Prison

                       

     At 7:15, the bars lock shut. The guards make sure all of the prisoners are in their cells. Prisoners may only leave their cells when the alarm rings.

      Each prisoner is faced with a 4 year sentence for an unknown crime. Prisoners who fail to meet good behavior in 4 years are sentenced to more years in prison.

     At 10:20, the alarm sounds for the first level prisoners to eat lunch. If riots break out, the warden will send some prisoners to isolation while giving others a speech about respect. A strict dress code is implemented.

        Illegal substances like food are not permitted in the prisoners’ cells because they jeopardize the safety of other prisoners. Smuggling the illegal contraband is subject to severe punishment. Only the guards have permission to such privileges.               

      At 2:05, the final alarm sounds. Prisoners are under the illusion that the rest of the time is their own. However, the guards assign special recreations to keep prisoners busy and out of trouble. The nightly recreation is long and tedious. Once completed, prisoners have no more “free time” and must go to bed immediately.

You know… Just a typical day at high school.
