Hostwist?

Tamia's eyes widen at Caesar's words. He wanted her to kill Josie? Why? To affirm loyalty or some other inane reason? Already she could hear Josie's muffled words, meaning she'd be gagged under the mask.

Looking down, Tamia could see the rusty handcuffs binding Josie's arms behind her, preventing her from doing anything to defend herself. She glances back to Caesar who's still grinning maliciously.

"Ah, I seem to have forgotten... Here." he says, tossing a knife at her feet.

...

To be honest, Tamia was very, very tempted to simply stab Caesar with it. But she knew if she tried that she'd definitely die. She picks the knife up and scowls, "Why are you making me do this?"

"To show who you belong to, now kill the girl and we can get down to business." he simply states, gesturing her forwards to Josie.

Tamia walks over to Josie and grabs her shoulder, trying to think of a way out of this by coming up short... She honestly didn't even know if she had the family Caesar was supposedly threatening...

"Well? Go on, do not disappoint me." Caesar urges while Tamia's hand begins trembling.

Her throat goes dry as she grips the knife harder, she knew she was surrounded, there was no other way out other than this... And would Afton and the others even find out if she did this to escape?... Tamia continues to try and reason her way through this unreasonable situation, all while Caesar continues urging her to continue.

Fortunately, the cavalry seems to have arrived just in time...

*BOOM!*

A great crash occurs not far from the Fort, the ground trembles slightly due to the force of it. Immediately all the Praetorian guards are on alert, each looking to Caesar for orders.

He scowls and waves at them, "Half of you go deal with whoever is attacking, the rest stay here and defend me." he gesticulates before turning to Tamia. "Now continue!"

Tamia slowly nods, but after half the guards leave she pulls Josie forwards and whips around, leaping at Caesar, barely avoiding Powerfist jab to the face and managing to manoeuvre herself into a chokehold with the knife pressing against his neck. "Back off or the baby-faced emperor gets it!" she roars, causing a couple guards to take a step back.

Caesar struggles against her hold but she tightens the grip around his neck, causing him to wheeze slightly. A Praetorian guard moves in and tries to grab Josie from the floor however, "Stay back or I'll kill this asshole!"

"Take the girl!" Caesar loudly orders from his restrained position, and the guard does as he's told, picking Josie up and placing the barrel of his rifle against her head.

Tamia growls and pushes the tip of the knife harder against Caesar's neck to prove she wasn't playing, but is dumbfounded when the blade retracts into itself, revealing that it was just a trick knife! "What?"

"HehehehHahahahaha! You didn't really think I'd hand a traitor a knife, did you? For a test of loyalty it wasn't even needed! After all, why kill when you can enslave?" Caesar mocks, but Tamia just scowls instead.

She drops the knife and reaches for her Proton axe, igniting it and placing the energy blade against his neck. "Oh you're so smart!" sho scoffs, "Alright, how about this? I brought my own." she growls out. This time Caesar gets a cold sweat, he could feel a tingle on his skin due to how close it was to the energy blade of the traitor's strange weapon. How could his idiotic guards forget to check her for weapons!?

Tamia's about to continue threatening them but is cut off by another, louder explosion...

*BOOOOOOM!*

The power of the explosion is incredible, the wind caused by it smacking against Caesar's tent and almost uprooting it from the ground. Whatever it was, they certainly meant business!

"That should be my compatriots." she turns towards the guard holding Josie hostage, "Let her go or Caesar gets it!" she shouts for the Nth time. Still, the guard doesn't move, only infuriating Tamia further, "Alright! How about a taste then!" she exclaims as she proceeds to drag the energy blade down Caesar's arm, cutting off a large chunk of flesh while cauterizing the wound.

"AAAAAARRRRGHHH!" Caesar screams in agony as this happens, the guard scowls and fires his rifle at Josie's leg, blowing a good portion of her calf off and causing massive bleeding. She gives out a muffled scream and flails around under her restraints, showing just how painful it is.

Seeing this Tamia places the Proton axes energy blade against Caesar's crotch, ready to sever his manhood. "I'd wager Caesar is more valuable than she is, you will let her go or I'll de-dick him!"

"JUST DO AS SHE SAYS!" Caesar exclaims, sending a heavy glare down at the energy blade that was way too close for comfort to his johnson!

Josie is thrown to the floor, not that it was required due to her current state... She couldn't stand due to having most of her calf blown away. Tamia glares at them, "Release her bindings! NOW!"

The guards do as she says, pulling off her hood and handcuffs. Josie, finally able to see what was happening rapidly looks around and gapes when she spots Tamia, LITERALLY HOLDING CAESAR HOSTAGE!"

"Stop staring and wrap your leg up, you idiot! You'll bleed out before we can escape!" Tamia urges and Josie quickly nods, tearing off her shirt under her recon armour and using it to bandage her wound... It was just her luck that those fuckers shot her under her Deathclaw leather duster, otherwise she may have come out unscathed!

Once done Josie limps towards Tamia and tears off part of Caesar's thrown to use as a makeshift crutch. But not before spitting at Caesar, "Piece of shit."

A few of the Praetorian guards attempt to get closer in order to save Caesar, but Tamia just presses the Proton axe closer to his unmentionables, getting them to back away. Being the cause of your tyrant leader's emasculation would be certain death, but not before ungodly torture that would put the burning man to shame.
