She had heard the sounds from down the hall. Lifting her head in horror, she was sure someone was dead. Relief washed over her as later she watched a woman heading down the hallway quickly. It wasnt her appearance that caught her attention the most. It was the sound. The clicking. She had heard it before. It was the woman from before. Jinx leapt to her feet and pressed her face to the glass trying to watch her. A passing guard smashed his hand into the glass yelling at her, Back off! It startled her more than anything. Im sorry. I was just.. Shut up! I dont care! Step away from the glass! She nodded backing away, her eyes flinting down to his weapon. Mean man. You and your big, scary gun. You wouldnt be so big and bad if it would go off, would you? If your gun would just fire one shot, you wouldnt be so bad huh? Just one shot, and you would.. The gun fired shocking her and the guard. He quickly checked his weapon before stepping away. Did I do that? Did I.get a grip. You cant do that. Youll get in trouble. Jinx began to pace back and forth in her cell. Stupid place. I dont wanna be here. I wanna go home. Home. Home. Home, she thought, clicking her heels together. It was worth a shot. I mean a try! It was worth a try. Dont ever think the word shot again. No. I did it again! Shaking her head, her pace quickened. I wonder if mom and dad are okay. What about grandmother? I have to get out of here and go check on them, but I cant. These stupid doors are locked. Glancing up at the door she whispered, Open sesame. Release. Open. Access granted. She grew frustrated with each try. Lock unlock, she finally called out, louder than anything else she had said. The sounds of the locks clicking open could be heard, and her face shattered into disbelief. I did it. I did it. Stepping closer she pulled the door open. I did it. Her expression fell. Oh no. I did it. I really did it. Im gonna be in so much trouble. No. No. No. No. She pushed the door closed again. Lock lock. Door lock. No access. No access. Oh man oh man oh man. I cant get it to lock back. Did I break the door? No. No. No. I.broke the door. Its open. Jinx began to realize that she could leave. She could try and get out of here and find her family again. Quietly she pushed the door open and carefully looked the down the hall. It was clear. She was sure she didnt want to go in the direction the woman had traveled to. She might spot her and put her back in her cell. Her only other option was to travel in the direction she had heard the sounds coming from. Swallowing hard she stepped from her cell and began to move down the hall. There were other cells. Some had people in them. Some were empty. She happened on a cell with a blonde woman inside. She ducked back out of sight as she saw there was a man inside with her. Crap. What do I do? Do I go back towards the woman, or do I just keep going? Jinx glanced back down the hall in the direction the woman had gone. No. I might run into her. If I go this way, that man in there might not see me. Even if he does, hes in the cell. She nodded, thinking that making a run for it might be her best bet, and so she dashed down the hall towards the door at the end of it. The door at the end of the hall that she saw had Fire Escape on it. It cant be locked. Thats against the law. As she pushed it though, Jinx quickly found out that she was wrong. What? Locked? No way. Lock Unlock. The door gave, and she disappeared inside the barely lit stairwell. Without hesitation she headed up, opening the door that was labeled Cell Block A. Lock Unlock. The door gave just as easily as the other two had, and Jinx stepped out. She wasnt sure if she was in the same building at first. You gotta be kidding me. This place looks so.different. The sounds from the gardens made her stop for a moment, but growing up on a farm Jinx knew the smell was different. Fresh air. Still she could see the light. Curious as she was, it was something else that drew her attention away. Sniffing the air, she followed her nose into the cafeteria. I smell.bananas. Upon exploring the cafeteria, she found a faucet that she quickly turned on and began to drink heavily from it. The water was cold and refreshing, but once she spotted the bananas, she turned it off and began to peel one. Food. Real food. Stuffing her mouth full, she tried to remember the last time she had eaten anything. It had been a while. Everything about this place seemed fake to her, but the goodness of the banana filling her belly wasnt. I have to find glass or a doo leading outside. If I do that, I can make the glass disappear or unlock the door. Then I can go check on my family. Tossing the banana peel into the trash can, she smiled grabbing another one. Right after I get some food in my stomach. Im hungry.
