Female Warrior [COMPLETED]

Chapter 8

*Back at the Penitentiary*

Lucas: Ava just left and I smirk feeling happy for her. I close my laptop and walk out my room and see all the students walking out their rooms, confused on what's going on, and guards, panicking about what just happened. "Just act surprised...and not like you just helped someone escape...and hacked into the system," I say to myself quietly. As I'm walking around I overhear some kids saying, "Who do you think it is? You think they had help? Why did they leave?" and I can't help but laugh inside as I hear this. After a few minutes, almost all the kids are in the cafeteria still talking about what happened. I'm sitting at me and Ava's table and it honestly feels weird without her sitting across me. "Looks like it's time to make a new friend...ew." All of a sudden it goes quiet and a couple of guards come marching in and everyone moves out of the way.

Guard: "Attention, everyone! We are looking for, Lucas Johnson. If you know where he is please tell us, however, if he's in here right now please come forward!"

Lucas: Everyone slowly and awkwardly looks at me. Great...now y'all know who I am. I stand up slowly and look around at everyone staring at me. Now I can either make a run for it, but I'll probably look guilty or just go up to them and put on my best poker face. Think I'm gonna go with option 2. I start walking up slowly, once I get up to them one of the guards puts my hands behind my back and slaps on some cold, tight handcuffs. Jeez at least buy me dinner first...it's a little kinky. Alright, Lucas stop now is not the time to joke around. I walk out with the guards, some in the front of me and some in the back. We make our way to the elevators that Ava was just recently in, man do I miss her so much already. As we go up in the elevator I get a little nervous about what's about to happen and why they need me. We get to the top and I see everything is more high tech than the lower levels as I see it in person. We take a few turns and approach these big grand doors, they open it, and we walk in. As I'm looking around the room I realize that I'm in the Warden's office. We stop and the guards behind me take the cuffs off. All the guards move away from me, revealing me and stand up against the wall. The Warden turns around in his chair like a movie villain, but the only thing that he's missing is a cat to pet while he turned around.

Warden Cooper: "Lucas! It's so nice to meet you!" I get up from my seat, walk over, and hug Lucas.

Lucas: I awkwardly hug him back.

Warden Cooper: "You know who I am, right? Well, you have to know, if you didn't then I would have to kill ya." I laugh jokingly.

Lucas: Guessing that was supposed to be funny. "Haha..."

Warden Cooper: I sit on the edge of my desk and look Lucas in the eyes. "You know why you're here right? The girl escaping...Ava Singh. You know she was the one who escaped...right?"

Lucas: "Uhh...no and no. I did not know that." Oh shit, here we go.

Warden Cooper: I chuckle. "Okay. Aren't you two friends...best friends? She didn't tell you anything? Telling you she wanted to leave or anything like that?"

Lucas: "Nope...we really didn't talk about that kind of stuff."

Warden Cooper: "Hm. Then how come one of my guards comes and tells me that you tricked him into coming into her room then you two both knock him out? We have the blood on his head and the blood in her room to prove it."

Lucas: "Well..he could be lying. He could've done it to himself." I shrug.

Warden Cooper: I stand up and laugh. "You're a good actor Lucas...but you're not that good." I walk up to him slowly. "Sadly I can't just let you go until you confess. So you're gonna take a special trip to the basement, where you'll get interrogated." I look at the guards and nod my head, meaning to take him away. "Oh and also you guys if he doesn't give in, in about an hour...feel free to try torture."

Lucas: I try not to freak out or lose my cool. They take my hands again and put them back in the handcuffs. "Rot in hell!" I say as the guards yank me back, taking me away.

Warden Cooper: "I vacation there." I smirk. I sigh and go back around my desk and press the intercom button talking to everyone in the Penitentiary. "Hello everyone, as you may know, someone has escaped and that someone is, Ava Singh. Don't worry we are handling the problem as we speak. There's no need to keep talking about it, everyone resume back to what you were doing and don't even think about pulling a stunt like she did. If you try or if we even hear you talking about escaping, you will be executed on the spot. Thank you and have a wonderful day." As I finish a guard comes in.

Guard: "Sir, the other boy you wanted is here."

Warden Cooper: "Well bring him in here!" I sit back on the other side of the desk and walking in is, Atlas Myers. "Atlas, hey! How are you doing?"

Atlas: "I'm doing pretty good sir. It's so nice to finally meet you." I say as I shake his hand.

Warden Cooper: " As you know, Ava Singh has escaped and as you also know you're the best of the best in here. I need you to use your skills and what you've learned to hunt down Ava. I could send my guards but the only good they're for is for guarding. Now you can either bring her back dead or alive. I couldn't care less but the people in here need an example of what would happen if any of them successfully escaped or even tried to. So what do you say? Will you do it?"

Atlas: "It would be an honor, sir. I will not let you down."

Warden Cooper: "I know you won't. Now go pack up whatever you need and whatever gear you need to leave. You leave in half an hour." He bows and walks off. I walk to the other side of the office and sit in my chair. I laugh evilly as everything will go into place and that I'll win...like always.
