                                  Chapter Seven: Prison Break

      As a complete alert went around the city for the break out of the prison, all of the teenagers began to load up with weapons and medical kits; they were going to get their friends out of there. Of course the group in Harlem were the closest, and after a day of the alert, they began heading out to the prison. Steven Banks showed them how to drive a military jeep. They began to head out the door, when Seneca saw Steven in the hallway.

      “Steven, how do you know all these things about the military objects?” she asked. Steven looked at the innocent white vixen and noticed she was slouching a little. She didn’t want anyone to know that she was still hurt from the shell that exploded next to her. She wasn’t fully recovered. “Seneca, I didn’t know anything about military until two weeks ago, when the Russians invaded New York. A friend of mine was killed in front of me, and all because I didn’t know anything about explosions. They were about to take me as prisoner, when a group of teenagers came and took out the fleet that captured us. I got out alive, but... my friend was taken from me in front of my eyes. And I hate to say it, but you remind me a lot of her. Your kindness and...” he stopped and turned away from her. He looked at her again slowly, “the way you look so innocent.” he finished. Before Seneca could respond, Steven quickly walked away and then left her alone in the hallway.

      Seneca quickly ran after him and tried to catch up to him. But when she went outside, all she saw were motorcycles, military jeeps, and Hummers pulling off towards the prison. As she immediately gave up and decided to go into a military jeep, someone called out to her. “Yo, Seneca, need a ride?” someone asked. She turned towards the voice and saw Jay Nelson on a running motorcycle with his hand extended out towards her. Seneca smiled and walked over to Jay. “Yeah, sure.” she responded. She hopped on and then put on a helmet. As she put her arms around Jay’s waist, she heavily blushed; but she quickly hid it. “Um Jay... do you know how to ride this thing?” Seneca asked. She couldn’t see it, but she had a picture in her mind of him smiling. He turned towards her a little and smirked.

      “Are you kidding? I love this kind of excitement! I mastered all types of motorcycles. It makes a much better rush than a car.” he explained and revved the motorcycle. The motorcycle zoomed out of the parking lot and into the street. Seneca squeezed Jay tightly and almost squeezed the breath out of him. Seneca couldn’t see it, but Jay was blushing lightly. He was not used to being held so tightly. He shook his thoughts and leaned forward. The motorcycle continued to fly down the street. Jay was thinking constantly about many things as the wind continued to lick at his face. The rush of cold air chilled his body and kept him alert. For five minutes, they rode in silence while riding towards the prison. When they arrived, it took Seneca a while to get rid of the cold rush that coursed through her body.

      Jay jumped off of the motorcycle and walked towards the gate of the building. He looked back and witnessed Seneca slowly getting off the motorcycle. “Just… give me a moment.” she stated after leaning against a wall. Jay nodded, pumped his shotgun, and opened the gate in front of the building. He started to run towards the shadow of the big building and put his back against the wall. He peeked from the corner and didn’t see any guards at all. He took out a walkie-talkie and then turned it up. He pressed and held a button before speaking into it, “Bruce. Bruce. Bruce are you there?” he asked and let go of the button. Suddenly the device beeped loudly and chirped, “Yeah Jay, I’m here, what’s up?” he asked. Jay pressed and held the button again, “What’s your position? I have Seneca with me and we’re both about to enter the building.” he stated and let it go. “Roger that. Veronica and I are taking the rest of the guards out in the entire west wing of the building. We have a lot of fighters down here now though that’s helping us out by opening the doors of the prisons and letting the rest of the teenagers out. We still need you down here though; I don’t want you to miss all of the action. I still don’t know exactly where Steven is.” Bruce responded. Jay set down his shotgun on the corner of the building, took out his pistol, and took the safety off just in case he needed to use it immediately. He put the pistol back into his holster and then picked up his shotgun from the corner and looked at Seneca.

      She was walking towards him with an assault rifle in her hands and two small pistols in two thigh holsters. She nodded towards him, and he nodded back. He pressed the button on the walkie-talkie, “Alright, we’re heading in there now. We’ll meet you when this is all over.” he stated and put the walkie-talkie into a patch near his belt. The two foxes began running to the door of the building and then opened it. They both went inside and closed the door. They both ran at top speed down the hall as they looked to their left and right. ‘I hope we can get out of here ok. I don’t want to look at another friend’s cold dead eyes…’ Jay thought as he looked at the shotgun in his hands.

