A/N: Nearly forgot to put this one up! But I blame Bethesda because I've just started Skyrim and got totally distracted. But anyway, here's the chapter you've been waiting for!

Prison Break: Phase 2

It happened all at once, so well timed that there was no way it could be thought of as a coincidence. As the cell doors to every criminal in legs 1 -5 opened, locked doors unlocked and certain parts of the building exploded for some reason. Lin was out of his cell in a second and the first thing he did was punch the marine positioned outside of his cell in the back of the head so he cracked his face on the stone wall in front of him. As he glanced left and right he saw other prisoners do the same thing, the leg 5 criminals weren't planning on dallying about. But it's not these guys I'm worried about; I need to get to the 1st leg! He thought desperately as he dashed through the hallways, and then another thought occurred to him and he slid to a halt.

He pointed to the wall north of him and mouthed '7' and then turned to the wall south of him and mouthed '3'. That means I need to go that way, and fast! He crouched low and bounded forward, crashing his kick into the wall and smashing it to pieces, giving him and the other prisoner's access to the outside courtyards. As he landed on the soft grass he noticed how fortified the outer wall was, overwhelmed with guards wielding rifles all pointed to the legs and main building. He shrugged when they didn't fire on him and dashed onwards towards the next rounded building that signalled the 3rd leg, if he had guessed right.

Just before he reached the wall he launched himself into the air and flipped over, crashing his heel into the stone and dragging it down until he touched the floor. When he did a large crack appeared in the wall and then a door-sized hole appeared as part of the stone collapsed to the floor. On the other side of this wall was a group of prisoners who looked very confused.

"Don't hang around here! This is a good time to scram and escape into the world, just be careful of all the armed guards on the wall; that would hurt." And without waiting to see how they would take his advice he weaved his way through the corridors until he reached what he thought was an outer wall. So he forced that wall to collapse as well and found himself in a courtyard nearly identical to the one he had passed though moments ago. Here go's! He thought as he dashed forward again and made the same movement as before, cracking a large hole into the wall.

Leg 1 was for the lowest class of criminal which had been arrested; all the people with bounties of 20 million, less, or none at all. This meant that there was much more of them then the other legs, over 500 criminals all locked into the same place. This also meant that they were the least rowdy of the 8 legs, being as most of them were only temporarily in there for a month at a time for minor crimes. Lin needed them to be rowdy, as rowdy as he could possibly get them in order for the plan to work at full capacity and benefit him more then it did Heller or anyone else.

There was a number of these inmates stood near the wall he had busted in through and they were looking at him look he wasn't real, or he was some kind of marine or trap. As Lin looked around he saw that all of the inmates in sight were doing nothing at all, absolutely nothing that would help them escape. However, before Lin could think of a way to get them moving a figure appeared out of a doorway, chased by a marine with a sword, and started shouting.

"Run, run for your lives! The marines are going to kill us all!" it sounded weird but if anyone had any doubt as to what he was saying the marine caught up with him and rammed his blade through his stomach. The man screamed and crumpled on the spot, where the marine then continued to stab him again, and again, and again until he was as holy as a mortal man could be; his blood spread across the floor like a lake.

Immediately a shout went up by the ones nearest to the murdered individual and panic ensued as every started to scramble away from the marine in an attempt to escape, even more so when more marines fountained out of the doorway. However, Lin wasn't fooled as he darted his way through the crowd to kneel at the remains of the dead man.

"I was about to say 'I recognise this man' but now I'm going to say 'Good god man, what have you done to your hair!' instead." Lin said as the man pulled himself to a seated position, the wounds inflicted earlier completely gone.

Vandred's hair, previously long and black, was now a mix of dark blue and green and had been styled into hundreds of small braids which hung down his back. He was wearing the standard inmate clothes but as he sat there he managed to strip them off and was wearing a crumpled suit and tie combo, the suit and tie being black and the shirt being a dark red. "My hair? I haven't done anything to my hair…" he replied as he stood up and brushed his suit as if knocking off dust. "What makes you say that?"

Lin decided it would be best to change the subject instead of question the man's hair. "I heard you were locked up in Leg 8 a couple of days ago, how the hell did you get out of there?"

"Oh, a man as nice as myself tends to make friends in the most unlikely of places and it so happened that a nice marine Captain released me to help me escape in the chaos. I heard what you planned to do and thought I'd lend a hand in a way only I could. Damn it!" he suddenly cursed and Lin looked around for trouble "This was my best suit…" he was picking at the holes the sword had made when he was stabbed. "…I didn't think of my suit when I made that plan. What next then?"

Lin smiled despite the situation "Well, I need to go and find one of the Rear-Admirals, I suspect that they are holed up in the central hub, waiting this out."

