The sound of agony, pain, and screams echo through the hallways, the stones that gave off their cold did not make it any better. The cold air breeze going through the iron bars coming from the outside touched the skin of Rona. She would wake up only to notice that she is chained to the wall and her surrounding would be a cold cell, in front of her a large fire was brewing and some tools were set up. Dead bodies were pinned to these cruel devices. Where did she end up this time and how?

Sabine opened her eyes at the cold, and they soon shot wide. Pulling at the chains, she tried to remember how it was that she got here. How did she get here? She scanned the area, seeing the bodies. Normally bodies didn’t bother her, but she turned away, trying to yell out, but finding her voice caught in her throat.

Some prisoners in the area were crying and praying for some kind miracle to happen but hey shut when something was hitting the bars as it slowly closes in on the cell of where Rona was at. Then a voice was heard “Itchy pitchy spider, where are you crawling to..” The voice was recognized by Rona.

Listening carefully, Sabine felt a shiver go down her spine. Her eyes looked towards the voice, and though she tried to speak, it came out as a whisper. “How the hell did I get here?”

“Does it really matter how you got back in my hands” Skinner appears in eye view of Rona and leans on the bars “I miss so glad that my toy is back. I truly am happy” Skinner said with a grin on her face. Walking towards the door “I can’t wait to continue with our play, how is the leg?” Slowly opening the door.

“None of your damned business,” Sabine stated. She did her best to stay calm this time, but in the back of her mind, she was screaming.

“Tsk tsk tsk” She motioned with her finger in a wave movement as she slowly walks to Rona and stopped right in front of her “mmm That smell, I missed it” Skinner said as she took a deep sniff from Rona neck “Now let’s play along with each other, I got all these toys for you set up” She moved to the benches behind her.

Sabine pulled her head away from Skinner when she got close. “Why the hell would I want to play with you?”

"Well..." She placed her fingers over Rona cheek and lets it slide over her face "Because playing with you last time was so much fun...I missed your screams when I cut my knife right into your leg" Skinner smiled and looked at her "If Marza did not interfere, you would have enjoyed our quality time some more, just like me" She grabs her chin and licks her cheek slowly.

Again, Sabine did her best to turn away from Skinner. “I would never enjoy my time with you. You give me no reason to enjoy it. You only enjoy causing pain, and expect the others to enjoy it.” Where was all this coming from? She wasn’t sure how she was standing up...somewhat...to Skinner. She was deathly afraid.

Backing a bit off from Rona as Skinner slides her hand over Rona left shoulder and pinch it a bit "Mmm spicy... I like that" Then pressed her thumb on Rona old knife wound "But you see, I don't want you to enjoy it...I want you to scream, beg and suffer for that misery life you have" She smiled and looked into Rona beautiful eyes "Because I dig for secrets, secrets that no one supposes to know...and you oh...you got the biggest don't you?"

“I don’t have any secrets worth your time,” she stated, wincing against the thumb to her knife wound, even if it was healed up. The pain still lingered. “I won’t give you the pleasure of my screams again, and you won’t get to my secrets.”

"Is that so, want me to call you Elise Shena or..."Skinner taps the side of her cheek as if she was thinking "Or Ensign Sabine Rona..." She smiled and looked back towards the reaction that Rona was going to give. Some more screams of help were given from other cells as Skinner eyes were only locked on Rona.

Keeping her expression as neutral as she could, Sabine eyed Skinner. “I don’t know of this Ensign you are talking about.”

"Really, oh you keep amusing me" She laughs and turns to the door walking towards it as she stops and looked back at her "Then I just will continue on Charlotte or Sarah...they seem a bit beaten up already" She points to one of the benches were Charlotte was laying with a bloodied face and her left arm severely damage.

Eyes now going wide, Sabine took a shaky breath. “No..” she whispered before looking back to Skinner. “Let her go.”

Skinner ignored her and walked towards Charlotte grabbing her knife and approaches the tired Charlotte that was barely moving. Skinner grabs her hand and looked at her nails "Would you mind if you do your nails dear?' Skinner said with a grin and seeing that Charlotte could barely respond.

Sabine fought against the chains. “Let her go!! Do whatever you want to me but leave her alone!!”

Taking a deep breath as she points her knife at Sabine and looked at her with shake head "No no dear that is not how works. You don't want to play with me, you lie against me that you are not who you say you are. Then I simply play with others" Skinner said and with that, she looked back at Charlotte and placed the knife under the first nail "You know Sabine, there is a technique to do this, just shove it in..."She shoves the knife into her finger as Charlotte began to scream out of pain "And then pop it upwards...it might get stuck..." She said as Skinner cracks it upwards.

Closing her eyes to Charlotte’s scream, Sabine struggled again against the chains. “Please, let her go! I’ll do anything.” The tears quickly started to stain her cheeks.

Looking at the nail and throws it aside as Skinner looked at Sabine direction "You hear that Charlotte, she wants to take away your fun....how rude. Even after I offered her first. Now she suddenly wants it, oh..." She points the bloodied knife at Sabine "..oh that is what you are doing now, you want to save her?!" She stabs her knife into the hand of Charlotte, who screams again "That is not really how this ...interaction works" She moved her hands back and forth from Sabine to herself.

“She didn’t do anything. I’m the one you want to have fun with, so do it! What the hell do you want from me?!”

"To suffer?" She leans back on the bench and blinks a bit "What else do you think I would possibly want? I know who you are, I know why you are here and I got all these new toys to play with" She looked at Rona and smiled a bit "But you keep a poker face up, won't stay strong for your job...fine now I just simply cut down one by one your team members. Not for information, but for enjoyment. I see it actually as an art that needs some work here there to become perfection"

Sabine looked towards Charlotte on the ground, and then back to Skinner. “I won’t let you hurt my friends, my family. I’d give up my life for them, even if they don’t realize it. I screwed up once, and she got stuck here because of it.” Her eyes were red now from the tears. “You want to know who I am? I am exactly who you said I was. And you can kill me, torture me, whatever the hell else you want to me. Just leave them alone. This is between you and me.”

Then suddenly Skinner laughed and grabbed the knife pulling it out of Charlotte's hand "Well look it here, the hero stands up bravely to save her friends!" She smiled and with a slash, the neck got hit as a blood cut appears on Charlotte's neck appears as she gags for air "It seems her date just got expired" Skinner walks towards Rona cell and cleans the knife from the blood.

Gasping, Sabine watched Charlotte. “No...” She turned to Skinner with anger in her eyes. “You had no reason to kill her! You deal with me!” She looked ready to put her hands around Skinner’s throat were they actually not chained up.

Moving right in front of her, just out of reach of her face and looked into Rona eyes "Yes, give me that fury...that pleasure" Skinner replied as she rose her knife and placed it on her shoulder "Let's continue dear spider..." With that, she shoves the knife right into the shoulder wound as the agony would go right through her body. Suddenly Rona finds herself sitting in the medical bed, covered in sweat and both her shoulder and leg itching out of pain. Where is she? What happened? Was it...was it a dream?

“What the hell,” she whispered to herself as her hand went to her shoulder. There was no new wound, but it was still searing in pain. Her eyes looked to her leg, the same as it was before. She closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths. “No, not sleeping. Damnit. I need to get Charlotte out of there...”
