Chapter 17

Chapter 17 - Escape Again

Once locked in, Carlo curled up into a ball, his backpack not taken with his green spray can hidden in Carlo's backpack. He kept crying, curled up into a ball with nothing to hold onto but himself. His backpack was hanging on the outside wall of his cell, the spray can inside it. His friends we're also in cells, still unconscious. A guard was standing at Carlo's only exit.

"W-What do I do... what do I do... " Carlo muttered. He saw Sub's body move, as he slowly woke up.

"S-Sub! Oh god S-Sub!" Carlo cried.

"C-Carlo? W-Where are we?" Sub asked weakly.

"The people who tied us down put us in jail..."

"I-I- what!? Prison?!" Sub looked through his pockets, noticing his computer chips were missing.

"O-Oh no... my computer chips are gone! Without those files... I-I can't defend myself... I-I'm useless without them."

"Sub i-it's okay... I think I may have a way... I've escaped my old prison before, I guess I can do it here to... can you trust me on this part though?"

"A-Anything to get out of here, yes."

...

Sub nodded, as he closed his eyes and chopped his hand off. Guiding his remnants of his hand, he used the remaining pixels to carry Carlo's backpack to his cell by squeezing it in the jail bars.

"Thanks, Sub. I'll get us out..." Carlo thanked, taking off his jacket and gave it to Sub, who's pixels were waiting. The pixels were guided to pass the guard swiftly, and was easily distracted as he ran, following the pixels.

"Alright... there has got to be a paperclip somewhere!" Carlo said.

"May I help you with that?" A new voice said, next to Sub's cell.

"Jorge! Glad you're awake." Carlo said happily.

"Glad to not be dead. If you need a paperclip, I somehow have one in my cell." Jorge grinned, throwing a paperclip to Carlo's cell.

"Hey... what's with the paperclip anyway?"

"Ah... nothing important. Just to get us out of this prison!"

"I like that!"

Carlo ran to his cell door and found the lock, picking the lock with the paperclip.

"Hm... I didn't know you could pick locks, Carlo." Sub said with curiosity.

"I actually have picked locks in my free time back at the adoption center... and when I mean that I mean I picked my friends' door to see her stuff."

"...Okay then."

The lock was opened, and Carlo opened his door. Instantly after, a dog was running down to the entrance, Carlo instantly having to close the door to save himself.

"Oh god... we need to distract it with something." Jorge sighed, trying to lure the dog away. Then, a small beam of light hit the dog's eye, and had caught the beams reaction. The beam kept moving until it had started going up the stairs, assuming it had caught the light. Carlo looked down the halls, seeing Tyler with his glasses hitting a beam of light. His cell was right next to his.

"Tyler! Nice job." Sub said, his other hand with a thumbs up. "Need some info?"

"Uh, yeah? Distraction for a dog? Easy. Now get is out of here, Carlo." Tyler responded, as Sub explained the plan to escape. Carlo instantly ran to Sub's cell, then Jorge's, then Tyler's. Finally, he went to Chris' cell, but mid pick locking a guard had come up behind Carlo and gripped his arms. The dog had came back and had attacked Tyler while Sub's pixels had returned, but were restrained due to another guard taking them down, along with his computer chips. Jorge was cornered with another guard, their weapons out.

"We need to do something to get them off of us!" Sub exclaimed.

"No shit Sherlock! What do we do?!" Tyler screamed, trying to kick away the dog.

'There has to be a way to stop them... maybe to blind them when we can get time...'

Then it had hit him.

...

"WHOA DUDE! Spray paint has chemicals that can burn eyes out! What are you, crazy!?" Chris exclaimed, ducking.

"Yes I am!" Jorge smiled.

...

"Everyone! Get your spray cans out!" Carlo yelped.

"But why!?" Jorge said.

"Remember what Jorge said when we first met! He sprayed something from the quote wall that nearly burned our eyes out!"

Tyler pushed the dog away as he grabbed his dark red spray can as he sprayed the dog's eyes out, the dog then running away into a wall.

"Good boy!" Tyler smirked.

Sub used his pixels to slap the guard away as he used his other hand and sprayed the guards eyes, leading him to fall on his knees. The computer chips started flying as Sub grabbed them all in his palms.

"That's more like it." Sub grinned.

Jorge slid under one of the guards legs as he took out his dark blue spray can and had used it to take out the eyes of him. The other one had already ran away, retreating and not wanting to get hurt.

"Can't detain me anymore." Jorge smiled.

Carlo tried to kick him away, but was not able too as his arms were pinned behind his back. He cried in pain, as he heard a new voice cry for battle.

"Get away from my BROTHER!" Chris exclaimed, spraying a shade of light blue spray paint in his eyes.

"Chris!" Everyone chimed, seeing Chris awake.

"Hey! Glad I made it... now... let's get out of here.

...

Long ass chapter amirite? I was actually motivated to write this chapter because

1) its based of carlito
2) the title "escape again" is somewhat of a reprise to carlo's first chapter "escape"
3) carlo needs luv

Also last chapter you may have noticed someone in the cast that is not minor but plays a good role in this. Other characters will also be added as well along the way, but this is just the start!

Ciao!
