"What? No- I can't!" Petree whined. "I'm- not- going- to- fight- Kodiak! Who made you so cruel?"
"What? No- I can't!" Petree whined. "I'm- not- going- to- fight- Kodiak! Who made you so cruel?"
"Quit whining," Nyir said, "and understand that this isn't cruelty. This is mercy." She refused to speak anymore. Soldiers dragged Petree off to a cell.
Yuki didn’t even break a sweat as she carried Rowan down the halls. “Look who’s carrying who.”, she laughed. As they approached the hall that would lead them to Kodiak’s cell, her face grew serious and emotionless. “Ready to see Kodiak?”, she asked Rowan.
Rowan sighed and steeled herself. "Yeah, lets go." She said solemnly. Rowan shifted slightly in Yuki's arms, almost dreading their encounter. Hopefully he'd be okay.
(Ugh I'm supposed to be sleeping but I don't wanna miss anything! XC)
(@SincereBeastie dude go to bed you can't stay up all day/night :P)
Kodiak simply nodded and retreated back into the shadows. There was nothing left for him now but to accept his fate and wait for the dawn to arrive, where he would see his last sunrise.
(I knowwww. You guys better not break him out, this is gon' be funnnn! XD)
"Did you not just hear me you numbskull?" Armand glared at the man. "You don't have to worry, tch" his teeth clicked. "Whatever. You'll see." He quickly marched back to the entrance best he could on his tired sore leg, nodding to the guards. "No one but officials are coming in, or out," Armand barked sternly at the men. "S-sir that's always a rule," One of them timidly spoke, only granting them a glare from the man. "Well then make sure you enforce it," He warned them, his shoes tapping against the stone floor as he stormed back to his office.
Yuki put Rowan back down on her feet. She snuck behind a corner as she watched Armand walk out the prison door. He gave the guards a command to not let any one but officials in. She silently cursed under her breath. Rowan seems to trust him, but obviously he isn’t helping us in any way besides healing her. He is loyal to President Harris. If given the command to, he would hurt poor Rowan. “Stay close to me.”, Yuki said to Rowan.
Rowan nodded, unable to see past Yuki. "Is everything okay?" She whispered, seeing the concerned look on Yuki's face.
(hey
hey guys
pokes
word of advice
don't die)
(Word of advice to you… Just let us break you out so you don’t die!)
(actually Armand's got a plan :P although either way i'm going to bed it's friggin past 9 i clocked out 2 hours ago)
(Ok. Goodnight! Btw, I stay up late sometimes and almost always stay up on weekends.)
"Hey!" Petree tried her best to punch Nyir, "How is this mercy?"
She kept banging on her cell doors to show her point.
"I don't want to fight! Rowan! Yuki! Heeeellllp!"
She felt so ashamed that she had to call on her friends for help and not break out herself.
"Nyir-" she played her trump card. "Do you know what made me a rebel? I'm a- normal person, like you! You wouldn't do this to one of your own! I'm sorry I did all of those terrible things!"
She tried her best to sound sorry, which, by the way, she was NOT sorry.
"Sorry, thief," Nyir was already disappearing from her view, "its over."
"No, it's not. You're going down." Petree muttered under her breath, "Lets see who's sorry after the gladiator battle."
“Everything’s fine, Rowan.” Yuki didn’t want to worry Rowan. “Just be careful who you trust.”
"I will…" Rowan trailed off, still nervous. She tugged slightly on Yuki's sleeve.
Yuki turned to face Rowan. ”What is it?”, she asked Rowan. “And don’t worry about the guards, I’ll take them out.”
"Don't hurt them too much." Rowan mumbled in reply, biting down on her lip with anxiety.
“I’ll just give them a beating. Y’know knock them out and all. It’ll be fine.”, Yuki said with a smile.
(Armand's such a loner lol)
(So you have a plan to break out Kodiak @SincereBeastie?)
"Alright." Rowan replied, obviously reluctant about the plan. "Just make it quick."
(Check out page 10)
Yuki automatically ran around the corner straight to where the guards were as soon as Rowan approved of the plan. The guards raised their guns. Finally! Time to punch someone! Yuki slammed into one of the guards. He fell into the other guard and his gun clattered to the floor. The first guard got up while the other guard scrambled to get his gun. Strong hands grabbed her shoulder, but not strong enough. Yuki twisted them off and put the guard in a wrist lock. She threw the guard in the wrist lock to the ground using a lot of force, right on top of the other guard. They both passed out. That’s how you get rid of a few soldiers! Yuki motioned to Rowan that is was okay to proceed. She felt victorious. “How’d you like that?”, she asked Rowan.
(Empathy punishment?)
(You gotta keep reading. I explained it as being this: A former coworker or someone related to the person can ask for an empathy punishment during the duel if it looks like they may die and feel 'empathy' for them. It's explained a little better there. You basically ask to trade their life for one of your own body parts removed)
(Ohh. Ok.)
(Pretty intense, thought it could be a lot of fun for everyone to watch Kodiak and Petree fight, I also kinda thought it could be when Armand stands up to Harris face-to-face and see where it goes from there.)
