This story takes place a few years after Snake Plissken shut down the world's power following his Escape from LA. The power had been restored by this time of course. This is a story about Escaping from earth which had become a prison after scientists found another suitable planet for humans to live on. I will post chapters to this story once or twice a day maybe even more if I really get into writing to it.
Chapter 1
It was 9 am and the sun was shining brightly in the sky the president of the United States stood proudly with the head scientist that had discovered a planet that was an equivalent to earth. It took nearly twelve years of planning and building to turn this new planet into a place that humans could live. Finally the day had come to bring all of earth’s worthy people to this new planet in large spacecrafts that could carry a decent amount of people. The world’s leaders each chose 500 people from each country in the world whom they thought worthy to live on the new earth to board these spacecrafts and leave the old earth behind. Scientists have decided to call this new earth the new world, a new way of life would begin all who were deemed sinners, criminals, or immoral were now to be considered prisoners of earth. The planet earth was about to be turned into a massive prison, as soon as all spacecrafts were launched and the people in them were safely on their way to the new world all the prisons around the world were to be opened and the criminals inside them released to live amongst the rest of earths prisoners. As soon as those spacecrafts were gone all laws and safety went with them.
The news cameras pointed at the president of the United States as he stood in front of the launch pad that would be sending the ship he was boarding to the new world. All other passengers were already on the ships and ready to go, high voltage gates surrounded the entire area around the launch site so that no outsiders could get in the charge would be turned off as soon as the ships left via remote control within the presidents spacecraft. After the cameras were turned on and he knew he was broadcasting throughout the entire world he stepped forward a few inches and looked into the camera. His face along with the rest of the world’s leaders faces appeared on every television around earth.
“Today we make history, we leave this disgusting sin filled planet to start a new world, one without sin, without violence, and without criminals” ,the president began. His words being translated by the other worlds leaders to their countries as well. “We will leave all you sinners and criminals to live amongst each other and without laws just as you all wanted I bid this disgusting planet farewell”. With that he boarded his spacecraft and the doors were shut and people around the world watched on their television sets as they were made prisoners for life.
About two hours after the shuttles were launched all prisons were unlocked and the prisoners that had been held inside piled out into streets around the world. Innocent people were being attacked, people who were stuck there for getting tattoos or listening to the wrong kind of music, simple things that were considered crimes, were now being attacked by murderers, rapists, and other hardcore criminals all because they were looked at as unfit to live in the new world.
Kasey made her way through the chaos that had overtaken the streets of Huntsville, Texas. The prisoners of Huntsville Unit were on a rampage grabbing up whoever they could get their hands on luckily Kasey had something they didn’t have just yet and that was a gun. She was a marine and one of the best there was but was left behind for having tattoos and cutting and dying her hair. Kasey was looking for someone and it was clear, she could’ve gotten out of there before any of this happened but her little brother Deacon had run off and the two were separated. It wasn’t long before she spotted the boy, he was standing in the middle of the road with his stuffed dog in one hand and the other hand was in his mouth as he looked around curiously. The boy was completely oblivious to what was going on around him, he was only five years old and he was standing in the middle of mass chaos and he didn’t care. Kasey ran towards the boy shouting his name, when the boy heard her voice he looked straight at her and smiled brightly before he took his hand out of his mouth and waved excitedly. Just as Kasey was about to reach the boy she was grabbed from behind, she immediately went into defensive mode and grabbed the arm of the person and spun herself out of their grasp. She turned to face who grabbed her and seen a rather large man dressed in an orange prison uniform.
“A soldier girl huh? I’m gonna have some fun with you” ,he stated with a creepy little laugh.
