The Prison Break

Colonel Abracken is on his way and soon he will reach the Detention block to bring his prizes back to the Emperor so that they can be interrogated and destroyed, however Solo and Chewie will not go quietly as he would assume. In their cell along with several other prisoners, they now plan the escape.


"Well Solo, we're waiting," a voice sounded from within the not so well guarded cell, clearly demanding something from Solo who was sitting on a seat in the left side. The cell was about 5 meters wide with a prison monitoring viewscreen, a small bunk and a few chairs. They were all wearing standard civilian clothes. Han looked as though he was thinking really hard despite this being one of his usual 'act like your thinking really hard until someone else comes up with an idea' tricks. However it didn't seem to fool the standing out hairy figure (Chewbacca) who was seated next to the confident (or not so confident) corellian. Chewie only emitted a few short moans, but to Solo it was enough to force a few words out of his mouth.

"Alright, alright hmm... well I suppose what we could do is, um... well, first of all, does anyone have a thermal detonator?" It was a very naive thing to say, especially considering that its is Imperial procedure to seize all blasters, thermal detonators, det packs, rockets, knives and other means of lethal harm. However nobody really cared too much, except for Chewbacca who hinted a short growl.

"Come on Solo, I on't feel like getting interrogated by one of those things," an inmate named Ikeon said expressing his dislike for Imperial Torture devices.

A brief moment later, Solo spoke again with a light bulb flickering on above his head (not literally of course).

"Wait, I think I have an idea," Solo said and the other inmates gathered around to hear his plan.

Meanwhile, just outside the cell, a few stormtrooper guards are having a chat, despite strict policy to always be disciplined and on task (So much for Imperial maturity).

"Join the Empire he said, see the galaxy, yeah right!" BK - 841 said to BK - 843 obviously disappointed with his current occupation.

"Yeah, those advertisements really sold us to the wrong kind of slavery, oh well. Hey when my shift ends, I'm gonna head down to the mess, you wanna come?"

"Nah, I think I'll just go for another try at getting into the patrol squad, maybe pick up a few of those chicks down at the... hey what the?" The stormtroopers faced the cell viewscreen and were quite disgusted at the site of some of the inmates mooning them. "Kiss my cheeks!" one of them yelled out.

"You convicted, rebel scum. Open the door," BK - 841 ordered to BK - 843 who began to feel slightly edgy.

"I don't know. we're not supposed to open the cells without cleara..."

"If you won't, I will. Step aside," BK - 841 approached the control system pushing his friend out of he way and pressed a few buttons. The door hissed open and the stormtroopers walked in cautiously, noticing that noone was standing in front of them.

"Let's give these rebels a bit of corporate punishment."

"Sure, but be careful, this could be a..." BK - 843 felt someone pull his helmet off and just as he turned around to face behind him, a fist smacked him right in the nose. BK - 841 turned around also, but in the place of his fellow guard, was Han Solo holding a blaster rifle aimed at his head.

"Hey..." Was all he managed to say before he was shot right between the eyes.

"Quick, grab his armour and put it on," Solo said as the inmate known as Antaro knocked BK - 843 fully unconscious.

"Nice work Solo, I always knew you were a good smuggler and um... uh, well," Jhonn said attempting to compliment Solo, whilst pulling on the stormtrooper armour.

"Spare the small talk Jhonn, we have to find some way out of this hell hole. Chewie go check outside," Solo ordered to the wookiee who seemed to be nervous, but nevertheless fulfilled his wishes.

"What do we do?" Antaro asked with curiosity.

"Here," Han yanked off a few restraint binders attached to the stormtrooper's utility belt and threw them to Antaro, "put them on and act like prisoners when I tell you to."

Han then began to put BK-843's armour on.

Chewbacca then came back and moaned in Shyriiwook to Han who instantly put on a partially worried face. "Damn it, we'd better hurry up then," Han said beginning to increase his pace at getting the armour on.

"What is it now?" a person named Ignomi asked nervously.

"Bad news that's what. Some more damn Imperials are coming this way." Han quickly faced Jhonn, who was already in disguise. "Go stand outside the cell and close the door," he then took a glimpse at the rest of them, "you guys help me finish putting this armour on."

"Okay," they acknowledged and moved to help Solo struggle into his disguise. Uniformed and obviously uncomfortable, Jhonn limped slowly to the door.

"I can't see a damn thing in this helmet!" he groaned as he tripped over a few times. "OW! Damn it!"

When Jhonn finally managed to get to the door. He jumped out and closed the rusty entrance. "Whew, well that was really painful," he mumbled to himself in relief. Then he took a glance down the detention block corridor to see a group of Imperial officers moving out of a turbolift. To his further relief, they were pausing for a few moments, but soon they would be coming to take Solo, his wookiee companion and possibly the rest of them back to the Imperial Palace on Coruscant for punishment. "Uh oh, I think there might be more then a few things to worry about here."

What Jhonn ment was that not only were the officers beginning to move again, but they were approaching from the only exit.
