Chapter 4:
Bryan was now in the cells of a ship, apparently Xin had no idea of his daughter working with the Templars. Xin was still emperor, but he must hand over the throne to Mai when she is married to Bryan. Bryan looked at the nearest guard then to Xin. "Who are these guys?" he asked.
Xin grunted. "Templars, they believe in conquer, force their will and believes onto the people. Evil men.". Bryan then looked at Mai who was coming to the cell. "Bring him." She ordered. The guards grabbed Bryan and took him to a separate room. Where he was thrown onto a bed and tied up. He was thinking to himself what the hell was going on. But that was answered when Mai stepped in only wearing a white gown. She approached him slowly. As she sat on the edge of the bed, she was fiddling with Bryan's pants. He didn't like this. He switched into Titan mode and broke out of the robes, grabbing Mai by the throat and lunging to the floor, while she gave an excited yelp.
Pinning her on the floor, he threatened her in a dragon like voice. "Never try that again!". Mai seemed to be enjoying this. "That was fun. Shall we continue?" she asked. Bryan then got up. "I don't think so.". The guards took him and threw him back in the cells. A month at sea later they arrived at the docks of China. Bryan was cuffed by his wrists and ankles; the chain was linked with Xin's restrained. The people were booing Mai, but the Templars then shuts them up by firing arrows on the people, many were killed and those survived were forced to swear their allegiance to Mai and the Templars.
At the palace, Mai was getting comfortable on the throne. Xin was brought before his own daughter. Mai sat there with a crown on her head. "Did you enjoy my first week of ruler over China?" she asked mockingly. Xin only said one word. "No.". Mai sighed. "Such a shame.". Xin was beaten badly and thrown in a cell across Bryan's, he didn't have the opportunity to shave so he had a very messy beard growing on his face. "What do we do?" He asked. Xin shrugs. "I don't know.".
Bryan then chuckled at himself. "It's funny, I was already gonna marry my childhood best friend. I would've been happy, maybe have a kid or two, become chief, but now, it's all a fantasy.". Xin coughed as he looks across the cell bars. "I am sorry, I will do anything in my power to free you.".
But it never happened. The days turned to weeks, the weeks to months. Bryan was brought to Mai, beaten when he refuses, publicly humiliated by Templars, they usually strip him down naked and lash his back with a cat whip. (It's a nine point whip used to torture Jesus before he was hanged on the cross.).
He was thrown in the cell again, his beard was thick and rough. His hair is shoulder length. He was a twig. He crawled to the bucket and vomited. Xin, was also been tortured. His condition was worse then Bryan's. "Help will come, I know it.". Bryan chuckles. "I doubt it.".
Later the night. A man who's face was hidden by a hood. He was hiding in a bush. Two guards came by. The man jumped them and stabbed them with two hidden blades by his wrists. Looking over the palace jail block, his eyes were slits. "Templars. It's time I finish the job.".
