A/L- Hey everyone, here's chapter two of my prison Skins fic. As you all know we still have more characters to be introduced to and in this chapter only a slim number are introduced. We get more people in the chapter after this.

reddawg82- *hands out a chocolate cake* Well babes, you know some of what I have planned, but not all so I look forward to surprising you at some point.

two hands two feet- *hands out a chocolate cake* I'm happy you're enjoying it already and I will endeavor to keep it up.

"I'll start by showing you the nicer stuff before showing you the common area."

"The common area isn't nice?"

Franky asked in interest as she followed the taller girl.

"Nah, it's ok. I just said nicer places. Common area's an ok place. We'll start with the library."

Mini stated as she reached a door sign posted 'Library.

"Come on in."

Mini stated as she pushed the door open and waved Franky inside, the girl entered, hearing Mini come in after her. The library wasn't anything to write home about, just a large room with a number of bookshelves with books on them, to one side a counter was situated and a dark skinned woman was situated behind it. The woman looked up and smiled.

"Mini, nice to see you again, and who's this? A new inmate?"

Mini nodded.

"Yeah, this is Franky. Franky, this Jal our librarian. She pretty cool."

Jal let out a laugh and shook her head.

"She always says that, nice to meet you Franky. I hope you use this place, Mini and Effy are the only ones that do really."

"Well we better be going Jal, plenty to show Franky."

Mini said quickly, causing Franky to frown slightly, wondering what the hurry was. She soon found herself steered out of the room, shouting a quick good-bye to Jal.

"What's the rush?"

"No reason really, come on the gym's this way."

Over the next half hour or so Mini took Franky round the whole of the prison that she was allowed to go in, she met Maxxie, who was in charge of the gym and any recreational activities, and who was quite obviously gay. She was shown the door to the security room where Franky spied a guy with glasses and a beanie hat resting on his head. Mini had said that his name was Sid and was the prison boffin. There was a garden outside which Mini said was tended to by the inmates but supervised by a woman called Pandora Moon but who everyone called Panda, apparently she was an ex-inmate.

"So, this is it Franky. This is where you'll spend your nights."

Franky stepped into the cell and looked round it, it was what she had expected to be honest; bare and basic. She looked at the bed and saw it was a bunk bed, she turned back to Mini, a question on her lips.

"You're sharing with me, I'm the top bunk. It'll be good to have a roommate again, not had one since Mandy."

"What happened to her? She get released?"

Franky asked, regretting asking as she saw Mini wince slightly.

"Not exactly. She died Franky."

"D-Died?"

"Yeah, not in a nice way either. Cook discovered the body, made him throw up."

Franky paled, James Cook had seemed like a boulder from the brief time she'd spent in his presence.

"Oh."

She said faintly.

"listen, don't worry. Mandy did some pretty stupid shit, pissed off a few people in here. Long as you don't you'll be fine."

Franky nodded, trying to look more confident then she felt.

"Come on, I'll show you the common area."

The common area was big, there were three levels of walkways all along the sides, on the third floor was a large window which Franky recognised as being the one from Campbell's offices. On the same wall there was also the guard's station, this time on the ground floor. The actual area was rather basic with just a number of tables bolted to the floor all around. Mini ushered Franky to one particular table where a half-caste girl was sat. She looked up as Mini and Franky reached them and smiled.

"Hey Mins, so this where you been, fresh meat eh?"

Franky swallowed in fright causing Mini and the girl to laugh.

"Franky, don't worry bout her. She's just messing with ya. This is Grace, although she likes to be known by her rocker name Sub Rosa."

"Call me Sub."

Grace smiled sweetly at Franky and she found herself smiling back, finding it hard to imagine how this sweet looking girl had found herself here.

"Don't be taken in by her Franky, she may seem all sweet and shit. Hell she was back when we went to school together, but she's in here for shanking her boyfriend."

Sub shrugged, indifference on her face.

"What can I say, the cunt forgot our anniversary."

Franky must of looked shocked because Grace and Mini laughed again.

"What are you in for Mini?"

Franky asked.

"Armed robbery and manslaughter. What about you Franky?"

Franky glanced at the two before sighing.

"Grievous bodily harm and grand theft."

"Is that where you got your..?"

Grace indicated the scar Franky wore on her cheek, Franky shook her head.

"The scar's from a gang fight I was in."

"Ooooh, looks like there's more to little Franky then meets the eye."

Sub teased, smirking at Mini.

"So, Franky, you've already met Cook, the guy in charge of the guards during the day shift, and Tony who is one of the day guards. The rest are pretty boring to be honest, nothing write home about. It's at night that the guards get interesting."

Mini said, leaning forwards slightly, a nasty smile on her face.

"Head of the guards then is a woman called Abigail Stock and ain't someone you want to get on the bad side of Franky. She and her fucking 'second-in-command' Sophia Moore are bad shit.

Franky opened her mouth to speak when she felt the hairs on the back of her neck stand up. She look round wildly, finally searching the walkways at the top and seeing a woman, nearly invisible due to the shadows, staring down at her.

"Mini, who's that?"

Franky asked, indicating with her head the girl. Both Mini and Sub stiffened slightly and Mini grew even paler then she already was.

"That's…That's Effy."

"Why's she staring at me?"

Mini shrugged.

"You're new, what do you expect."

Franky dragged her gaze from Effy and back to the two girls at her table and saw that they both looked shaken.

"What is it about Effy that's got you all freaked out?"

Franky asked and Mini opened her mouth to reply when a loud sound of laughter came from outside the room.

"They're coming Mins."

Sub stated simply, her eyes darting around.

"Who's coming?"

Franky asked as the sound grew louder and louder, just then there was a bang as a door to the side was slammed open and five inmates stormed into the area.

"Emily and her gang."
