"Come on now, out to the yard for your little bit of fresh air before getting locked back up in this little room. Anyway, come on, don't cause any trouble." This guard seemed somewhat nice at least, sometimes it was a random luck of the draw what sort of guard ended up coming and talking to you or whatever. [@FantasyChic][@Morose] You two weren't so lucky as to the type of guard you got. The door swung open with a loud banging sound as the two basically were just staring at each other. "Alright you two, let's get a move on! The treacherous bastard and the rebel, surprised you two bits of scum were't having a nice conversation, now move!" he snapped at them, before he slammed his elbow into Jia Li's face, making a bit of a point, "Now let's move!" [hr][hr][center][h1][color=10DC67]Hikaru[/color][/h1][/center][hr][hr] She glanced over at her cell mate, and he'd be able to see that there was some fear in her eyes, well, not really a little bit of fear. More of like she was terrified of the idea that it might rain. [color=10DC67]"I-I-I don't really care too much for the rain... No offense or a-a-anything..."[/color] she sort of stammered out, before she glanced away. If it started raining while she was out there, she was likely going to end up dead. Sure, her hair had grown out to the proper length so it didn't look suspicious or anything, but she stayed far away from water, and didn't go outside if it looked like it could rain. Here though, she didn't really have much of a choice. There was a loud bang or something on the door to their cell, before it opened up and a few guards walked in. "Now, you two need to come with us, now. Outside time, and it's likely the only time you'll be out there," one of the guards snapped at the two of them, before he shoved Hikaru to the ground. It didn't help that she was easily the smallest person around, and the guard who shoved her was a few inches taller than Hiroyuki even. "Get up and let's go." Thankfully, she had made it so that even though she was young, she wouldn't cry. Any tears she might have ever had had dried up after the genocide. After she had lost everyone she had ever known. Slowly, she got to her feet, before she looked at the ground and stepped into the hallway. [hr][hr][center][h1][color=9C3E28]Ryuu[/color][/h1][/center][hr][hr] [color=9C3E28]"At the moment, I do not have a plan as to how to get out of here. But my recommendation is that we see if anyone causes any sort of trouble during our brief time in the courtyard, maybe then an opening will present itself, that is just from my perspective. And knowing those in this prison, a riot is very likely. Though an opening we can use is likely going to be very brief and might last a few seconds, at best... I've been thinking on how best to get out of here for a while... What do you plan to do if you do get out of here? For myself, it is to hunt down my brother, and slit his throat for betraying our entire kingdom."[/color] Ryuu said, looking at the man. The cell door than proceeded to open, and a few guards stepped into the room, looking at the two of them. Ryuu still had been rubbing his neck slightly, but his hand dropped when he saw the guards enter. One of them glanced up, looking at him with a hint of surprise before looking at the floor. [color=9C3E28]"I saw that look of surprise, no, I am not Sora Mori, you are confusing me for that traitor who I unfortunately have to call my twin brother... He does not have a scar on his neck like mine, only real difference between the two of us in appearance."[/color] "...Oh, right, well, anyway, time to go out into the courtyard if you two would come with us."
