I was in the yard, and I was beginning to realise what T-Bag said when there was a war coming. Blacks and Whites were becoming separated, this did not bode well for me. Whether the inmates knew it or not I was the most vulnerable person in here and if a fight broke out I wouldn't last very long. No matter how well I could protect myself, I simply lacked the strength.

I had made a friend in Charles Westmorland, we were sitting at a table, when Scofield turned up. I took this as my queue to leave.

"See you later Charles" I walked over to the bleachers but didn't sit, I didn't want a replay of my first day.

I watched some white men try to go to the weights, but they were forced away. This was not good for me at all.


I was back in my cell, when I scraped my finger on a piece of metal.

"Great, this is just great" I muttered to myself, I walked over to the sink and turned the tap on. Except that it wouldn't turn on.

"What the-" I turned when I heard shouting and C.O's seemed to be searching people's cells. Well I wasn't too worried, I had nothing to hide.

Seemed like my neighbours did though. I saw the Warden, Bellick and a few other guards outside my cell, talking to Scofield and the Latino.

Pope smiled at me, but then looked away as his attention had been caught.

"Is there a problem here deputy?" He says walking closer.

I tuned their conversation out as someone came and searched my cell motioning for me to wait outside.

As I did so I saw Scofield staring at the Warden.

"Your not a good liar. Come on Sucre your going to the SHU" Sucre walks past me, and I turn and watch the guard check my cell.

I looked back in time to hear Bellick say "You're in the old man's back pocket aren't you. Well let me tell you something, he may run this place during the day. But I run it during the night"

I bit my lip and wondered what Scofield had done to get on Bellick's bad side. I looked up to see Abruzzi staring at me, when I caught his gaze he nodded. I looked down to see T-Bag also staring at me, I couldn't help but feel like they were playing tug-of-war and I was the rope.


After Chapel, I was back in the Yard. I was watching Scofield run his hands over the bleachers, I had absolutely no idea what he was doing and my attention was averted when Abruzzi once again came up to me.

"What do you want now John?" I was getting annoyed at the attention I kept getting from both him and T-Bag. I was supposed to keep it low for the first month or so, well that was according to my plan but apparently my plan isn't working too well for me.

"I don't want anything. I'm just standing here" He tried to look innocent but it wasn't working.

"Seriously?" He sighed.

"Look, I don't think you realise what T-Bag is. He's an animal, he will eat you up and spit you out"

"I appreciate your concern but as I've said before I can take care of myself" He sighed again.

"Ok, but you need help with anything. I got your back" I was quite happy to hear those words, but I was a guy so I had to act like it. So I nodded my head while he walked away.

I watched as T-Bag went up to Scofield with another man hanging on to his pocket. I was quite disgusted by this display, I saw him slap the man's hand away and show his other pocket to Scofield, I don't know why but I was anxious about this.

Scofield then said something that T-Bag didn't like, and Scofield then walked off the bleachers. I let out a breath I didn't even know I was holding.

His eyes flashed to mine, and then away again. The whistle was then blown, and I moved to walk back into Gen-Pop.


Nothing interesting happened until the next day back in the yard.

Scofield was once again on the bleachers, doing something to the bench. From where I was standing I couldn't quite see what. What I did see was T-Bag walking towards him.

I sighed, thinking about all the trouble Scofield had been getting into. But then I had to think to myself, why did I care?

He jumped down and handed T-Bag something. I started to walk towards Westmorland, not wanting to be caught staring at those two.

"Hey Charles, what's up?" I ask as I take the seat next to him. He smiled at me, and continued to pet his cat.

"Nothing much, same as every day" I laughed, it was nice sitting with Charles, he didn't expect every moment to be filled with talking.


It was tier time, and I was sitting on my bunk sketching once again. When I got up to put my book away, I noticed Scofield going into T-Bag's cell. I wondered why the hell anyone would willingly go into his cell.

And then surprise, surprise T-Bag was coming along. I rolled my eyes at the man following closely behind. I leant against the bar on the landing and watched the exchange, when it was over Scofield came back up and leant on the bar next to me. I didn't look but I could tell he was watching me.

When I finally did look over, I saw that he was still looking at me.

"What?" I titled my head to one side. He narrowed his eyes slightly as if he was frustrated.

"Are you friends with T-Bag?" I snorted.

"I would say acquaintances, but that's being generous"

He smirked before looking away, he looked frustrated. I walked back into my cell and sat on the bed. Scofield leant on the bar's of my cell.

"If you asked him to do something would he do it?" He looked straight into my eyes and I felt a bit uncomfortable.

"T-Bag only does something if he gets something in return. And in my case, I'm pretty sure what he wants from me, but I don't want to do that" His interest had apparently been caught.

"What did he want you to do?" I furrowed my eyebrows.

"Him and Abruzzi want me in their 'family' thing, I don't really want to though" He nodded, and then walked away. Thanks for the goodbye dude.


It was shower day, and everyone but me was using the facilities. I had been told to stay out of sight until it was time to get back, so I was wandering around behind the showers. I saw Scofield with the man he was doing business with a few weeks ago.

The man left, with his friends. And Scofield punched the bars, he looked seriously annoyed. I got out of there before he could spot me.


"Head's up Cons. Stand at your gate"

It was count, and I stood in front of my cell watching everyone else. I could almost taste the blood-lust in the air.

One man suddenly stepped forward.

"C-Note get back on your number" I was starting to get worried, so I backed up into my cell and watched the madness unfold.

I saw Scofield go flying over the railing before someone came into my cell. He tried to punch me but I grabbed his wrist and slammed it into the bed. I heard a crunch and pushed him out. I was quite proud to say that no one else came in.

Then I heard T-Bag scream "Scofield!"

I saw smoke can's being dropped, and inmates were trying to avoid it. But over the chaos T-Bag was still clearly heard, screaming "Your a dead man Scofield"


Later that night the Pope came to give us all a visit.

"I don't really know what to say to you gentlemen. I try to give you the benefit of the doubt. I try to treat you with respect. But you can't respect yourselves. So there's going to be a 48 hour lockdown. No showers, no visitations. And I strongly suggest that you all learn how to get along. Otherwise the next time it's going to be a week and the time after that a month. Think about it"

I don't know about anyone else but I am definitely listening to what he says, I mean a month without a shower I am still a girl. And I love hygiene!

I can hear something scraping the floor in the next cell.

"You in there Pretty?" The scraping stopped, as T-Bag's voice carried throughout the prison.

"I know your there" His voice sent shivers down my spine, I sure was glad that I wasn't Scofield at the moment.

"Just want you to know that I'm coming for you. You've got nowhere to run. You're trapped in that little hole of yours. Trapped like a pig that I'm gonna slaughter" Even though that wasn't directed at me, I am actually shit scared.


The next day started out with yard time, I was becoming accustom to my routine I had. Lean on the fence, randomly watch Scofield or any other prisoner for a little while. Get confronted by either T-Bag or Abruzzi, then go talk to Westmorland for a little bit.

Scofield went up to the Infirmary a little while ago, and I couldn't see Abruzzi. As if on queue T-Bag leaned against the fence next to me.

"I don't think you understand what I've been offering you"

"And what exactly is that?" I looked at him, and he once again held the predatory look.

"Protection, against the Negro's, against everybody" His accent was very pronounced.

"I don't think you understand what I've been telling you, I can take care of myself" I could tell that he was at the end of his tether.

"Well then you better watch your back boy, otherwise someone might just do something. And you ain't gonna be able to protect yourself" He hissed as he pulled back and walked away. He turned his head and winked at me.

I think I just got myself an enemy. I think?