Without hesitation she pulled her desert eagle from the holster and shot the guy point blank between the eyes. “Fuck you” ,she said under her breath before turning to face the boy who now had his arms outstretched waiting for her to pick him up. Kasey scooped the boy up and began to run as fast as she could away from the crowd. A group of prisoners that seen her shoot the other prisoner had started to chase after her and the boy shouting nasty comments at them. She turned onto one of the few empty streets that were close by and ran down it as fast as she could trying to lose the group of convicts that were after her and Deacon. About halfway down the street she was grabbed into an alleyway and shoved to the ground, Deacon crawled backwards and hid behind a dumpster as fast as he could. Before Kasey could turn to see who grabbed her she heard gunshots and with all the chaos going on and the adrenaline built up in her body she was unsure if she had been the one shot or not.
“Get up and move it, there will be more trust me” ,a gruff sounding voice came from behind her as a hand grabbed her by the back of the shirt and lifted her up to her feet. Without hesitation she did as the person said and moved grabbing Deacon along the way down the alley. She didn’t look behind her to see who had just saved her ass because she wasn’t sure if she wanted to know or not.
When they got to a relatively quiet area the woman went to turn around but was shoved lightly towards what looked to be a long driveway. She walked up it holding the boy tightly in her arms, Kasey had no clue where the hell this person was leading her or who they were but she had a gut feeling wherever they were going she and Deacon would be safer at then on the streets. When they reached the end of the driveway she stopped but again was shoved lightly towards the large house sitting there, it looked unkempt and it was surrounded by trees, in fact the driveway even had grass and plants growing through the cracks in the pavement. She hesitantly made her way up to the door and before she could reach out for the handle the door swung open and a woman that looked to be in her late forties sighed with relief and gave her a smile. “Get in there what are ya waiting for?” The person that led them there stated before again shoving her lightly.
As Kasey made her way into the large but rundown house she looked around and noticed at least ten people in the first room. “Hey little boy why don’t you come play with us” ,a small girl around Deacon’s age stated with a smile. “It’s ok the man with the eye patch says we’re safe and can play now” ,she continued. Deacon looked at Kasey his hand in his mouth again, his eyes were pleading and he turned to look at the girl. “OK but I’m gonna stay right here with you guys alright” ,Kasey stated before setting the boy down and watching him make his way over to the girl and two other kids.
Kasey thought about what the little girl had just said and tried to make some sense of it, who in the hell was this man with the eye patch. Her thoughts were broken by a cloud of cigarette smoke going into her face she coughed a little then turned around to look at who was smoking and came face to face with who the little girl must’ve been talking about. The man wasn’t much taller then her and he was wearing a pair of camo pants and a black sleeveless shirt, a cigarette hung from his lips as he took a long drag off of it and he wore an eye patch. He had just saved her and Deacon from those creeps, he didn’t look like the hero type at all but what mattered was that he indeed saved them and without hesitation Kasey threw her arms around the man and hugged him tightly. “Thank you” ,she whispered into his ear before letting go of him.
Snake looked at the woman after she let go of him then down to the boy who was with her. “You’ll be safe here for now but we’ll all have to move from this place eventually but that won’t be for a while, get comfortable while you can” ,he told her. He looked the woman over noticing that she was in uniform, “Soldier huh?” ,he asked as his gaze stopped at her dog tags.
Kasey nodded at his question, “United States Marine Corps….” ,she began. She sighed, “I fought for my country for years and this is how they repay me, all because I got a few tattoos and cut my hair, the president called me a dyke and relieved me of duty in front of my entire team when I went to be evaluated for a chance to go to the new world” ,she continued. “The whole government is fucking insane, I seen some shit that you wouldn’t believe”.
“Trust me honey I know what you mean” ,Snake stated in response with a small laugh. He knew right then and there that the woman had no idea who he was and he liked that, of course the secret probably wouldn’t last long at all and she would eventually find out but for now he was content with her being blissfully ignorant. “Well sergeant since you know you’re way around weapons and a battlefield you’re going to be a great asset to this group, I’ll let you know everything after you get something to eat, there’s a woman cooking for everyone in the kitchen you and the boy go get a plate”.
“But I’m not hungry, Deacon might be so he can eat but I’m too damn worked up to eat” ,Kasey told him. She was sure she’d be starving as soon as the adrenaline rush calmed down but for now she was just concerned about Deacon and what the hell their next move was and if this man knew of places to go that they would be safe then Kasey wanted to know and help with whatever was needed.
