Look at you windleopard, first favoriting AND THEN reviewing! Thank you for both the compliment and the luck, both of which I desperately need (especially the latter XD ).
"So how are we tackling this?" Sonya asked.
"It'll do us no good if she knows a telepath is a part of her questioning."
"Raiden's right, I need to stay out of sight. For now at least," Kenshi affirmed, nodding.
"What's the most low-key of your abilities?" Sonya asked, hoping for an angle of attack.
"Lie detecting. When a person lies, they think of the truth, even for a split second. That's all the window I need."
"Good." Sonya turned immediately to start the interrogation. Enough time had been wasted waiting on Kenshi's arrival, more Black Dragons were falling off the grid by the hour. She pressed the 10 digit code into the keypad above the knob before opening the door to a room empty except for a stiff chair and a metal table that had a sai stabbed into it.
"What the hell?" she said, eyes widening in fear. She tapped at her wrist, causing a prototype drone to appear above her shoulder. She approached the sai, the drone following her closely, scanning the room for signs of the prisoner. Sonya looked at the darkened window, hoping the rest of her team was watching closely, ready to sound the alarm if necessary. She reached out, and touched the weapon, when it began to glow a soft pink.
"Shit," was all she could manage when Mileena appeared on the table, both sais in hand. Her upper arms were glowing with a strange pink glow. She jumped onto Sonya's neck, legs first. Using the momentum, she swung her hands down to the floor, and lifted Sonya over her hand with a handstand. Kneeling next to the Major, she shoved her two legs against her head, sending the major tumbling against the table, toppling it over the groaning woman. Mileena looked hungrily to the open entrance, and started to run towards it when she froze in place, shaking uncontrollably, a strange and painful sensation taking over her. It ended, but when she took another step towards the door, the same sensation took over her. She looked over her shoulder to see the drone hovering above the major, kneeling, who was toggling with the buttons of her wrist.
"This is Major Sonya Blade calling for an immediate lockdown of the entire facility, I went all doors locked until further notice," she spoke into her device. The door of the interrogation room closed after a long series of low beeps. Sonya smirked at the prisoner. "Didn't think it was that easy did you? Looks like you have a fight on your hands," she said, rising into a fighting stance, arms in front of her face.
"I suppose, if you are what a fight can be considered," she retorted, smiling a wicked smile as she put both arms at the ready. With no warning, a sai materialized in her hand, which she threw at the drone hovering over them. It hit the floor, a sai in its front until it disappeared, materializing in Mileena's hand once more. With no warning, she threw the same sai at Sonya, who dipped to the side. Sonya aimed a blast of energy at the mutant, but in a flash of pink, she disappeared. The Major turned around, confused, when she noticed the sai that Mileena had thrown moments ago was beginning to glow.
"Not this time," Sonya said, summoning another drone forward, an electric charge ready to fire from its turret. Sonya also reached up towards the drone, and picked a holster of three grenades it carried, attaching it to her upper leg. She prepped the first, ready to toss.
A flash of pink appeared in front of Sonya, triggering the motion sensors of the drone, which caused it to fire, but Mileena was ready, disappearing into the ground, and reappearing above both, kicking down the drone as she dropped. Sonya sent two jabs forward before sending a roundhouse that Mileena ducked below, sweeping Sonya off her feet. Mileena jumped forward for the kill, but Sonya rolled back, throwing her first grenade at her, which sent a concussion blast upon contact, sending Mileena against the wall. Sonya threw her second grenade, but Mileena rolled under it, getting up on her hands. She swung down her right leg hard, knocking the third grenade out of Sonya's hand before getting back on her two feet. Mileena kicked at Sonya's shin before sending a kick to Sonya's stomach lifting that same leg to kick her chin upwards with enough force to lift Sonya on her toes. She tackled Sonya to the ground, and made to bite her head when Sonya's legs wrapped themselves around Mileena's neck, slamming her backwards to the ground.
Both women got up, breathing heavily, circling each other. Sonya, her back facing the one-way window, sent a flurry of kicks at Mileena before throwing in her face a pink dust. Blinding the prisoner, she dropped into a handstand, and lifted Mileena in the air before smashing her on the floor behind her. While the mutant was still blinded, she pulled out her garrote wire, and placing the heavy-duty wire in the palm of her right hand, which was closed in a fist. "What are you waiting for, beautiful?" she taunted, waiting the next blow.
Eyes still stinging, Mileena roared angrily, stomping her foot before raging forward with a stab of her sai. With a sharp, winding sound, Sonya pulled out the garrote, catching the hand at the wrist. Sonya quickly did the necessary loops around the hand before wrapping it around Mileena's neck as well. Forcing the mutants head on her knee, she brought Mileena to her own knees. Unwrapping the wire around the prisoner's wrist, she looped Mileena's neck a few more times with the wire before proceeding to choke her into unconsciousness. Unwrapping the wire, she talked again into her wrist-com, "Major Blade here," a deep breath interrupted the sentence before she continued, "The situation has been contained."
Raiden watched from the other side of the window, shaking her head. "For now," he said, knowing the unfortunate fact that more was to come.
