The bleek lights flickered as two met eyes. A hooded figure and a robed tallen. The heat radiating from the robed tallen as she reached for the mounted ax that hung on the wall. Moving swiftly toward the robed tallen the hooded figure reached for the keys on the desk. Lifting the ax off its hooks and with a powerful swing sliced the desk in half. Dodging her swing, swirling the keys around his finger, slaming his foot on her wrist. A blade extending to the tip of her jugular. Forcefully lifting her hand, his blade missing his mark and knocking him off balance. Stepping back he stowed the key in his pocket.

"Hold still, you weasel." Growled the robed tellen.

"Seems that temper still hasn't gotten any better." Boasted the hooded figure

Swinging her ax over his head and pasted his shoulder. The hooded figure danced around her ax gracefully before sliding his blade into her open hand nailing it to the wall behind them. Dropping the ax and grabbing the hooded figure by the throat. Tossing him through the door into the hallway. Pulling the blade out of her hand the hooded figure ran off down the hall. Walking to one half of the desk and pressing a button the alarm sounded.

Meanwhile the hooded figure unlocked cell number ninety-four. Him and the prisoner making their way down the hallway toward the stairs leading toward the elevator. At the elevator doors stood two guards. Shoulder basing the guard with his baton out. The hooded figure grabbed the other by his arm, flipped him and stomped him out. Knocking both guards out using their keyboard to open the elevator.

"Escape won't be so easy my little friends." A voice blared on the intercom as the elevator stopped on the third floor.

Popping the emergency elevator door they climbed out to the fourth floor. Opening the door pulling one door at a time as a patrol passed by. Cautiously stalking down the hallway they snagged guard uniforms from the changing room and mosey their way out the front door undetected.

Hot wiring a car outside the retirement clinic they drove away.

"Elaine is back in town, we've got more problems than I thought. We better warn everyone about this." Said the prisoner, as he removed his handcuffs with the key the hooded figure tossed him.

"Not to mention the other asylums that they have stationed all over the city. We've got a lot of work to do." Said the hooded figure shifting gears.
