I can't wait to get on the road again

Who: Genjo Sanzo ([personal profile] smithandwesson), Soldier 76 ([personal profile] personalwar), Yusei Fudo ([personal profile] planetary_bonds), Giovanni Rammsteiner ([personal profile] ofobedience), & Open!
What: A pair of wanted fugitives escape Olympia captivity and attempt to integrate and blend in with Wyver society.
When: October 19th onward
Where: The Undergrowth & Wyver: The Old City
Warning(s): Nothing to note!



[Sanzo had never been one to handle forced captivity well. It wasn’t his first time of course, but the moments in which he had been stuck under Olympian Watch was perhaps the longest he had lasted before making his move (a whole ten days, wow). So it was without hesitation that he started thinking of ways to get out the moment the cities evacuation to Wyver was mentioned throughout the prison.

Escape was simple enough. He had met up with someone who had been in the exact same fucking situation he had been in, and finding an opening when the guards weren’t fixated on watching them was surprisingly simple. Getting into other caravans and finding their weapons was a bit more tedious of an endeavor but they had eventually managed to find what they needed and soon enough were able to get out and lose themselves once more amongst a countries worth of people as they were forcefully placed into a new land.

He was wearing his cloak again. Once again shrouding his appearance as much as he could as he wandered about. Between gathering food and supplies within the Undergrowth like many of the other Olympian refugees, to lurking around the less crowded markets of the Old City, Sanzo was working his hardest to gather his bearings and once again survive. He had no home now, and what little money he had gotten he had stolen from the guards before his escape. It was almost nostalgic, as if he were once again the brat he was so many years ago, with no where to go and no lead to follow. He was once again wandering aimlessly like a street vagabond, a shadow of the high priest people once thought him to be before he ended up here.

(OOC: Sanzo is once again on the run and this time trying to escape from Olympia’s manhunt for him for good. He can be found inconspicuously running from place to place but if looked at close enough one can make the distinction between him and the wanted posters that were once all around Olympia. He also currently has a temporary camp set up with Soldier 76 while they attempt to settle into Wyver. Otherwise he can be seen hunting for food, purchasing cheep goods from some of the shadier shops and panhandling for money along the streets.)

[ Do they have time to search through all the keys for the ones that fit their cuffs? Probably not. They'll have no choice but to do that when they find the weapons, since 76 is going to assume those are locked down, but that's only more reason to not waste time now.

An interrogation would probably go faster than guessing at which wagon was the one they wanted, but also riskier. ]


Let's try and find the wagon first. If it's guarded, we can always do the interrogation then.

[ As far as approach goes, 76 has no problem with the route that Sanzo suggested, so he leads them in that direction, crouch-walking once they hit the line of trees. He peers in between the trunks at the wagons that they pass, hoping that years of experience and instinct will make it obvious which one is holding the confiscated weapons. ]

[ It's a difficult call to make when the carts are all so well-guarded, and 76 doesn't know why the decision has to go to him. The longer that they sit around here and deliberate, though, the more time that they'll allow for someone to find them out. They need to act, and they need to act now.

76 closes his eyes for a moment. His hearing isn't good enough to pick out whether or not there's sounds coming from the various wagons, though. Just guessing will be too great of a risk; they need to be sure. ]


Let's ambush the one guarding the first wagon. We can ask him what's being held in all of them, and go from there.

[ He glances over to Sanzo and nods. Whenever you're ready. ]

[ For all that 76 has made a point of staying out of leadership roles, he's good at being decisive and taking point in a situation like this. It's something he falls into even without the extra encouragement, so ultimately the arrangement works out.

Or it will if this all goes off without a hitch and he doesn't have Sanzo painting him as the only one in the wrong, if they're caught.

The guard they've targeted is almost making this too easy. 76 leads them out from behind the trees to the front of the wagon, his cuffed arm held slightly behind him so that there's nothing too suspicious at first.

By the time that the guard glances up and realizes who they are, 76 is close enough to lunge forward and clamp his free hand around the man's mouth. At first the guard struggles and makes muffled noise, but 76 applies more pressure, forcing the man to lean back against the wagon's rear. ]


You're gonna tell us what's in this wagon you're guarding, and in the two behind you, and I won't break your neck. [ His tone is steely and rough, but quiet so as to not be heard by the other guards nearby. ] Got it?

[ The guard crumbles instantly. 76 knows that his intimidation tactics have been well-honed over the past few years, but he's still a little surprised that it was this easy. Too good to be true? Or maybe he just needs to accept when things actually go this way, after they haven't for so long.

He shoves the man aside, taking a few seconds to make sure that he isn't going to yell for help or make a run for it. It's the cart in front of them that they're looking for, and so he tugs Sanzo to climb inside with him.