"Actually, I saw…" whatever he saw was cut off as the door exploded beside them and two inmates came flying through followed by a rather large man brandishing a wicked looking axe.

"Vandred? How did you get out of your cell?" Lodestone cried as he noticed the immortal man.

"Uhhh…" was all Vandred could say but neither he, nor Lodestone, could say anything as Lin leaped upon the bearded man and cracked him in the jaw and crashed him to the ground by rolling into his chest. Lin then trapped his arms with his knees and put his face inches away from the beard, and Lodestone.

"Where is Jason Karnel?" he asked with a growl in the back of his throat.

"Karnel?" Lodestone replied, looking confused. His confused face was interrupted as Lin head butted him full in the face, spurting blood from his nose.

"I'll ask again; where is Jason Karnel?"

Lodestone wanted to resist, wanted to shout in Lin's face to get lost but the fury in the man's eyes stopped him. He found himself instead answering the question this pirate asked of him. "Leg 7, the Rear-Admirals in charge of the Legs that weren't going to be involved stayed at their posts; to make sure none of them get too riled up." Why did I say that? He thought to himself as Lin smiled a thank you and head butted him again, which knock him unconscious.

"Come on then, Vandred!" Lin said as he jumped to his feet and raced towards the exit that would lead him to the central hub. Vandred looked at Lodestone with surprise, he was meant to be strong, but then shrugged and sprinted after Lin in order to catch up with him.

As the dashed through the corridors, avoiding inmates and marines alike, they finally came to the large door which would lead them to the central hub. Lin was about to blast it open with a mighty kick but saw that it was already opened; it had somehow been unlocked at some point. Lin didn't even pause to see if it was a trap, he burst through and sprinted around the long circular corridor until he caught sight of a large door with a 7 carved into it. However, before he could break in he noticed something through a hole in the wall.

Chiketta was backing up against the outer wall, which was conspicuously empty of guards, and was surrounded by the remaining seven Rear-Admirals now that Lodestone had been taken care of.

"What in blazes is going on there?" was all he managed to say before the wall behind Chiketta exploded.

Doctor was sitting in his quarters when the explosions went off, exactly when Heller had explained they would. This also meant that he now knew all the cells were open as well as all the doors leading to the inner hub, except for legs 6-8 which were too dangerous to open according to Heller.

After Heller had finished her explanation of what was going to happen and left Doctor and Lin to talk away, they had made plans of their own. Doctor had two tasks to do before they left the island; he was to find Ortare Ingrill and do one of two things to him; take him hostage or rip the bomb out of his stomach and stitch him up as best he could. The second thing he had to do was find Jason Karnel and kill him. So it was because of the first objective that he was walking calmly towards the recovery room where he would find Ortare. Since his quarters were in the lower part of the central hub, the only people he had to avoid were marines suiting up to put down the riot and get things back in order.

He dodged a pair of marines who were arguing over who was going to get the rifle, and who the sword, and entered through a thin wooden door that led him to Ortare. The recovery room was there only for patients who couldn't sustain themselves were they to stay in their own cell. Ortare was one of them, considering he was in a full body cast since his ribs, legs, arms and jaw had been broken by Lin a couple of days ago. Ortare was conscious when Doctor entered and his eyes swivelled to him as he closed the door quietly behind him; his jaw had been wired shut so he couldn't speak.

"You now have a choice before you, a simple choice if you wish…" Ortare's eyes looked confused at the statement. "When I fixed you up, I also added something extra…a bomb in a cavity by your stomach." His eyes widened in surprise "and now the choice is, either I can take you with me and explode the bomb while it is still inside you…or I rip it out of you and stitch you up as best I can, which as you know is very well." It wasn't really a choice "So close your eyes if you want me to rip the bomb out of you or keep them open if you wish for me to take you with me."

There was a pause before Ortare rammed his eyelids shut and his eyes scrunched with the effort he used to keep them shut. "As you wish, but this is going to hurt." He stepped up close to Ortare and rested his palm against the place where he had placed the bomb, then with a powerful squeezing and pulling action he ripped the bomb free of flesh and held it in his hand. Blood spurted everywhere from Ortare as Doctor wiped the bomb clean and tied it to his waist with a piece of string. Then he left Ortare to bleed to death as he walked out and shut the door behind him, before walking casually down the corridor to his next goal.

He exited out of the under rooms and nearly bumped into Lin, who was staring out of a hole in the wall at something. Without saying anything Doctor walked up behind him and glanced out to see the same scene with Chiketta and the seven Rear-Admirals ganging up on him. Then the wall exploded.

A/N: So the plan unfolds and things are getting exciting! But what are the Rear-Admirals up to, what is their real plan? You can guess that Lin and Doctor aren't going to leave them alone, so keep your eyes and ears peeled for the next exciting chapter heading your way soon! Yay!