Meanwhile…
      Bruce and Veronica were shooting constantly at the guards as they took cover behind crates and metal boxes full of legal papers and documents. Bruce let the empty clip fall out of the bottom of the pistol he was holding as he put a new fresh clip in. He looked over to Veronica and noticed she was taking a fire extinguisher off of the wall next to her. She quickly threw it in the air and then fired a round into it as it got far enough to do enough damage to the guards. “Let’s go!” Veronica yelled. They both stood up and ran at full speed with the same agility and speed as they took the rest of the guards with their combat knife. As Veronica sighed and put her knife down, Bruce suddenly threw his knife straight at Veronica. She couldn’t believe it; Bruce was trying to kill her. Her eyes went wide as she saw the knife get closer. Suddenly everything seemed to go back into a fast motion again and the knife passed right by her head.

      She heard a disturbing slice of flesh and then something drop behind her. She turned around and then saw a soldier on the floor with a knife in his face. She quickly turned away and then looked at Bruce. He wasn’t smiling, but he wasn’t frowning either. He meant serious business, and for once, Veronica seemed interested in his story. “C’mon let’s go.” Bruce stated and ran towards the stairs. Veronica nodded and ran after him. As Veronica and Bruce and passed by the hallways of the first floor, they saw many firefights between fighters and guards. “Everything seems to be going great. We’re getting the teenagers out and that means a lot of recruits coming in.” Bruce stated. “But the weapons, what if…” Veronica began, but then saw something pass by her that she didn’t believe. A brown fox with a group of other furries were running in front of them towards the stairs to the second floor. “Jake!” she called out. The brown fox turned around and looked at the red vixen and smirked. “Veronica, I see you’re still alive. I knew it would take a lot more than this to take you down.” he stated.

      Veronica smiled and began to laugh nervously at the fact that her friend was still alive. Before she knew it, she was hugging onto Jake tightly and crying. Jake had never seen Veronica in this state; usually nothing could phase her. She had seen a whole neighborhood of kids be killed for misleading information and crooked cops. So he knew that this had a bigger effect on her than he had thought. “Where’s Charlie?” he asked. Veronica looked into Jake’s eyes and then looked away, “He’s… dead… I gave him my flag. He helped me and a couple of other furries escape from an alleyway that had many Russian soldiers blocking the entrance to one of the shelters.” she explained. “Oh… I see… well the gang is still checking over Harlem High for any more resources that we can find.” Jake stated.

      Suddenly an orange fox with shades walked towards Jake. “Yo Jake, you know her?” he asked. Jake nodded, “Yeah, a good friend of mine actually.” he responded. He turned back towards Veronica and then back to the orange fox, “Edward, tell Crystal that I’m going to go with another group of fighters. I’ve been looking for her for quite some time and I don’t want to lose her again.” he stated quickly. He didn’t like saying stuff like that often, but he knew that there was a time to suck it up and stand up for what you wanted. “Alright man, I’ll tell her. It’s been nice meeting you Jake.” Edward stated. “Likewise.” Jake responded. The two of them split up as Jake went with Veronica and Bruce. Edward waved and then ran another way and then turned the corner out of their sight.

      “So where are we going now?” Jake asked. Bruce looked at the map of the building and then pointed at a certain spot, “We’re going to the fifteenth floor to get rid of the so called ‘warden’ of this prison. We have intel that he’s up there giving commands on counterstriking our assault.” Bruce answered. Jake smirked, “I like it when the enemy squirms before they die.” he stated after reloading his pistol.

Meanwhile on the fifth floor…
      Edward ran down the hall and began to slow down. He found a pink and velvet vixen shooting down the hall and then reloading their pistols. “Crystal, Jake has went with another group of fighters and told me to tell you that he was going.” he informed. The pink vixen nodded and then took out an assault rifle. “That must have been that Veronica he was talking about then. He said he had a feeling that she was somehow going to be here. He was really anxious in coming along with us, even with his hurt arm.” Crystal stated. Suddenly the velvet vixen looked at Edward and then looked around him. “Edward, where’s Jessica?” she asked. Edward then rubbed his head and then thought to himself how glad he was to have shades on, because if they could read the expression on his face, then he would be in a world of trouble. “Well, she kinda… left me alone after quickly punching me in the gut and then saying she was sorry.” he explained. The vixen almost fumed, “She did what?” she yelled. Crystal then looked at the vixen and put a hand on her shoulder, “Look Rosie, it’s not going to help us now in yelling at each other. We just need to quickly find her before she goes any deeper into this prison alone. I knew she was in here before, I had a feeling…” she whispered.

