just so you know, Trillian has metal wings. They are not part of her, they just clip to her back with magnetic implants in her shoulders and can be removed at any time.
~ Trillian
They leave us in the dungeon, they had taken my wings and my sword. When I got out, I was going to shred them, then piece them back together just so I could kill them again. They had no right to lock us up!
These views are expressed purely by the charrie and are not meant to insult the authors of Elliot and Catastrophe.

Day 4
Captured
great Just great! I tried to fight them off but they got us, I got hit with a tranclizer and fell face first. when I woke up I was tried and so was Heather.
"You ok?" I ask Heather
"Ya but you don't look so good"
I can feel pain I didn't have before
"Guess they want their licks in."
"Let's forcus on getting out of these ropes first, then jokes"
"Let's see"
Everything I have is gone but my clothes and my hidden fur pockets contants but when you have no use of your hands, what's the point? since I can't use phyical, how about magical?
Then a blue blade came out of my back
(November 14, 2016 - 6:37 am)
Elliot I despise you so.(not intended to offend the author-your writing is amazing, to have me feel such emotion.) I hAve absolutely NO idea where I am so I'll just be captured. :)
Kimilene~
I rip my hands out of the guards as we walk down the hallway. So far, Tuera's disguise as a guard is working, but we haven't run into Elliot or Octavia yet, which is what I'm really worried about.
I let out a tiny sigh-and get a sword point in the back. Annoyed, I hissed at Tuera.
"You don't have to take your disguise that seriously."
"Honestly, I do," Tuera shot back. "You cant tell who's watching." We walked in silence from then on. I'm led to the cage that Icy and Sprocket (?) are in. I hear shadow sobbing the the next cell over and Trillian sharpning a sword. The sword clanged quietly as Trillian hid it when Tuera came. Tuera pretended to frisk me, but left my hidden hunting knife, taking only my dagger and my short sword. She handed them to the other guard who nodded and left, before shoving me (rougher than she had to, honestly) in the cell with my friends. In one cell next to us was a bloodied, binded, masculine figure and Mina. In the other were shadow and Trillian. Icy and Sprocket leapt to their feet and ran at me as the cell door clanged shut and Tuera stood guard outside.
"They broke shadow!" Icy wailed. Sprocket simply grimaced. I held up my hands.
"Slow down! We've been separated for a while...what happened to you?!" I cried. Icy and Sprocket filled me in.
"They inserted some green liquid into shadow and broke her healing abilities, and I'm lined up for execution. The guy in the cell over there is Ronan, Icy's friend. The people across from us are Trill and Coyota." Sprocket sighed heavily.
Now it was my turn to grimace. I hissed to Tuera.
"Execute Plan B, TONIGHT. We can't waste time. Cells A, B, C AND D." Tuera just nodded slightly and kept keeping guard.
Sprocket looked at me incredulously and I grinned.
"Time to fill you in on what we've been up to," I said. "That guard isn't a guard at all. It's Tuera. And we have a plan to get us all out."
So, I'm sure I messed a lot of stuff up, but I'm so confused, I just want to get back on track.
(November 13, 2016 - 11:32 pm)
"Ow! Unhand me!
"Bear-man" doesn't say a thing, but Horace whips me.
"Owww!" I yell, as I feel welts appear on my skin. Then I'm dumped into a cell with a walking, talking cat. Elliot, the king of Sailhaven-I occasionally read a paper thrown in the rubbish-is looking in another cell, and I hear screams and cries. Then a voice penetrates the sound.
"Ronan!"
"Icy, it's me! It is!" I scream back. A guard-someone called him Poe-attempts to me with an Æther rapier, but it only grazes my cheek. The cat's hackles raise, like she's fantasizing about killing them.
Then Elliot, Poe and the other girl are gone. Shadow is crying, and the others are trying to soothe her. Then another figure arrives on the scene.
I can hear Icy saying, "They broke Shadow!"
"Slow down!" the other voice says. "We've been seperated for a while... what happened to you?"
Icy quickly fills her in, and I tell everyone about Horace and the other man. This makes Shadow wail louder. Trillian strokes her forehead.
They introduced everyone, and I gave a feeble "hallo" when the vampire girl mentioned me.
"Execute Plan B TONIGHT," the voice says. "We can't waste time. Cells A, B, C, and D."
Someone named Tuera is going to help us, and we're going to get out.
"But I don't think that'll work," I say. "Now that I'm here, the ship will be under especially tight guard. This corridor will be most guarded because I'm in here, and Catastrophe wants me, and Elliot doesn't want to look a fool by having me and then we've escaped. Our best bet is right before or right after our torture-we're all going through it, Horace said and I heard him."
