Speaking of rapist dopplegangers...

Shalashaska walked through the doors, whistling merrily and carrying a closed cardboard box filled with probably very unpleasant things. Upon seeing Devin standing, he dropped the box in shock and stared at her in disbelief.

"Wh... B... Y-you're supposed to b-be dead!"

"Hey, not like I'm happy to see you either."

Twytch · Ocelot

He was silent, until he ferociously picked up the taser-stick and proceeded to charge at the cage with it. With his sudden burst of adrenaline, he wasn't able to stab Devin with it and missed to her left, the handle of the broken broom not too far from where she was...

"Time to finish the job, then!"

"...I couldn't have said it better myself."

She grabbed the broomstick and pulled as hard as she could.

Twytch · Ocelot

He was pulled forward, startled to the point where he nearly jumped into the fence... if only that was the case. He retained his grip on the broom handle, attempting to jab at Devin with the taser while she was attempting to pull him into the cage of death.

... Tug-Of-War just got real.

Sadly for Devin, she hadn't inherited the arm strength from her mom's tug-of-war champion ancestors, so she was forced to let go before crashing into the cage.

Time for Plan B, then.

She grabbed the electrified bars and held on as tightly as she could.

Twytch · Ocelot

Shalashaska gasped, watching as all of the lights dimmed considerably and the volts of AC current were forced through Devin's body. He scrambled back to a breaker in the back of the room, first attempting to shut off the power but then settling on shooting it to save time... and Devin's life.

All of the lights shut off, leaving what was left of Devin's senses in total darkness.

She hit the floor of the cage, her only movement being a small series of twitches.

Dammit...

And there went her other plan. She had been hoping to fry herself to death with the cage's electric charge, then have Shalashaska throw the body outside of his hideout; she still had her trusty All-Life Shroom somewhere on her person. She would've been revived in freedom and been able to escape.

But now there was no chance of that.

Twytch · Ocelot

Shalshaska tripped over something, swearing loudly as the sound of crashing objects filled the hideout. Since the cage was shoddily built and no longer electrocuted, Devin could find her way out by knocking down the makeshift door of the cage and evading Shalashaska in darkness until she found her way out...

(Oops, I thought the cage was, like, your standard iron-bar caged thing. Sorry.)

She wasn't well enough to walk yet, but one of her spasms caused her to roll over on her side and knock the door down.

"... !"

Twytch · Ocelot

((In the beginning I imagined it as a sort of fence thing, then changed my mind to one like a standard bar one but really, really old. xD))

The bars clanked loudly as they hit the floor, causing a confused gasp from Shalashaska. It wasn't clear where he was, as the sound of him shuffling around had been present the entire time.

"... You bitch." he spat, trying to walk but groaning in pain. He had apparently injured himself falling over the box.

MsDevin92 · Posted: Thu Aug 28, 2008 4:34 pm

She quickly began to half-crawl, half-drag herself to where she'd seen him enter the hideout the last couple of times, trying to keep her labored breaths silent.

Twytch · Ocelot

The sound of his feet shuffling seemed to come from everywhere at once, occasionally followed by a groan or a call of "Dammit!"

Lightning boomed outside of the hideout, illuminating the floor for a split second. She was right next to the door, and Shalashaska was at the other end of the room. He saw her in the brief flash of light, shuffling towards the direction she was in. The door was unlocked, and it seemed there was only a hallway leading to another door through it.

MsDevin92 · Posted: Thu Aug 28, 2008 4:56 pm

Devin had managed to get to her feet by this time, and she opened the door, limping down the hall for all she was worth.

Twytch · Ocelot

He wasn't too far behind her, panting as he dragged his limp leg across the ground. The sound of rain was getting louder, and she'd be outside once she opened the door at the end of the long hallway.
