Chapter 2. Breakout

Normal POV
With the keys in hand, the girls snuck out of their dorm and let everyone else that was in on the plan out of theirs.
Only a few guards were still awake. The building was organized into wings. A boys side and a girls side. The girls had a dorm area, 2 office areas for the guards and councilors, a recreational room, a cafeteria, a showers area and a weight room. There were cameras all over the building with monitors that where stationed back at the offices and the main office at the center of the facility as well.
As the girls made their way through the wing they had a girl known as Cameron disable cameras before anything too suspicious could be seen. The 2 guards at post in one of the offices noticed that the camera of the dorm area and weight room had gone black and made their way out of the office towards the area.
The weight room wasn't very big. They entered the room but nobody seemed to be around, little did they know there was a bipolar blonde ready to take her part in the scheme. The gaurds were faced away from where they had entered and Maggie rose from her hiding place behind the towel cart with her hands behind her back.
As she cleared her throat their attention immediately faced the young delinquent.
"What are you doing here, and more importantly, why are you out of your dorm?" the first guard interrogated.
Maggie responded with a sweet smile. "I'm…creating a distraction." She revealed a bottle of nail polish remover in one hand and a lighter in the other.
Before the two men could process what was going on, Maggie dropped the content onto the floor and lit the fluid. A large fire instantly spread across the floor. The guards backed away at the spreading flames. Maggie took this opportunity to exit the weight room through the door the guards had come in by and locked the door with one of the stolen keys.
The flames had spread to the door and Maggie gave one final wave through the small window.
The guards instantly resorted to the second exit only to find it locked. They pulled out their keys to open the door but found the key whole filled in with gum.
Unfortunately for them, this room didn't have a fire extinguisher in it nor an alarm.
"Call for back up!" They backed as far away from the flames as the room would let them.
The second guard pulled out his radio "Requesting back up. Fire in the weight room! Fire in the weight room! And a girl is out of her dorm!"
The guards stationed at the office near the rec room shot up at the message. With an extinguisher in hand, 2 of them made their way towards the area one way while the other two made their way around the alternate path that went through the girls dorms. Both pairs had their eyes out for the girl who was out and about.
Maggie raced down the hallway away from the weight room and came to the office where the 2 guards from earlier had been stationed. There she hid until the reinforcements passed by to aid the two in the fire.
Once there, the one with the extinguisher opened the door and the flames were released. He instantly began spraying the flames.
"I've got this, you go search for the girl." With that said, the second guard began his search in the direction of the nearby office.
Meanwhile, 2 of the guards entered the girl's dorm hallway. Their shadows could be seen on the floor thanks to the moon light shining in from the window. Waiting at two of the rooms were the rest of the delinquent girls. As soon as the guards stood next to the doors, Tristan and Vanessa knocked them both out by using two of the weights from the weight room. They fell instantly and the mass of girls made their way towards the rec room where they would set up the next part of the process.
The officers at the main office of the detention center noticed yet another camera go out on the girl's wing. Two of the 3 officers made their way towards the girl's wing, their bats and tazers in hand.
As half of the girls were barricading the hallway which connected the councilor's dorm hallway toward the rec room, the other half headed toward Maggie's direction.
Maggie was supposed to stay on this side and wait for Ariel and the others to set up the barrier of the second guard and councilor hallway. She hid under the desk in the office as the guard searched the area. He made his way inside the office and looked around. Her heart was pounding in her chest.
He suspected her to be hiding.
He was about to look under the desk.
Their eyes soon made contact. Thinking fast, Maggie shoved the chair that was pushed into the desk at the guards face, knocking him back.
She shot up to run out the door but her ankles were taken in the hands of the guard which caused her to fall. A huge struggle began and Maggie was slowly being subdued.
Ariel and the rest of the girls came to the halls where they would begin the next process.
"You guys start on the hallway. I'm going to find Maggie." They nodded and split up.
Luckily, Ariel had a tazer in hand she had stolen from the first two guards Vanessa and Tristan had knocked out.
Up ahead, Ariel heard yelling. She arrived at the office where Maggie was struggling with the guard who was finally able to hold her arms behind her back and held her face to the floor. He was soon faced with Ariel rushing in and punching him across the face. He stumbled back against the wall with his nose bleeding.
Ariel helped Maggie up and upon noticing there was two of them out now, he assumed the worst and hit the alarm beside him on the wall. The girls were expecting this to happen.
