(Wow this one is long.)

Drift opens his eyes from his dreamless sleep and notices he's already sitting up. He looks around, yet his reflection is all he sees around him. He then notices that he's chained to a chair at the wrists, ankles, and neck. He looks at the shackles before scoffing.

Drift: Kinky, but I ain't into it.

Baelz: Vaga Drifter. You sit before the Council-

Drift: Where's Sarah?!

Baelz: She's safe. No harm will come to her from us.

Drift: If you're lying I'll beat you to death with my bare fuckin hands.

Baelz: The spider is-

Drift: Her name is Sarah.

Bae sighs in annoyance while glaring at Drift who returns it with his own.

Baelz: Sarah is safe.

Her voice carries a tinge of disappointment and disgust as she talks about Sarah. Drift sighs in relief as he catches some familiar scents and smirks.

Baelz: Now, you sit before the Council-

Drift: The same council I had completely on the ropes. Don't blame me for not being impressed.

Kronii growls and goes to stand up until she notices the smug smile on Drift's face. She leans back in her seat and crosses her arms.

Drift: By the way what's with this stupid mirror thing? It doesn't even work on my eyes.

They council all look at each other.

Sana: That's impossible.

Drift: You want proof? Mumei hold up any number of fingers, you can use one hand or two.

Mumei blinks before holding up two peace signs. Drift looks right at her and shakes his head with a smile.

Drift: Four. Both your middle and index fingers. Now can we get rid of this stupid thing? If I have to keep looking in these mirrors I'm gonna get self-conscious.

The mirror dome disappears in an instant. Drift looks at the council in their chairs and rolls his eyes.

Drift: God complex much?

Baelz: We at the Holocouncil w-

Drift yawns loudly cutting her off. Kronii slams her fist down on the podium in front of her cracking the wood.

Kronii: Is this all a game to you?!

Drift: Hardly. If this was a game, I'd be having fun. No. I'd personally call this... boring.

Baelz: You're trying to bait us into attacking you, so you can break those chains and run away.

Drift: I wouldn't say that. I'm personally not opposed to starting where we all left off.

Baelz: What do you plan on doing in this world?

Drift: I'm a more in the moment kinda guy. You don't tend to think about the future when you're trying desperately to survive today.

He looks down at his hands and flexes them a little with his an concentrated look on his face.

Baelz: We'll judge you for your past crimes to see if you're worthy to live. We. My God. What are you doing it's really distracting?

Drift: Getting outta these chains.

Kronii: I'd like to see that.

Drift points his fingertips together and suddenly lightning dances from one hand to another until it stops in his right hand. He turns his left wrist around until he can see the keyhole before pointing at it and making lightning shoot inside breaking the lock and setting his left hand free. He waste no time ripping the shackle off his right hand and then his neck before ripping both off of his ankles. He stretches his legs and arms before leaning back in his seat and crossing his right leg over his left while putting his hands behind his head.
