After we are done working out we walk down to the shared showers. When we are done showering we both walked back to our cell side by side.
"Ugh, my legs are killing me." I say as I rub my thighs
"I know right?" my cellmate agrees
"This place sucks, we should escape someday" I reply with a smirk
"I'm in on that. Don't leave without me, okay?" they say smiling back at me
"I promise." I say
"Really?" they exclaim
"Yeah, definitely." I say in full seriousness
"Good." they huff while sitting on the ground next to their bed and stretching their legs.
I shut my eyes and smile to myself. I'm keeping that promise no matter what. I think to myself as I dose off.
"Hey! Hey! we got to go! Now!" my cellmate yells as they shake me awake
"What? Why?" I ask as I get out of bed and run down the long hallway towards the arena.
When we walk in there is a huge hole in the wall and guards trying to hold back all the kids trying to escape.
"We can sneak through." my cellmate says
"Can we?" I ask confused
"Yes, now come on." they say as we run over and slide under the guards' legs. I make it trough but they get grabbed. I see an opening in the wall of guards and I catch their eye and they slide through. Before anyone sees us we climb out of the hole in the wall and land on the grassy floor of a forest.
"I can't believe we're free." I smile and grab my cellmate into a giant bear hug.
"I know but we should get as far away from here as we can" they say as we start to run through the trees dodging vines and rocks and roots. We ran side by side making a silent agreement to not let the other out of our sight.
