4-A plan that just might work

All of the sligs used their keys to open the cells and lead separate groups of humans down the elevator, because it could only so many at a time. The work that the humans were going to do is in the back of the lobby, which the energy room. It is a giant tower that runs the gears, nuts, and bolts of the O.H.C. The tower is about ten feet bigger than the O.H.C, and it needs fixing about every six weeks. It was the job that Ryan and Carla dreaded.
I must have forgot to mention this in the beginning of the story. The humans of the O.H.C of all ages work on any job. Yes, they work no matter how young, and no matter how old. Even the newborns work. But don’t worry, their jobs are small and easy to complete. It’s the same with seniors, too.
Once all of the humans were in the tower, they got to work. The strong ones got to go higher up the tower, where all the harder work was done. They got up there by using hand-used elevators, which you would have to pull on a rope in order to raise it. Ryan and Carla working on the very base, because they have to wait three more years until they can use the elevator. That’s right. The O.H.C’s policy is that humans under fifteen may NOT use the hand-used elevator for working.
As Ryan worked, he had been cooking up some terrible thoughts in his head. ‘I can’t believe I have to do this for four hours straight. I may have done this a million times, but I still don’t like it. I know something that’ll make me happy. How about Kill-Gun commits suicide. Then, nobody will run the factory, and the humans can finally run free into the outside land known as Oddworld! Wait, that won’t work. I guess I’ll just have to escape. The question is how exactly do I get out of here?’
As Ryan was working on fixing a few gears, he looked around while thinking of a plan. After a while, something came to him.
‘That’s it!’ He thought. ‘If I could just use one of the elevators, I could dive into that hole! There, I’ll brace myself for a hard fall and get into the sewers of this place. If I follow the sewers to the end, maybe I’ll find a manhole. I’ll opened the manhole, and then I’ll finally be in the outside world!’
All of a sudden, he formed an odious grin on his face. He walked up to Carla. It seemed that she was using a wrench a little bit bigger than her to tighten the old nuts and bolts of the gears.
“Carla.” Ryan whispered.
Carla had turned around and stopped using the wrench.
“What do you want?” She asked.
“Just come with me.” Ordered Ryan.
“Why?”
“You’ll see. Just don’t say a single word until I say so, or else I’ll never speak to you again.”
Carla followed close behind Ryan. All of a sudden, Ryan yelled out, “Hey, you sligs!”
All of the sligs turned around and faced Ryan.
“Kill-Gun told me to send you guys a message.”
“What is it?” Asked the sligs.
“He said that you guys could have the day off today.”
With sligs being careless of guarding them, they cheered and ran off. Ryan and Carla walked up to an elevator.
“Help me pull on the rope.” Ordered Ryan.
Carla did as he said. They both pulled the rope, which pulled them up higher and higher every try. Once the got close to the hole on the wall, he told Carla that they both should jump in the hole on the count to three. When Ryan said three, they jumped in. They barely made it, but now they were falling at a high speed and both of them were screaming. They should be lucky the humans just worked and didn’t notice them.
“Brace yourself!” Ryan yelled to Carla.
