Chapter 17 - Service Rewarded

Awoken from my haze still I became as my eyes widen in realization that Taylor was holding me down on a new bed in a different cell so that I didn't attack him in my delirious rampage. Taylor's plump body was practically completely on top of me as I laid still. Though the weight and heat of his form was discomforting I had experienced far worse forms of body contact since coming here making this experience negligible.

"You can release me now" I said to Taylor in a low dry voice.

Taylor seeing me no longer thrashing around released his grip on my shriveled body and climbed off me. With true sincerity Taylor apologized to me.

"My deepest apologize sir, but you suddenly became uncontrollable the monument I laid you on the bed. Its -".

"I understand there's no reason to apologize for what you did".

With what strength I had I used to turned my head to scan the room. The room was near Identical to the previous one I was in meaning that its sight was depressing and drained more energy from me just looking at it then actually moving my body. The only noticeable difference from before was that Taylor was alone. The guard that assisted him before was no where to be seen.

"Where's the man you were with earlier?".

"I told him to piss off since he wasn't being any help. It didn't take much convincing to allow me to lock up a crippled man alone. The man had a problem just breathing the same air as you. But all that just works to our advantage now doesn't it".

Thought my entire body was wraithing in pain a sence of relief washed over me. The feeling could even be heard in my voice as my tone naturally relaxed.

"So, its finally time".

"Indeed it is. You've endured so much since coming here. I'm sorry that I couldn't do more for you, but that accursed Zepher wouldn't leave your side. I know I failed to keep you safe and now".

"Do not speak ill of yourself Taylor if not for your company I may have been struck mad long ago. Though what you were doing was simply because of my brother's orders you still tended to my wound and did so much more. If not for you I may have died long before I reached this day. So, for that I thank you from the bottom of my heart and I will see to it that my brother pays double what he promised you".

Taylor's eyes lit up and his lips twitched as he stammered to say, "your to kind".

Nathaniel looked at Taylor who appeared ready to neal in front of him as if he were some god. With kind eyes Nathaniel replied back, "No i'm not. Now has anything change regarding the plan".

With a serious look Taylor said, "No there has not, but you have to remember we are three floors underground so escape will not be easy. Getting past this level will be the hardest because everyone knows this prison isn't built to contain someone like Flintwood so one of the two gods chosen we have stationed here is now tasked with guarding this floor.

His name is Jasper Mendoza you'll recognize him quickly because he'll be barreling towards you like a ball of furry. But you'll most likely won't have to worry about him because your patron in the room over said that he'll handle it.

After getting to the next floor make your way to cell Y-89 to make your way up, then can cell X-78 Which will put you in line with the east wall. The east wall is a clear shot straight to the woods were your driver is waiting for you. Also as you requested I arranged a way for you to speak with Captain Flintwood before this whole mess kicks off. This room is a bit special because the vents in it allow you to easily talk to the person in the adjacent room from it the same room Flintwood is locked up in. Not many people know about that fact because the vents were block years ago, but I fixed that problem".

Pleased that everything is going well Nathaniel gave Taylor his last orders, "unseal the vent and go before you get dragged into this mess. Oh, and for what its worth I do hope you have a nice life after i'm gone".

With quick movements Taylor detached a small panel blocking a vent on the ceiling and left the room just as fast. Alone but not truly Nathaniel took deep breaths. Each breath made his heart beat faster as adrenaline ran through his veins.

With more energy in his voice then he had used in months Nathaniel spoke out loud, "Are you awake Mr. Flintwood?".

Thought my entire body was wreathing in pain a sense of relief washed over me. The feeling could even be heard in my voice as my tone naturally relaxed.

Taylor's eyes lit up and his lips twitched as he stammered to say, "your to kind".
