Chapter 11
Zera
I saw Cassian leave and I was somewhat glad. Though when he came back inside I knew something was wrong. The look on his face said so. I stood up from my position and went outside to take a look. The walls had green lines on them. No other color, but white was nearby. 3rd legion. I cursed mentally within my thoughts.
I turned back to Cassian and looked at him directly, "I'll help you get out of here alive. If you want out. Only for now will I help you." I didn't have time to waste.
"Let's start, so where the hell are we?!" He yelled and I was slightly annoyed.
"In the third legion." I quickly answered and looked out to the hallway seeing if anyone was coming down the hallway.
"Oh, so who do I kill first? Or do I just sit here and let you do something?." He asked. I could tell there was sarcasm within his sentence, but for now I couldn't and wouldn't care.
"You don't kill anyone yet. Unless they're in our way. I know how you like to spill blood." I kneeled down and pushed the inside on my wedged heel watching the compartment open. I grabbed the items within the compartment and closed it. STanding back up slowly I opened the items one by one to make them their actual size and shape. A gun started to take form in my hand and I put it in my holster. The knife appearing in my left hand I put in my other holster. I opened another item and put my mask on over my mouth and part of my nose. The little black balls that started appearing I put in the compartment within my bracelet.
I turned to Cassian finally, "Either we leave now or we get caught." I threw him a mask, "Just in case there's gas involved." I looked back out the hallway and saw a guard coming and I quickly crouched down in the dark room at a angle to see the guard better.
"I got a good idea. Obviously sneaking won't work against these guys, if you looked you'd see the cameras. But if we kill two guards and dress in their uniforms from inside the house, we may not get caught. It's just like the dome." He said.
I didn't answer him mainly because, yes, he was right, but I was in the blindspot of one of the cameras right now. I took a small needle from within my watch and threw it at a camera in the hallway. I watched as small electric sparks came out it showing that it was broken. Time was ticking and it wouldn't be long until they noticed something was up.
I watched silently waiting for another guard. As one soon walked passed me I followed behind him quietly and caught him in a headlock quickly. I felt him struggle a bit and I snapped his neck. I felt some anger disperse when I did that, it felt somewhat good to let my anger out on someone. For a second I almost understood Cassian, but I couldn't be like that. There would be too much at stake. I sighed and dragged the body back to the room and laid him in front of Cassian.
"You wanted the uniform. Here you go." I looked to Cassian finally.
Cassian
Well, she did it, no doubt about that, but she was too slow. I had already slit a throat and taken his suit. Her face wasn't happy. " what... the hell... is that?" nope, she was definitely not happy. " Well you took too long, so I just killed my own." she was silent. "Whatever." she picked up the body and chucked it through the window. It was almost like slo-mo. Watching the body slowly fly, perfectly fitting into the window slot. Her face went from mad to an "oh shit" face in a millisecond.
"What the hell was that! Is that a body!? We'd better check on the prisoners, they aren't supposed to be dead, not yet!" at least she had taken the armor off. Otherwise we'd be dead on the spot, which they didn't seem to want.
"Hide the armor Zera, we can't be caught. Ill pose as a guard." I was just going to stab them all, that would solve the problem, but then we'd have to worry about the armed guards when we got to the front gate. Man this is so boring.
"Jacob, what's with the prisoners?" Apparently that was my name. "Not much. The idiot girl is sleeping and the boy is probably hiding, so he can kill us when we aren't looking or some crap like that. But no it's fine guys, go back to your post." Zera gave me the most annoyed look I'd ever seen, but either way we were safe.
We were quiet the rest of the way there, and I'm pretty sure Zera actually fell asleep, and I almost did too but I had to stay awake. It might sound a bit stalkerish, but I checked all of her shoes and pockets to see if she had anything of value, and I wasn't disappointed. In her shoes I found a 5 maps, probably of each legion, and a butterfly knife. I gladly took the knife, and I studied all 5 maps very carefully, making sure I knew everything about them. I went to put the materials back and found one more thing.
It was a slip of paper. I carefully unfolded it thinking it may be another map, but instead it was a slip. A slip that stated Cassian, 658904, Outskirts first legion, Reward: 5000 dead or alive.
