"Hey water splasher guy could you come here a moment." He was shirtless because of course he'd be shirtless, you don't want to splash someone with water while wearing a shirt, that would just be weird. He looked at me for a moment and then did as he was told, thats the benefit of talking to slaves, they tend to follow instruction well.
"What do you want?" It didn't matter what I wanted, when he responded to my request he was already dead. Oh wait spoilers.
"My wrist hurts can you loosen it up a little bit, I'll still be retrained, but I'll not be in as much pain, you don't want me dying of an infected wrist do you?" He looked at me crossly, but complied all the same, again I love slaves, well not loves slaves... you know what you get the idea moving along!
"This doesn't seem that ti..." His words were cut off as I slipped my other hand out of the binding and got him in a choke hold. The only guard in the room came running but he was of course too late.
"Take your weapon and put it on the ground, now." I was still suspended by my feet, which made this an awkward balancing act of leaning on one guy while at the same time threatening him but I always liked to try new things (not really) and this definitely was new.
"Why would I care about one slave?" Ordinarily I'd be worried about this guys casual indifference, but thanks to paying attention I knew he was lying.
"Oh please I know how close you are, now put the gun down or I will snap his neck." I cranked the slaves neck hard and he put his hands up and lowered the weapon. "Now kick it over here to your friend." He did that as well, I was thinking my luck was going good until the slave bit my hand and I let him go, which brought me awkwardly colliding with the floor (you try losing your balance in this situation it leaves you all kinds of messed up). Thank the gods the rifle was at my feet because the slave and the guard were about to run to get other people. I do have to say it was some of my best marksmanship ever to go from colliding with the ground to shooting two people dead, but what can I say I'm amazing! I was of course still tied by my feet and let me just tell you I don't have a ton of flexibility, so untying them seemed difficult. I did have the rifle and impeccable aim so about ten shots later (being honest here!) I was free!
I would ordinarily have been a bit worried all the gunfire would have alerted someone. And I was, up until an explosion shook the palace. Than I was utterly terrified! But things worked out they normally do with me right... Except for that whole fifty year bit in prison, that didn't work out at all!
