13 - Voice; we gotta save ourselves.

[hungryanhorny]

 [Faith's been bruised, beaten, dusty, and worst of all captured - she feels powerless, all her extra strength - even that little bit of extra oomph she had as a mere potential - drained from her in one fell swoop. 

She doesn't know what happened to Barbara; last Faith saw her, it was when she was drawing the soldiers awa from her charge - getting caught in her place.

Still... Having managed that much - giving Barbara a shot - puts a little extra confidence in her voice.]

Anyone else wanna get out of this place?

[paradoxlol]

I think you'll find unanimous agreement to that sentiment.

[hungryanhorny]

You ready to do something about it? 'Cause me? Not exactly fit for menial labor right now.

[paradoxlol]

I'm getting a group together and going in.

Is Ariadne with you?

[hungryanhorny]

Haven't seen her. [Might be a little stiff, there; she still remembers that breach where they kissed.]

[paradoxlol]

What about your surroundings? Any leads you can give me?

[hungryanhorny]

Lota rock; lot of labor; haven't seen much else.

[nolongerhollow]

I'm with you. I got myself brought into the labor section because I thought several of my friends might be brought here. Have you seen Zev? Claudia? Any of the others?

[He can't help but ask after Zev first, because she's had too much of this slavery crap already and...and...and well, he's not entirely rational when it comes to her.]

If you have a plan I would love to hear it. I was a warrior before I was a vampire.

[hungryanhorny]

Yeah; labor; figured it was the way to go. [Except it was a total accident, but whatever.]

Not yet; I'll keep my eye out, D; you notice a weakness in these guys?

[nolongerhollow]

They are both more robust and more technologically advanced than humans. I suspect their primary weakness, besides the throat, testicles and knees, would likely be their arrogance. As I once did, they see themselves as our betters almost to a fault. We can use that. Certainly it is worth a try.

[hungryanhorny]

What? Think that's gonna get everyone out?

[nolongerhollow]

Look. I'll be blunt. Tactically this is all very dangerous, and some of us will likely have to sacrifice ourselves for the freedom of the others. I'm fine with that. I have faith this will get sorted regardless, and I'm willing to face another Death Toll.

[hungryanhorny]

Can handle dying, D; just not leaving them behind. [It's different. Being dead means deathtolling; they're safe, if in pain. it's different than being a slave.]

[nolongerhollow]

Agreed.

The guard shift change is every six hours. We are coming up on another one within an hour and a half. The end and the beginning of a shift are a guard's most vulnerable times.

How many can we expect to back us?

[maxwells_demon]

[Duo here was beat up as well, nursing some scrapes and bruises of his own. Once he heard those magic words he rolled to sit, reaching up to his braid to pull out a lock pick or two.]

I'm in baby, just tell me where you need me. [Because flirting was exactly what they needed right now.]

[hungryanhorny]

Kicking someone in the ribs and running when they're down; we need to flood them. [Some of them might get killed - but it's better than leaving anyone behind; at least she know she'll wake up on the barge, and not in chains next time...]

[maxwells_demon]

[He pulled the pick out fully and started working on his chains.]

That I can do. Probably should use whatever we can for weapons, right?

[hungryanhorny]

You got something in mind?

[maxwells_demon]

[Click. His hand is free. Another few moments, his other hand. He picks up the chain between them and grins.]

These will do.

[hungryanhorny]

"Looks like." She smiled a little.

[maxwells_demon]

[Getting the ones at his ankles he moved to her to start picking off her cuffs.]

Lemme see. Won't take but a second here.

blah blah fuzzy time is awesome

[yeahscience]

whats plan?

Yay for fuzzies? D:

[hungryanhorny]

Shift changes in an hour; everyone makes a break for it. [She's even texting over the location they're all going to meet up, to force their way out of this place.]

[yeahscience]

thats it? just run?

[hungryanhorny]

You got a better idea? 'Cause I'm all ears.

[yeahscience]

[He'd started to have a plan earlier, if they could just come up with this or that. Hell, Mr. White had taught him how to make a bomb out of an Etch-A-Sketch. But all he has now is his chains.] guess ill c u in an hour
