Shado X Jess - Hidden Memories.

Chapter 2 - The First Flashback

Everyone was 'asleep' when Rick was taken out for testing. When they woke up, it was silent, too silent for them to realise Rick wasn't here. Jess spoke up first, "Well, he's either escaped and left us to rot here, or he has been taken in for testing." Tina answered, "I'm going to go with the second one."

"Yeah, well, at least it'll make him realise that this isn't a five star hotel and hopefully it will keep his mouth shut since he got his answers."

"Jess, I understand you don't like him. To be honest, I'm not fond either, but if he says he can help us escape, wouldn't you want his help?"

"I mean, sure. But I doubt he can do anything useful. I wonder why they brought him here, what good is he to them?"

"You know, Jess, you haven't exactly told us what you are capable of."

"It's gotta do with my looks, boys drool over me the moment they see me. Seduction is definitely my power."

"Alright then..."

It was silent after Jess and Tina's conversation. When Rick came back, he was being dragged by the two guards that brought him here. My god, his body was limp, he was still alive but barely. 

"Rick?" Tina started, hoping he could hear her, "What did they do to you?"

Hotty was the first to speak, "Did they..." Then Coldy, "...Hurt him?"

Now Jess, "None of us are getting out of here alive..." 

All of a sudden, they saw Rick's half open eye move, and he started laughing. He was faking it!

Tina was shocked, and mad, "Damn it, Rick! That wasn't funny!" After she said this, she started smiling. She was glad he was still here, even if he did get on her nerves a little.

Hotty was the first to speak, "Rick is..." Then Coldy, "...Alright!" Their ears perked up but they were too unhappy to smile, they were innocent children after all.

Jess was clearly smirking, amused about the situation, "Oh good, the clown's back." What she didn't expect was the Alsatian was look over at her. She stopped smiling and looked up at him, wondering what he's doing. "There's the kitty I told you about - makes you go weak at the knees, huh?"

Then the other dog, who was an English Bulldog, looked over at her, and back at him again, "You should be careful with their kind..."

"...Or just rough, hehe," He replied, with a suggestive grin on his face.

"What? Jeez, cut it out."

The Alsatian kept hold of Rick, whilst the Bulldog let go. They both walked up to Jess' cell and looked at her. "Just look at her, dude. Don't you think this kitty could use a nice, long bath?"

Whilst the guards were distracted by Jess, Rick took this opportunity to take the keys from the Alsatian. 

"Are you nuts? There's cameras everywhere!" The Bulldog answered, never taking his eyes off the feline. 

"So what? Who ever watches them except us?"

They just kept on watching her, mesmerized by her good looks.

"Whaddya say, kitty? You wanna join me for a shower?" The Alsatian asked her, whether it was rhetorical or not, she couldn't be sure.

"You know I think she does..."

Jess didn't answer, she just gave them both dirty looks, as if to tell them to piss off. Obviously, she wanted a bath, just not with horny guards.

"Later then, kitty..." The Alsatian walked said, lust in his voice. The guards walked away from her cell, and went to the one Rick was thrown in. 

"Try it, I dare you!" Jess exclaimed, annoyed after the whole ordeal. She sat on the 'bed' that she was sleeping on and tucked her knees into her chest, a sad look on her face. Nobody noticed this though because Nick was too busy being thrown back in the cell across from her, and there was a wall blocking everyone else's vision from her. The only one that could really see her was Bert, but he was being experimented on. 

Rick was thrown, again, back into his cell, and once he noticed that the guards have fully disappeared, he got to work in unlocking his cell. "Now, aren't you glad we got to know one another? Don't worry guys, I'll open your cells next then we can quit this dump!"

Suddenly, an alarm went off, and the prisoners thought they had already known that Rick has escaped. Tina chimed in, "This is gonna be the shortest escape in history - but I'm in!"
