An area as cold as ice where the lights of the torches are smaller than a finger, a dungeon surrounded by skilled assassins guarding each prison. In the dungeon in the very middle of the hallway with two familiar faces, one lying on the ground asleep with the other awake, It was Haruka and Chikako.
"Hey, wake up, wake up" Chikako repeatedly nogged her with her body as their hands were tied to the back of a job.
Haruka slowly opened her eyes to see Chikako in front of her face staring at her, "AHHHHHHHHHHHH"
In order to calm her down, she hopped towards and whispered "shhh quiet down"
"What do you think you're doing? Kidnapping me!"
"If I did I wouldn't have tied myself" as Chikako turned her shoulders and revealed her back with her hands tied together,
"Well no matter what you're saying, I'm not gonna fall for your act" she pulled herself the other way frowning at the same time.
Chikako lightly tumbled closer to her with her knees, "We can settle this another time, but right now we need to get out of here"
Her eyes suddenly widened but then instantly shook her head, "Get outta what!, into your classy act of yours"
"Believe it or not, there are skilled assassins who're gifted like us" as the two stared at the guards outside on each side. "once a prisoner escapes, their heads will be chopped to the ground"
"S-s-so we're just gonna have to sit here and wait until we die" her body began to tremble and soon her tears immediately came out of her eyes as she screamed "but I'm too young to die"
"HEY QUIET DOWN " as one of the assassin guards turned around and shaked the cage to scare them.
Chikako gently pulls her back as Haruka sobs, holding back her tears in her eyes. At the same time she reads the two assassins actions and movements trying to figure out how to take them down from the right time.
The other assassin guards tapped his shoulder and spoke "You don't have to worry about them, soon after their death, it'll be much more quieter"
As soon as the two guards returned to their positions, Haruka turned around with her arms holding her legs. "Now I'll never see the light of day again" her tears slowly came out of her eyes dripping down to her chin, "who cares, I'll just rot in this dungeon until I die"
Chikako quietly kneel in front of her and said "If you want to see the light of day again then you have to start by doing as I say"
She slowly lifted her head up and made eye contact with her, just as a sign of hope shone in her eyes in the moment of her miserable darkness. Her eyes had still flowed with watery tears but began to gleam like the stars.
"Look I know you don't trust me and I don't trust you either" Chikako spoke to her as if this is not the first time she's done this, who knows?, maybe there's a history behind that we may need to know "but right now we only have the two of us to rely on to get out of here alive"
"But how?, you said a prisoner will get their heads chopped if they escape"
"That only happens because any normal human beings recklessness" as she turned around and mischievously smiled at her, "but it might not happen to gifted people like us"
"What are you saying?" as she stared at her with her teeth trembling,
"What I'm saying is that we should work together to escape this place"
Haruka turned herself around while frowning at the same time, "What!, no way, I would never"
She silently sighs exhaling an air of relief from inside her, "Right now I'll give you two options, one is to die in this place alive or two cooperate with me so that the two of us can escape this filthy prison"
