"Julie!"(Ally)
that was when she was nabbed by the ear.
"careful!"(Julie) yelled as shebwas dragged away, I had to stifle my laughter.
while Julie was off getting reprimanded, I decided to be productive with my time, we were running low on money, we had been for a while, now I could actually do something about it.
I remember ten years ago when it got bad the first time, some crime lord tried to force Ally into prostitution, that was a fucked up situation where I could've definitely used my power, thankfully she doesn't blame me for it, I certainly do.
luckily for me I wasn't able to think on it long as a wave of guards began to approach, weapons drawn and aimed, they looked cool in the afternoon shine with that broken skyscrapers dotting the mountains behind them, it would've been something I'd have stopped amd stared at but something told me I was the one they were after.
"you're under arrest!"(head guard)
I groaned as I just had to be right didn't I?
"under arrest for what? I haven't committed a crime and you not liking me isn't against the law."(syn)
the younger guards seemed to tighten hold on their swords, an unease in their eyes, they weren't here to arrest me, they were here to TRY and kill me, if I resisted they'd have ample reason, I'd already shown aggression, they could argue public safety, not even my sisters would be able to do anything.
"we have reasonablw suspicious that you have attacked a resident, please come with us."(head guard)
today wasn't going my way at all.
"let me at least notify my family, they're rifht behind me and it would be rude to just vanish on them."(syn)
the head guard nodded, waving a hand at his men, each if them standing down, I could see the reluctance in their eyes as they did so, they didn't want me to comply, they wanted to have reason to kill me.
but regardless I had to do what I said I needed to do, I made my way over to the still scolding Ally, grateful they didn't go far.
"look this is a bad time, I'm being arrested, don't panic, don't react, they're looking for reason to TRY and kill me, I'm going with peacefully, find a way home, both of you be safe."(syn)
their faces immediately sprung towards shock and disbelief.
"here's some money, hire a carriage, Julie train that energy, I'll be home as soon as I can, if it takes longer than a month, I'll break out."(syn)
those were my final words to them as I was yanked back by a metal clad hand, shackles placed around my wrists as I was shoved towards the group of guards.
none of this hurt me, it annoyed me.
and I would only become more and more annoyed, each guard took a turn hitting me in the stomach with their clubs, I acted like it hurt but in reality I barely even registered that I was being hit, I felt light pressure, like someone was tapping me.
regardless though, I acted my way along, all the way until we reached the prison, the walk was a really boring few minutes.
Tha kfully those few minutes gave me enough time to gather and circulate my combat skill energy, bringing me closer to a breakthrough, I was so close to level five I could feel it, but It seems that it would have to wait, the walls had some sort of dampening effect on them, they had absolutely no effect on me whatsoever but I can't give them reason to do anything yet so I made sure I acted weaker, nearly falling to my knees to sell it.
"looks like tough guy isn't so tough now."(guard) taunted, trying to get under my skin, before I wouldn't torn his throat out but now I was thinking rationally, I knew they couldn't kill me, they couldn't even hurt me, but I wasn't willing to put my family through the consequences of having a fugitive family member, it would only make their lives harder, my threat may have worked on the gods since they're more disorganized and I was stronger than them.
that isn't going to help against an organized force that doesn't care how strong I am.
luckily I had an ace up my sleeve.
"I'd like a representative of my choosing."(syn)
the guards looked around bewildered, it seems they didn't think I'd know their laws.
"choose then."(head guard)
I couldn't stop the smug smile from growing on my face.
"I choose the primal of this area, Jyn."(syn)
a complete dead silence broke down all talk in the jail, even the prisoners gave 'what the fuck?' faces.
"denied."(head guard)
I laughed as I shook my head no.
"your law does not stop me from requesting my own sister as a representative, I've complied as not to endanger any lives, don't mistake that for weakness."(syn) I said as I glowed my eyes at him, smirking the entire time.
he looked visibly shaken, but he recovered, shaking off the trance like stare and ordering me to a cell, the strongest one they had at that, the second I saw it I knew, one touch from me and it would break like Styrofoam.
that meant I could DEFINITELY escape whenever I felt like it, if this was their strongest cell then it didn't matter where I was.
happily, I began planning, I knew my sisters were iffy about me right now so I couldn't rely on them, I'd need to just wait this out or use their laws against them.
"hey, guard, when is my representative arriving?"(syn)
no answer.
no answer needed.
the familiar scent and clack of heels told me all I needed to, the shiver down the guards spine was also a helpful tell.
"it's been a minute, how ya been?"(syn)
no answer, just an annoyed scowl.
"look I didn't do it, really, I didn't, look, I'm trying to be more rational than I have been in the past."(syn)
Jyn sighed, placing her head in her hands for a brief moment, regaining a calm composure after she let out a deep breath of stress.
"do you know how worried you've made us all?! first Lya comes bursting in shouting that you're gonna wipe out the universe and now you're in jail for murder!"(Jyn)
that wasn't helping my case.
"I know I've killed A LOT of people, but I didn't kill this one, honest, I know I have a problem but I'm working on it."(syn)
she gave me a 'mhm' look, she didn't belive me.
"do you even know how many people you've killed?"(jyn) asked, a genuine curiosity buried in her voice.
"billions."(syn)
Jyn nearly fell to the floor coughing in shock, it wss like she was choking on the news alone.
"I might have lost it and accidentally destroyed an entire planet."(syn)
"alone."(syn)
"in one move."(syn)
that was when she passed out, completely unresponsive.
the guard looked like he was almost there as well, he was shaking so bad I could've seen it from miles away, Jyn might be the essence of fear but right now I'm pretty sure I was doing her job.
