Ethan woke up to a scream that shook him to his core. Even before his eyes flew open, he knew it belonged to Hanna. He shot up off the mattress, looking around the dark room frantically for her. He spotted her immediately.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXs3HrAC8F8
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpiPR6oV1o
One of the dealers, a man he hadn't met before, had brought her over to the other side of the room. She was lying on the floor, still nude, and he was standing above her. She looked weak and vulnerable but otherwise unhurt as far as he could see.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KZtYAkdty
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBD2Orl0vBz
Ethan noticed they'd put a collar on her and his anger flared. He went to go to her but he was forced to stop halfway as his leg was held back, his ankle was still chained to the wall. No matter what he did, no matter how much he pulled, he couldn't make it anywhere near them. The skin around his ankle had broken, despite Hanna's makeshift treatment.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡma47rBhwTy
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXG4qMw1kAl
Ethan glared daggers at her torturer from his vantage point. He ignored the trickle of blood flowing down his leg.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9EMVgoJYi
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzlpVDvNpT
"Do I have your attention?" The man spoke in a deep voice.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7lraCdlro
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90GGnqupDv
Ethan simply continued glaring at the man. Unsatisfied, the man hit some button on the remote and Hanna cried out in pain.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3SpanDaco
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8D2hZLFXdH
"Stop! Yes!" Ethan yelled, reacting immediately. Not like I can do anything else from over here, he thought grimly. He watched Hanna grit her teeth as she looked at the floor.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNesihclRbj
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VkPIacFPb
"Here's what's going to happen. You're going to tell me what I want to know or she's going to get it lot worse," their captor explained with pleasure. "That little demo was nothing." He smirked at the two prisoners.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoECkPiPKBr
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHxWPWJTdH
Ethan nodded cooperatively, trying to avoid Hanna getting another shock.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjd57RnrHzc
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbempBYATa
The older man's smirk widened. "Maybe we should reconsider training after all."123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZM1v7zzSm
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmFKdRxgFz
Ethan met Hanna's eyes, noticing them narrow at the comment. They were clear, determined. She's going to do something, he thought. Then the look was gone, replaced with fear that he suspected wasn't entirely true.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxf7yshVQg2
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAB8SLu2eo
"First question, where are the other Charax hiding o ut?" The interrogator asked him sternly.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3go4Fs7RS6
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdmIb43hJp
Ethan honestly had no idea where any other Charax were hiding on Earth, he'd said as much earlier. He doubted their new torturer was going to accept that answer. Ethan knew what was going to happen next but he was left with no other option. "I don't know," he gritted out in response.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcQvtgx07S
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIcIFjEU4Q
"Wrong answer." Their captor dialled up the collar until Hanna cried out in pain.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtPpshA91p
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2haZVcUnvn
Ethan flinched at the sound. "Stop it!" Ethan yelled as he pulled on his shackled leg, ignoring the pain. The man didn't stop. He closed his eyes, trying to block the sound out as he was forced to listen to her screams a while longer.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwc9rWhMsJ
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XYFPLfDTQ
Ethan wished it was anyone but her there. Her voice was triggering something primal in him. He wanted to rip this man's throat out so badly. The feeling was so strong that he was having trouble thinking straight, let alone coming up with a plan to get out of here.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7XichscVv
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwlxpTf9x4
His head was spinning so much that he ended up collapsing to his knees. "Please stop," Ethan begged quietly.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuL2DjwbFF1
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHNfgzLCNm
The man finally turned it off, a satisfied smile plastered on his face. "I told them this would work. Now answer the question."123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTZTxOqg1r
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsQRt0cUiR
Ethan watched Hanna go still and silent once the collar stopped shocking her. Her long hair was covering her face so he couldn't see her expression. He hoped she was alright. He hoped she would be alright.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZUGoay7RN
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAmB8YEYDg
Hanna knew she needed to be patient. She knew the moment would come. She knew playing up the pain would make him drop his guard, now that his attention was on Ethan and not her, she had a chance.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9SeCGPmqE
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwiN1LSnVpz
She shot up like a viper and hit the dealer in the face with all her strength. He dropped the remote as his hands flew to his face. She ignored the device and grabbed at the knife strapped to his thigh, pulling it free. His hands were covering his face but she was aiming for his throat.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbmlcNU4vK
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Inm1vp07q
Ethan watched across the room in shock the scene that was over in less than a minute. The man who'd been their captor a moment ago lay dead there on the floor, his throat cleanly slit with his own knife. His brain was failing to process how his coworker had killed someone nearly twice her size so easily.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlThYrDeYyw
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdUJfkmvIp
Hanna, seeming unconcerned with the splatter of blood on her skin, went straight to searching the body. She quickly found the key ring and headed over towards Ethan. She let a tiny smile grace her lips, the only celebration she'd get for that small victory.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvyjpHWqxc
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjqfF6gB8C
As soon as she got close, Ethan grabbed at her, pulling her in. He looked over her naked body unabashedly, checking for new injuries. "Are you okay?"123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJWZJQ2Jmw
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZhuQAd7SJ
Hanna took a small step back. "I'm fine." She assured him with a small smile. She started examining the stolen keyring.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucIqqT7nn9
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeihFllufoP
Not entirely believing her, he checked her over himself. He moved her hair away from the collar to examine it. She had some burns on her neck. He let out a hiss of anger when he saw this.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xMS80mmtc
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JyCkWCdx9
"Let it go," Hanna told him sternly. "No point in being angry at a dead man." She passed him the keys. It took him a while but he found the one for this collar. She heard a click then it fell to the floor.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7AiDqv2Gh
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡui58h3Ee5I
Now with the collar removed, Ethan was staring at the burns, which were starting to blister. He felt sick to his stomach. He needed to look away but couldn't at the same time.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTA7FWZpyns
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMCxDImLyi
Noticing how still he was, Hanna gently pried the keys out of his hand. She went to work on the shackle. She went through the keys until she found the one that fit in the lock. A second later, his leg was free.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡli6gl33XBL
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLEUsucn4E
"Dammit," Hanna muttered, looking at his bloody ankle.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEN7dhZaV8b
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsf3SdD7ejo
Ethan started tying the bloody strips of cloth into a makeshift bandage. "It's shallow, I'll be able to walk on it."123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡke3dJniei0
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjB343Zuh0a
"It's running I'm more concerned about," Hanna said worriedly. "Otherwise, how are you feeling?"123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSaFb9gdu0F
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNqyFRfiwk
"Better, not dizzy," Ethan answered, rubbing his forehead.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGW0nXw1bYn
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3WTrRP9sO
"Lightheaded?" Hanna studied him, observing how his symptoms had gone down, how he appeared to be stronger now.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1jBcexcQu
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPNVBSxfEw
Ethan finished up the bandage. It was a mess but hopefully it wouldn't have to last long anyways. "A bit. It's manageable."123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4hGe4hW0J
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1PhyGZM1U
Hanna smiled broadly. Step one complete, she thought. "Let's get out of here then."
