Ramsey Quinlan does not know exactly how she is going to do this. But she does know that whatever she does, she needs to make sure Rheta is free. Rheta has been trapped in the Heart of Glass City, locked away in a place that has been drinking her very life essence in. She knows that Rheta will not survive much longer trapped in that prison.
Ramsey walks into the overseer room, her Roseblooded elixir fueling her with so much power, she practically glows with the magick in her blood. Coursing through her veins is a powerful type of dragonflame.
She rifles through the files in the drawers behind the desk Mercury sits at in here. Ramsey searches for any signs of how to break Rheta out of her cage. Out of here, they need to just get out of here.
Finally, she finds Rheta's file in the final cabinet she opens. She opens it and begins to read.
Subject Name: Ingram, Rheta
Elder Witch
Powers: Undetermined
Subject is unstable, her power is limitless. Further testing is required to ascertain the depth of her abilities, as well as how strong they are. Subject is currently combined to the Heart of Glass City, used as a limitless battery. However, even her power source seems finite. Because of this, Ingram, Rheta, seems to be close to expiring. More tests to determine just how long that will be before it starts is needed. Subject might Fracture before the end of the current month. In the instance of her Fracture, there is a protocol to release her from the binds within the Heart. However, such release would alert all peoples with Level 5 Clearance or higher.
Protocol to release Ingram, Rheta from containment is as follows.
Ramsey sighs after studying the directions to disengage the wires that hold Rheta in place. She knows that she needs to get back to Aires, that if she is found outside of where she's meant to be, there will be extreme consequences.
Her heart heavy, Ramsey stuffs the file back in the cabinet, but pockets the notes she needs. Then, she summons her power, the sheer elemental force of her dragon side.
Closing her eyes, she concentrates on her room. The cell that is beside the one her only other friend is in. Aires is the only person aside from Rheta that Ramsey cares about. So, she decides she will get him out of here. Especially if he can help her save Rheta.
But then, a hand clamps down hard on her throat.
Her eyes fly open. She stares right at Mercury himself, as he sneers at her. "Ah, I knew you'd do something like this, little dragon bitch."
Ramsey feels her power surging through her veins like lava. She opens her mouth and a plume of lavender flames burns Mercury's face. He screams, releasing her.
She steps back from him, calling most of her dragon aspects to her physical appearance. Her long, Z-shaped horns that poke out of her head. The lavender and dark purple scales and leather wings, the claws and fangs, the blazing, slitted purple eyes.
Mercury staggers, trying to heal himself. But she is having none of it.
Ramsey screams, her hoarse voice breaking as she unleashes all her pent-up rage and the painful dam of her power ruptures. She feels everything as Ramsey unleashes herself. All of her lavender colored flames that burn the flesh of the elven warlock in front of her. All of the new additions to her weakened body. The Roseblooded elixir had truly been a miracle.
She grins as she approaches Mercury once more.
"Get fucked, Mercury."
