private Guilty until found innocent

[dusk shade 205]

Bushido slid herself completely to his warm body and closed her eyes started to fall back to sleep. Being blind, all she saw was an empty silent space and all she felt was his warm fur allowing her to fall quickly asleep with ease. Her muzzle was pressed under his neck lightly.

It was a wile till Seth woke up. The mare next to him was still fast asleep. Looking to her wounds, the bandage was rather red. He would need to change it when she woke.

 

Getting up, he tried not to wake her. Tucking her in a little, he kept the mare warm while he did some stretches to get his body usable.

Bushido eventually woke back up and pulled herself out from the blanket. "Sorry for using you as a pillow", she quietly apologized while he was stretching. She stood up and walked away from the corner after folding the blanket up into a triangle like you would a flag.

[arkman575 312]

Looking to the mare, he smiled. "No problem. I really didn't mind too much." He relied, finishing his stretches. "So... I believe it's breakfast" He said, seeing a few guards talking, one having a key in his hoof. "And... maybe our escape..." The wolf added, feeling a sudden eager to have some revenge.

"Sounds good", she said circling the cell with a slight limp in her wounded leg. She was itching to kill a couple of assholes and the ponies outside the cell seemed to fit the build perfectly bringing a dark smirk to her face. "Now's as good a time as any to break out of here, I guess".

[arkman575 312]

"Wait till we are at the elevator shaft doors. I have a plan." The wolf said, smiling. Two guards came to the door, opening it for the prisoners. Tazers armed, the began to escort the two down to the elevator shaft. When they arrived, one pushed the call button. It was at that moment that the plan began. With one guard distracted, Seth lashed out at the other, hitting him hard. "NOW!"

[dusk shade 205]

Bushido heard his signal and slammed her forelegs down on the distracted guards skull from the side and from the top. She brought them down again on his skull twice more harder each time. After she was sure that the guard was either unconscious or dead she waited for Seth to finish his guard.

While the mare brutally murdered the stallion by crushing in his scull, the unlucky pegasus the wolf was facing had to deal with claws thrashing across his body. After tearing off his wings, and biting off and ear, Seth finally ended the ponies suffering, clawing him across the throat. "Well... that was rather fun." He said, looking to the mare. "Once the elevator comes, we will take the emergency exit panel. It will give us our best bet of getting to the top levels."

[dusk shade 205]

"Right then. And if your plan goes haywire", she asked listening for the sound of opening elevator shaft doors. She lifted the tazers from the now deceased guards and toosed one toward Sethw. "Saves us the energy of having to attack a single multiple times".

"Nice idea." Seth commented, taking the tazer and walking into the elevator. "Here... give me a sec." He called, leaping up to an emergency door in the roof. Pushing the panel aside, he climbed out. Standing atop the elevator, he called down. "Ok, need some help up?" He asked.

[dusk shade 205]

She knew there was nothing to use as jumping platforms and she knew had no kunai left to pull herself up. She could easily jump up and put without them if she knew where the hole in the roof was. "Yeah....I can't see the damned hole...a hoof up would be greatly appreciated", she said pissed at herself for using all of her kunai.

[arkman575 312]

Taking the mare's hoof, the wolf pulled the pony up out of the box. After she was up, he took the roof cover and placed it back where it belonged. "Well, all we need to do is get up to the top level. It shouldn't take-"

 

The wolf was cut off when the elevator shook, then rose up. With the sudden movement, Seth stumbled back. slipping on some grease, he lost his footing and tripped over the edge. With a quick grab of desperation, he tried to grab hold of the sides. His claws dug into the metal, but they wouldn't hold. He was hanging over the edge, 20 stories high. "Oh shit... a little help?" he called.

[dusk shade 205]

She quickly wrapped her hooves around his chest, leaning over the side to do so. She pryed his claws out of the metal before dragging him back on top of the elevator. She stood there for a moment with her hooves wrapped around him. She didn't care if he thought it was weird, she was just happy he wasn't dead.

