Thread: Bounty Hunters Part II: The New Era

"There's no phones here at Tartaros." Klay turned his head to look at a man that walked towards them. He had long spiky black colored hair, he was so tall that he practically reached the roof and had a muscular built that could be detailed through his uniform. "I haven't seen you in a long time Slayers."

".....Who are you?" Klay raised an eyebrow, only to see the man gasp in shock.

"I'm Peter." he stated simply, though that didn't seem to light any light bulbs for Klay. "I was with Kaiser's assassins two years ago, I fought with Evan during that mini tournament."

"Oh yeah....what did you do again?" Klay asked.

"I've been stuck here in Tartaros for two years ever since you guys beat us." Peter facepalmed. "But anyways, this prison is like completely away from civilization, you get put here and it's the same thing as dying in the surface."

"I see." Klay said and looked at Jakku. "I'm worried about Shimo too." he chuckled. "I hope she's okay."

OOC: Was wondering where she was XD, just ignore the she's alone in her cell parts then.

"Great, then we will have to escape the mortal way, and I really want to believe we could do that, it's the only thing that might prevent us all going insane eventually" Stephanie replied walking back to her bed, but not before punching a wall and grunting in pain. "I really hope she doesn't choose her" Stephanie muttered, picturing Kate's face, her warm smile and the way the two loved each other, it was still clear Kate wasn't over her, or she wouldn't have given her an choice in declaring her love for her, before some other woman did. She longed for both Kate and the use of her powers again, she never felt more powerless then she did right now.

At that moment Sakura heard a bell chime before seeing guards walk into the room, the prisoners began to scream and walk to their cells as the Guards began to slowly open them. "It's lunch time, follow us into the cafeteria!" the guards announced.

"Now we'll get a better chance of seeing this prison." Klay pointed out and stood up from the floor. "Let's put our escape off for now, we should try and familiarize ourselves with the place first."

Tye sighed, "And if I refuse?" He said to the guard at his cell, not even looking up at him.

"Tye, don't be stupid." Sakura said before Tye's throat began to be clenched against his own will, the guard stared at him, obviously using PSI on him before pushing him out of the cell and sending him crashing against the door of the cell on the other side.

"That." he stated simply. "With no skills you all are simple humans and your strenght, speed, endurance all of that is of an average human no matter how long you've trained."

"Great, looks like we will have to mingle with other prisoners" Stephanie said in a low voice, she honestly didn't know who she might end up meeting in this hellhole, but she had a few ideas. She stood up waiting to be escorted, glaring in the direction of the guard with an hateful look, however she said nothing as she did not want to be thrown like Tye was, she already felt useless.

Tye gasped as he hit the wall, he got up slowly, gripping his stomach. "Ow" He remarked in a weak voice. "I don't care how much you hurt me" Tye mumbled before following the other prisoners.

"For now let's just do what they tell us to." Sakura said before she walked over to Tye and help him up. "Tye, just put your pride aside and act like a big boy, thinking before speaking is better in this kind of situation while we're like this." Sakura nodded her head. She was still worried though, about what could've happened to both Shimo and Serah after they had been captured.

The prisoners were scolted through a few of the rooms and halls, they had to go up and down multiple stairs. They also had to walk through a bridge that looked over a large bowl like room, the room in turn was filled with large beasts. At the center of the bridge was an elevator tube with the elvator being at the bottom of the bowl. "The whole floor is locked up." Sakura nodded her head. "The only way to get out is through that elevator where the beasts are."

Tye sighed. "We're never getting out..."

Without their physical skills, the Slayers were down to nothing but their wits. Which meant that if they were getting out... It was up to Jack.

He was making a mental note of everything he saw and everything that seemed just a little off. He closed his eyes and considered their options.

Brine slapped Jack on the back of his head, "I may not be able to read minds but I can read your face like an open book, I get that it's all about wits, that doesn't mean it's all up to you, especially since you've been acting like a retard for the last couple days."

Jeremy, who had been listening, piped up, "Especially since I've been trained for tactical planning, and from what I've been able to observe Jakku and Evan seem to be more of the tacticians." Jeremy then turned to the guard, "Most of this team are idiots, is it too late to join you?"

"Just for that I'll be leaving you to rot." Jack didn't even open his eyes. "Your lack of tact is truly painful." He remarked. "But enough about that. I need to focus."

"Come on guys don't fight." Klay sighed and pocketed his hands. "We need to stick together in this situation if we all want to escape safely."

"Why are you even here?" Sakura lifted Jeremy form the ground and raised him up, due to the years of being experimented on she had received a bit of enhance strength. "Also you should stop being such a whiny little kid, it's not cute, especially from someone that isn't that strong to begin with besides." she dropped him down and glared at her. "Did you just call me an idiot?" he pointed out coldly.

"Could you shut up!"the guards yelled, causing the prisoners to look at them. "You're all here and now so just be quiet, there's no way for any prisoners to escape anyway even if they do get away from this floor."

After this the group entered a large room filled with multiple tables along with a set of four buffet lines that encased the tables in a square.

"We met Peter before, meaning that some of our other enemies may be here as well." Klay nodded his head and looked around the cafeteria.

"And that...could actually be a good thing." Sakura smiled.

"I have the architectural plans of the prison as well as the details of the True Warrior's escape in here." Jack murmured so only Klay could hear. "I've been seeing visions of both already..." He muttered. "I just need a day or two to straighten the visions out and formulate a plan."

'What I can't even fight if I wanted to. I'm a fucking mute again!' thought now that it was stuck to himself again.

Oddly enough mark didn't feel all to out of place in jail. His previous life made him feel not only deserving of it, but also it gave him knowledge of how to handle it. This was jsut on a much much bigger scale to him, but he was also mostly oblivious to how big this thing was. Being locked in a tiny cell with other people was one thing he did not handle well though. He always kept as far away as he could, but he was forced to be there with them full time.
