Zeus Does A Small Favor

▸Can't Fight This Feeling - RED Speedwagon

A jolt woke me up. Rapidly blinking my eyes, I tried to sit up. My arms were constricted, not allowing them to move. Once I glanced down at my arms and noticed the rope wrapped tightly around me is when I remembered the two people who put me in this situation. With calculating eyes, I scanned my environment. Each corner of the area was covered in dark grey metals and black seats similar to the quinjet.

My heart dropped once I noticed it was a jet of sorts. Waves of adrenaline shot through me. I quickly looked for the man and woman who did this to me, seeing them in cock pit of the jet.

I managed to get to my feet quietly. I have to get off of this plane. My right hand shot towards my left wrist about to tap my charm when I heard the woman talking.

"I'm going to go check on our package. Be right back." Glancing over my shoulder, I saw her existing the cock pit. Her eyes widened when she saw me. "Dave! She's awake."

I cursed in Ancient Greek and started to run towards her. The woman panicked, frantically searching for a weapon. I kicked my leg up high, wrapping it around her neck and yanking it down causing her to hit her face on the ground. Not wasting any time, I tapped my charm. I held the sword up wards as it grew, cutting the rope off of me.

Sighing in relief, I turned my sword back into a charm and placed it back onto my bracelet. A small hiss echoed in the aircraft before I felt a sting. Looking down at my thigh, I saw an all too familiar tranquilizer. Gritting my teeth, I yanked it out and threw it to the side. I turned to glare at the lady.

"What the hell?" I spit out.

"Dave, the tranquilizer isn't working fast enough!" The lady yelled out, holding a gun at my chest. "What the hell are you? That should have knocked out a regular werewolf!"

"Shoot her with another!" Dave shot back, as he unbuckled his seatbelt.

"I'm your worst nightmare." I narrowed my eyes at the older lady. Taking a menacing step forward, another tranquilizer hit me in the shoulder. I yanked it out and threw it back at her, the dart locating itself into her arm. Her eyes started to droop before they closed, her body falling to the ground.

"I guess the darts aren't working for ya, guess we'll do this the hard way." Dave cracked his knuckles before swinging his arm. I quickly caught it, twisting it around his back.

"Who are you guys and what the hell do you want from me?" I asked. He stayed silent. Holding back my temper, I pulled his hand closer to his spine.

"Someone special wants you." Dave groaned out.

"And who is that?" I pressed further, my mind wandering towards the Triumvirate group. Instead of replying, he threw his head back hitting my nose. I gasped, shoving him away. Wiggling my nose, I glared at him as he turned to face me. I upper cut him before falling onto my knee and swiping my leg at his ankles. He fell, throwing curses at me.

Dave quickly got up and ran at me, raising his leg up to do a round house kick when the plane jumped. I squeal flew from my lips as I stumbled towards a seat. Dave staggered backwards, tripping over a row of seats. Whispering curses in Ancient Greek towards Zeus for choosing the worst time to throw turbulence at me, I slowly let go the seat.
