Yoshi looked up at the male in front of her... it was really him, the man she had seen in her dreams over and over. She was standing, looking right at him... close enough to reach out and touch him. He stared at her, long and hard for a few moments, making sure the guard was completely gone before she spoke.
“Who are you really?” his voice was hoarse, like it hadn’t really been used, or it was slowly fading from all the yelling.
“My name is Yoshi Rose Lee. I...” she started, but she soon lost her words. How could she explain it to him without sounding crazy? Because ‘I’ve been having dreams about you’ just didn’t seem to cut it and would most likely end in freaking him out.
“I’ve seen you before... and... we both want the same things, I hate the way the government runs things and I want people to be free....” she continued before stopping herself again.
‘Fuck it... just say it, tell him...’ she thought as she bit on her lower lip gently.
“I saw you in a dream, there something about you... Caine...” she finally finished, seeing the complete shock on his face, clearly thinking she was completely crazy as he backed himself up a tad.
‘Nice one Yoshi, now you’ve freaked him out... baka....’
“I’ve seen you too.”
Caine looked down, frantically looking for cover, to mask the personal secret he had just revealed.
Yoshi immediately caught on to his discomfort, trying to bring back the conversation where t had started, she sat next to him on the cold floor. He drew away.
“What dreams?” he asked, his voice croaky as he stayed his ground away from her.
“Dreams... of you and me... leading a revolution. Of where you are and what you’re doing, it’s like an insight into your brain.... have you had those dream? I thought it was some kind of connection between us. That meant the dreams happened... like.... Fate.” she spoke the last word with an odd expression, a mix of distaste and disgust, like she couldn’t believe she had said that simple word.
“So... it was you? The girl in my dreams?” Caine mused, clearly talking to himself rather than her, but Yoshi nodded none the less.
“I guess so.... I saw you on the news and I had to come and meet you.... Try and talk you into starting a revolution with me.... Will you do it, Caine? Will you join me in a revolution?” Yoshi’s face showed she wasn’t joking, there was no sign of her backing down ever. No sign she would regret this decision, and that seemed to spur Caine on, he nodded as he watched her.
“Yes, I will...” He replied, lacking in some of the females determination, but he was still there... still on board.
“Now lets get you out of here.! she smiled.
The two set about planning what to do to get him out, the guards didn’t return to collect Yoshi and get her to leave the cell, he left them to talk... Maybe that was because they were planning on executing Caine and believed some time with his sister was something had to give him. Or maybe it was simply because they were too stupid and self indulged to ever think someone would try and overthrow them. The government saw themselves as saints... Come to save the world. But they were a dictatorship... There was no freedom no matter what, the governments word was final, disagree and you are killed.
“We need to move fast, they’ll be getting the axe ready...” Yoshi muttered as she walked to the wall and began to tap on the stones, there should be on loose, and one loose meant the others could be loosened.
“Ah....” The female mumbled as she tapped a stone which moved back at her touch. “I’ve found the weak point.” she said as she looked over at Caine and grinned. Watching as he walked over to her and looked at the stones set back from the others.
“Now all we have to do is get some more loose.” he replied, eyeing the stone a moment before he slowly got it out, forming a nice little hole out of which the couple continued to pull stones away, setting them silently in a neat stack leaning against the wall beside them.
A small dust cloud had formed around the pair by the time they were finished, their clothes had dust on them, their hair and faces grimy and sweaty from all the heavy lifting, both young adults fringes were plastered to their faces in thin layers of swear. Yoshi used the back of her hand to wipe some sweaty dust from her cheek before she looked over to Caine and chuckled.
“You’re a mess” she smirked, making him look down at her and smirk back.
“You should look at yourself.” He teased, motioning to her face and clothes, looking down she noticed how dirty she was and shook her head.
“You owe me big time for this!”
“I don’t owe you anything, no one made you come here....”
“Fine then, I’ll leave you here and close this hole back up, you can stay in here and get killed!” she muttered as she began to shift the stones they had removed, as if to prove her point and show him she was serious.
A hand shot out in front of her, at lightening speed, making her blink as she looked up slowly.
“No need to be so hasty... It was just a joke, thank you for the help.” Caine said shyly as he looked down at her again as he eyed her, clearly put out by how serious she had been before, and how easily she had turned on him. She nodded slowly before she held out her hand, a wide grin spread on her lips.
“Come on... Let’s go start this revolution” she said gently before stepping through the hole they had made and out into the dark city. As they arrived on the other side of the wall, they took off at a sprint away from the prison, their bodies engulfed into the darkness, like a large black blanket wrapping them up in the night.