“Suit yourself I don’t know if it’ll be available later though” ,Snake stated in response as he took another drag from his cigarette.
“I wanna know what’s going on and who you are, you said we would have to move eventually where are we going? How many people are there here? And who the fuck are you?” ,Kasey asked. She was still slightly on guard and with her previous profession it was expected.
“Relax like I said you’re safe you’ll figure things out soon enough” ,Snake told her in response. His tone had a hint of aggravation in it as he responded.
Kasey shook here head then pulled her gun on the man, “No you’ll tell me now” ,she demanded.
Snake just looked at her and laughed, “I’ll tell you later” ,he stated simply.
Kasey was about to cock the hammer back but Snake grabbed her arm and flipped her onto her back. He held her arm tightly as he disarmed her.
“LET ME GO YOU ASSHOLE!” ,Kasey yelled before swinging her legs up and wrapping them around his neck until he let go of her arm.
As soon as Snake let go of her arm Kasey got to her feet quickly, unfortunately Snake had gotten to his feet just as quickly. Kasey took a swing at Snake but was blocked, Snake went to try and flip her again but she swept his feet making him fall flat on his back. Kasey then reached down and grabbed his throat trying to pin him down but Snake planted his foot in her stomach and flipped her over onto her back. After going back and forth for about fifteen minutes the two stood in a fighting stance across from each other staring the other down.
“Uhm….guys….can you stop fighting?” ,Deacon’s voice came out from the silence that had fell over the room.
Both Snake and Kasey turned their heads to look at Deacon both he and his new friends were standing there wide eyed staring at the two. Kasey sighed, “I’m sorry Deacon come here” ,she stated. The boy walked over and hugged the woman’s leg then looked up to Snake. “Are you a good guy or not?” ,he demanded. The boy glared at him and it was clear he wasn’t happy with the fight that occurred between the man and his sister.
Snake laughed a little bit at the boys demanding tone, “I’m not a good guy or a bad guy but I can keep you safe, now go in that kitchen and get lunch” ,Snake then looked to the other two kids, “All of you” ,he stated firmly. The three kids made their way into the kitchen without any questions.
When the kids were out of sight Snake looked to Kasey, “I can see you’ve earned some stripes in the military….me too” ,he stated simply. “Now go sit down in the kitchen with everyone else” ,he continued. He went to grab her arm but she shoved him off.
“If you touch me again I’ll rip your fucking balls off and shove them down your throat” ,Kasey stated angrily. She made her way into the kitchen and took a seat next to Deacon who was eating a ham and cheese sandwich with some chips and a cup of juice.
“Here you go dear” ,an older woman stated as she placed a plate in front of Kasey. It was the same thing that Deacon had and it looked absolutely fantastic, even though Kasey said she wasn’t hungry she indeed was. “Thank you ma’am” ,Kasey stated before picking up one of the chips and eating it slowly.
Snake sat down directly across form the woman a look of satisfaction on his face, he had gotten what he wanted and that was for the woman to eat something. Kasey just glared at the man from across the table, she knew that she should be acting more grateful but the man’s stubbornness irked her.
When the three kids finished eating the woman that made the food cleaned up their plates then led them out of the kitchen and upstairs into one of the bedrooms and put them down for a nap. Kasey wanted to object but didn’t she had gotten a good vibe off of the woman and knew she was sweet, someone who didn’t deserve to be left here to suffer.
As soon as the woman was out of sight with the kids Snake looked to Kasey, “So you wanna know my plans huh?” ,he asked as he pulled another cigarette from his pack and lit it.
Kasey simply nodded her head, of course she wanted to know what his plans were. If she were to trust this man then she wanted to know what he was thinking and who he was.
“We’re gonna get the fuck off of this planet, I don’t know how just yet but we are none of you deserve to be here” ,Snake stated simply.