Everyone is silent. Then they nod their heads. "He's right," Icy says. "Later, Kimeline."
(November 14, 2016 - 1:06 pm)
We snapped Shadow's wings.
(November 14, 2016 - 9:43 am)
"Ronan! Wake up!" I yell frantically, pulling at him. "Can't you glow blue and shine him in the face or something?" Kimilene asks. "Right. Shadow, c'mere..." I say, grabbing Shadow's hand and starting my blue glow, my etheral wings activating, and trying to concentrate it towards his face.
"Two more minutes..." He mutters. "RONAN!" I yell as loudly as I dare. "Icy!? Where are we--what the--" He asks, snapping awake.
"We're in a prison air ship they want to execute us they snapped Shadow's wing but it's going to heal but there's not enough time but--" I blurt in one breath. "Oh-kay....what's that fox guy doing with that blue sword?" Ronan interrupts.
I look at Alexander R. "Put that thing away!" I hiss. "They'll find you out! And we have nowhere to go--we're in the middle of open air, and I'm pretty sure that none of us has piloted an airship before. And besides, we're being escorted by other airships. And you can't take out an entire guard of Sailhaven Elite!" I hiss softly, trying not to catch the guard's attention.
(November 14, 2016 - 11:58 am)
So is Shadow some kind of side-affected power or related to a Power? How does she make Icy glow?
(November 14, 2016 - 5:18 pm)
(November 14, 2016 - 5:52 pm)
I lead the Fallen, Poe, Alexandria, and a host of others to the dungeon.
"I must apoligise. I know you wanted a bigger event, but we better not give them time to esacpe. Do you mind of we speed up events?" I ask to Catastrophe.
We walk into the dungeon, and hoist our weapons.
(November 14, 2016 - 5:40 pm)
I stand silently in the shadows as the all argue with themselves. My foot brushes quietly against the floor. I don't think they heard me, but the cat's ears perk up. She noticed. Her head whips around, and her deep green eyes penetrate me.
"Guys," she growls softly.
Silence shatters the room.
"Something's lurking in the shadows."
I smirk and step out.
"Thank you. For all of that information," I say, pretending to bow.
"Who's that?" the one they call Ronan blurts out.
"Luna," Sprocket scowls.
I walk up calmy to Sprocket looking at me through the bars.
I smile.
I then jerk the color of her shirt so her face slams into the bars.
She yelps, and the others grimace.
"Alexandria," I say slowly.
I let her go and she falls back into her cell.
"Okay, now I'm really confused," Ronan says. "When did a, what, 10 year old, start to act like a soldier?"
"She's no soldier," the fox, Alexander R., barks.
I shake my head and laugh. "You know, vermin, I've had just about enough of your smart remarks."
He starts spitting insults at me, and the others yell at him to calm down, while I inspect the girl guarding the new prisoner, Kilmene's, cell.
She glances at me a couple of times nervously.
Suddenely, the room is quiet. I turn around to see Elliot walk through the door.
I stand up straighter, and he walks right up to the prisoners.
"Well, who should we start with?" he asks with a deadly cheerfulness.
I look at Shadow who's still quiet, at Trillian who looks down, at Sprocket who stares straight ahead, at Icy who fidgets, at the cat who paces her cell, at the other cat that glares at Elliot, at Ronan who avoids eye contact, at Heather who makes direct contact, at Kilmene who twirls her hair, and at Alexander who spits at the ground. Good. All 10 prisoners in check and ready for their sentences.
Elliot walks up and down the cell, and my eyes follow.
"We'll start..." he says, trailing off. He smiles, refocusing. "With an animal."
"No!" Icy and Kilmene scream in unison.
The cat, Mina, looks up ubruptly, and Nira places her head in her hands. Alexander scowls and Heather stares in shock at Elliot.
Elliot then looks at the two cats and two foxes, narrowing down the choices.
He looks at Mina. "The traitor for last, of course."
Mina slams against the cell as to challenge Elliot, but Elliot shrugs.
He clucks his tongue and twirls his finger around the room at the three remaining choices.
He stops clucking his tongue as he snaps his fingers. "Ah, and we can't have the dirty mouth fox until later. I'm sure someone will have something special for him."
He then looks and smiles at his two choices.
"Oh, fox or cat?" he asks, chuckling. He pauses. "The cat's too pretty for now. I'll take the fox."
His last words penetrate the air as there is a period of stunned silence following before everybody's rage bursts.
