A/N:
POV of this chapter is going to be Peril.
Chapter 36
Peril paced back and forth in one of the courtyards on Jade University's campus. Cobra had told her he would meet her there, but he hadn't shown up and he was fifteen minutes late. Finally, she pulled out her phone to text him, only to seethat her phone was dead.
Groaning, she shoved her phone back into her pocket, before walking towards one of the exits to the courtyard. She turned the corner and darted back around it. Peering back around it, she saw Moon and Silver being lead at gunpoint towards a black van. She growled to herself, before coming out from behind the corner, her feet pounding the ground as she sprinted towards Moon and Silver.
The man whirled as he heard her, but didn't bring his gun up. Instead, he smiled at her, and Peril suddenly was seized by uncertainty. There was a slight crunch behind her, and she skidded to a stop, pivoting on one foot so she wa facing the way she had come. A couple feet from her stood an IceWing. The IceWing grinned as he raised a gun. Peril glared at him, and he pulled the trigger. Instead of a loud bang, two prongs shot towards Peril, hitting her. Peril arced her back as a jolt of electricity shot through her body. She felt herself falling, then her vision went black.

Peril woke up gasping. Her eyes darted around and she noticed Moon and Silver nearby, watching her. Peril sat up, feeling her hands pinned behind her back. Glancing over her shoulder, she saw a pair of handcuffs around her wrists.
"Peril, you okay?" Moon asked. Peril shrugged, wincing as her muscles shrieked in protest.
"I guess." She said, before glancing over at Silver, who hadn't said anything. "What about Silver?"
Moon looked at the hybrid in concern. Her voice quavered slightly as she said "When we were being brought in here, Silver tried to escape. They hit her pretty hard on the head."
Peril looked at the hybrid in concer, then her head whipped around as a door opened. Two SkyWings stepped in, walking towards her. They grabbed her roughly, and one of them shoved a sack over her head. She felt herself being led through multiple hallways, even up a set of stairs. Then she felt herself being shoved into a chair, feeling ropes being tied around her ankles.
"My treacherous friend, this message goes out to you." A silky voice said nearby, and Peril's eyes widened as she realized who it was. "You betrayed me, and that angered me greatly. Now, I have a decision for you to make."
The sack was ripped of her head and Peril blinked several times, trying to refocuse her eyes. Then she yelped as someone grabbed her hair, pulling her head back. Something cold pushed into the skin beneath her chin, and she froze.
"You have two days to make your decision." Inferno said, standing right behind her. "Either turn yourself in and she lives, or keep yourself safe, and she dies. And then we'll move on to your two friends girlfriends."
Peril gathered enough of her courage to shout "Don't do it Cobra! Don't.." Then something hit her hard on the back of the head, and she blacked out.
LINE
She woke up groaning. Moon was kneeling beside her, her hand holding Perils head off the floor. Peril glanced towards her own hands to see that the handcuffs had been removed.
"I have two days." She muttered. "And then I either die or Cobra does." Then she passed out again, her tortured mind overwhelming her with nightmares.
