Rushzone AFC North - In the Dark Depth
Part 3: Bondage of Scars
October ?, 2015...
Blow-Torch lead K-9 and Fang down the stairs, taking their time to give Fang some more time to calm his own mind. The Bangle shoulders were wrapped in one of the blankets the two had packed before descending.
Fang: K-9 I am so sorry for attacking you I-I was-
K-9: I know, your mind was in pure panic mode with whatever that smell was. I'm just glad your okay.
Blow-Torch: Important thing is your okay. J-Just...*shivers* Shards what is with this guy.
Both turned to see Blow-Torch pale, shaking even as they reached the bottom of the stairs.
Blow-Torch: I just, everything is fine so why all this? What does he want with me? I-I'm finally letting my emotions out, I know what really happened for shards sake I-I actually have a Guardian whose a BROWNS FAN that I not only consider a friend but one of my confidants...
K-9: *chuckles* I figure Marty would be able to do that.
Fang nodded as he went over and nuzzled Blow-Torch, making the Steeler Rusher smile a bit.
Fang: I know what this guy is doing is, ALOT, but we've been though alot worse. Besides, we should focus on finding Scavenger. If he has you, me and K-9 here he gotta have Scavenger and who knows what he's doing to him. I know you have questions, but let's focus on getting all of us together.
Blow-Torch nodded as all three opened the door.
...
The area was different from the others...in fact it looked worse. Blood was now pooling in areas.
NO HESITATION WITH THE CONCEPT OF THE BANGLE BEING HERE. WILL SAY I'M IMPRESS.
Fang: *jumps* Is that him?
K-9: Yep.
Blow-Torch: *anger* Alright you psycho! THAT WAS TOO FAR MAKING FANG LIVE THROUGH THAT MEMORY! NOW YOUR GONNA TELL US WHERE IS SCAVENGER! HE'S GOT NOTHING TO DO WITH ANY OF THIS AND I SWEAR IF YOU HURT EVEN A FEATHER ON HI-
EASY THERE, YEESH DON'T GO PANICKING-
Fang: *ticked* YOU PSYCHO WE'RE ANGRY!
K-9: *ticked* Scavenger has nothing to do with what happened in the past with me Fang and Torch!
..HUMPH, STILL SURPRISES ME HOW MUCH YOU CARE FOR THAT RAVEN.
..That got K-9 eyes to go red.
K-9: Blow-Torch I wish to have first dibs to take this psycho down.
Blow-Torch: *places hand on K-9's shoulder* K-9, I understand...but, we find him first.
K-9 took a breath, sighing as his eyes returned to normal.
Blow-Torch: *looks around* I don't know who you are, but once we're out your going to be facing VERY ANGRY GUARDIANS AND THE AFC NORTH. Let's go.
With that all three ran down the halls.
...GET OUT? BELIEVE ME GETTING OUT IS THE HARD PART, BLOW-TORCH.
.
.
Blow-Torch stopped, surprising K-9 and Fang.
Blow-Torch: *quiet* Want to be far so he can't hear...*turns on flashlight* we need to have silence. If Scavs is here we're going to need to be quiet and focus.
Fang: *quiet;nods with K-9* Great idea, not to mention I was getting the creeps and ticked the more this guy talked.
K-9: *quiet* Same here, I just hope he's okay. It terrifies me what this creep could of done to him.
In silence, the three slowly looked around the halls as Blow-Torch shown the way. The soft sounds of footsteps were only heard.
...
The search felt like hours in the unknown time they have been in this place. Worry for their Raven member of the AFC North had increase with every step they took.
Blow-Torch: *quiet* Please, Please Scavs, any sign would do anything.
Fang: *quiet;stops;ears flick* H-hey, listen.
Both Blow-Torch and K-9 stopped, listening closely. They heard muffled screaming, as well as something banging on the ground.
K-9: *quiet* T-That's gotta be Scavenger!
All three listen, till Blow-Torch pointed to a door. Without hesitation all Fang and K-9 sent their ability to the door, breaking it apart and Blow-Torch ran in.
Blow-Torch: SCAVENGER!
?: Mmmhhh? MMMMMPPPHH!
Blow-Torch turned the light to a corner as K-9 and Fang ran in.
...There was Scavenger, gagged and blindfolded. He was tied up with some blood dripping from his beck as he tried to break free.
All three bolted over and ripped the gag off, Scavenger coughing as they ripped the blindfold off too. The Raven Rusher blinked as he adjusted his vision, slowly looking up to see Blow-Torch, K-9 and Fang.
K-9: *concern* Scavenger a-are you okay?
Fang: *concern* He didn't hurt you did he?
..Nothing. That made the three more worried given he did not respond.
Blow-Torch: *very concern* S-Scavenge-
Scavenger tackled all three in a hug, tears falling down his face as he nuzzled into the three.
Scavenger: You have no idea how much I'm so happy to see you guys. T-This, means the world to me seeing you guys.
All three froze, before they warmly smiled as they hugged Scavenger back. It was quick, as Blow-Torch grabbed all three hands and ran out. He looked around for an exit, but saw another door with a stairs sign. Nodding, he ran over and all four ran inside with the door slamming behind them.
Meanwhile, Pittsburgh Area...
Marty and Swoop (with Pick-Ax holding onto Swoop) flew in the air towards the destination RZ had pin-pointed Wildcard to be at. Sure enough there he was heading right for Heinz Field.
Marty: *sends a blast* HEY YOU!
Wildcard jumped away from the blast, looking up to see the Guardian and two Rusherz land.
Wildcard: Well Well, been a while hasn't it. I suppose your here to ask me where those four Rusherz of the AFC North are?
Swoop: *annoyed* YA THINK?! THREE TIMES WARREN! THREE TIMES YOU ARE INVOLVED WITH KIDNAPPING RUSHERZ!
Pick-Ax: *serious* You better tell us where they are and what your planning or so help me-
Wildcard threw Marty a tablet, surprising the three.
Marty: *wary* Okay, what's your game here?
Wildcard: Have a feeling you of all people could get them out. Was planning on getting the Steeler Megacore, but..EVEN I DON'T WANT WHATEVER THAT IS GETTING OUT.
Swoop was about to step forward, but Marty stopped him. Marty looked at both Rusherz, both could see his gaze from the visor. Nodding, they let the Faithful Browns fan take over.
Marty: What do you mean you don't want something getting out. *raises hand;offense* And you better not think of running off cause I WILL HUNT YOU DOWN.
Wildcard nodded, knowing full well there was a bigger problem at hand.
Wildcard: All I can say is...I recreated a invention my father invented. ONE YOU KNOW VERY WELL GUARDIAN.
