Help my find the title of this short story!!!

[rabcee88]

It's a story that was in my 10th grade literature textbook for my English class. The story was part of the dystopian section. It was about some prisoners that were in for the long haul or facing execution. A prisoner tells a group of them that he has a plan to escape and they all follow the plan and end up escaping the prison and going to this utopian heaven like place where the prisoners start their new life and are eating something in abundance from the new place. At the end it is revealed that what they're eating is actually something like poison and the prisoner that helped the group escape is actually a guard or something and it's all a simulation and the prisoners are actually being executed but they think they actually escaped.

I read this story like in 2005, from a textbook.

Please help!

Thanks!

Can't help with the story, which sounds neat, but I'll move the thread over to Book Search where it might garner a little more attention from our more learned members.
