Mission: Mission 1: The Return to Faltan
Location: Atuginia - Prison
Timeline: MD07 - 1830

The prison of Atuginia that was under the control of the Red Guards was dark, dirty and rat-a-like creatures were rushing over the cold stone floor. Inmates that were convicted were quiet, scared and withdrawn from any social contact. But what was clearly to hear, were screams and begging for mercy. When going deeper into the prison a woman twist around her knife on her hand as Rona gets pushed into the room where she could clearly see a man on a wooden plate with his head hanging down. Blood was dripping off his face as his upper body was stripped of clothes "Miss Käser, we are here to bring in the prisoner for tomorrow's execution" She did not turn as she waved her hand to the side towards an empty cell. Rona was now pushed into that cell and locked up.

Landing with a thump in the cell, Sabine stood herself up carefully, walking to the door, eying the man who was bleeding. She kept her face calm, knowing who it was that was standing in front of her. She didn’t say a word, but watched what was happening, trying to gauge things.

The man was still breathing as Skinner narrows her eyes as she used her left finger with gloves on to push the man's chin up. Now it was clearly seen what the man had to endure, his skin was peeled off partly from his face as if it was nothing, His eyes were closed as blood was dropping down from them "Humanoids are strange beings, they can hold out quite long when something is very dear to them" Skinner spoke looking at the man that could barely get a word out.

Closing her eyes only for a moment, as she’d seen worse, Sabine reopened them, wishing she had her red-gold eyes at that moment. “We might surprise you,” she said calmly.

Pulling back her hand as the man's head goes back down while she kicks the side of the board turning it sideways out of view of Rona "That is a typical question of someone that is hiding something" Skinner replied as she started to use the knife out of view of Rona on the man again. The man screamed out of agony and Rona could see his hands trying to pull away as Skinner stepped backward and smiled as a few blood drops were on her face.

Not breaking her look, Sabine sighed. “Seems you are having a bit of fun with that man,” she said plainly.

Using her knife a few more times as if she was painting something her cold eyes looked at Rona "What does it matter to you? You don't know this person, his history, his name, his children or crime that he was placed in here. Yet you are still interested in the activities he is doing with me?" Looking back at the man gasps for air while Skinner simply put some strength in her knife.

“Naturally curious person. Besides, if they told the truth and I won’t survive after tomorrow, need to be curious while I can be, right?” Real smooth there, Sabine.... She leaned against the door, “He must have done something to deserve being tortured in that way though. I don’t pretend to know what he did. I am new around here as it is.”

Skinner hums a bit as she continues to cut with her knife as the man screamed out of pain when she pulled a large skin of his body and looked at it in the light of the fire behind her "No, he has not done anything to severe to be here. But hey I was bored" She drops it and looked at Rona "You want to play next?" She smiled with an evil grin.

“Little me? I wouldn’t be any fun. I came to sell goods. I spoke up when I shouldn’t have without knowing the rules, and apparently that’ll get me killed tomorrow.”

Walking to her cell as she lets the knife slide pass the man's neck hearing him gag in his own blood as she points the blooded knife at Rona "Well that is interesting, you are not scared, you are calm and trying to withhold those lovely emotions" Skinner smiled at her as the knife ticks on the iron bars "You make yourself quite interesting...got something to hide?"

Sabine acted startled when the knife slid across the man’s throat, though she had known it was coming. She had to put on a bit of a show, right? She let her eyes meet Skinner’s, swallowing hard. “No...I just...no.” She knew how to act, but she wanted to act tough. “I’ve practiced keeping myself calm for when dealing with frustrating customers. I’m trying to do that now,” she stated as she watched the knife.

"Well well ...what do we have here" She suddenly came close towards the iron bars and looked with her cold eyes at Rona "Yes...oh-oh yes YES" She laughs and leans backward "Ahh an actor, I missed those....." She looked at Rona and grins "You are one of kind, one that actually is only found in rare gems like hmmm" She taps the knife against the iron bar '...Investigations, nah..those are lame..." She widens her eyes "Yes, Intelligence right? I ...I am right right?!" Like a child trying to get her toy to play with her.

“Intelli...what?” Sabine gasped, allowing tears to fill her eyes. Of course she was an actor, but she couldn’t let Skinner know that. “I travel and sell goods to make money to live!” She backed away from the bars. “I have a soft spot for children, and that’s the only reason I spoke up when I heard one was going to be killed!” Finding herself hitting the wall on the other side of the cell, she slid down onto the floor and pulled her legs up to her chest. “What did I do,” she said softly, rocking as she sat. The one time the rest of the team couldn’t see her, she was putting on quite the act.

Letting the act go on, Skinner followed with her eyes the woman that backed off to the wall. She slides her knife to the iron bar one by one as she stops at the door and opens it up. Leaning against the door "Stand up, strip down of those useless clothing. Keep the panties on" Skinner said with a grin and looked at Rona with great pleasure.

