Riley awoke in a cold, badly lit, damp cell. Sitting up she took a look around. "Where am I" she muttered, the whole ordeal coming back to her.
She'd been betrayed and the worst part was that no one knew where she was. Remy & the others thought she was headed for Louisiana.
Finally getting sick of sitting in the dark she stood up and held her hand out. "And let there be light." She said as she concentrated on creating an orb of electricity.
Nothing happened. Frowning, she tried again only to have the same result.
What's going on? She wondered.
"Aw Riley-Anne." A voice boomed.
Riley jumped as she saw a figure appear. "who are you?" she ordered, drawing from a courage she thought she had lost.
"I see you can make demands just as good as any princess." He said in a creepy voice. "I thought you didn't want to be a princess yet you've gotgiving ordersdown pat." He sneered.
Riley glared at him. "You'll be sorry you ever messed with the LeBeau's!" she threatened. "Not to mention the X-Men!"
The man laughed. "You think they can beat I, Sinister?" He teased. "Well let me tell you my dear, I always win!"
"Not for long." She mumbled. Sighing she knew she needed to come up with a plan, but nothing coming to her. "What do you want with me?" she asked.
Sinister smirked. "Aw so now you've decided to be polite, well I suppose that I can tell you. It's not like you'll be going anywhere soon." He told her.
Riley refrained from rolling her eyes. "Please..." she said, her voice showing nervousness.
"I want you to join my team that I've put together, there are a few other things but for now lets just say I think we might someday have something between us." He replied.
Riley fought to stay calm. Pretend it doesn't scare you. She told herself silently. "Can I come out?" she asked hopefully.
Sinister thought for a moment. "I suppose so if you want time to change for dinner tonight." He murmured, deciding that tonight would be a good time to introduce Riley-Anne to the others. "Yes, but if you anger me, you'll be very sorry." He warned.
"I wont." She quickly promised.
"Very well." He replied, then unlocking the cell door.
Riley stepped out and was immediately seized by the arm and led up the stairs and to the main floor where they then went to the second floor where sinister showed Riley to her room.
"on your bed is a dress." He said. "Wear it for dinner."
Riley frowned at the order. The dress was a mocha color and it was cut in a pixyish cut at the bottom which went only a few inches past her thighs.
"The word hoochie comes to mind." She said, annoyed.
"Good." Sinister replied. "Sometimes that's what a man likes to see."
Riley paled. He couldn't be serious. This dress would never fly at home. Remy would lock her in her room before even considering letting her down the stairs and she could forget even trying to get out the door. "Excuse me?" she asked.
"You heard me." He replied as he exited the room. "Be ready by 7:30." He said shutting the door behind him, locking it as well.
Riley glared at the door. "The word Psycho comes to mind as well." She said angrily.
"Sometimes that's what a man likes to see." She mocked.
Sitting on the bed Riley sighed. What was she going to do? And it now seemed impossible to escape. This place was like air force one or something. She thought the institute was top security this place was just as good if not even more so it seemed.
Bowing her head she said a small prayer. "God keep me safe, and please look after Remy and the others. I fear that they'll get hurt when the confrontation comes. And please let me stay in control for I also fear that sinister will do what ever it takes to make people do what he wants and that scares me. I've heard the stories from the others." She whispered.
She then looked up and decided to go over the room. Maybe one of the bars on the windows were loose or something. She thought as she began to search for a way out.
