Grey Tombs
Mina sat in a corner of her cell. She gave up on crying for help years ago. It's a wonder she's even still alive. She shivered in the cold.

Mina jumped. She heard something and waited for it to be her fears. A little mouse scurried into her cell. She sighed a breath of relief.

Two guards dragged in the newest prisoner. They were talking among themselves, ignoring the prisoner jerking, kicking and shouting. They were used to this.
Lexi's heart was pounding as she tried to get away from the guards holding her. She muttered something under her breath, trying to use a spell on them.
Mina sank farther into the corner for fear of them hurting her while they were there. Mina soon realized what Lexi was trying to do. She prayed that it would work…
Jenna managed to pull herself to the iron bars that kept her in, that kept her imprisoned, grasping them with her pudgy fingers."Please. L-Let her go."Her tiny,frightened voice rang out.
She tried muttering another spell when it seemed like the first didn't work. She had to get away before they put her in a cell, she had to...

One of the guards kicked the side of Jenna's cell to shut her up.
The other opened up a cell around the corner and tossed Lexi inside, after they had strapped silver cuffs around her wrists, which would keep her magic down until they were off.
They slammed the door closed, and walked off without a second glance to anyone.

((silver cuffs...reminds me of the seven relms novels...))Lexi's heart was pounding faster. No. This couldn;t be happening...

Lexi stood up, going closer to the bars of her cell. She didn;t like to admit it, but she was terrified of what was going to happen to her now.
Chelsey, another guard walked in and a smirk grew on her face. "Never thought we'd catch you, huh?" she said to Lexi. "Thats what idiot 1 and 2thought." Chelsey nodded towards Mina and Jenna.
Mina forgot what idiot actaully meant. She knew it wasnt good but the years of quiet brought her to forget her vocabulary, which lessened the mental blow.
((YAY!! But gtg to bed in a minute))Lexi's eyes narrowed and she tried to use another spell, but the silver cuffs in her wrists prevented it. She glared at the guard.
Jenna shrunk back, away from the iron bars. She stuck her tongue out at the guard. "Go suck a lemon." She spat, the way all children do.
Chelsey faked a laugh. "Yeah, I'll do that while you don't eat for a week." she snarled. Mina tried to make herself unnoticeable."Darling, forget it. You're going to die here and your 'powers' won't save you. Right Mins?" Chelsey asked Mina. When Mina didn't respond, Chelsey picked up a few rocks and chucked them at her. "Idiotic and unspoken. No wonder we caught you so easy," she said.
Jenna bared her teeth, hissing like a cat, except her two front teeth were missing. "Leave her alone! I'm not afraid of you." She crossed her arms. Unlike the others, she didn't wear the silver cuffs. She didn't have powers. Well, she didn't know what they were neither did the seekers. She was a 'rare' species. The last one, last of her kind, and she was powerful but not yet a threat.
Lexi looked over at Jenna, wincing slightly when she saw how young she was. She shouldn;t be here...
Jenna glared daggers at the guard. Then her expression changed. She smiled sweetly at the guard, flashing her teeth. She blinked, her startling grey eyes staring innocently at the guard. She turned, her worn dress unnaturally baggy - for this wasn't the first time she was underfed- and went and sat in her corner instantly covered in darkness.Only her bright eyes were visible, and they were smiling. "You should really leave now. If I won't be eating again, you should return to sucking the lemon that gave you that scowl." She giggled.
Lexi couldn't help but to smirk at what the girl had said. She then returned to glaring at the guard, trying to think of someway to escape, even though she knew it was useless.
((yeah))Chelsey scowled. "I love lemons," she snarled at Jenna. "Minna, don't forget, I'm whipping you tomorrow, and you miss newbie, I'll do the same to you as well. I'll prove your magic is worthless here." with that, she left, her boots clicking on the floor.
Mina's red hair was matted down with dirt. She trembled with fear.
Jenna walked over to the bars, cautiously. "Who are you?" She asked with a hint of a sneer. "A new guard?"
"Back, freak, you're kind has never done this much damage to me"Shade kept limping"I have been here a long time, for your information."
Jenna stayed. "If anyone's a freak it's you seekers." She said with an even voice. "You should be behind bars. But I'm not afraid of you twits."
Shade pulled out Nicanor's pistol and pointed it at the prisoner"You should be, I don't know how they keep you alive. If I were them, I would have slayed all of you the moment you started to multiply."
Jenna didn't flinch. "Good thing we're more powerful then you, or we would be dead. Anyways, you won't - can't- shoot me, unless you wanna be in my place Mr.. I'm the last of my kind, and used for tons of experiments. Why do you think I'm not wearing cuffs? So... you should really put that away." She said to the towering figure.
Shade scoffed as he put Nicanor's gun away and sat down in front of the cell. Hopeful that another seeker would come and help him.
Stopping, Jenna stared at him too. She walked up to the bars, put her face on them. She grasped the stick she was holding. She poked him lightly in the face with it. "Stop staring at me."
Jenna crossed her arms. "I... We are not weird. You are. But we didn't lock you up and stared at you all day, now did we, Mr.Dinosaur."
"Us? Really? You sure?" Jenna snickered. "We could've lived in peace, you know. Humans and supernatural." She shrugged. "Oh well. Wait 'till you see what the rebels have in store for you."
"Oh, those? Trust me, what they're cooking up in the Atlantic makes those look like toothpicks." She flashed her teeth in a cute giggle.






It is as cold as a large cave, wet and echoey.
No beds, no bathroom, no windows. Just mushy soil, iron bars, and the sight of dying prisoners fighting to stay alive.
