"That was nice of her to stop by twice in two days." mysterious voice
"I guess."
Senithan glanced towards the hole in the wall.
"Welp, I bet she's happy that her husband wasn't placed all the way down in the Carbon Zone."
"Her husband?" Senithan asked.
"You, of course. Telling by how much she visits you it's only logical." mysterious voice
"I'm not her husband! She only visited me twice how does that make me her husband!"
Senithan alarmed and slightly flustered said.
"Come on, chill out. It was only a joke, don't forget I was in the cell watching as she literally pulled your unconscious body into your cell." mysterious voice
"Oh yeah. But anyways you mentioned something, the Carbon Zone, is that like a bad place to be in I mean telling by the way you said it I'm guessing it is a bad place."
Senithan said.
"Bad, huh. That would be an understatement. The Carbon Zone or should I call it the ground level of the prison where only four prisoners are held despite the fact there are 20 cells down there just like all the floors above." Mysterious voice
"And that's because the four people who have ventilations down there have blocked it off completely meaning anyone sent down there is immediately a goner after an hour or two."
"It's name the Carbon Zone is quite the simplistic one, it's because there's almost no air in the cells and almost completely carbon dioxide, and people can't really breathe that in for unless they want to die."
the mysterious voice explained in detail.
"The thing is the guards know that and when countless new batches of prisoners are sent in bulk they purposefully put them in the Carbon Zone and let them die which is also why the first floor is almost always filled with dead bodies of prisoners."
"All in all the Carbon Zone is the last place you'd want to be in."
the mysterious voice ended.
"Oh."
Senithan fell back a little because of his imagination of all the gruesome sights on the ground level that the mysterious person had explained and also at the true credulity this place holds.
"Hey that's like the worst part of this prison so don't worry."
the mysterious voice attempted to comfort him.
"I hope so. This place is bad enough and I don't even belong nor deserve to be here."
Senithan lowered his head and said.
"Come on man. I've heard tens of not hundreds of people say those exact words but in the end they did deserve to be here. Oh, but they're all long dead by now." mysterious voice
"That's how this cruel prison works. Plus, I haven't even told you about the corrupt guards, illegal trade and downright disgusting things that go on between the inmates or the prisoner and guards. But don't worry about all that stuff."
the voice who I guess I shouldn't call mysterious anymore heckled and laughed slightly whilst saying due to the how long he'd been there and how many of these incidents he's seen.
"I'm starting to worry the more you keep on telling me."
Senithan started to get up and approach his bed to sleep.
"Don't worry. You arrived at exactly the right time, the escape that's been maiticuasly planned by the previous generation of prisoners and this generation is already in full swing."
Senithan listened with all ears.
"Only problem being is that your arrival brought that girl who is clearly stronger that 20 of those guards combined to this facility quite frequently, but I'm guessing since she isn't your girlfriend she won't have any other reason to come here for the next couple months or weeks so the plans back on the road. I'm not leading it, only following it. "
The voice sarcastically said in a way that seemed as if he'd already been caught by guards before the plan even began.
"If your not leading it then who is?"
Senithan looked at the wall as if he was looking at the man or girl on the other side.
"Who else would be crazy enough than those heartless killers down on ground level. Those Carbon Zone bastards."
The voice was clearly smiling as he spoke.
"Are the people down at the Carbon Zone really that powerful they'd attempt to escape?"
Senithan asked with slight shock.
"Powerful, no. They're cunning, and slightly suicidal. They plan to disable the mirror doors keeping us all lock by hitting the motherboard of this whole place which will vice versa cause the security outside to similar disable allowing the prisoners to riot their way out. Then using a secret someone they plan to blow a hole in the back of the prison and flood out through there."
The voice in a slow, fatigue-felt manner explained the situation.
"How are they going to get into the motherboard, isn't it highly secured."
Senithan raised his eyebrow despite the fact he/she couldn't see it.
"Didn't I tell you. The 'disgusting' things that go on between the prisoners and guards..that's how."
the voice shifted around a little before settling in.
"Uhg. Ok. Then I guess it'll work then." Senithan thought and agreed the plan had quite the high success rate.
"Yea, that's why I'm following, not leading. Been there done that and it isn't so pretty."
The voice shifted once again before saying.
"I'ma get some rest."
Hearing what the voice had said Senithan decided he'd get some rest too and walked back to his bed but not before asking one last question.
"When is this escape plan going to happen?"
"In about 2-3 weeks or so."
*****
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to-
A right hook was thrown straight towards Senithan's face at a speed his mind couldn't even keep up with and within the next moment he was on the ground with blood rising from his throat and a knocked out tooth.
The crowd around him murmured and watched as Senithan curled up into a ball and took countless more kicks from the jacked man before the man finally walked away but not before spitting on Senithan beat up body.
Senithan was too weak and he knew that better than anyone else.