"NO!" "How could you?!" "DON'T YOU DARE!" "WHY?!"
The guards come and drag Heather out of her cell. She fights and kicks them, successfully getting a few of them off of her, but more guards come and swarm her.
The drag her out of the room, as her screams trail out. Everyone else's screams, cries, yells, and shouts are still happening.
Elliot takes out his pistol and fires it into the air as everybody quiets down.
"Shut it!" he yells. "You'll all be like her and then dead anyway!"
The doors busrt open, and the soldiers that were coming, who were Riuex, Auva, and Olympia walk in.
"Hello," Olympia says. "You called?"
Elliot nods. "All three of you need to watch over them. Suspicious activity, that's all."
Olympia nods, and all three of them scatter out through the room.
(November 14, 2016 - 5:44 pm)
Oh, come ON! Really?!
You don't understand. There is no forsee able end to this! We're all stuck in a loop.
We escape.
You capture us.
Plain and simple.
We can't keep tugging!!
Something has to give...
Kimilene~
"Kimilene!" The word hissed through the bars of the cage. I glanced up sharply and saw Alexandria. I groaned.
"Who's that?" Ronan asked.
"Luna," Sprocket scowled. I winced. I knew some friends over at the SOCS facility, and knew enough to know you don't call Alexandria Luna. Ever. Sure enough, Alexandria walked over to Sprocket and held her by the collar.
"Alexandria.." She whispered and dropped her to the floor.
"I'm so confused." Ronan's voice called out. I missed the next part, thinking, 'Aren't we all...'
"That's no soldier," the anthro fox, I think his name was Alex?, called out. Alexandria laughed darkly.
"You..." Alex started yelling insults, and everyone was screaming for him to "shut his piehole," as one voice cried. I was more focused on Alexandria, who was focused on Tuera. Tuera glanced at her nervously, and I stepped in.
"Shows how much you trust soldiers," I hissed, just loud enough for her to hear. She ignored me and stepped back. Elliot stepped through the door and I hissed madly at the man-no, he didn't deserve that title. Beast, perhaps-that put us all here.
"Who should we start with..." He asked, but it wasn't a question. "Let's start with an animal."
"No!" I screeched. Icy joined in. That meant either Alex, Coyota, Mina, Nira or Heather. Elliot walked up and down the cells. Mina looked up abruptly. Mira put her head in her hands. Heather and Coyota shrank back into the back walls of their cells. Only Alex remained strong, muttering more stupid insults under his breath.
Elliot looked between Mina and Nira, and Alex and Heather, completely ignoring Coyota. I guessed she fell more under the catagory of "mutant" rather than "animal."
"Cats last, of course." Elliot smirked. Mina sighed and Nira weeped quietly.
"What about...the fox?" He whirled around to Heather.
"No!" She squeaked.
"Let her go!" I cried.
"Why?!"
"How could you!"
"Don't touch a hair on her head!"
"Shut it! You'll all end up dead like her eventually-why waste your remaining breaths?" Elliot hissed. Heather was dragged out of the room. My heart sank as the door banged open in the silence and Tuera's former friends walked in.
"You called?" Olympia asked. Elliot waved her over and they talked in low tones, before he left and the three girls took up places at cages. Tuera didn't move, not even when Olympia stared at her closely.
"You got a problem?" Tuera hissed, making her voice gruff. Olympia nodded absentmindedly and walked outside Trill and Coyota's cage, stationing herself. Auva went outside Ronan and Mina's cell, and Riuex outside shadow and Trillian's. Tuera guarded ours, and another guard that I didn't know stood in front of Heather an-well, Alex's cage.
"Kimilene!" Tuera hissed.
I sidled up, pretending to look at Ronan across from me.
"I can't do this anymore. They KNOW me." Tuera said.
Tuera~
Olympia.
Riuex.
Auva.
No.
This was horrible. I'd been found. Olympia was going to turn me in, and that'd be that. I was dead meat. Kimilene seemed to understand, but I felt so horrible, letting her down. Letting everyone down. I watched as Alexandria left the room, and decided to follow.
"I'm sorry," I whispered. Then I headed outside.
"Excuse me, Captain Alexandria, was it?" I said. I was so scared. Alexandria whipped around.
"That is I. What is the matter, soldier?"
"I-I..." My voice trailed off. "I need to resign." Alexandria's eyes flashed coldly.
"Why?"
"Because...Octavia needs me. I need to become an assassin so I can help the war effort better. I live to be in the action, and guarding isn't doing that for me," I said, hoping she would understand.
Alexandria grinned coldly. "Oh? I know the perfect area to train. Come. I'll take you there." She led me outside.