Meanwhile on the seventh floor…
      A yellow vixen with a brown jacket was running down the hallway with a pistol in her hand. ‘Don’t worry Daniel, I’m coming for you. I’m so close I can feel you.’ she thought. Suddenly two guards slid into the room and began firing at her. She got hit with two bullets in the side before completely blowing both their brains out of their heads. She continued to run slowly as she looked for the infamous room that both her and Daniel were imprisoned in for five days straight. When she finally found the room, she didn’t waist anytime in blasting the door open with her gun and ran inside. She saw a red fox heavily bleeding with a pistol in his hand and a pool of blood around his body. She looked around the room and saw five dead soldiers on the ground near the opposite side of the room. “Daniel… no…” she whispered. She ran to his body and then began to pick him up. He grunted in pain and then put his weight on her. “Jessica… you came back.” he stated.

      She nodded and then began to walk with him on her side. “Yes I did, and I’m glad you’re not dead.” she stated. They walked out of the room and then walked down the corridor. “Just six floors to go before we’re both free. The rest of the fighters can take care of the rest.” she stated. Daniel smiled, “Ok, that sounds like a good enough challenge for me.” he stated and then stood up straight. “Daniel wait…” Jessica began to say, but then she saw him smile, “I’m not going to let you escort me to the exit, I’m going to escort you. I told you we were getting out of here together, and that’s what I meant.” he stated after leaning against the wall. “Don’t worry about me, I’ve been through worse.” he continued. He closed his eyes, took a long breath, and then opened them up again. “Ok Jessica, let’s go.” he stated. Jessica nodded and then began running. Daniel ran after her and they began running past the separate firefights that filled the huge building.

      Everything was going well as they made it past the fourth floor, but as they went down the third, six soldiers stood in front of them and began firing. They quickly dove to the side of the wall and went around a corner. Just as the soldiers began to follow them, a barrage of bullets hit them from the back and took out the group of soldiers. Jessica and Daniel looked ahead of them and saw a red fox with red eyes, a white vixen with red eyes, a white fox with green eyes, and a sand colored dog with golden yellow eyes. “Go, we have you covered.” the white fox stated. Jessica and Daniel nodded and then began to walk past the group of fighters. “Thanks.” Daniel said as they continued to run down the stairs. “Bradley, I knew if we came here that we would help somebody out.” the sand colored dog stated. Bradley smirked, “Yeah, I guess we do need a little piece of action once in awhile.” he stated and then began to run up the stairs.

      Jessica and Daniel then ran past a white vixen with crystal violet eyes and an orange fox with olive green eyes. “Jessica…” was all that the orange fox could manage out before the red fox ran at full speed past him. But as Jessica passed the orange fox, she noticed something that she hadn’t seen in a very long while. “Jay…” she whispered before Daniel continued to pull her out of the building. Jessica looked back at the last second to see the confused orange vulpine have a puzzled look on his face before the door completely closed. “Ok, let’s go.” Daniel stated and they ran outside of the gate and towards a motorcycle. They both hopped on and Daniel turned the key and then revved the motorcycle. Jessica smirked, “Free at last.” she stated and put her arms around Daniel’s waist. He turned the handle bar and the motorcycle zoomed down the street. ‘We finally escaped together. Now we have to beat the Russians and everything will be alright.’ Jessica thought as she saw many buildings pass by her quickly.

Meanwhile inside the prison…
      Jay and Seneca continued to walk down the hall as Jay pulled out a walkie-talkie and then pushed a button on it. “Hey Bruce, two fighters just left out of the building and they were both wounded critically. But I knew one of them.” Jay reported. “Who were they?” the walkie-talkie chirped back. “One was a red fox that was wounded in the stomach. But the second one was a yellow vixen with navy blue eyes. She was wounded on her left side pretty badly. But something about her… I knew her. She’s my cousin and I… haven’t seen her in over eight years. She was supposed to be dead.” Jay explained. Seneca gasped, “Jay, how were you two separated that long?” she asked. Jay sighed and looked at the innocent-looking vixen. Suddenly his eyes grew wide and he pushed Seneca very hard into another hallway. Two shots rang out in the dark and narrow hallways. Seneca quickly stood back up and took out her pistol, getting ready for anything. An orange fox walked slowly towards Seneca from the corner of the hallway that they had came from. He was holding his side and was breathing hard. But what surprised Seneca the most was that she saw him smirk, “Heh, I got him first.” he stated.

      Suddenly he coughed violently one time and saw the blood from his mouth splat onto the floor. He fell onto his knees and then fell face down. “Jay!” Seneca yelled as she turned him over onto his back. Jay had one hand on his chest and the other one was lying by his side. Seneca looked deep into his eyes and saw them about to glaze over. “Jay, don’t you die on me.” she demanded and took his walkie-talkie. She pressed the button on it and began to frantically speak. “Bruce, Jay has been shot. The wound looks fatal and I don’t know what to do. He needs medical attention now and I don’t have my kit with me.” she stated. “But I do.” a voice said behind her. Seneca turned around to see a red fox with orange hair and dark brown eyes.  “Don’t worry, we’re sending a few fighters down there now to go and take him back to base.” the walkie-talkie chirped back. “Ok.” Seneca responded. The red vixen sat a medical kit beside Jay and then dropped to her knees.

