She regained consciousness in prison, where a guard was watching her from behind the bars. Almost immediately, she reached for her leg, which was in the fire. It was also bleeding and she was afraid to check out, if something was broken. She hissed in pain.

"I warned you not to poke your nose into things you can't change," a Traitor-woman came out from the shadows.

"And who are you anyway? Some brothel mama?" She asked arrogantly.

"When the big Rat's done with you, you'll wish I'd let you kill you," she hissed in Theia's direction. Theia laughed slightly.

"Do you know how many times I've heard something like that?" She looked around. She noticed one small window just below the ceiling.

"You came here for opium, is that right?" she asked her. Theia frowned.

"Yes, but I came for everything," she looked into her eyes and the woman smiled. She gave the order to the guards. One left and the other opened the cell. They went inside together.

"We'll see how long your bravery lasts, little girl," the second guard came around the corner, holding a smaller container in his hands. Theia watched closely each his move. The first one held her hands and the woman kicked her leg with all her strength. She opened her mouth to scream, which the other guard took advantage of and poured the contents of the container into her mouth. The woman knelt down next to Theia and held her mouth and nose to swallow everything. Theia had no other choice and after it, she coughed hard. She raised her hateful gaze. She had a slight suspicion of what kind of liquid she had just drunk. She didn't wait for anything and stole the container from the guard's hands, which she smashed against the woman's head. She knelt down and kicked the sword out of the other guard's hand with her leg. She killed him immediately. The only one left grabbed her by the neck and pressed her against the bars. She promptly elbowed his arm, freed herself, but fell to the ground because of her injured leg. The guard smiled and grabbed her by the neck again. Theia pulled a short clip from her hair that no one had found and poked it into his eye. He let her go and fell to the knees holding his eye. Taking the opportunity, she came up behind him and broke the ligament. She let out a breath of exhaustion and staggered. She leaned against the cold prison wall and felt her head start to spin. But what she stopped feeling was the pain in her leg. She took the guard's sword, turned it and hit the bars on the window with the handle a few times with all strength. As she expected, after a while they broke up and with the help of both hands, she pulled herself up and pulled through the narrow opening. She looked around to see where she was. She was from the back of the building. With slow steps she walked down the path, towards the dirty buildings where she might get lost. Due to blurred vision, she could not see ahead properly and she was dragging her injured leg behind her.

"Levi," she whispered to herself. Her senses only noticed the tight embrace as she flew through the air. She raised her gaze to recognize a familiar, male face. She leaned against his chest and let herself be carried to safety. They hit the ground together and Levi pulled her to her feet.

"Where the fuck have you been?! I already thought that..." full of anger, he looked at Theia, who collapsed to the ground. His eyes fell to her feet where he noticed blood. His eyes widened. Again, without a word, he took her into his arms and carried her to the house. He put her on the bed, located in the smaller room and took out a wooden box from the closet, from which he took alcohol and bandages. "What happened?" He asked, while cutting the rest of her pants with his knife, freeing her wound.

"A little bit of this, a little bit of that," her tongue waggled. Levi nursed her in silence, watching with surprise that she didn't react painfully to any of his actions. Not even, after he poured alcohol directly into her wound.
