Leonard Mead's Great Escape

Leonard Mead was checked in at the, and was sitting in his room, staring at the wall wondering what had happened and how he got into this mess. All he knew was that he needed to get out of there.

The building was 20 stories high and none of the rooms had windows. All the walls were pure white except for one. That one was wall was one giant T.V. Adjacent to the huge television set was a twin size bed with one pillow and an itchy grey blanket just long enough to cover his toes.

Days dragged on and on. Leonard has never watched for T.V. in his life. He had watch so much that he had seen the same karate program 27 times and could quote it word for word. Until one day his plan to escape was perfected.

One day, when he was supposed to be walking back from the cafeteria, he took a little detour just to find a nurse. Finally he cam across a male nurse named Carl. Remembering the moves from all the karate shows, he pulled a quick, unexpected move and dropped Carl to the ground unconscious. Leonard quickly drug Carl into a closet on put in him uniform and grabbed his key card that would open a back door.

He ran to the nearest exit and began to make a run for it. Then before Leonard could get 100 yards out, he was shot right though the head but one of the security guards. Little did he know, there were little hidden cameras everywhere and someone had been watching him the whole time.
