Chapter 3, The story of three Overlords, The horned Kell, Episode 6

We had sat in that cell for quite sometime speaking to each other trying to figure out what happened or what they thought we did. When suddenly SUzee Q2 had returned to the Cell door with a tray of food for me and two cans of Omolon coolant one for Cuban and one for Manhatton. I thanked her. Cuban just stared at her in silence as if something was eating at him. Manhatton didn't touch the can but merely stored it in his robe using some kind of magic I guess. She looked at us for a moment before asking why we didn't return to the Tower when we were being hailed. I explained that we heard about the Fallen Ketch and wanted to get a closer look but before we could reach it, it had left orbit. She looked at me and said we know all three of you left orbit with that ship. Until we know the truth behind the matter all three of you will stay in this Cell. She turned and walked away. We all talked for awhile longer after she left about what we were going to do if we escaped the Vanguard would try to hunt us down for sure. Manhatton thought of an Idea but that wouldn't explain how we got to the Earth's surface. It'd be impossible to transmat that far. Best of all Cuban chimed in we can't tell them the Truth if they knew about Redreksis they'd kill him for sure. Well I said to Cuban and Manhatton we could try to get out of here first. Besides people know who we are we've killed a couple champions of the Darkness I'm sure there are people fighting for us to be released I'm sure they'll understand if we break out. Cuban smiled right well no one has made it out of the Brig alive on an escape attempt but let's give it a try. Manhatton rose holding his palms together he separated them revealing a Void ball he threw it into the door disintegrating it. Barely making a sound there's a Camera right outside our cell. Cuban cloaked himself and took down the Camera. There we Tons of Cells all the way down the Corridor I didn't know where we were. We started running down the Corridor to the right hearing screams as other wanted us to free them I even heard a few fallen voices. As we reached the end of the Corridor it veered left we kept going and then it Happened the Wall on the Right Exploded with Arc energy we could hear hundreds of gun shots as the wall gave way we saw Redreksis Leap through the Opening with two Fallen Captains Adorning cloaks that matched his own the Skiff waiting Outside received a rocket to the Engine sending it to the City streets below Guards started racing down the Hall towards us Redreksis gave out a mighty Roar aiming one of his swords at the Guards his Captains charging in attacking. It gave us a second to think Redreksis looked down at us. This wasn't meant to be so loud. He said in a low tone. We ran down the Hallway beating the Guards down as we went as took some of their weapons and raced along the Corridor again. The Exit must be close Manhatton's ghost appeared stating there's an opening up ahead. As we turned the corner to the Right Rico, Marcus and SUzee Q2 were there waiting. The Captains didn't Hesitate Rico was the first to be cut down being impaled through the chest and then having his weapon ripped from his hands and thrown to the ground. Marcus had a shotgun ready but he wasn't quick enough The other Captain was already upon him and had knocked him to the ground unconscious. SUzee Q2 had been picked up by Redreksis her Handcannon crushed in his Hand I told him to wait as he picked her up by the Breastplate ready to kill her. We'll take her with us she be more useful to us as a prisoner. What! She screamed you'll never take me alive Cuban just smiled and said we already have. We opened the door Vandals were fighting off a Tower VTOL dropping off more Guards another skiff came down from orbit ramming the VTOL off of the platform sending it careening below. We boarded the Skiff Strapped SUzee Q2 into her seat and prepped to exit orbit. Redreksis turned to us we will have to return here he spoke as if he forgot something. What do you mean I asked. He responded the only reason I knew you were in trouble was because of the fallen in that prison with you saw you brought in they were able to reach me with a broken transmitter that's how I was able to get to you so easily. Cuban seemed surprised by this. Redreksis risked his own life to come and get us out. Obviously we could trust him. SUzee at this point wasn't happy at all. You've been working with the Fallen you traitors the council will know the Vanguard will find us and when they do they'll kill you all. We broke orbit I could feel it. It wasn't long before the skiff opened it's lower panels dropping us off before landing in the Cargo bay. I held SUzee's wrists behind her as we walked past the now active and operational spider tank that was receiving a new coat of paint to match that of the new house. She seemed surprised that we were on a Ketch more like shocked I guess. We walked down the hall to the Throne room Where four thrones sat upon lifted Pedestals one large one that Fit Redreksis and three smaller ones for us in front of them sat a Table with twelve chairs and a table at which sat 10 Fallen captains. As we passed it the two fallen Captains sat down in Adjacent seats. Redreksis explained that this was his inner circle his most trusted fallen members. Manhatton sat in the Throne next to Redreksis. I put SUzee in front of our thrones on her knees and then I took her Radio from her helmet. Me Cuban sat down. Redreksis asked why we brought her I simply said she might have useful information for us. Cuban was the first to ask why they had put us in the brig. She responded Hesitant at first that they thought we might have discovered something of interest to the Vanguard at first but then they thought we were captured when we left orbit. But coming back down from orbit undetected was unprecedented something that shouldnt have been possible. Manhatton asked what the Vanguards plan was for us she replied they didn't have one they wanted to keep you imprisoned until they could decide. But that was before he attacked she exclaimed glaring at Redreksis as he took a drink from a goblet sitting by his throne. He exhaled as he returned her Glare. Redreksis asked why the Fallen were being held in the brig and why they had not been killed. She responded that they were a select few that had the ability to speak English the Cryptarch's wished to keep them for their research. I asked Redreksis to have her unbound and that she be guarded by fallen that could speak English he obliged. As 6 Vandals came in the escorted her out of the room. We walked to the Armory Redreksis offered us any weapon we wanted. I took a Shrapnel launcher Cuban took a Wire rifle and so did Manhatton. We walked to the main hall before the throne room Redreksis asked what we should do with SUzee Q2 I said well keep her for now until we know what's going on Manhatton saw that she was assigned a room on the ketch. And as Acting Archon him and Redreksis discussed the fallen laws for the house of Lords. Me and Cuban Decide to assign ourselves a room and get some rest the Vanguard will be hunting us and its going to be awhile before the heat goes away enough that we can speak to the Vanguard. To be continued....