Somehow, I don't remember much between leaving the building and entering the new one. I didn't recongize the new building. Huge white walls loomed upinside, and arches supported the entire structure.
Alexandria led me inside a completely whitewashed room, with a single bed in the middle of it and counters all around. A tall woman with red hair in a beehive haiestyle walked in and smiled.
"Luna," She said.
Alexandria stiffened slightly, but smiled politely and nastily. "Headmistress Rigga," She said.
I froze. Headmistress? Oh no. I was in the SOCS buildind. This was bad.
So very, very bad.
"Well, I need to head back to Catastrophe's army. Headmistress, this guard would like to become an assassin, to better help the war effort. I trust you'll know how to help her?" Alexandria said coldly.
The headmistress lips curved into a cruel smile. "Of course, Luna. So lovely to see you again." Alexandria bowed her head and exited the room. The headmistress said something into a walkie talk and shoved me onto the bed.
"Excuse me, I think I'm in the wrong place-"
"You'll be fine." A doctor burst into the room, and they talked for a moment. I strained to hear anything, but caught the words "assassin," "mind wipe," and "blank slate." I gulped. This was so very, very, very bad.
The headmistress left, and the doctor pulled a green syringe from his coat, grinning madly.
"This won't hurt a bit," He said, and plunged the syringe into my leg. I screamed in pain, and blacked out.

i glare at Elliot, my fists clenched. He would die for this. Octavia and all of her assasins had come in. This was my chance, quietly slipping my hand into a hidden pocket in my cloak, I pulled out a poisoned throwing star. Taking careful aim, I flick my wrist. The star hurtles through the bars out and straight for Elliot's chest. But he caught it in mid air. He turns and looks at me. "Kill Her first."
(November 14, 2016 - 8:55 pm)
I sigh. This was awful. My arm was frozen. The girl Heather was gone. Everyone was going to die. And I knew the person Elliot would choose next. Me.
It all seemed so ironically funny. I used to work for him, and he was the one who gave me my life. Yes, the whole time I secretly disliked him, but he was the king of my home. Now, I was in a resistance, and he was inflicting pain on all of my friends, about to kill me. The seed of dislike grew and and grew, until all I wanted to do was to give him a slow and painful death.
Funny. That is what he is going to do to me.
(November 14, 2016 - 9:47 pm)
Just my luck. I run into the one person my age here. That person doubles as the biggest annoyance since I-don't-remember-when-ago. I flip up my hood, trying to hide the fct that I am abviously Poe Allen, ELliot's Eleven-year-old supergeneuis, capabul of running any errond, as well as fighting off enemeys.
I had practicly ran out of the dungeon, after killing a small mutant sometuing accused of treason. I was fed up with having to wath the spoiled brats. They had, after all, gotten what they ahd wanted: attention.
I tried to walk past Alexandria (or Luna, or soldier #2674674637, rank assistant senior officer, aide-de-camp to his madjesty and her madjesty.) as meekly as I could. The one reason I was here, teh one reason I had given up on humanity, the one reason I was so far ahead: I was horrible at dealing with people outside of work. OIn the military, I never had to worry about friends or enemys. All I thought about was (a) my mission, (b) any enemeys to Elliot (c) who was I ahed of and who was I behind, and finnaly (d) was I in Elliot's favor. And I had never had a crush, untill now.
I felt a churnning in my gut. Oh come on. ANd, of course, it didn't help that I was falling for a phsycopath. I mean, come on! And, of course, I could never have Elliot find out. WHat would he think? I swllowed, and walked forward, untill:
"Hello Mr. Alen." SHe said.
"Hello Alexandria." I replied.
I walked forward, pretending like my head wasn't dying in the slowest fasion possible. And why do I feal like she is staring at me?
(November 14, 2016 - 10:43 pm)
After they shoot Heather, they point to Mina.
"Please!" I scream through the bars, "please, don't go this!"
The soldiers don't listen. They don't even raise their heads. The then I see the gen-year-old take out a gun. They point it at Mina. They pull the trigger. Mina lets out a cry of pain. It can't kill her, because neither Leva nor I am doing our job as 'guardians of death' but it probably still hurts a lot. I can't take this anymore.
"If you stop," I say, "you can have me."
That makes them stop. The girl looks up, and Elliot stops laughing.
"I am the Angel of Death. Who knows what I can do. Just please," I start to cry, "Please, don't kill them anymore. Stop hurting them."
Elliot snaps his fingers.
"Call the exécution off," He grins, "We have what Catastrophe wanted."
