Sira's pov
I gasp as i come to,looking around and i stand, or at least try to, but i barely get onto my knees before i realize the extremely tight gripping metal chains. The chains on my knees, around the bone part of my wings, my tail, my neck, my arms, i was utterly chained down, so i let myself collapse. I was in a bland white brick and motar cell, bars on the front. As well as a small window, but that was barred off too. I guess they chose to make extra precautions to make sure i don't escape. I focus and i feel my magic rise in me. Good, time to bust out. I wince as i rise again, the chain on my neck making it hard to breathe. I focus as my skin starts glowing and growing warmer, my light energy rising, and it erupts, and i cry out as i collapse again to the ground. My power fading as electricity sparks through me and the chains didn't even look partially melted. I catch my breath, but i sigh, i'm not gonna get out like this. I could only hope henry had a plan.
Henry's pov
I wake up in the Wall. Step 1, get ellie to trust me. I look over to ellie and i softly guesture to my hands, then up to the vent, she nods and understands, helping me up and i shatter my bonds, before pulling her up and she does the same, and i sign out," i have a friend here, a very powerful friend, do you know if anyone had to be put in higher accomodations?" She nods," yeah, i saw a girl with purple and black wings?" I nod fast, pointing to ellie." Thats her?" I nod again and she smirks." Lets go get your friend out of here." I smile and we move through the vent, soon ellie stops and says." She's right here." I smile and i kick out the vent door and sira looks up, and i jump down and ellie follows." Also what're your guy's names?" Sira responds for me," i'm Sira, and he's Henry, the chains are immune to my powers." Henry nods and pulls out a weird device, before signing to have me stand back and for sira to stay absolutly still. He activates it and grabs sira before the floor caves under her and ellie grabs them both, pulling them to safety as i help disconnect all of the chains. Sira sighs in relief, spreading her wings out." Let's move before the guards notice." Henry nods amd looks around, ellie looking confused as she asks," what is he doing?" "He's getting his berings, he knows his way around better then i. What's your name?" " call me Ellie Sira, how many times has he been here?" " a few, as far as i know." "You guys know each other long?" I shake my head, but i point where to go, after i had used a file on the bars. They may have made them immune to a goddess, but aparently didn't think about human means. I silently smirk as we clear out of the cell. I lead them to the elevator, after sira knocked out two guards and i took thier hats. Ellie flicks the lever to let all of the cells open and i nod, all was going to plan. Convicts quickly take the elevator and i throw the hats perfectly, causing the convicts to run after the hats and we step into the elevator, heading to the yard and i sign to sira," can you fly in the cold?" She nods," yeah, i can fly for a few hours maybe on my own, less the more i'm carrying." I inwardly groan and i sign," as soon as the elevator opens, fly, i know the way out on this path." Ellie was confused as she asked," this Path?" I wince, i need to work on my answers." I'll explain once we're clear, i-it's hard to understand." Ellie nods," ok, i understand. I dunno why, but i trust you." I smile and nod, glad she at leasts trusts me. The elevator opens and sira immediatly blasts past us as i grab ellie's wrist, breaking into a run, with her not far behind as i gun for the motorcycle, only to feel ellie ripped out of my arm, and i turn to see the Warden. A subtle smirk as i follow the timeline, making a silly face, and he gets hit by a millitary van, and i wave to ellie, telling her to hurry as she gets on the cycle first and the warden slams me down and i gasp, trying to move. I hear ellie start it up and move as the warden shouts in my face, but all i can do is smirk and i say," Heads up" soft enough so only he could hear. The stop sign slams him in the head and i gasp, taking in air quickly as i stand, taking ellie's hand and we drive off together. Sira laughs, flying down beside us, flapping softly and she asks," where to now?" I smile, pointing the way and sira nods, leading the way." Back to the military outpost?" I nod fast, signing," and now we wait for the rocket to be built. But first, i think we owe an explanation to Ellie. They all need to know about this timeline, maybe the timeline can finally end." Ellie yells out," what's he saying?" " we need to head to the nearest military outpost, we're with the goverment, we'll give you an explination there!" "Ay ok by me, hold on!" She revs the handles and we pick up speed. I hold on tight, sira keeping up with ease. We soon stop, sira landing and i notice her visibly shaking, her wings starting to be covered in frost and i sign to her," disguise yourself for now, otherwise your wings could get hurt from frostbite." She chuckles, saying," i was just about to, but either way your both shaking too, there's a hotel here. We should hunker down for the night and warm up." I nod in agreement, as we all head to the hotel, and sira pays for our admission, having disguised herself as a brown haired, hazel eyed human with a black leather jacket and sweatpants, the belt being her tail illusioned to look like a leather belt. We sit down in the room and ellie asks," so what did you mean by Path?" I sigh, finally saying," this world has been in a loop for quite some time. So many loops.... i've seen every single path and possibility, even done some funny achievements along the way. Sira was never a part of them, until now. She arrived after a Triple Trouble ending as i call it, where you, me, and a guy named charles formed an unstoppable spy group, tearing the Tophats to the ground. Either way, i've decided to finally break this stupid cycle. But i still have no clue how. I've tried so many ways, the last hope i have is that maybe Sira has a way, or finally telling all the main people i ally myself with, what is really going on." Ellie gasps at how broken my voice is from extreme lack of use and she asks," we're in a loop? For how long?" I look down." Almost 20 years. At first i thought it was a dream, until it repeated about 5 times. I started a timeline map." I pull out said map and i start unfolding it, spreading it over the floor and i point to the bank." That's the start, i wake up in front of it. I've tried running away, all i do is die by the desert. Or the bank van runs me over. But from there, it's really complex, but i've mastered and memorized every corner." Ellie looks it over and she asks," what ending are you gunning for now?" " i'm hoping that i can get us to ally with the tophats, to tell the RHM about the timeline before it resets, but i doubt it, he's a kill first, ask questions later, and even then, i worked with the goverment to get the leader, and i got you here ellie, so the only path is Triple Trouble." I point it out, showing her the path i took." Every choice navigated, so there's no deviating now." "Yes there is" sira says simply." I'm a wild card, a goddess among the dimensions, the time loop had been offsetting the balance for quite some time. This world has an unstoppable loop, built in by the person who created this world. But..... maybe i could help the loop out, finally create a balance within the loop, hmmm." Ellie then says," balance? What do you mean?" I silently smile and sign, falling back into my silent self." She's the Goddess of Balance, her job consists of more then just this world, from what little she's been giving me." Ellie nods as sira says," indeed. But your guy's world drew all of my attention." Sira sits on the ground in a meditative way. I've dabbled in meditation a bit myself, after all, when you have 20 freaking years to kill, you learn alot about what the world has to offer. I could only hope that when she was done, this loop can finally end.
