Later this day, Lenard is doing a thing that each of the inmates has to do here, clean the paved roads, basketball courts and football courts with only a broom. Lenard has gotten a broken broom from a guard who used it a lot to fight inmates who aren't following any damn order.
Lenard is sweeping the paths who are leading from the door to the "playgrounds". He does this for about twelve minutes until an inmate threw a cigar butt on the path, and he showed to him the middle finger. But before Lenard could respond, Rodriguez came, and he ordered the man to take that cigar butt. He immediately took it, apologize to Lenard, and he tried to run away, but Rodriguez caught, and he drags him to a trash bin, there he put the man into the trash bin, and he said to him in an angry manner.
"Someone is doing a job for this place. And you disrespect their job!"
"I am sorry! I'm sorry! Please don't punch me!" says the man trying to get a solution out of this mess, but Rodriguez didn't even want to punch him, he just let the man there, stuck into the trash bin.
Rodriguez came to Lenard, which thanked Rodriguez for doing that, but he also tells him that it didn't have to go this far. Rodriguez only said that the guy would have deserved it worse if he was trying to make a fight while he was working, and this made Lenard feeling weird because he got someone who is wiling to protect him at any costs.
"Anyway. Do you need some help?" asks Rodriguez.
"No, thanks." replies Lenard, sweeping. "I can do this by myself."
"Hey!" says a guard coming to Lenard with a spare broom, and he looks at Rodriguez. "You two must be cellmate! Anyway. Take this big fella!". He hands a spare broom to Rodriguez, who proceeds to clean up with Lenard paths.
"Looks like I do not have a choice." says Rodriguez to Lenard.
"Alright. Both of us will be able to finish faster." says Lenard.
These two friends starts to clean the entire roads by using brooms provided by the Guards of this prison. After they got to an intersection, Lenard is taking the one who leads to the outside gym, and Lenard is taking the one which leads to the Basketball court.
This cleaning take almost the entire afternoon, but it was worth it, the whole yard seemed much cleaner than earlier, even though inmates would always come here and get dirty. Probably the hardest thing to clean up here would be the blood from the basketball courts since it always get everyday blood either from tough matches or people having a brawl.
When they finished cleaning the entire yard, two guards are coming to inspect these paths they cleaned up. These guards are the one who are patrolling in the yard, and also one of the toughest guards on this entire prison in terms of fighting. After the inspection, the guards looked at those two, and they say with an intimidated aura.
"You two have done a good job. Now go and carry on your sentences."
"Thank you." says Rodriguez to the guard who is going in the front to his cell, and is followed by Lenard.
When they entered the prison, they got greeted by four inmates from East Block who are looking extremely aggressive. They were screaming that they demand "Revenge!" and this made Lenard nervous, and Rodriguez clueless. When an inmate was close to jump with a knife to Lenard, Rodriguez grab the hand with the knife, he twisted the arm, and he took the knife, throwing it into the ceiling and getting fixed there, even though the ceiling it is hard as cement.
"On them!" says an inmate to the other two when the one who did a reckless move lies on the floor.
These two inmates were jumping to Lenard, but he managed to knocked them out by using that brass knuckle the North King Block gave to him earlier. He smashed someone teeth and the smashed someone chest, all with one hit. This made Rodriguez surprised by the weapon Lenard has it, and he was close to ask where he got that because there was still one inmate who was close to stab Rodriguez with a fork, but he took it from his hands, and he kicked his face, which made him fly into the wall and fall on the floor, like a drunk man.
There was another inmate still standing, but he decides to run, and he says to Lenard.
"All the East Block it will be with your eyes on you, Mr. Criminal!"
"What is he talking about?" asks Rodriguez to Lenard while puts his weapons back to the underwear. "And where did you get those?"
"I will explain to you on our cell. Right now we must go back there before another member of East block shows up."
"Alright."
These two are going on fast pace to the North Block, ignoring anybody on these hallways.
