Chapter Text
A long time ago, you woke up locked in this deserted jail cell, completely alone with nothing at all to be found, useful or otherwise.
How long has it been?
Days? Weeks? Months? Years? You’ve lost track of time in this place, you don’t even know when it’s day or night and your only point of reference to know that a day has passed is when the guy from one of the cells above you lets you take half of his food, which is always just a pumpkin. If not for him, you would have starved to death at this point.
You have no idea what kind of crime would result in anyone getting this kind of treatment, but if anything it would be one you did not take part in as the only reason you’re here is because some guy that really hates you had the right contacts and got you in this horrible place. This is also the case for the guy imprisoned above you, both of you used to work together a while back but you didn’t get to know each other beyond the surface level, you don’t even know each other’s names but it’s not like it matters at this point, to the guys running this complex you’re just Prisoner 0-02 and Prisoner 0-03, named after the codes for your jail cells, which is pretty dehumanizing but they might as well be your actual names from now on.
Recently there was a scandal, you’re unsure what time of day it was but you were simply sleeping in peace until you started to hear some people scream and shout, it just so happened that the most recently imprisoned guy had just escaped without leaving a trace. While inspecting the cell, some prison guard looked out the window that lets them peek at your bizarrely tall cell and gave you a mean look, it looked to you like he suspected you might have helped this prisoner escape so you just nervously shook your head and hands around to tell him you did not take any part in this, he just spat at you with extreme precision landing exactly on your face, then you just let out a big frown.
Such a mysterious escape simply meant one thing, they had to get more guards, security cameras, anything they could get to prevent more prisoners from escaping, luckily for you they didn’t put any cameras in the cells, they considered it would be stupid because the prisoners would just mess with them or break them. Good, you don’t know how you’d deal with being observed while you’re taking a shit or something.
This meant anyone else that was caught trying to escape would probably get killed on sight, so what kind of jackass would try and attempt a prison escape in these conditions?
You, of course!
You don’t have a plan at all, but you have your trusty fork and knife which you’ve been using to properly eat the pumpkins and you also have a potential ally as well! That being the pumpkins guy, obviously; now, what else could you ask for?
That prisoner who escaped unnoticed might not have attempted to help his prison mates in any way, but he is your hero regardless, damn! Now you're just itching to escape this place.
You’re ready to do this, the wait is over.