      “He’s losing a lot of pressure in his blood. At this rate, it’s almost impossible to stop the bleeding. And even if I do, I have to worry about the internal bleeding.” the vixen stated. She opened the medical kit next to her and then began working on Jay. She continued working on the wound and then began dabbing a piece of cloth with strong rubbing alcohol and put it on the wound. Jay hissed in pain and then almost jumped up from the ground. “Wow, it already began to get infected. If the shot wasn’t going to kill him, the germs definitely would have.” the vixen commented. Seneca wrapped a long white small sheet around Jay’s waist and then stood him up. “What’s your name?” Seneca asked the vixen. “Christine Laura.” she answered. Just as Seneca was about to say something else, two fighters ran down the hallway and then went towards Jay. “Hey, we got the message from Bruce, we’ll take it from here. We’re taking him back to base.” one explained and put one of Jay’s arms over his shoulder.

      Seneca and Christine both watched as the fighters rushed him out of the building and out of sight. Christine looked at Seneca and then smiled, “I hate that we met under this hell of a problem, but I’m actually glad I’m not the only one who knows about medicine and nursing.” she stated. Seneca smiled back, “Me too.” she responded. “C’mon, let’s go help the others, someone else might need our help.” Seneca suggested and then took out her pistol again. Christine nodded in agreement and took out a pistol that was customized and put on burst. They both ran down the hallway and up the stairs as they went to meet with other fighters.

Meanwhile on the fourteenth floor…
      Two military Russian guards continued to hold the last door of the last prisoner being held in the building. “Out of all the ones that was left, it had to be this one.” one of the guards stated. The door was being slammed into from the other side and the two big guards didn’t think that they could hold out much longer. “Tell me about it, I don’t even know how they even managed to get her in here. If she gets out, all hell will break loose for us and then we will be in some deep shit.” the second guard stated. Suddenly the door flew wide open and the two guards flew across the hall. As the two guards stood back up, they saw two cold glowing icy blue eyes staring at the two guards. They both took out their weapons and began to fire before trying to meet the female inside the room. A figure quickly and swiftly jumped out of the room and out of their direction of gunfire. As one guard turned around to see the figure, all he saw was a white tail slap him across the face as his gun was quickly taken from his hands and was being fired into his back.

      The guard fell onto the ground with a bloody pool around his body and the second guard dropped his gun and took out his combat knife. “Come on!” he yelled a little frantically. He saw the figure run towards him, drop the gun, and take out a knife of her own. The guard cleanly swiped at the figure, but he didn’t hit her. He looked up only to see the figure flip and then put one boot down into his face. She quickly hopped off of his face and onto the floor. The guard got back up with a bloody nose and he ran towards her. “You do not intimidate me! We do that to you Americans!” he yelled and lunged at her. But the figure hopped into the air lowly and kicked him continuously and hopped off of his face and flipped behind him. She quickly grabbed the guard’s arm, put the knife to his neck and slit his throat as hard as she could. Blood sprayed from his throat as his gasping body fell onto the floor. “It’s payback time now.” the figure stated as she walked down the hall.

      She looked at her bloody black fingertip gloves and began to suck her teeth in disgust. She walked to a fallen guard and wiped her hands on his uniform. “I need to freshen up.” the figure stated and walked towards a bathroom. When she got inside, she looked into a mirror and smiled warmly at herself. She looked at the white fur on her face and her snout. Then she looked at the black workout suit she was wearing along with the black tied headband that came low just enough to hold the overflowing white hair on top of her head. She saw her smooth white tail move back and forth slowly and smiled. ‘It’s good to be a vixen. Tonya Jones is back in action.’ the figure thought and walked out of the bathroom after grooming herself.

Meanwhile…
      A white fox wearing a baseball cap over his eyes began to slowly walk down the hallway with a grenade in his hand and a pistol in the other. ‘I can shoot this thing, I just have to try hard to aim.’ he thought as he walked up to the fifteenth floor. Suddenly a white vixen in a skin tight black workout suit ran into the white fox. The white vixen immediately got back up and had a knife in her hand, but then realized that it was another teenager. “Oh, sorry about that.” she apologized. Steven moved his cap upward for the first time and looked at the white vixen. “Where are you going in such a hurry? All the guards have been taken out.” he said calmly. The white vixen scoffed, “Yeah I know, but the real problem is up that staircase. The warden thinks he’s going to get away with this and I’m going to show him who’s really the boss.” she responded and began walking up the stairs.

