“Shit.” Pandora breathed, looking down at her phone. She hadn’t heard from Aaliyah in a while and she knew that something had been happening at the castle, but she’d never realized it was so bad. Lliyah figured that a vague ‘don’t come to the castle’ text was adequate but Panda had other ideas and had contacted one of the other people living up there. 

She heard a quiet ‘what’s wrong’ from behind her and turned around to see the person sitting behind her. She realized now that the bus wasn’t the best place for this. 

Event Update 

While the Castle has been surrounded by rumors all week, no one had been able to get a clear answer from them. Some think it might be an attack from the Red Dragon, others think it was nothing but a small fire. But either way, everyone knows that something is going on and no one is willing to give them a clear answer.

The members of the Castle didn’t want to concern anyone. They tried their best to solve the things that have been going on internally. But maybe they should have warned their citizens. Because now, no one is prepared for what’s to come.

Prison Break First Week Round Up and what’s to come!

We’re going to catch you up on what happened and what’s going to be next!

Maya was shaking, her breath heaving in and out of lungs as she stumbled down the grassy bank, letting her legs give way and dropping the rucksack Lucille had given her. There were twigs in the grassy and they jabbed into her stomach as she let the weight of her body tumble her down, but it felt so good. There was fresh hair here, no bars and no walls to confine her. 

The Hunter laid at the bottom of the hill, catching her breath and letting her thoughts settle for a moment before sitting up. That woman had given her a pack with what she’d need; clothes,  money... the only thing that she planned to keep from those dirty cells was the phone that stranger Karin had given to her. She pulled herself up and grabbed the pack, dragging it over to her and opened it up. The clothes were all black, and there were no shoes. She supposed that she’d have to keep the boots she had on already. 

It took moments for her to completely change, even with her body trembling the way it was. When she was done she just kicked the bag into the ditch, pushing the phone and money into her back pocket and looking around to check that nobody was around. She couldn’t see anyone and went on her way, eventually finding the road side. 

There didn’t seem to be anyone around, but that didn’t last long. A pair of headlights approached and she ducked quickly into the treeline, expecting them to drive right past, but when they didn’t she got worried, watching the driver pull over and get out of the car. 

“Where have you- nevermind, you took long enough, follow me.” She could see from his clothes that he was with the Amstyne fire service, she’d called them over fifteen minutes ago, this place could have burned down by now but it didn’t matter anymore, she just needed to show him where he was supposed to be going. 

“You can’t be here, you need to get inside and to one of the check points.” 

"Ah, Shit.” During hitting the alarm off, she’d cut her wrist on the broken glass but it would heal soon enough. She pushed her gun back into her belt and watched as four guards came rushing down the stairs to see what had happened. 

“You and you, tend to Kincaid” She pointed to the guard that had been laying on the floor since she got here. “He has a head wound and probably smoke inhalation, get him to the infirmary now.” Another two came from the other stairway and she turned to them. “You two, grab something to put out those flames, and you two.” Her attention swung back to the other idle guards. “Follow me.” 

Dee lead them both back up to the court yard and into fresh air,  they couldn’t have been more useless but she needed them to get more man power. “You, go get the talkie from the guard tower and call in backup.” The short, scrawny one went packing and her attention returned to the taller of the two. “I need to you to stay here. Watch the area and don’t, for any reason, leave. Got it?” He probably didn’t get it but she didn’t have time to waste, she was already on her way through the yard and ready to find the High Council members to make sure they were safe. She could hear people rushing around inside the walls but until she could see them, she had no idea who was in there or who may have been injured. 

Just as she was about to let herself in, she heard footsteps coming toward her on her right and looked up, relieved to see one member of the Council looking unharmed. “M’am I need you to get back inside now.” 

Her ears were ringing and for a moment, she couldn’t remember why. She had been on the guard tower at the Castle all morning, filling in for a sick guard. She wasn’t supposed to be here, there was a bad feeling about it, but it wasn’t her decision. Something felt off but she had ignored it as unfamiliarity with the grounds. 

It became clear that wasn’t the case when a loud BANG erupted from the cell room beneath the courtyard. Dee had been knocked to the ground and hit her head but she wasn’t going to let it keep her down. Though her vision was a little blurry, she could see the smoke already seeping from the stairwell below and made the decision to get herself up immediately, checking that her gun was packed into her belt before taking off.

When she got to the cell room entrance, it was the smells that hit her first. Not just the smoke or the burning, but the animal smell. There were unfamiliar scents rushing around down there, up the stairs and all the way past her, through the corridor door. She must have missed them when she was rushing down here, but it didn’t matter, someone else was bound to catch them. She focused on searching the area for bodies. There was one laying against the wall, dressed in a guard’s uniform and bleeding from the head. Dee was ready to administer first aid when she heard a scuffle from the corner and she pulled her gun up, holding it out in front of her. “Show yourself!” She screamed out into the fog of black smoke. Nothing answered. She could hear the breathing of the knocked guard on the floor but nothing else. 

Lowering the gun slowly Dionne knelt beside the body and shook it slightly, begging for a response but there wasn’t one. She pulled up her name badge, reading the thing silently. “Come on you shit, are you awake? Kincaid? Can you hear me?” Again, nothing. There wasn’t much she could do for him here so she focused on what she could do, raising her gun again to look through the already thinning smoke and got to her feet. She could see now that the doors to each cell were blown off.  Panic began to set in. These were where the Hunters were, but.. she stepped forward, taking a look into each of them, all six.

The prisoners were gone. All six Hunters were gone.