….Its now time to get out of the building.
The two officers who had previously been walking towards the girls wing from the main office now began running there at hearing the loud rings. The alarm would call to action a back up of officers from the boys wing as well.
The guard now lunged himself at Ariel and a bruised Maggie with his bat in hand, but Ariel brought out the tazer and struck him in the neck before the bat could make contact with her head. He was instantly taken into an electrical frenzy and collapsed to the ground.
The two needed the get back with the others.
"Well as long as we're already on the run…" Maggie turned on the radio in the office as well as the P.A system. The song Blow by Kesha began to ring through out the girl's wing.
"Nice." The two best friends now shot back in the direction of the other girls barricading the second hallway.
Meanwhile, they had been spreading nail polish through out the 2nd guard and councilor hallway. They knew someone would get the alarm eventually and so they had to cover their bases by keeping the guards and councilors off duty back. There was no furniture around this side like there was by the rec room and so they planed to light it on fire.
Just as the girls were about to finish up, the alarm went off. Any second now the sleeping guards and councilors were going to shoot out their doors. Maggie was the one with the lighter, faced with no choice but to retreat, they began running in the opposite direction. Just as the guards and councilors began to open their doors, the song Blow began to play over the alarms still going off. They noticed a mass of girls running towards the end of the hallway. They were about to shoot after them but right at that moment, Maggie and Ariel arrived and Maggie lit the floor with her lighter. The flames began to shoot down the long hallway towards the several rooms and those who had stepped out soon shot back into their rooms to escape the fire.
The girls back on the side of the rec room had accomplished in barricading the hallways with as much furniture as possible right as the alarms and song went off.
The two groups of girls would now meet up at the area that led towards the main office. They had managed to unlock all the doors that had been shut for the night thanks to the stolen keys. Once reunited the two officers from the main office were no match for the 35 or so girls, however their back up was only seconds away. The two officers were subdued and they all sprinted towards the main entrance.
The man left at the front office was shocked to find a large mass of girls had escaped and radioed the other officers coming from the opposite wing that there was a mass break out attempt at the main entrance.
The girls paid no mind to the man left there for there was nothing he could do against their numbers.
They used their one final key to open the main door and they could now see the parking lot and street. It was everyman, or girl, for themselves now.
As all the girls now ran in their own directions, a flood of guards was now after them and the nearby police station had been notified.
Sirens were heard from every direction and patrol cars hit the streets.
The mass of girls was now scattered across the streets of the town and nearby neighborhoods.
~…..~…..~….~…..~…~….~
"We did it!" they got away.
Tristan, Vanessa, Ariel and Maggie had managed to find each other and were now running together through the streets and into a back alley of some local shops. Sirens could still be heard nearby. The girls weren't in their orange jumpsuits anymore which would make it easier to blend in, however; this meant they were left in their sleep wear and a sweatshirt.
No flashing lights seemed to be around so they came to a rest. They were all panting.
"Some girls did get caught." Vanessa heaved.
"They'll be looking for us. They know what we look like." Tristan coughed. "We need to stay hidden then get far away from this area."
"I can't believe how lucky we got." Maggie attempted to catch her breath.
My hands were resting on my knees and I was trying to control my breathing.
There was no one around. Its time to keep moving.
One of the sirens suddenly sounded much closer.
They all faced towards the direction they had run from and a patrol car and their flashing light then came into sight.
"SHIT!" They all chorused.
"Don't move!" The police yelled to them over their sound system but the girls automatically zoomed in the opposite direction.
They were coming up to a dead end but they were desperate to get away.
"Hop the fence!" Ariel yelled and the four friends grabbed onto the metal wiring.
Each one managed to haul themselves over the fence and were once again on the run. The car was unable to continue its chase.
They felt they were practically home free, but the luck they had tonight diminished along with their last bit of hope as two more patrol cars screeched to a halt ahead of them, blocking their path.
The four young girls had no choice but to stop.
The two cars closed in on them slowly and the police officers stepped out.
"Put your hands up!"
With looks of pure defeat, they obliged.
Well that didn't quite go according to plan. What will happen to them next? Something like this comes with drastic consequences, but maybe there's hope? ;)
I NOW I NOW. The Kesha song playing was pretty random but hey it helped inspire the break out (which was really hard to plan out and write O.O) Anway...
Let me know what you think