There's a stack of crates that takes up most of the room inside; at least one of them will have to hold all of the confiscated weapons. Time to get searching. ]


My stuff isn't gonna be here. I hid it before I got captured.

[ All of it left with Ana for safe-keeping. Still, he's enough of a weapon on his own that he isn't worried. ]

Find your gear. Quick.

[ Big guy. 76 rolls his eyes at that, if only because he's got an old friend who's much, much more deserving of that title than he is. He doesn't spare too much of a thought for Reinhardt right now, but he will need to let him know that he's freed himself at some point.

Once he gets his hands on a phone again, anyway. ]


All right.

[ Breaking open some wooden boxes is nothing for him, and all it takes is a little bit of elbow grease to pry the lids off. He unstacks them to set the crates down on the little bit of floor space that the wagon has, nodding to Sanzo to start his search.

It's frustrating, the way that they're tugging each other around with the cuffs as they move in the small space, but hopefully that'll be over soon. ]

[ 76 has to bend down alongside Sanzo as he needs both hands to sort through the crates. It's an uncomfortable position, but he puts up with it, wanting this to be over and for them to be out of here as quickly as possible.

Finally, Sanzo seems to hit the jackpot. There's a whole crate full of things, so 76 can't be sure what's caught Sanzo's attention, and right now he doesn't particularly care.

When he speaks up, it's with a snarl. ]
Grab it and let's go.

[ That's definitely shouting. 76 doesn't think that Sanzo should really be taking an attitude with him right now, when his insistence on getting his gun is what might put them at risk of getting captured again.

With a growl, 76 goes on one knee and uses his free hand to help with the search, picking random items out of the crate and tossing them aside so that they can unearth the gun faster. When he sees a glint of metal, he glances over to his partner in crime. ]


Is that it?

lmk if this is okay!

[personal profile] personalwar 2018-04-03 05:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[ It only makes sense that they would take the bullets out when they confiscated the gun, but they really don't have any time left to go searching around for them. It's just as likely the ammunition had been thrown out, and 76 isn't going to let them get recaptured because of this. ]

Guess you're going to have to resort to pistol whipping people. We gotta move.

[ There's no more discussion on the matter, not when 76 stands and makes for the carriage's exit. If Sanzo resists him, all he'll do is pull harder, and he definitely has the advantage when it comes to brute strength.

Just how hard do you want the handcuffs to dig into your wrist, Sanzo? ]

[ Running into unknown territory without any kind of weapon may be reckless, but 76 would rather they take their chances in the wilderness than get locked up again. If they manage to get recaptured, he can almost bet that any security around them will be doubled, if not tripled. No thanks. ]

We'll live. Just come on.

[ Again, it's not like Sanzo has much of a choice in the matter, as 76 barrels out of the wagon and then drags them into the cover provided by a nearby bush. He lays flat on the ground, tugging Sanzo down with him. He can feel vibrations through the ground from the thundering footsteps of the approaching guards, and when they get close he holds his breath.

They just need to wait for them to move on to one of the other wagons, and that will give them the opening to run in the opposite direction. ]

[ Of course the guards plan to do a more detailed search. 76 can't imagine any of them want to deal with the consequences when their superiors find out that they let two prisoners get away, and within Wyver territory at that.

Not his problem, though.

When Sanzo whispers to him about what his plan is, 76 just nods, continuing to watch the guards in the immediate area around them. All he's waiting for is a long enough opening where no one is looking in their direction, and as soon as that comes he pushes up into a crouch and then yanks Sanzo away from the wagons.

Making a one-eighty, he pushes both of them deeper into the woods. He has no idea where they're going, but right now he just wants to put a safe distance between them and the Olympians. After that, sneaking their way into the city shouldn't be too hard. ]


We're almost in the clear. Just keep up.

[ The undergrowth and tree cover around them gets thicker with each step that they take, perfect for blending into their surroundings. ]

[ Once 76 is convinced that no one is going to find them out here, he finally comes to a stop, situating them behind a tree so that they can get their bearings. Sanzo has been nothing but surly during this escape attempt, not that 76 completely blames him when he's been dragging him around all over.

That's about to end, though. ]


First thing's first...

[ 76 grabs for the chain of the handcuffs with his free hand, pulling and exerting pressure on it until it breaks. Each of them still has a broken cuff on their wrist, but 76 can live with that for now. ]

Don't be so dramatic. We just need to find another route into the city.

[ They'll need to make a wide circle around where the wagons had been to avoid any search parties, but the jungle should work in their favor. ]

[ 76 hadn't known how difficult the metal would be to break through, so he hadn't wanted to risk it when there was a chance that someone might come across them. Better to wait until they were clear.

They can argue about the best way to get into the city, and when to do it, all they like. But the fact is that they shouldn't be teamed up for this part anyway. ]


Either way, we're probably better off splitting up at this point.
