Beastfire: Here's the new chapter! Enjoy!
Frus and Vrust knew now more than ever that they had to get Ivy out of there...and FAST! They both figured that the torture would be unimaginable. If they didn't find a way to save her soon, the sounds of her tortured screams would rip them to shreds emotionally.
Inside, Butch had strapped Ivy to a wall, and with her squirming to get away, it was no easy task.
"Squirm all you want," he hissed in her ear. "It'll make you all the more tempting of a target."
He left to get his "toys", leaving Ivy alone with the corpses. She looked around and saw a horned mutant head above her, looking a bit loose. She slammed herself against the wall to the best of her ability and the head fell, cutting through the straps (and cutting Ivy a little, but that's just a small price to pay). She dropped to the floor, bleeding a bit, and landed on a human corpse. She decided to arm herself...with a leg. She ripped a leg from the body and Butch came back.
"How did you get free?" he demanded when he saw his would-be victim holding the leg.
"I'm smarter than you," she gloated before nailing him below the belt with the leg. Butch fell to the floor and Ivy proceeded to beat him with the leg. When he was down, she used a large amount of her energy to drag him to another set of straps and restrained him with them. She ran to the door, tripping over a headless body along the way. She heard a loud CRACK and thought, 'Oh, that had better be the dead guy...' It wasn't. Her ankle had cracked, but she really couldn't care less. She slammed the leg from before into the door until it cracked open and she was able to get out. She came face to face with Vrust, who was using his Phoenix Talons to get through. He'd stopped when he heard the pounding.
"Ivy?" Frus asked. "Is that you?"
"No," Ivy said sarcastically, "it's the leprechaun that lives in Shorty's stomach."
Frus laughed, as did Ivy. She limped over to him and sat down, wound still bleeding a little. He sat by her, putting his arm around her shoulders. He noticed the blood.
"Ivy, what happened? You're bleeding," he said with concern.
"Just a couple accidents...one involving a mutant head with horns and the other with a headless body. I'll be fine," she reassured him, giving him a hug.
Neither one really cared that she was bleeding on him too. When they let go, Frus got up and supported Ivy's weight.
"We should probably get going," Frus suggested.
Ivy and Vrust both agreed and looked around. The demon had left and Ivy was trying to get to the microchip in her flame, but couldn't reach it. She knew that she'd be able to use her healing power if it were pulled out...
