Roman's POV

"No, no, no, no, no! Why would he do that?" "He has ended many lives to save one. Anxiety is simply portraying the emotion, guilt. He believes that he deserves to die so he figuratively took matters into his own hands." Patton lifted his head from his hands, "There has to be something we can do! We can't just let him die!" The room became silent as we all tried to think of a way to stop Anxiety from being killed.

Many bad ideas later

"What if we bribed the judge with sweets?" Logan let out an exasperated sigh, "Yes, let us BRIBE a man of law with cookies. This will end well. We absolutely won't be thrown in jail." I chuckled despite myself. "Did the all knowledgeable and serious Logan just use sarcasm??? What has this world come to?" Patton giggles while Logan's face flushed, "Can we get back to the topic at hand please?" We both nodded and continued to try think of ways to help Anxiety. "OH, I GOT IT!" I cried and jumped to my feet, starting Logan and Patton. "All we have to do, is break him out of jail!"

"...............du bist ein idiot." "I don't know what you said but it sounded mean so I'm going to act offended." I then gasped dramatically and placed a hand over my chest. Logan shook is head, "We can't break Virgil out of jail. That's stupid, illogical, I figured out away to do it, did I mention this was stupid." Patton bounced in his chair excitedly, "We're going to get Virgil out! YAY!"

Logan stood up and began pacing the room. "The execution is in six days. We got a lot of work to do."

Virgil's POV

The next four days were a blear. The only people I saw were guards and the food people. I think I might be going crazy because I keep seeing Patton, Logan, and Roman as either a guard or a food person.

I couldn't eat, even if I wanted to. They had put these shackles over my hands, completely covering them. Guess no one wanted me to use me powers.

On the fifth day, I lay on my bunk and stared off into space. "Oi! Get up, you've got a visitor." I looked over to my cell door where a guard stood. I got to my feet and walked to the back wall, it's a thing they make us do whenever someone comes into our cells.

We walked down the long, winding hallways before reaching a secure room. The door was opened and there was, "hey charming." Roman looked up from the table and rushed over to hug me. We sat down and began talking. Just the simple, 'how's it going? How you been?' kind of stuff.

"Roman, I need to ask you something." He nodded his head, signaling for me to continue, "Why did you say it? Why did you say everything you did?" I needed to know, the recording was Roman's voice. "I don't know. I was saying the exact opposite but the words that came out my mouth weren't mine. You have to believe me!" I slowly nodded, "I know what Deceit can do."

Suddenly the wall behind Roman exploded and an armored van broke through the wall. The prison sirens went off, people were yelling at one another, and I was terrified because Roman had disappeared in the dust. I looked towards the van to see the door open and Roman leaning out of said van reaching for me.

"Get in loser, we're going shopping!" I laughed and took his hand. The van pulled away and we were out of the prison.
