The Sorrowful Rebel Victory Of The Rebel Part Two

 Time In The Air Vents

Loc shook as she crawled in the air vents. She knew that she should not leave the base. After all, this was where Wolf Raven was. Which meant that this was the best place to be in order to finally take him down. However, she knew that she could not make a move just yet. She needed to observe the guy until she knew that she had her opening. She also knew that if she acted too soon then she would never get a chance.

She realised that she was starving and spotted just how thin she had become too! She could even see her bones too! Which meant that she needed to build her body or she would be far too weak to even land a hit.

Yet she waited until it came to light that she was gone before she would start. That was when Wolf Raven walked into the room that she was in. He looked at the empty cuffs. He looked at the red blood stains and then at the flesh, clinging to the cuffs. He smiled as he let out a chuckle.

"Well, round two is on!" 

He looked up. 

"Quick, we need to get it out that, my dear, Loc has escaped again!" He shouted.

"What do you want to do?"

"Get your best to bring her back."

"Alright, I will be on it."

She, as silently as she could, moved in further in the air vents. She moved back further and further in. She listened intently to where Wolf Raven was walking. She followed his footsteps as silently as she could. She then heard that he was heading up. It took all that she could to push herself up an air vent to where he was going. Then it came to a hallway. She heard him walk down it. She followed him. She soon came to his room.

She looked down as he sat on his bed. He stroked the silver duvet. He did this slowly. She noticed his smile. It was wide and his eyes seemed aggressive as he looked at the bed. 

Suddenly she remembered what he said. She just knew that she just could not allow him to get hold of her again. She became deathly pale as she felt uncomfortable and ice cold.

He then stood and took off his shirt, exposing his muscular frame with a row of spikes going down his spine. He turned to look at himself in a mirror on a black wardrobe. He folded his shirt and dropped it in a basket. She spotted that hebwas about to pull off his trousers. At this she looked away, despite her curiosity. 

Knowing that he would be asleep for a while, she crawled back. She looked to see if there were any guards posted outside of the room. She saw that there were four. So she crawled back. She spent the time exploring the air vents. She dared not to leave despite her hunger. She did all that she could to make a map in her head. She soon was able to find room in the air vents that was of a double bed. There she fell asleep.

When she woke up next time, her mind was clear, but she could not, for the life of her, think past the painful hunger. So she crawled to where the kitchens were. She looked at the clock.

1:30 AM

Her eyes looked as she listened for any sound. She then, after hearing none, unscrewed the grid and crawled out. She raced to the nearest drawer to find a full set of cubes. She quickly collected the back row of twelve cubes. She returned to the air vents and put the grid back on. She then returned to the room and took a small bite out of one. She ate it as slowly as she could and only let herself eat one. She knew that she was doing more than just reopening her stomach, but also building her stomach. She should not fill it too much. She also knew that she would have to make each cube last as long as possible. After all, she knew that if people spotted that the cubes kept disappearing from the kitchens then it would only be a matter of time until she was discovered. This is the last thing that she wanted.

She put the cubes to one side. She started to do a set of shaky pushups and then went onto sit ups. She then did all that she could to get her muscles in shape as the day wore on. She did this until the day was over and she was drenched in sweat. Then she slept.

The following day she ate another cube. She spent the day tailing Wolf Raven. He spent some time in a computer room.

"Any sign of her?"

"Not a word of her. Wherever she is, she's hidden well."

Loc had to bite her lip to not burst out laughing.

"Well you better find her. I really would like to get her back as soon as possible."

"Right."

He left the room. She tailed him the rest of the day. At night, she noticed that there were three guards in the door. She returned to her room. There she built her body until she slept. She watched him all day and ate another cube before she slept. The following night she noticed that there were only two guards this time. She continued to watch him. The following day there was only one guard now. The next day there was none.

Then Wolf Raven stroked his bed every night with that aggressive looking in his eyes. Yet as time wore on the aggression turned to hunger. This told her all that she needed to know. However, this was followed by an idea that would give her an opportunity to finally kill him.

She spent a whole month monitoring him and counting how many guards were posted out of Wolf Raven's room. So, the following day, she would put her plan in action.
