Caring for people is stupid
Who| Pruna and Sandy
What| Breakout!
Where| Jail and then around the city as they run
When| During jail breaks
Warnings/Notes| We have tiny child murderer, other tiny child having been tortured, description of branding, and likely frank conversations about death. I will add if anything else happens
She was going to kill them all. Every peacekeeper and every Capitolite in this city. This Pruna vowed as she approached the jail. She had found the darkest, loosest clothes in her wardrobe and her feet were once again bare. She was not going to mess this up because of stupid shoes.
Killing would come later, getting Sandy out of the jail was the mission tonight. It felt strange to be doing a mission of her own violition. No orders, no briefing. Just her own plan. She had to hope it was a good one.
She had thought about getting help, and then decided against it. She didn't want anyone elses stupidity to make her fail. However now she was close she thought someone like Shepard might have been useful, or Initiate.
Still she had made her choice, it was just her and the darkness and all the knives she had managed to steal from the kitchen and training rooms.
The plan was pretty simple, break into the jail, kill anyone in the way as quietly as possible, grab Sandy and get out.
The jail was difficult to navigate, since she had seen no plans, no maps before hand. A guard was pickpocketed and left to his own devices. Pruna scowled at the lack of keys but wrinkled her nose at the cards, but the tribute towers had keys that were cards so she grinned.
Her biggest problem was that she didn't know where Sandy was, Pruna had done jailbreaks before and more often slipping in weapons or poisons to prisoners who her guardians needed not to speak. But this jail was like nothing she had ever seen.
Someone had to know where all the prisoners were, there had to be some organisation. So Pruna kept moving, keeping out of sight, on edge because she was trained to avoid human eyes, not stupid technology.
When she saw the centre and the computer she frowned. She hated not knowing all the facts and computers were hard. She could use her communicator but outside of that...
She sneaked forwards and tried pressing a button, nothing happened. She stared at it in frustration, and looked around for anything to help. No papers, no lists, no floor plans. Not even a locked box or cupboard.
She stared at the computer again and noticed the thin slot. Well she had never heard of a key for a computer but at this point anything was worth a try. She grinned triumphantly. It took longer than she would have liked but she finally had a cell number. She pulled the card out and hurried on her way.
It took her a while to find the cell, once she worked out the pattern of where they were. She put the keycard into the slot and frowned when nothing happened. She took it out and put in another- they looked identical to her but what did she know about stupid technologies.
She saw her, curled up there and her eyes narrowed at the bandages on her face.
"Sandy." She hissed, she could only hope that the other girl could hear her, and was sensible enough to stay quiet.

timeskip to morning?
Still she didn't like it, she didn't like how she didn't know what to do and how no matter what she did Sandy would always be hurt and always be scared and Pruna couldn't help her.
And she hated the fact she wanted to help her. Who was Sandy that Pruna felt like this. She had killed her sister because she had been told to, but here she was barely days after, having broke every rule to bring this girl to safety.
It was stupid and it made no sense and she didn't get how she could be both those people at the same time.
Time ticked on and Pruna was lost in her thoughts though it did not stop her alertness and worrying at every noise.
Soon though the first light of morning began to make it's way through into the basement.
Re: timeskip to morning?
Well...mostly.
Turning her head slowly to look at Pruna she tried to remember if she'd had any dreams, but thankfully nothing stood out.
Her first exhaustion fueled nightmare free sleep in who knows how long.

"We do be needing to be moving on." She told her once she realised that Sandy had woken up. "Do you be knowing anywhere safe we can be going?"
Staying in one place was not a good idea.
no subject
"I...yeah I know some blind spots around the city but...we gotta get out somehow. Maybe run to District 13...I don't know where it is though." She mumbled struggling to shake the fog from her mind so fast. She had been running on adrenaline so long her body was protesting being awake.
no subject
"We do be needing to be avoiding the technologies." She reached out to pull her friend to her feet. If she were at home she would use the roofs, but the roofs here were so high she didn't think they could climb the buildings.
no subject
"What did they do to me." She whined softly trying to focus and finding the fog on her brain wasn't lifting. Was it fatigue or something more sinister?
no subject
At least she hoped it was that, she could steal some food and deal with that. If they had done something to her brain...
She held out a hand, "Be coming on, we will be getting out of here."
no subject
"Before we go out there...I don't think I thanked you. You're the best friend I've ever had." Her grip was tight as she let Pruna lead her to the exit.
"I'm really glad we met." she added shyly, cheeks burning as she rubbed her head with the other hand avoiding her burn.
no subject
She thought about the Initiate's words, about balance and how even though other people could drag you down they could also make you stronger.
She stared at her and squeezed her hand back. "I do be being glad as well."
With that she pulled her outwards, into the wide world, though her eyes darted around seeking shadows to hide in.