Damnit, she thought to herself as she stood up slowly. Sabine left her hair in the braid it was in and pulled her shirt slowly over her head. As tempted as she was to try to get another message out, she avoided tapping her ear. Acting ashamed of being exposed in such a way with her shirt off and bra still on, she also slipped out of her shoes and pants. She kept herself back against the wall.

Looking down and back up to Rona face "Not bad, you are definitely not from around here" Skinner replied with a giggle as she moves forward to her and placed her other free hand next to her face. Now very close to each as her eyes looked deep into hers "Mmm interesting" She stated as Skinner eyes looked at her neck placing her knife at Rona neckand sliding it softly over her skin down, Rona would most likely feel it scratching her skin.

The knife sent a shiver down Sabine’s spine. She was not liking being this close to Skinner, the one person she’d been told to avoid. But now she was stuck, with a knife sliding down her skin. There was no way she’d be able to put up any kind of defense and not give herself away. Instead, she’d still play innocent. “Please...”

"Please?" The knife stopped at her bra as her eyes looked at that of Rona "What please? You are hiding things....like..." She leans forward to her ear and whispers "Your beautiful eyes, so bright as gold. Trademarks of the Bajoran people and yet you cover them"

Was there a point in the cover anymore? To say Skinner was good was an understatement. Her eyes turned to face the woman with the knife. “What? You like golden eyes? Because I can make them golden again.” Sure, she’d play along, but still wouldn’t give that she was, in fact, Intelligence. But she could play the part of not being from around here. Maybe it would buy her some time.

Twisting her knife around the bra as Skinner pulled back and licks her cheek "Mmm salty... but your mood swings don't impress me. I need kicker" She looked with her cold and calm eyes at Rona as she suddenly put her knife into her left shoulder and pins it right through her until it hits the wall "Oh give me that pleasure of your screams and maybe you might reach tomorrow" She grins.

As much as she didn’t want to scream, there was no way to hold it back. As the knife went through her shoulder, she would have doubled-over were she not pinned by the knife. An ear piercing scream escaped from her lips as this time, proper tears streamed down her cheeks.

Without mercy, Skinner pulls out her knife and lets the blood of Rona hit the floor with a swipe "Now that's pure emotion!" As she seemed pleased with the results she walked towards the door and looked at Rona "I don't think they need those pretty nails in the morning, right?" Skinner points her knife at Rona hand that was holding onto her wound "I gladly remove them for you, one ..by one" She slowly said with a laugh after it.

Barely able to stay on her feet, Sabine eyed Skinner while keeping the pressure on her wound. She tried to regulate her breathing, but it wasn’t working well. When the statement about her nails came up, she didn’t let her view change. “You..you take to much away...they won’t have anything...tomorrow..”

Placing the knife on her lips and taps onto it "Good point, but then again they don't mind actually" Skinner replied "I mean, a broken toy that is just more broken than before, well no one cares dear" Leaning against the door as she wanted to say something a guard enters the area and almost wanted to puke by the smell "What!" She stated annoyed still looking at Rona.

"Ma'am, Commandant Sesl received a guest that demanded the lady there to be freed" He blinks seeing Rona bare skin "It was the same lady of the nightclub"

With that mention skin slams the bars "Don't mention that night, Grey Mist escaped me...that bitch was supposed to be my toy right here!" Skinner was now furious as she looked at the guard that backed off a bit "What does that sleaze want with this one?!" Skinner points her knife at Rona and shrugs a bit.

"She stated that the woman is a worker of Crystal Fruits. They are discussing the terms right now ma'am. Commandant Sesl stated not to touch her any further ...if I observed that she is alive, that she is"

A deep release of breath was released as a sign of disappointed as Skinner looked at Rona and suddenly smiled "You did not see her in my end result just yet guardsman. Turn around and will finish my work" Looking at the guardsman "I promise she will be alive, though...walking might be difficult for her" She mutters a bit on the end of her sentence.

Glad for the distraction, Sabine took the split second to tap her ear with her free hand when Skinner was looking at the guard, whispering “Skinner has me,” though she wasn’t even sure the message got out. But as she listened, she realized that there was someone else from the team here. Who the hell did they send, she thought to herself. Adjusting her stance slightly, she started to feel light headed from the blood loss.

As Skinner’s eyes turned back to her, she knew that this wasn’t going to be good. There was nowhere to go, and with needing to keep the pressure on her left shoulder, she couldn’t take her hand off with her right hand for very long.

The guardsman shrugs and simply obeyed Skinner order and turned around he could hear Skinner laugh as the metal of the knife hits the bars and Rona started to scream out of agony. The inmates looked scared and some even crawl to the bars of their cell to look in the direction of the screams. It was pure horrifying and there was no one that could stop the pleasures of Skinners.