      “Wait, I’ll come with you. There are a lot of fighters who wants this guy dead. I just want to see the look on his face before he dies.” he stated. The white vixen smirked, then she turned towards the white fox, “By the way, what’s your name?” she asked. “Steven Banks, and yours?” he asked. “Tonya Jones. The number one fighter in New York.” she responded. “Ok miss everything, let’s see what you got when we go against the big man.” Steven stated. “My pleasure.” Tonya responded and they both began walking up the stairs to the fifteenth floor.

Meanwhile on the fourteenth floor…
      Bradley, Angel, Joane, and Jim ran up the stairs and checked the hallways. “Alright, it’s pretty clear here.” Bradley said quickly. Suddenly a velvet vixen, pink vixen, orange fox with shades, and a blue fox ran up the stairs. Jim and his group quickly pointed their weapons at them, but then noticed that they were not guards. “Sorry about that.” Jim stated. The pink vixen waved her hand in front of her as if to brush it off. “No problem, we all feel like that right now.” she stated. Suddenly a red vixen with black flowing hair and a brown fox with a white echidna opened a stairway door. “Jake, I see you want a piece of the action too.” Edward stated. Jake nodded and then joined the others. Another two vixens joined as well as the elevator opened up. It was a white vixen and a red vixen. “Seneca.” Veronica stated and went to hug her. “I thought you and Jay were dead. We heard gunshots downstairs and then that frantic call you gave about Jay. Wait, where is he?” she asked. “He was carried away by two fighters back to his base.” Christine stated. “Looks like we have something in common. We all want to kill the warden in this place.” Crystal stated. They all nodded and then loaded their weapons. “Let’s go show them how it’s done then.” Bruce stated and walked up the stairs to the fifteenth floor. The rest of them did the same and knew that this was the beginning of a strong revolution.

                                              To Be Continued

      As a complete alert went around the city for the break out of the prison, all of the teenagers began to load up with weapons and medical kits; they were going to get their friends out of there. Of course the group in Harlem were the closest, and after a day of the alert, they began heading out to the prison. Steven Banks showed them how to drive a military jeep. They began to head out the door, when Seneca saw Steven in the hallway.

      “Steven, how do you know all these things about the military objects?” she asked. Steven looked at the innocent white vixen and noticed she was slouching a little. She didn’t want anyone to know that she was still hurt from the shell that exploded next to her. She wasn’t fully recovered. “Seneca, I didn’t know anything about military until two weeks ago, when the Russians invaded New York.

      Seneca quickly ran after him and tried to catch up to him. But when she went outside, all she saw were motorcycles, military jeeps, and Hummers pulling off towards the prison. As she immediately gave up and decided to go into a military jeep, someone called out to her. “Yo, Seneca, need a ride?” someone asked. She turned towards the voice and saw Jay Nelson on a running motorcycle with his hand extended out towards her. Seneca smiled and walked over to Jay. “Yeah, sure.” she responded. She hopped on and then put on a helmet. As she put her arms around Jay’s waist, she heavily blushed; but she quickly hid it. “Um Jay... do you know how to ride this thing?” Seneca asked. She couldn’t see it, but she had a picture in her mind of him smiling. He turned towards her a little and smirked.

Jay set down his shotgun on the corner of the building, took out his pistol, and took the safety off just in case he needed to use it immediately. He put the pistol back into his holster and then picked up his shotgun from the corner and looked at Seneca.

      She was walking towards him with an assault rifle in her hands and two small pistols in two thigh holsters. She nodded towards him, and he nodded back.

      Bruce and Veronica were shooting constantly at the guards as they took cover behind crates and metal boxes full of legal papers and documents. Bruce let the empty clip fall out of the bottom of the pistol he was holding as he put a new fresh clip in. He looked over to Veronica and noticed she was taking a fire extinguisher off of the wall next to her.

A brown fox with a group of other furries were running in front of them towards the stairs to the second floor. “Jake!” she called out. The brown fox turned around and looked at the red vixen and smirked. “Veronica, I see you’re still alive. I knew it would take a lot more than this to take you down.” he stated.

      Veronica smiled and began to laugh nervously at the fact that her friend was still alive. Before she knew it, she was hugging onto Jake tightly and crying. Jake had never seen Veronica in this state; usually nothing could phase her. She had seen a whole neighborhood of kids be killed for misleading information and crooked cops. So he knew that this had a bigger effect on her than he had thought. “Where’s Charlie?” he asked. Veronica looked into Jake’s eyes and then looked away, “He’s… dead… I gave him my flag. He helped me and a couple of other furries escape from an alleyway that had many Russian soldiers blocking the entrance to one of the shelters.” she explained. “Oh… I see… well the gang is still checking over Harlem High for any more resources that we can find.” Jake stated.

