"I still can’t believe you agreed to being a superhero! How in the world are you going to be able to manage this?” Chris exclaims to their friend in between jumps.
“Why not? I love to help people and I have these cool new powers. I mean look at this,” Tucker replies as he swings the electric rope.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeShC3siCV
Tucker takes his other hand and holds it out to the outlet that the rope is coming from. He extends his fingers so that a string of electricity connects to each one. He jerks his hand suddenly and closed it around the end of all the beams. They mold together, creating one thick electric rope. Even though he’s only been here a day, a specialist helped him control his powers a bit better. He learned that if he keeps the current on his fingertips when he squeezes his hand shut then it allows him to travel through it. If he disconnects the currents from his fingers and grabs it he can just hold it and use it as a weapon, or in this case a jump rope. He swings in the second rope he just made causing Chris to groan.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJiJmSN7lV
“Why do I hate double dutch so much?” They complain as they struggle to keep up.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MebyQYEYY
Chris stumbles and the rope strikes them right in the chest, causing their veins to light up blue. The doctors informed Chris that their body absorbs electricity, meaning they can be electrocuted but it won’t harm them like it would a regular human. Chris starts to rub their hands together as if they were rolling a ball, which they are. Slowly their body starts to turn back to its regular color as the ball of blue energy gets bigger in their hands. Once they are back to normal they throw the ball at their friend who lunges forward to catch it. Chris now knows that they can get rid of the electricity in their body by expelling it. This can be how they just did with the ball, using themself to power something or other more painful ways that can be done in the bathroom.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mWSXPPGJ4
The two of them toss the ball around despite their lack of athletic ability. At one point they both go for it since it is in the middle of them and end up knocking each other down. They laugh until they see the ball fall on a blue gym mat and set it on fire. A panicking Chris runs to get something to put it out with. Tucker gets the mat away from the other ones before the fire can spread. Chris extinguishes the fire quickly before tossing the extinguisher to the side while looking at their friend with a panicked look.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoHht0EocA
“Dude, it is like 4 a.m! Don’t you think it’s way too early to be starting fires?” They whisper shout.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrSVDX1m0Y
“Relax. We can leave now if you want. I just wanted to master Shock Rope, which you need to remind me to trademark. Besides, I wanna explore this place some more anyway. C’mon let's go!” Tucker replies before running out of the training room.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3mFIUeCdS
They climb into the elevator and Chris is in the middle of trying to persuade Tucker to go back to the room they slept in when their eyes light up. Chris point towards the button labeled with a letter P. Tucker pulls out his phone which has the picture of the guidebook page that explains the elevator buttons. Chris leans in before smirking at their friend. Looking back at the button they see that that floor is alarmed. Tucker pulls the electricity from the alarm as Chris presses “P”. Tucker holds his hand under the red, glass box until they reach the floor and he restores the power in the alarm. They turn to glance out the large elevator window to see that this floor is below ground. The doors open and they slowly walk out into the dimly lit hallway.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4oedhLAza
The cells that have a red light mean they are occupied while the ones with a yellow light mean that they are empty but reserved. Closest to the entrance are the green-lighted cells which are vacant and available for anyone who commits a crime against the LGBTQ community. They peer into the available cells and hesitate before walking into one. It looks like a regular jail cell that holds one person. On the dresser, there are suicide pamphlets and a book on the different sexualities and genders. They exit the cell and go back to the hallway. It is one big path that twists in turns meaning there is one way in and one way out, which is unfortunate for whoever has the cell at the end of the dead-end labyrinth. Tucker nervously follows his friend, who he knows wants to walk until they can’t. When the cells finish and there is only wall in front of them, Chris puts their hands out to touch it.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStV1M8rcmD
“80,” they breathe excitedly. “There are 80 cells down here. 35 have inmates in them, 18 are empty and open to the public. That leaves 27 reserved cells, for the notorious 27 villains who commit mass or serial crimes against the LGBT community. I counted as we walked by,” They recite as if this were the greatest thing they’ve ever witnessed.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkheF43to71
The two of them slowly begin to make their way back while Chris reads the names of the reserved prisoners the P.O.P have yet to catch as they walk by.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dPOSN0tRs
“Grizz Lee, Dragstorm, King D, Skolion, Ayro. . . “ Their voice trails off until their mouth is just hanging open in awe. “Man, these guys are notorious. I thought Ayro worked for the good guys though,” Chris whispers to no one in particular.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOlhxtBx8D
Tucker shrugs his shoulders just as they hear a grunt followed by a sharp panging that sounds like something hitting a car coming from the direction they are walking in. They slowly walk towards the noise, seeing as that is the only way out. Tucker suddenly stops as he grabs Chris by their shirt. A confused Chris follows their friend’s gaze to see the fist-shaped dent in the metal wall. They both exchange a glance that confirms that neither of them noticed it when they walked through. Their chests tighten and their mouths go dry. They pick up their pace as they try to get out of the prison. They are making their way through the rest of the reserved cells when they hear a voice. They both stop dead in their tracks.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSa3s4kb24
“Did someone just walk by, because I swear I just saw someone come past this cell,” A voice comments as Tucker and Chris strain to listen.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjJK9Y53Hd
“I know I saw the shadows. Get ready to kick some ass babe, this could be your chance to shine,” A different voice whispers encouragingly.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4DooNy2rL
Chris and Tucker look at each other, anticipating the attack. They turn towards the cell they just passed, landing in a fighting stance. Chris plans to use the electricity from the dim lights as a weapon, hoping it can subdue whoever is about to come at them.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusYIks93zH
“3!” One of the voices from the cell shouts as Tucker and Chris see the two figures appear in the hallway in front of them.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmcNmq0jXq
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaa!” The four of them shout in unison as they get ready to fight.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcrH6Mp1u0
“Oh! Heeeeyyyy!” They all say in a sing-song voice as they all get good looks at each other's faces. 57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQnTiTjsCi
“Jett? Stevon? Chris look, It’s the guys from the Spectrum Club at school!” Tucker laughs.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLUpxfaITE
“Man am I glad to see you guys. We thought you were escaped prisoners,” Chris admits as they lean forward while breathing heavily.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbE7hIrI7P
“So did we. I didn’t realize there were other people down here. We were halfway through the reserved cells when I got spooked and wanted to go back. Stevon decided it would be funny to pretend there was an escapee behind me which scared the crap out of me, causing me to dent their wall. Before we left he did beg me to let him see the inside of a cell and that’s when you guys ran by,” Jett explains as he looks to the ground.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEld3f0PYOL
“Oh wow, you did that? Let’s leave this basement and then you can tell me about your cool power because now I’m dying to know,” Chris tells them as they make their way back to the elevator.
