Female Warrior [COMPLETED]

Chapter 10

Atlas: After I was just told by Warden Cooper that I would be leaving for a mission, I try to contain my excitement the best I can. Because I've always wanted to know how the outside was like. I rush to my room and get a few things, then I head to the Weaponry Room where I get a whip because that's all I need. "Should probably say bye to the guys..." I walk out of the room and head to the Gym where the guys are typically at. Once I get there all the guys give me confused looks by the whip and backpack. "As you guys know Ava escaped and the Warden asked yours truly to go hunt her down and get her back." "That's all you're bringing," a guy in the back says. "Don't worry I have two more guns to back me up." I show off my cockiness by flexing both of my biceps, showing off my muscles and all the guys cheer and laugh from what I just did. "I won't be gone long. She couldn't have gotten far and plus someone probably killed her by now." I shrug and all the guys look around at each other agreeing. I open up my arms, "come on guys bro-hug one last time?" We all do a big bro-hug off and one at a time they wish me good luck when I leave. Once that's over I get escorted by a guard to the top of the Penitentiary to prepare me for my leaving. I walk to the exit, glancing around at the place one more time before I go. I approach the steps with a guard and another one comes up to me.

Guard: "Here" You see me holding four syringes with a suspicious blue liquid.

Atlas: I look at it confused. "What is it?"

Guard: "We give it to those who leave here. Over time the air out there got contaminated and the air we breathe in here is filtered. After a while, if you start to feel sick it's because of the air. Every few times inject yourself with this and you should be fine for as long as you're out there. If you don't take it then you'll start to slowly die. Got it?"

Atlas: I nod understanding what he tells me. I take the four syringes and put them in my bag. The guy nods and instructs his guys to open it up. I take a deep breath and start to head up the steps slowly. The instant it opens all the way I rush out and close it after from what the guard told me about the air, and I don't want anybody getting sick if I leave it open for too long. I'm out and I look around to take in the view. "So this is what it looks like out here? Was hoping it would look more like a utopia..." I look down at the ground and find shoe print in the mud with some drops of blood not too far from it; instantly remembering hearing the guards shooting, so I know now that she's wounded. "Here I come Ava," I say before taking off and following the footprints and drops of blood.