      Suddenly an orange fox with shades walked towards Jake. “Yo Jake, you know her?” he asked. Jake nodded, “Yeah, a good friend of mine actually.” he responded. He turned back towards Veronica and then back to the orange fox, “Edward, tell Crystal that I’m going to go with another group of fighters. I’ve been looking for her for quite some time and I don’t want to lose her again.” he stated quickly. He didn’t like saying stuff like that often, but he knew that there was a time to suck it up and stand up for what you wanted. “Alright man, I’ll tell her. It’s been nice meeting you Jake.” Edward stated. “Likewise.” Jake responded. The two of them split up as Jake went with Veronica and Bruce. Edward waved and then ran another way and then turned the corner out of their sight.

      “So where are we going now?” Jake asked. Bruce looked at the map of the building and then pointed at a certain spot, “We’re going to the fifteenth floor to get rid of the so called ‘warden’ of this prison. We have intel that he’s up there giving commands on counterstriking our assault.” Bruce answered. Jake smirked, “I like it when the enemy squirms before they die.” he stated after reloading his pistol.

Meanwhile on the fifth floor…
      Edward ran down the hall and began to slow down. He found a pink and velvet vixen shooting down the hall and then reloading their pistols. “Crystal, Jake has went with another group of fighters and told me to tell you that he was going.” he informed. The pink vixen nodded and then took out an assault rifle. “That must have been that Veronica he was talking about then. He said he had a feeling that she was somehow going to be here. He was really anxious in coming along with us, even with his hurt arm.” Crystal stated. Suddenly the velvet vixen looked at Edward and then looked around him. “Edward, where’s Jessica?” she asked. Edward then rubbed his head and then thought to himself how glad he was to have shades on, because if they could read the expression on his face, then he would be in a world of trouble. “Well, she kinda… left me alone after quickly punching me in the gut and then saying she was sorry.” he explained. The vixen almost fumed, “She did what?” she yelled. Crystal then looked at the vixen and put a hand on her shoulder, “Look Rosie, it’s not going to help us now in yelling at each other. We just need to quickly find her before she goes any deeper into this prison alone. I knew she was in here before, I had a feeling…” she whispered.

Meanwhile on the seventh floor…
      A yellow vixen with a brown jacket was running down the hallway with a pistol in her hand. ‘Don’t worry Daniel, I’m coming for you. I’m so close I can feel you.’ she thought. Suddenly two guards slid into the room and began firing at her. She got hit with two bullets in the side before completely blowing both their brains out of their heads. She continued to run slowly as she looked for the infamous room that both her and Daniel were imprisoned in for five days straight. When she finally found the room, she didn’t waist anytime in blasting the door open with her gun and ran inside. She saw a red fox heavily bleeding with a pistol in his hand and a pool of blood around his body. She looked around the room and saw five dead soldiers on the ground near the opposite side of the room. “Daniel… no…” she whispered. She ran to his body and then began to pick him up. He grunted in pain and then put his weight on her. “Jessica… you came back.” he stated.

      She nodded and then began to walk with him on her side. “Yes I did, and I’m glad you’re not dead.” she stated. They walked out of the room and then walked down the corridor. “Just six floors to go before we’re both free. The rest of the fighters can take care of the rest.” she stated. Daniel smiled, “Ok, that sounds like a good enough challenge for me.” he stated and then stood up straight. “Daniel wait…” Jessica began to say, but then she saw him smile, “I’m not going to let you escort me to the exit, I’m going to escort you. I told you we were getting out of here together, and that’s what I meant.” he stated after leaning against the wall. “Don’t worry about me, I’ve been through worse.” he continued. He closed his eyes, took a long breath, and then opened them up again. “Ok Jessica, let’s go.” he stated. Jessica nodded and then began running. Daniel ran after her and they began running past the separate firefights that filled the huge building.

      Everything was going well as they made it past the fourth floor, but as they went down the third, six soldiers stood in front of them and began firing. They quickly dove to the side of the wall and went around a corner. Just as the soldiers began to follow them, a barrage of bullets hit them from the back and took out the group of soldiers. Jessica and Daniel looked ahead of them and saw a red fox with red eyes, a white vixen with red eyes, a white fox with green eyes, and a sand colored dog with golden yellow eyes. “Go, we have you covered.” the white fox stated. Jessica and Daniel nodded and then began to walk past the group of fighters. “Thanks.” Daniel said as they continued to run down the stairs. “Bradley, I knew if we came here that we would help somebody out.” the sand colored dog stated. Bradley smirked, “Yeah, I guess we do need a little piece of action once in awhile.” he stated and then began to run up the stairs.

