"Okay…Chill. Its not that serious." Bonneys eyes looked at Leroy with wide whites. "What ever!" Leroy said as he crossed his arms and sat back down. "So. Which way to we take?"
"Overhere. We need to make it down to Luxuria. But there could be a good chance the Guards are already flooding the levels. Or on their way to do so. I'm sure all the hot and cold cells are already being locked off." Hot and cold cells were 8 different small storage sections to the Prison that acted as Isolated, none level wide punishment.
Bonney came to one knee and began to push the vent out of the way. "Okay theres really no other way other than this?" Quinn asked as she crossed her arms "No! Now cmon. We've gotta crawl. "
The crawl space was even tighter than the last one and was a constant down ward slope. Causing quinn to get snagged and stuck every so often. At one point, Bonney looks back to see if they're keeping up. And Leroy-
"Ah!'" He suddenly screams "What?!" The clown asks "Sorry. Its just. You're so hard to look at…"
"Har Har!" He kicked back, bare foot into Leroys forehead. "Okay yeah fuck this" Suddenly. In one move-!
Leroy sat hunched against the vent and then with tremendous force kicked both feet out! And extended them through the Air! Breaking the vents and walls They all began to fall with in the few short meters from the gap where maintenance tunnels and pipes sat!
"Are you fuuuu!!!" Bonney screamed, While leroy reeled a fist back and and slammed it downward! Causing a giant whole to appear in the bottom! Gas filling the air as they fell through the whole! Leroy grabbing the two next to him, gas passing over them before he landed!
But before they'd even passed the hole! They were hit by an extreme force of wind that kept them elevated! "WAHH!" Quinn screamed, Leroys eyes burning from the force of wind into his eyes…With a thud and a roll they made it to the ground…
Eyes wandered the environment in front of them "Are you…Fucking grazy?!" Steady asked, catching his breath with heaving chest. "That was fun!" Quinn said.
"I am not! Taking any more Shafts! We get to the next Elevator and we make our way down! I have no time to fuck around and just pussyfoot around!" He said harshly and bluntly. The Clowns both grimaced at the retort…
As for what was around them. It was literally wind swept. Leroys hand brushed against the ground. It was smooth, but grainy. Like fine toothed sandpaper. There were buildings around, they were smooth as well. Loose whistling noise came from the window slits where figures past by them, arms out reached. There were statues around. In positions of yearning. Arms out reached down, out, up. Others pointed to buildings and strangely…Stair cases. Stair cases that weren't connected to any thing. Some were just sitting in the middle of an area, others were built to the walls. Going up, down, but none lead anywhere…
There were then people that scrabbled at Fig trees…They looked artificial. As if made of metal. But clearly bearing fruit. People eating and digging their teeth into them… "Those fruits…" Bonney began as each of them stood up. It was hard to even see too far ahead…Not even to the opposite side…
"What about em?" Leroy asked as he began to walk forward "Don't eat em. They fill the body with adrenaline and energy…Keeping one awake. Beyond their natural limits."
"And thats bad why?"
"It'll last well over a day. It also subdues the appetite…And once it runs out- You'll be so hungry you'll be reaching for another…"
Leroy pulled a fig from the tree, two, three four…Sure why not. A half dozen…You never know…
He stuffed them into his sash and pockets.
"Lets keep-" He turned around and saw that…Both Quinn and bonney were gone… "Bon?" He questioned. "Where the…Fuck em! God Damnit!" He swore before-
"Loy…" A voice spoke from behind him. Whipping around he saw…
Kirk.
"Kirk?!" He said walking after him…The man was…So far away! "Oi! Loy!"
"Kale?!" He whipped around again. "Leroy! Captain! Leroy! Captain! Captain!" Voice after voice. Dezzi, Eddie, Cali, Noir, Jeanne, Raven!
Leroy looked around. Running! And running! And running! "Guys! Im right here! How the hello are you here?!" He asked, mind in a daze. He could see people chasing others around him. Up stairs, climbing the walls, falling of their edges, he even saw people shoot up the towers and off the top!
'They must've kidnapped people! They must've known I'd come here!' Leroy said to himself
"Where the hell are you guys!" He screamed
Kirk shot behind a tower! Leroy went after him. 'Fuckin guy…' He smirked. 'Must be getting chased by a prisoner…' Leroy eyes looked frantic around himself. A quick grit of his jaw and he shot up! Through the sky! And destroyed the entire building! Looking around as the rubble crumpled….
"There!" He spotted the lithe form of Eddie walking up a stair case! It was moments before he began to ascend them. Bouncing from stair to stair to stair! "Eddie! Slow down man! I'm here for you! We got this! Get some tunes playing and we can fuck up this prison proper and get the rest out! And go and get Azar out of here!"
"Woah…" He said stopping himself, looking off the edge as the stairs came to a sudden stop…He must've been dozens of meters into the air…Hard to see the bottom…Wind pushing him. A quick leap he shot back down!
"Captain…." A voice said…Leroy looking around…Trying to find the source.
He wandered and wandered. In the back of his mind he thought that this was eerily similar to Cyprus…But another told him that it was different because he saw them! Not just shadows! Another told him to snap out of it…Something must be wrong!
"Ughh!" Leroy grabbed his head and shook hard! "What the hells going on!!!"
"Captain." It was from right behind! He whipped around!
There, standing above him…was a creature that reflected his own image back at him! Its skin made of reflective material? Like shining skin! Its voice that had spoken the word was too crisp and there was a whine of scratching tothe back of it!
It was like a long humanoid form with a false face that was fully flush. No features. Looking at just the right way as to only show Leroys face back at him! Antlers at the side of its head! Shining and sparkling almost blending in with the environment around…
Eyes widened and he brought his fist back as the things face opened slowly, crackling, glass sound shattering as it showed a maw of teeth made of glass shards!
"Gum Gum-!"
"Pop candle!!" A voice shouted a spray of sparks and a ball of fire zipped through the air! Impacting with the creatures skin with force that caused its shimmering form to be disrupted! Showing that it was merely retractable armor as a leathery skin beneath was its true surface!
The Creature dazed and wobbled to the sides and inevitably slammed against the ground…
"Wait-!" Leroy said. Eyes widening and shooting to where the attack came from! And there! On the middle of a stair case, in a torn and accessorized uniform with small pins and patches was-
"Mar-Syl!"
