbed my hand across his back, trying to calm little Brooks. We continued until we reached two flights of stairs, one going up, the other going down. "Let's go check out the next floor up" Beau said and turned slightly. You could see his brow glistening in the eerie lighting. We followed him up the stairs. However, when we reached the top Luke pulled Beau back and covered the older brothers mouth. Beau tried to speak through his hand. "Shhhh..." Luke hissed and pointed up to the ceiling. I raised my eyes up and I could see why Luke freaked. Leave it to Luke to find the only (security) camera in the perimeter.

   The small, silver camera shifted position slightly. We all pushed ourselves against the wall and slid slowly, until we were safe. We had reached the third floor. More screams and wailing followed our arrival (A/N: Sounds like EVERY meet up ever). James growled suddenly and we all looked towards the end of the hall. There was a door which read "Staff Only". We rounded the corner and saw an elevator. "****, that must be how the staff get around", James said looking back and forth between the staff room and the elevator. "Hey! Who's down there?!", we heard an unfamiliar voice shout. I froze... it was a guard.

   "RUN!!!!", Jai screamed and we took off. We ran down the stairs so fast I think I more so fell down them. I could feel my heart beat. We ran the length of the corridor towards the cell. "C'mon" boys!" Luke yelled holding the door open as we all rushed in. He shut the door tight behind us and slid down the cold, metal door. James and Jai had their hands on their chests and breathed heavily. Beau stood in the middle of the room, smiling like the excited, little Dorito he is. "What?", I ask sitting on the floor next to James. Beau ran his hand through his hair "Phase One: Completed".
