The plan was flawed, and relied to much on luck; the guards had to be at the perfect spot at the perfect time to get us to escape. Forget the plan... Reconfigure. The man who helped me didn't belong to a particular gang; that will soon change. He went through a tough 2 week initiation of beating and hazing but now he's part of "The Crimson Crew".
The prison was called Texas State Penitentiary it was one of the nicer prisons (if I had to choose). There were maybe 20 gangs. The most popular and most feared were the "Crimson Crew" they had the most authority next to the guards. The gang we are planing to take over is called "The 666's" they were by far the meanest, but not most powerful.
Starting a riot is no easy work. On the basket-ball court there was the leader of the 666's he was just standing idly near the basket. Watching the game I guess. I walked up to him and jabbed a sharpened spoon into a man's side; he shouted and threw a punch. everyone started to defend their gang, which meant to kill as many of the enemy as possible. The guards ran over with their pistols and stun guns, The emergency door was still open but shutting fast. I slipped away from the riot. I ran to it and slipped my body in just as it closed. I hurried into the warden's office. There was a change of clothes, I changed in a matter of seconds. There were no shackles or chains on me, it was free-time so they took them off for about an hour.
I grabbed a key-card and scanned it on the security door. I walked outside and I was free. With only 6 months of my 20 years served.
I am an escaped Convict.
