I woke in a daze, surrounded by darkness and a scratchy feeling on my face. If it wasn't for my strange personality and past experiences, I'd be unable to figure out what's going on. I can't seem to remember anything past meeting an old friend at lunch. I snapped out my musing when I heard the door open. I decide to remain quiet and listen to the footsteps coming towards me. The person, who I assume is my captor, takes off the bag covering my face. We remain silent assessing each other. I notice a small insignia on his shirt and immediately knew what's going on. Once the fear I felt subsides, and is replaced with an awkward feeling in my stomach, I decide to break the silence.

"So… wanna tell me where I am?" I receive no response but a scoff from my supposed captor.

"Well if you won't talk, then care to get me someone who will?" I'm surprised when he actually leaves. I try to think of how I got in this situation again.

(A few days ago)

A message beeped on my phone telling me that I got an email. I'm about to get rid of the notification but then I realize it's from a friend I lost contact with a long time ago. I decide to read it and see what he wants. The email is short and simple, exactly how I like them, and read as such:

Hey,

I don't know if you recognize the email address, so this is Maurice. I was going to try and decide on where I should go for a vacation since my boss decided to grant me one finally. I was wondering if you wanted to meet for food and catch up for old times sake. If you do, well just send me a place to meet at near you.

I was about to send a quick message saying that I couldn't and come up with a made up reason why, when I thought about how my mom is pressuring me to go out more instead a staying cooped up alone only leaving for work meetings as I normally work from home. Reluctantly, I sent him a time and place in the form of a simple riddle to see if he just asks again or tries to solve it.

The day of the meeting came and I force myself to wake up cursing myself for making a time I'm normally not awake, yet. I leave about an hour early getting to the meeting place, which was a Local bar, I believe, after awhile, I see him walk up to me waving. I waved back and enter the bar. We sit chatting for a bit. I try to avoid drinking as I'll probably be going straight home after, but that doesn't work. "Hey give me about 5 minutes, I've got to use the restroom," I say leaving. I come back 10 minutes later. I sit down and finish the rest of my cocktail. Suddenly everything went weird and I fell out my chair. The last thing I see is his smirk as everything goes dark.

(Present)

I have no clue what time it is nor how long I was out. I chuckle a bit and start looking for a way to get out of this situation. I can't deny to know about everything they ask of me, they could end up killing me for knowing too much. "I'll just have to play along with their little game." I think aloud grinning.

"Just like you to call this a game." I start hearing the sudden voice. "It makes the situation seem less scary, Maurice." I respond hearing the voice of my old friend. "So, do I have you to blame for my situation?"

"Perhaps. It's a matter of perspective really. None of this would be happening if you didn't leave, Rei." He says with a mocking tone.

"I honestly didn't expect 'them' to send you to track me down. Maybe Adam since he had the biggest grudge against me," I think a bit then say, "Unless you were that angry for me leaving." I look him in the eyes. "If this is about silencing me forever, well there was no point in going this far. If I was going to say anything about the White Fang's plans, I would've already."

"That's not the point. The point is that you abandoned all of us."

"The White Fang took a dark turn. It was you guy's choice to stay. I simply respected your decision." All humor drains from my face. "I have no reason to return to an organization that seems to have fallen to nothing more than a terrorist group." I throw a glare at him. "The White Fang claims to be there to make the world a better place for Faunus everywhere, yet you kill those who decide to stop fighting and even those who are innocent!" I take a minute to calm down. "I don't want to fight for the White Fang anymore. At least not until it's ideals are expressed properly once more. Now let me go, or I'll be forced to bear my fangs once again."

"I doubt your claws are still as sharp after all these years."

"Sharp enough. Crime is common in this area."

"Hmph. So how many ways have escaping have you thought of?"

"Only two. One is in process right now."

"You always were a cunning fox." He sighs. "I need to find out what we're going to with you so my associates here will take care of you." He walks off, but not before checking my restraints and locking the door.

"Well, no time like the present." I mutter to myself as I activate my semblance. The binds on my freeze and become brittle. I break them then stand and stretch. "Operation 'Freeze Shock' is a go." I look at the door and inspect it. "...'Freeze Shock' is a stupid name. I don't need to do much damage. Looks like I'll just have to file a resignation for my job. This sucks…" I say to myself hearing the door open. "Uh oh. That's not good." I say as a girl with brown and pink hair walks in with a confident smirk. We stare at each other. "Hello." I say awkwardly. Mystery girl gives me a slight wave. "Are you supposed to making sure I stay put in my cell?" I ask carefully. She shakes her head. "Okay, are you here to help me get out of here?" She shakes her head again. "Do you plan on speaking?" Another no from her. "Whatever." I sigh noticing she's blocking the easiest escape route. I consider asking her to move, but it was to awkward to say anything. I look at the wall and figure I might be able to bust out from there. It'd take some time, time I'd prefer not to use, but better than asking for help from a stranger. Once the sizable piece of the wall was frozen I got to work breaking it down. That was one of the most difficult things I've done today... second only to waking up.
