As Helena settled into her new life as a correctional officer in Millfield, Alabama, she began to realize that the job was not what she had expected. Her initial excitement at the prospect of working in the criminal justice system soon gave way to a sense of disillusionment.

The prison was overcrowded, and the conditions were inhumane. The inmates were treated like animals, and there was little effort made to rehabilitate them or prepare them for life outside of prison. Helena knew that something had to change, but she wasn't sure how to go about it.

As she went about her duties, Helena began to observe the inmates and their interactions with each other. She noticed that there were certain groups within the prison, and that there was a strict hierarchy among the inmates. She also noticed that some of the inmates were more vulnerable than others, and that they were often targeted by the more aggressive inmates.

Helena began to form a plan. She knew that she couldn't change the entire system, but she could make a difference in the lives of some of the inmates. She began to form relationships with the more vulnerable inmates, offering them guidance and support.

Over time, Helena's efforts began to pay off. The inmates she had helped began to show signs of progress, and some of them even expressed a desire to turn their lives around. Helena knew that it was a small victory, but it gave her hope.

As the months passed, Helena began to feel a sense of purpose in her new life. She knew that she had escaped from prison for a reason, and that reason was to make a difference in the lives of those around her. She also knew that her past was always looming over her, and that one wrong move could put everything at risk.

Helena was determined to keep moving forward. She had a new life now, and she wasn't going to let anything stand in her way. She was a woman with a mission, and she was going to see it through to the end.
