Jade was not having a great day.
First of all, her date with Onyx was cut short by commando Mobians, which reminded her too much of the vivid stories her mother told her about the Dark Egg Legion and other organizations. Second of all, she was hit with a baton, prodded like cattle, and shoved into a shiny black van. Third of all, she was now in a musky cell, listening to the screams of the ones being legionized and the grim whispers of her prison mates.
She was only comforted from utter helplessness and despair by Onyx being placed right next to her. Despite being bound, he squeezed her hand gingerly. It made her feel as if she were being warmed by a Red Wisp.
The only thing funny was that Jade didn't do something like, say, rally the other diners, bust out some ninja moves like Bayetta could, or call up a food fight. She shuddered at the thought of a food fight, as Dawson could throw a mean enchilada.
Her thoughts were pierced by the creaking of the bars going up. Jade heard the vibrations of several of the other captives trying to get up and escape.
"I am Upsilon, imbeciles! Marvel at my strength!“ growled a voice that sounded suspiciously like Onyx.
Jade heard a solid thunk in the wall near her, and the creaking of a mechanical arm retreating back into its socket. She had to resist screeching out loud like a bat. Why? She didn't really know.
Onyx made a sound like a cat regurgitating a hairball.
"Justin!" he cried.
"I do not know this Justin." hissed Upsilon. Jade couldn't see in the dark, so she assumed it was Upsilon, although it could be some other Mobian speaking. "Requesting permission to terminate subject."
A voice spoke, although gargled and full of static and weird beeps.
"Permission denied, Grandmaster Upsilon."
Upsilon cursed using the "F" word and "B" word.
"Graaaaah! Emperor, why?! (BTW, this is actually going to be what the villain of Cerveau's time's name going to be)" snarled Upsilon.
The voice spoke again, but this time, it was more foreboding and warning.
"Upsilon, you would be unwise to oppose my orders. I still have Zeta (formely Omega-Gamma), Sigma, Epsilon, Omicron, Theta, Delta and others serving me loyally. Or worse... detonate your cybernetic explosives." it growled.
”Justin! What happened to you?" growled Onyx. “Answer me!"
Onyx's voice was so full of dismay and sadness that Jade nearly made a hucking noise.
"Captive, you have no right to speak!" Upsilon growled.
"Justin! JUSTIN! Justin...”
(Yeah, short chapter, but for now, that's all I can bring myself to write. Bai.)
