It had been rather peaceful for Delphina, she’d been in jail for the better part of a week. She hadn’t been badly treated per say. But she was beginning to get agitated at being locked up within this small space and unable to continue with what she thought of as her grand mission. How was she going to add people to her collective and keep them safe if she didn’t get to meet people and decide if they were worth the while of joining her? Not to mention they kept insisting and forcing upon her the stupid jacket that pinned her arms around her body to stop her being able to use them. It wasn’t all that hard to get out of the thing, her rather unique body among the other people she’d met so far meant she could just bring her arms out of the sleeves with some ease. Each time she did it only proved that someone was watching her as they rushed in and re-restrained her within the jacket and made the thing tighter.
Today however, as she stared up at the far too tall window and at the last of the sunshine, she decided that enough was enough. She had accepted the police’s hospitality for far too long now, it was a bother for them to keep her fed and housed she was sure. So she would have to find some way to make her leave, despite them being rather insistent that she was to stay. How to do it was the problem, though she decided to take conference on the matter and discuss ideas with her other minds. Only for her to hit upon a rather obvious solution to the matter. They burst in each time she got out of the jacket, meaning that for the time it took them to get into the room, they had to leave the door open. If she was able to wedge the door as they did so. She’d have all the time she needed to smack around the poor officers who were just doing their jobs. She didn’t feel the need to claim them yet, they had decided that the police were much more useful in keeping the riff raff away from her lovely people.
She’d been kept mostly isolated from the other prisoners after the first day, she’d nearly killed one of them for what he had claimed to have done to a little girl. Insinuating that he’d do the same to Delphina when given half an opportunity. It was the other reason they insisted that she stay in the jacket as her arms had formed into a pair of heavy blades and she’d tried without success to cut the man in half. As it was, he’d have a scar that he wouldn’t forget in a hurry across his chest for offending the collective like that. Especially considering the number of young girls that made up the original core of Delphina. She’d probably have to deal with him as well before she left here. So she’d have to render the poor police unconscious when they tried to stop her leaving. She couldn’t just leave the asshole unpunished. The sun had finally set and darkness hit the cell proper, lights out had been a while ago and in the darkness Delphina’s eyes gleamed as she put her plan together. It had been a little tricky back when she’d first been split to move the individual bits of her that had been severed. Now though, it was going to be an essential part of her efforts to make life as difficult as possible for the sleepy night watch and enable her escape.
Pieces of her were left across the room, very carefully and slowly so as not to attract attention from the likely watcher making sure that she wasn’t causing any fuss. She couldn’t have them warning the others of what she was doing and it was only due to the likely poor quality of the night vision on the cameras that she’d ever get away with doing this. Even then if they were being too observant they might notice anyway and she’d be hit with the damn shock sticks all over again and have to make a new plan from scratch. Thankfully, it seemed she was able to place the pieces of herself down without incident and she sat down, making sure she could feel each of them out. She couldn’t test the movement right away however, so much she couldn’t try until she went and did it. But she could at least make sure she could feel out all the pieces that she’d gone and lain down of herself and twitch them ever so slightly so that she knew she was still capable of controlling them to any degree.
Well, that was about all she could do to prepare. Now she just had to wait and hope the guards weren’t too awake when she tried to pull this off, she didn’t wait too long though. She remembered hearing the guards changing hands near her cell once and it was only a few hours after the sun went down then. So she had to act before the fresh guards showed themselves. She slipped out of the jacket rather easily and went over to the window. Gently pushing at the window once more by floating up to it. That got their attention last time and they had assumed that she was trying to escape instead of get a better view. Predictably, the noises came from the door and someone started to turn the key in the lock. She dropped to the floor and watched it carefully, checking she could still feel her pieces and feeling ever so hollow at keeping herself the same size despite how much of her was scattered across the floor and walls of the cell.
