Sorry for taking so long, hope you like this chapter.
Raivis is Latvia
Kiku is Japan
It wasn't long before the mutant and the group of prisoners began to trudge through the the snow. Abel winced faintly , his wounds still hurt, and hoping it wouldn't get infected.
Even more hours past , Katyusha felt as if she couldn't walk anymore, her muscles burned and her wrists hurt against the rough metal that kept her chained up, like the rest of her allies. She wished she could just fall into the strange snow , and falling into a deep sleep. "We're...here." Abel responded and Katyusha's gaze fell onto a ruined city, many buildings were damaged yet one stood tall , one building that looked much older than the ones surrounding. This was Moscow. Some people came out of the buildings , some were human while others were mutants, and glanced around the area, spotting Abel and his prisoners. They silently watched him march down the somewhat destroyed streets until they arrived at the one that stood out from the rest.
Abel knocked onto the broken door of the building and a teenaged boy opened the door. His hair was blonde white dark blue-purplish eyes. He wore an old uniform with brown epaulettes. He wasn't that tall as well. "Y-You have more prisoners?" The boy said with a slight frown. Abel nodded in response to the young boy before walking into the building. "This way please," The somewhat frightened young boy said before leading Abel to where the prisoners were to be kept. And it wasn't long before all of them were stripped of their weapons, put into cells and had their chains taken off. Then, Abel left.
The cells were rather small and had large metal bars separating the prisoners to the outside world. The floor was dirty, some parts were even covered in dried up blood. Not to mention, there was nothing else in the cell, besides her and an old, rusted bucket. Katyusha looked around the room and her teal gaze focused on the boy for a moment, "I should tell the others what happened , m-maybe then all three of us could t-tell the Leaders, Ivan and Natalya." he said to himself before walking off. Katyusha sighed and her gaze fell onto the cell next to her. There was a man, whose hair was short and black, he was very dirty, and his old, white uniform was starting to look gray because of how dirty he was. Not to mention, his shoulder was wrapped in bandages there were multiple stains of blood throughout his dirty uniform. "Ah hello," The man said, his brown gaze falling onto Katyusha. "You must be new here, I am Kiku , Kiku Honda. I'm one of their longest lasting prisoners." He continued with a slight frown. "What is your name?" He asked her.
"Yekaterina, you may call me Katyusha though." The longest lasting of almost all their prisoners? She didn't want to know what happened to the ones who had died, she hoped the same fate wouldn't happen to her." Though, who was that boy that lead us here?"
"Ah, Katyusha-San, if you mind me calling you that, he is one of the Leader's many servants, Raivis, is his name, I think."
"Raivis," Katyusha repeated quietly to herself, before she continues "Anyways, how did you get here?"
"These people, they took me from my allies, or friends, and then sold me to this man, a merchant perhaps. They convinced him I was a part of some group or something that was conspiring against the merchant, or this land's, leaders. Now, they locked me up and some of the rings they did to me...I cannot explain." Katyusha fell oddly silent after Kiku had spoken of how he had gotten into this disgusting prison. "You ask a lot of questions, why is that? Are you knew to this area? Had you just came out of your government Shelter?"
"Governmental Shelter? What's that?"
"Multiple governments all over the world built shelters to protect their citizens in case of a nuclear war broke out between nations, at least that's what I think what happened. Though, some shelters were safe, while others , well, they put whoever was in their shelters into a dormant state, they put them to sleep, per say and they would all wake up at the same time. Yet, some shelters weren't owned by governments , but by people, people who had the money to buy such things." Kiku took in a deep breath before continuing "I was in one of the experimental shelters, in Japan, I awoke to find all the others in my shelter massacred, I don't know who did it. Yet next thing I knew, these two men found me, they are ,or were, my allies, as well as one other thing...but that is not important now."
Katyusha's eyes widened, had she been a part of some experimental shelter? She did not know , yet it seemed like it could've been the most probable answer. "Hey, can you keep a secret?" Kiku asked Katyusha, his brown gaze falling onto the Ukrainian for a moment. She nodded in response , wondering what Kiku was going to tell her. "I am planning to escape this place, now I need you to hide and protect this," Kiku then handed her a piece of crumbled up and folded paper, " also don't tell anyone , if you succeed , I'll get you out of here as well as some of your own allies." Katyusha nodded and put the paper in one of her pockets for safekeeping at the moment. Yet it wasn't long before the two heard footsteps and an opening of a door, unbeknownst of who was coming or had opened the door.