Kasey looked at the man as she chewed the last bite of her sandwich up, when she finished she took a sip of her juice then set the cup down. All of a sudden she burst out laughing, when she finally calmed down a bit she stood up, “I was saved by a fucking moron, you’re not serious are you?” ,Kasey asked. Before the man could answer she turned to walk off.
“I escaped both New York and Los Angeles what’s one more escape?” ,Snake stated right before the woman could leave the room.
Kasey paused and stopped dead in her tracks and slowly turned around, “I’ve heard about you….I thought you were dead, I thought the USPF had caught you and sentenced you to death after restoring the world’s power” ,she said in response. She slowly turned back around to face him, “Snake Plissken hm? Never thought I’d meet you, not in a million years”.
“The media likes to lie a lot” ,Snake stated simply before taking another drag off of his cigarette. “Now are you going to sit back down so we can talk, to be honest I didn’t think that a marine would be left behind on this planet” ,he continued. “So much for the never leave a man behind motto right?”
“Yeah so much for that, a few of my team members were left behind but they were all killed during the chaos earlier” ,she told him. “Alright well you say you want to escape this place but you don’t have a plan yet, how do we know if you’ll ever figure something out? You haven’t promised any of these people you were going to get them off of this planet have you?” ,she asked.
“I’m not stupid the only person I’ve mentioned anything to is you and that’s only because I’d need your help” ,Snake said in response.
When he gave his answer Kasey sighed with relief the last thing she wanted was for people to be filled with false hope. She noticed his pack of cigarettes sitting on the table between them and grabbed one out of it then grabbed one of the matches out of the box that was next to them and lit it. Kasey hadn’t smoked a cigarette in years but she needed something to calm her nerves and they were sitting right in front of her. She took a nice long drag of the cigarette then let the smoke out slowly. “What exactly do you need my help with?” ,Kasey finally asked in response to his statement.
“You’re a fucking marine, you know how to infiltrate, move around like a ghost, kill silently, I never thought I’d say this but….we’d make a good team. You see normally I work alone, it’s a lot easier and less messy but this time even I can admit I can’t do it by myself” ,Snake admitted.
Kasey listened as the man spoke, even if she still thought the idea was crazy she had to admit he made a few good points and if the two of them worked together it would be easier even if it turned out to be a failed attempt. If the two at least worked together while trying there was a chance they’d make it out alive at least. “Alright well we need a good solid plan if we’re even going to attempt this understand? Also this is going to take time so we’ll need plans to defend ourselves if attacked while here and no one but us knows anything until we know for sure that there’s a chance we can get the fuck off of this planet” ,Kasey stated right before taking another drag off of her cigarette.
Snake nodded in agreement to Kasey’s words, he knew she was right in fact he had already thought of everything she had mentioned in her little rant. “I agree we can start planning tomorrow morning for now let’s let everyone here get settled including you, we’re safe for now” ,he stated in response.
Kasey nodded in agreement then took another drag off of her cigarette and leaned back in her chair to get comfortable.

“You’re a fucking marine, you know how to infiltrate, move around like a ghost, kill silently, I never thought I’d say this but….we’d make a good team. You see normally I work alone, it’s a lot easier and less messy but this time even I can admit I can’t do it by myself” ,Snake admitted.
Kasey listened as the man spoke, even if she still thought the idea was crazy she had to admit he made a few good points and if the two of them worked together it would be easier even if it turned out to be a failed attempt. If the two at least worked together while trying there was a chance they’d make it out alive at least. “Alright well we need a good solid plan if we’re even going to attempt this understand? Also this is going to take time so we’ll need plans to defend ourselves if attacked while here and no one but us knows anything until we know for sure that there’s a chance we can get the fuck off of this planet” ,Kasey stated right before taking another drag off of her cigarette.
Snake nodded in agreement to Kasey’s words, he knew she was right in fact he had already thought of everything she had mentioned in her little rant. “I agree we can start planning tomorrow morning for now let’s let everyone here get settled including you, we’re safe for now” ,he stated in response.
Kasey nodded in agreement then took another drag off of her cigarette and leaned back in her chair to get comfortable.