She struck almost the moment the three guards finished entering the cell, just as the last one turned to lock the door her pieces surged forwards, colliding into each guard at once and slamming them into the part of her stuck to the wall, pinning them in place between her lumps of flesh and effectively keeping them pinned to the wall, she wouldn’t have long before more came. Likely the one watching the camera was still there and would have alerted anyone else in the area what was happening. She snatched the keyring from the third guard, recalling him to be called Charlie. He had been nice enough and had provided her with food the other guards said wasn’t in the room. So she gave him a little pat on the head before stepping outside the room, as she heaved the door shut her flesh sprang off the guards and slithered through the gap to join her, bringing her back to normal and allowing her to slam the door shut and turn the key in the lock before the guards could pull it open once more.
Now came the much more difficult part of the plan. Finding the asshole who deserved everything that Delphina was going to bring to him. But this place was rather big, there were lots of criminals here. How best to find out what she wanted? Maybe she could offer to let some of them out, it’d certainly keep the guards distracted from finding her if there were lots of them running around. She stepped outside the door next to hers and opened the little slot in the door, floating up to see through it at the seemingly scared burly man inside who had likely heard the commotion that had come through the walls as the guards called out to her to stop what she was doing.
“Hewwo thewe, do you knyow which box has the man who twied to huwt me in?”
He seemed mostly confused so she showed him the key and pointed to the door before repeating her little statement, he seemed reluctant however, so Delphina shut the little hatch and tried again at the next cell. Then the next, then the next again. Five tries later and she had the information she wanted, letting the strange little man inside out of his cell. He seemed rather overjoyed at the idea and even more so when Delphina gave him the bunch of keys and told him to keep the guards busy. Maybe that had been a bad idea, but she needed more time now that she knew where the asshat was. Getting the information had taken too long and she could hear in her mind’s eye the guards gearing up with the shock sticks and heavy armour and they’d be following her all too soon.
In fact, by the time she had found the little box with her target inside, she could hear the cries and angry shouts that was the prisoners fighting against the guards. It also meant that she wasn’t going to be able to leave through the door like she’d originally hoped to do. Oh well, she’d have to improvise, or just get caught all over again. Just so long as the man inside never hurt any more little kids, she’d be a happy girl and content to wait for another opportunity to escaoe and continue her quest. She was risking rather a lot with this minor bit of revenge however, but she felt it was worth the while in fact they all felt like it was worthwhile, noramlly when she decided on violence, there was always one or two voices that protested against it. Now however, she was of one sound mind.
The hatch was open and she peeked in. Seeing the guy sat up watching the door, during her walk here the lights had come back on. Presumably so the guards could see what they were doing now that they were being violent towards the escapees. So he got a glimpse of her before she started to squeeze through the hatch and into his cell, her smile alone as she reformed into herself made him back up and into the corner, producing a make shift shiv from under his bed he swiped it in the air at her a few times as if they was going to make her back up. Her arms drooped as they reshaped and she was left holding a large almost comedicly oversized mallet before stepping forwards and advancing upon the unfortunate…
By the time she had finished with him, there was hammering on the door of the cell. The guards must have finished their fight with the prisoners and so quickly too. She’d barely had time to reduce the other to pulp so fine he’d not be able to recover from it. At least, she was fairly sure that she wouldn’t redover from being splattered that thinly and so with any luck neither would he. But she couldn’t be caught in the cell now, she had to leave and the opportunity was granted to her due to the larger window that this inmate had once had. It was bigger but barred. The bars wouldn’t be an issue and the Majin was able to bend her limb through the gap to force the window open. The majin drifting through the air easily and landing behind another building not far from the prison. She was in a part of the city she didn’t really recognise, but it looked kind of crappy. No wonder they kept a prison here, you wouldn’t want the nice folk to have to look at the ugly building and it’s evil inhabitants any more than was absolutely nessecary after all. But what now, she’d probably be wanted by the police people for what she’d just done. Even she had to admit that wasn’t a good thing she had done. But it was the right thing to do, alas it’d make her quest all the more difficult. But she was presistant, and started to walk off through the alleys and crappy rubbish strewn paths between buildings. Looking for somewhere to sleep off the dark and begin anew with the rising of the sun.
