We Meet Again 2

Forty-Two

(Writer)

These final chapters will be composed without a character POV.

Rose awakened shaky and confused after the attack. Although, it didn't particularly surprise her that Ivy 'the bed buddy' would turn on her for a better position in Scathe, just as she's done with the late Jelick, but what had her dumbfounded was that she did it with Aquarius and not Slade!

"Outrageous!" She'd said aloud, then tried to sit up from her position, only to find that her hands were cuffed behind the chair.

"What the hell... ugh, well this is unfortunate." She complained as she tried to wiggle free. Her activity stalled when she heard a low unfamiliar voice whispering out to her...

"Ms. ...Ms. ... are you okay?" Rose tried to focus on where the voice was coming from. As her vision completely cleared, there under an end table, she saw... Red's daughter?

"What are you doing in here kid? You know if Aquarius sees you, you're good as dead right?"

"Mr. Aquarius and the pretty lady with the dark hair left already. It's been ages, so I thought I'd check on you because I heard a loud thud to the floor, and you never came back out. I was hoping that you were alright so, I came here to help."

"That's real cute and all, but do I look like I'm the kind of person that wants to be helped? Your best bet is to get the hell out of here before I get free! I won't be held responsible for my actions." Rose said to her with anger in her eyes. Mar'i was frightened, thinking that she just laid eyes on the devil itself, then scurried away.

Of course Rose wasn't mad at the child, but the way she felt at the moment, anything and anybody in her path was going to perish. No one debases Revenger and lives to tell about it! However do you think the young one did as she was told?

Nope...

She just tucked herself into a small dark place in the room. Mar'i was very curious to observe the pretty woman with the white hair get herself out of this quandary. Unbeknownst to everyone in the organization, Rose held a secret. She was blessed with the gift of Hypermobility, or more commonly known as being double-jointed, and extremely flexible... like a contortionist.

Mar'i was in disbelief as she witnessed Ravager gracefully pull her legs up over her head, like she was a ballerina; maneuver her feet under the small space that she'd manipulated from bringing her shoulders forward; bending at the knees, then with brute force, she flung herself ahead, still in the chair, and with her body weight, and insanely strong leg muscles, she broke the chair... rendering herself free from it.

Mar'i covered her mouth in astonishment as she thought this was the coolest thing she's ever seen. Then a fuming Ravager bent her knees, scuttled her legs back up her body, pulled her arms forward like a rope, and climbed over her own cuffed hands. Now that her hands were in front of her, she raced around the room in search for the master key for the cuffs.

She wasn't successful in her search, so she did the next best thing. She twisted both her wrists in an odd way, then wiggled them out of the closed cuffs! Once freed from her restraints, Rose immediately grasped spiked broken pieces of the chair with the intent of impaling them through her girlfriend's ice-cold heart. She stormed towards the door, then stopped right at the entrance, looking out to the left side of her eye without turning her head, and said...

"I see that you're a hard-headed little girl! I thought I told you to leave. Were you entertained by that stunt that I just did, or are you just stupid?"

Mar'i them came from her hiding spot, cowering in fear. Rose held no expression in her façade except the fury of betrayal that she'd experienced... yet again!
