-Taking Care Of Problems-
Note—I did not create Dead or alive or any of it's characters. Any character of my own like Sadokenne appearing in games or real life events, is just a coincidence.
Chapter 7: Reunited
Ryu bashed the lock with the butt of his sword a few times and the rusty lock fell to the ground. He entered the cell and right as he stepped in a shadowy figure tackled him screaming and yelling. Ryu struggled to free himself from the crazed figure's grip. He finally threw the mystery man to the side and the moon shown off his face. He was an old man of about sixty. He had a long graybeard, and rotted teeth. He sat huddled in the corner crying and rocking back and forth. Ryu figured he had been a prisoner for many decades and had gone crazy long ago. He didn't have the heart to kill him. He was in enough mental pain and misery, so Ryu exited the cell, and entered the other prison room. Ryu knew Ayane had to be in this room, there were no other cells. he hurried to the cells and sure enough there she was, curled up in a fetal position on the ground. Ryu quickly broke the lock and rushed in. "Ayane! Ayane wake up! I'm here for you!" Ryu rested her head on his shoulder as she struggled from hunger. "Ryu? I knew you would come..." She said weakly. "Come on, we need to escape before things get rough!" said Ryu. He helped her to her feet and brushed the filth off her jacket. Ryu saw bruises on her face and arms. "They'll pay for this, I swear it" he said cracking his knuckles. Ayane tightened her headband and stretched. "Don't worry, I'm not injured too badly...so did you bring me any presents?" she laughed. "Of course" Ryu responded. He handed her the shurikens, headband and birthstone necklace and her face lit up. It was probably the only smile she had shown in the past few days. She put on the necklace and hugged him. Ryu could feel the pain in his shoulder as she covered his wound with her elbow. "Ryu your bleeding!" she winced. "It's nothing serious, it's only a gash" he responded. "Well I won't let it get infected!" She then took off her ragged bandanna and wrapped it tightly around the wound. She then put on his custom headband he had given her. "There now its better" she said. "Ay, we better get going, Kasumi is waiting outside and we need to be quick" Ryu pleaded. "So she does care..." she said under her breath. Ryu handed over her favorite dagger and she unsheathed it proudly. "It's payback time" she said.
They exited the cell and ran past the crazy old man. "Hey shouldn't we help him?" Ayane asked Ryu. "No, just leave him, he'll find his own way out" he said. Ryu led Ayane past the two decapitated guards and she laughed and smiled. "Did they put up a fight for my tough ninja?" she laughed. "Never!" Ryu yelled. They continued their escape when Ayane stopped in front of the grand corridor. "Ayane, c'mon let's go!" whispered Ryu "No... I want revenge against Sadokenne!" she said angrily. "I do too but now's not the time! I don't want to lose you again!" he said. "Ryu please, there is no honor in running away! We can do it together! I know we can...Ryu, please..." "Alright, but we have to be quick!" Ryu glared. "For honor Ayane." "For Honor Ryu." They then creeped down the corridor to Sadokenne's room. There were three elite guards in the room and they took notice of their presence. They didn't care.
Guard captain- Shit! We've got company! You two wake up and grab your weapons!
Ayane took no time in throwing one of her newly acquired shuriken's right at the guard's head.
Ryu downed one of the guards and had the last guard in a chokehold before the previous guard's body fell to the floor. "Such skill..." Ayane whispered to herself. Ryu held his hand over the guard's mouth so he couldn't scream. "Hey Ayane, I have a little toy for you" Ryu laughed. "Oh boy, this is the best present of all!" she gleamed. He let her play with the guard's mind. She lightly sliced his chest and cheek with her dagger. She jabbed him a few times until she saw his eyes roll back in his head. She gave him the death stare and slit his throat. Ayane wiped the blood off on the guard's uniform. She looked at Ryu with proud eyes and he smiled back. "Have fun?" asked Ryu "The most fun I've had in awhile" she laughed. They stood in front of the door to Sadokenne's room. "I'm sure there's more "toys" on the inside Ayane" laughed Ryu. "Can't wait" she smiled. "Well this is it..." Ryu sighed.