      Jessica and Daniel then ran past a white vixen with crystal violet eyes and an orange fox with olive green eyes. “Jessica…” was all that the orange fox could manage out before the red fox ran at full speed past him. But as Jessica passed the orange fox, she noticed something that she hadn’t seen in a very long while. “Jay…” she whispered before Daniel continued to pull her out of the building. Jessica looked back at the last second to see the confused orange vulpine have a puzzled look on his face before the door completely closed. “Ok, let’s go.” Daniel stated and they ran outside of the gate and towards a motorcycle. They both hopped on and Daniel turned the key and then revved the motorcycle. Jessica smirked, “Free at last.” she stated and put her arms around Daniel’s waist. He turned the handle bar and the motorcycle zoomed down the street. ‘We finally escaped together. Now we have to beat the Russians and everything will be alright.’ Jessica thought as she saw many buildings pass by her quickly.

Meanwhile inside the prison…
      Jay and Seneca continued to walk down the hall as Jay pulled out a walkie-talkie and then pushed a button on it. “Hey Bruce, two fighters just left out of the building and they were both wounded critically. But I knew one of them.” Jay reported. “Who were they?” the walkie-talkie chirped back. “One was a red fox that was wounded in the stomach. But the second one was a yellow vixen with navy blue eyes. She was wounded on her left side pretty badly. But something about her… I knew her. She’s my cousin and I… haven’t seen her in over eight years. She was supposed to be dead.” Jay explained. Seneca gasped, “Jay, how were you two separated that long?” she asked. Jay sighed and looked at the innocent-looking vixen. Suddenly his eyes grew wide and he pushed Seneca very hard into another hallway. Two shots rang out in the dark and narrow hallways. Seneca quickly stood back up and took out her pistol, getting ready for anything. An orange fox walked slowly towards Seneca from the corner of the hallway that they had came from. He was holding his side and was breathing hard. But what surprised Seneca the most was that she saw him smirk, “Heh, I got him first.” he stated.

      Suddenly he coughed violently one time and saw the blood from his mouth splat onto the floor. He fell onto his knees and then fell face down. “Jay!” Seneca yelled as she turned him over onto his back. Jay had one hand on his chest and the other one was lying by his side. Seneca looked deep into his eyes and saw them about to glaze over. “Jay, don’t you die on me.” she demanded and took his walkie-talkie. She pressed the button on it and began to frantically speak. “Bruce, Jay has been shot. The wound looks fatal and I don’t know what to do. He needs medical attention now and I don’t have my kit with me.” she stated. “But I do.” a voice said behind her. Seneca turned around to see a red fox with orange hair and dark brown eyes.  “Don’t worry, we’re sending a few fighters down there now to go and take him back to base.” the walkie-talkie chirped back. “Ok.” Seneca responded. The red vixen sat a medical kit beside Jay and then dropped to her knees.

      “He’s losing a lot of pressure in his blood. At this rate, it’s almost impossible to stop the bleeding. And even if I do, I have to worry about the internal bleeding.” the vixen stated. She opened the medical kit next to her and then began working on Jay. She continued working on the wound and then began dabbing a piece of cloth with strong rubbing alcohol and put it on the wound. Jay hissed in pain and then almost jumped up from the ground. “Wow, it already began to get infected. If the shot wasn’t going to kill him, the germs definitely would have.” the vixen commented. Seneca wrapped a long white small sheet around Jay’s waist and then stood him up. “What’s your name?” Seneca asked the vixen. “Christine Laura.” she answered. Just as Seneca was about to say something else, two fighters ran down the hallway and then went towards Jay. “Hey, we got the message from Bruce, we’ll take it from here. We’re taking him back to base.” one explained and put one of Jay’s arms over his shoulder.

      Seneca and Christine both watched as the fighters rushed him out of the building and out of sight. Christine looked at Seneca and then smiled, “I hate that we met under this hell of a problem, but I’m actually glad I’m not the only one who knows about medicine and nursing.” she stated. Seneca smiled back, “Me too.” she responded. “C’mon, let’s go help the others, someone else might need our help.” Seneca suggested and then took out her pistol again. Christine nodded in agreement and took out a pistol that was customized and put on burst. They both ran down the hallway and up the stairs as they went to meet with other fighters.