When the mare brought him up, the wolf was panting in post-fear. "W...well... near death five minutes into our escape... I feel that's a bad omen... " He said, almost not noticing the mare still hugging him. After a few second, he began to notice the mare still hugging him. It was slightly odd, but he slowly put an arm around the mare. "Well... I haven't saved ya yet. So far we are even."

[dusk shade 205]

"Um...one thing you should know. I'm not leaving without my swords and preferably my armour either. Those swords belonged to my mother and father and my armour was put together using what remained of their armors. They're all that's left of my parents and I will rot in here before I leave them behind. And we'll see who ends IP saving who", she finished and pulled her hooves away.

[arkman575 312]

The elevator stopped, arriving on a random floor. Seeing the mare pull away, the wolf did the same. "Well... I will help you find the armory. Usually the prisoners' weapons are held there. Just stick close." He said, looking around the dark shaft. His eyes had gotten use to the lack of light. "Well... any idea where an armory would be in the most secure prison in Canterlot?

[dusk shade 205]

She shook her head. Only thing I could figure is most likely one of the most secure floors and one of the most secure rooms...lots of guards, I'd wager. I'm not putting you in any more danger just to get my stuff though. Once I know where it is, ill go alone. You can hide out somewhere or whatever but I'm not bringing you down with me", she said daring him tl argue.

[arkman575 312]

Finding a vent cover, he slowly pried it off and looked to the mare. "Tell me this, what are your plans when you go in alone and you can't see the ten guards, in firing squad formation, aimed at you? We can get it together. You saved my life after all, so I owe you something." He protested as he crept through the vent. "This is an old trick, but it usually doesn't fail. Stay on the elevator till I come back with more info." He ordered, hoping the mare would listen.

 

As he went though the air duct, the wolf found a few different rooms. They were mostly maintenance closets or hall ways however. However, he did come across a break room. There might be a fire evacuation map in there, and that would give him an idea of where the armory would be.

[dusk shade 205]

Bushido not to let him get himself hurt, and completely disregarding what he had told her, walked down the hall completely unsure of what was ahead of her in the shaft. Eventually after not finding anything promising, she returned to the elevator and waited for Seth.

[arkman575 312]

Sneaking into the break room, the wolf looked for a poster with the fire exits. Odd how he had to actually look for something that should have been blatantly obvious. After a good five minutes, he found it under a box of doughnut. Looking over the map, he found where the armory should be. Sneaking into the vent, he disappeared, carrying a doughnut in his mouth. "I found where we need to go." He called, eating at his treat as he found the mare where he left her.

[dusk shade 205]

"Good to know. Lets get a move on the since you're so insistant on getting yourself into trouble when you could just stay pit of harms way. I don't want you to get killed helping me...I don't want to die at all....I don't want to see you get hurt", she said the last parts almost silently.

[arkman575 312]

Going over to a closed elevator door, the wolf began to pry it open. "Bushido... my life is worth nothing to yours. Please don't argue with me on this. I'll try not to die, but you will get out. There is no denying it." He spoke, the doors opening. Walking back to her, he put a paw around her for a second, giving her a light hug, then advanced for the door. "Lets go raid an armory."

[dusk shade 205]

She put a hoof out in front of him to stop him from going further. "Stop saying that. Even if you don't value your life, I do value your life. Your an ally and I don't let my allies run off and get themselves killed so stop playing hero already", she said relatively calmly but she was shaking.

[arkman575 312]

Noticing her trembling, the wolf nodded and sighed. "Fine, we are equals then. I rather not have to make the choice of life or death anyway." He said with a little tone of joking. It was there, but it was more just trying to lighten the mood. He hated to be put in these situations; fending off the impossible while keeping someone close alive. Last time he tried to, he got his brethren killed.

 

As they walked, the wolf noticed some shadows closing in on their position. Quickly grabbing the mare, he threw both of them into the nearest room, closing the door behind them. After standing up, Seth looked around the room to see where they were. A small firing range. And they were not alone.

[dusk shade 205]

"What the Buck what that for, you...wait, what is this room", she asked figuring she didn't want to hear the answer when she smelled the hot metal that smelled like something had sparked its way down a tube or a barrel recently. "Are we in a shooting range", she asked judging her surroundings by Ger enhanced sense of smell.