Meanwhile on the fourteenth floor…
      Two military Russian guards continued to hold the last door of the last prisoner being held in the building. “Out of all the ones that was left, it had to be this one.” one of the guards stated. The door was being slammed into from the other side and the two big guards didn’t think that they could hold out much longer. “Tell me about it, I don’t even know how they even managed to get her in here. If she gets out, all hell will break loose for us and then we will be in some deep shit.” the second guard stated. Suddenly the door flew wide open and the two guards flew across the hall. As the two guards stood back up, they saw two cold glowing icy blue eyes staring at the two guards. They both took out their weapons and began to fire before trying to meet the female inside the room. A figure quickly and swiftly jumped out of the room and out of their direction of gunfire. As one guard turned around to see the figure, all he saw was a white tail slap him across the face as his gun was quickly taken from his hands and was being fired into his back.

      The guard fell onto the ground with a bloody pool around his body and the second guard dropped his gun and took out his combat knife. “Come on!” he yelled a little frantically. He saw the figure run towards him, drop the gun, and take out a knife of her own. The guard cleanly swiped at the figure, but he didn’t hit her. He looked up only to see the figure flip and then put one boot down into his face. She quickly hopped off of his face and onto the floor. The guard got back up with a bloody nose and he ran towards her. “You do not intimidate me! We do that to you Americans!” he yelled and lunged at her. But the figure hopped into the air lowly and kicked him continuously and hopped off of his face and flipped behind him. She quickly grabbed the guard’s arm, put the knife to his neck and slit his throat as hard as she could. Blood sprayed from his throat as his gasping body fell onto the floor. “It’s payback time now.” the figure stated as she walked down the hall.

      She looked at her bloody black fingertip gloves and began to suck her teeth in disgust. She walked to a fallen guard and wiped her hands on his uniform. “I need to freshen up.” the figure stated and walked towards a bathroom. When she got inside, she looked into a mirror and smiled warmly at herself. She looked at the white fur on her face and her snout. Then she looked at the black workout suit she was wearing along with the black tied headband that came low just enough to hold the overflowing white hair on top of her head. She saw her smooth white tail move back and forth slowly and smiled. ‘It’s good to be a vixen. Tonya Jones is back in action.’ the figure thought and walked out of the bathroom after grooming herself.

Meanwhile…
      A white fox wearing a baseball cap over his eyes began to slowly walk down the hallway with a grenade in his hand and a pistol in the other. ‘I can shoot this thing, I just have to try hard to aim.’ he thought as he walked up to the fifteenth floor. Suddenly a white vixen in a skin tight black workout suit ran into the white fox. The white vixen immediately got back up and had a knife in her hand, but then realized that it was another teenager. “Oh, sorry about that.” she apologized. Steven moved his cap upward for the first time and looked at the white vixen. “Where are you going in such a hurry? All the guards have been taken out.” he said calmly. The white vixen scoffed, “Yeah I know, but the real problem is up that staircase. The warden thinks he’s going to get away with this and I’m going to show him who’s really the boss.” she responded and began walking up the stairs.

      “Wait, I’ll come with you. There are a lot of fighters who wants this guy dead. I just want to see the look on his face before he dies.” he stated. The white vixen smirked, then she turned towards the white fox, “By the way, what’s your name?” she asked. “Steven Banks, and yours?” he asked. “Tonya Jones. The number one fighter in New York.” she responded. “Ok miss everything, let’s see what you got when we go against the big man.” Steven stated. “My pleasure.” Tonya responded and they both began walking up the stairs to the fifteenth floor.

Meanwhile on the fourteenth floor…
      Bradley, Angel, Joane, and Jim ran up the stairs and checked the hallways. “Alright, it’s pretty clear here.” Bradley said quickly. Suddenly a velvet vixen, pink vixen, orange fox with shades, and a blue fox ran up the stairs. Jim and his group quickly pointed their weapons at them, but then noticed that they were not guards. “Sorry about that.” Jim stated. The pink vixen waved her hand in front of her as if to brush it off. “No problem, we all feel like that right now.” she stated. Suddenly a red vixen with black flowing hair and a brown fox with a white echidna opened a stairway door. “Jake, I see you want a piece of the action too.” Edward stated. Jake nodded and then joined the others. Another two vixens joined as well as the elevator opened up. It was a white vixen and a red vixen. “Seneca.” Veronica stated and went to hug her. “I thought you and Jay were dead. We heard gunshots downstairs and then that frantic call you gave about Jay. Wait, where is he?” she asked. “He was carried away by two fighters back to his base.” Christine stated. “Looks like we have something in common. We all want to kill the warden in this place.” Crystal stated. They all nodded and then loaded their weapons. “Let’s go show them how it’s done then.” Bruce stated and walked up the stairs to the fifteenth floor. The rest of them did the same and knew that this was the beginning of a strong revolution.
