2.Raid

Deep underground in lay a prison with humans sitting shoulder to shoulder. It smelled of urine and feces , mold was growing on the walls. It was utterly unsuitable for humans to live. All the slaves were on a sleeping cycle so the ones not working would be packed like sardines inside this tiny, cold damp, and filthy prison. In a tiny corner of a prison the a young man suffering from a slash to the back was lying still with a horribly stitched wound. As he started to gain consciousness he took in his surroundings , men , women, children, and the elderly it didn't matter they were all treated the same in the eyes of the Celestial dragons. He sighed than tried to sit "Bleh" he coughed up a mouth full of blood as he was assaulted with an immense amount of pain coursing through his back. This boy was of course Lucian.

As he was finally able to muster up enough strength he eyed a fish man sitting no to far away with stitching tools next to him . The fish man seemed to resemble a shrimp with a human like upper body with shrimp like feet and hands . "You okay kid ? I'm no doctor but I did the best I could." Lucian starred at the man for a second before nodding his head . Sensing no ill will from the man Lucian finally spoke " i appreciate your efforts I thought I was goner after that arrogant bastard snuck me from behind." The man shook his head at such cruelty to a mere child. He stood up and looked at the prisoner and cell then said " don't worry if all goes right this will be over soon." The man started making his way through the crowd of people leaving a young Lucian stupefied. "What did he mean it would be over soon. What was he even talking about . Lying back down Lucian did as he always did think of ways to escape his situation he knew he was only one bad fight away from actually dying and he was running out of luck.

Sitting not to far away from Lucian was Atlas seated alone to nervous to sleep afraid of being attacked he gazed around before noticing a black haired youth around his age staring off into space . The last time he peered over at the youthe he was getting sowed up by the old shrimp fish man . He contemplated approaching the young man but he couldn't really justify a reason to honestly he just wanted someone his age to talk to . Most kids were already broken and it was never much talking with them. After about thirty minutes of going back and forth in his head he stood to his feet and started making his way to the young man on the approach he noticed another young man approach the injured youth and once in ear reach he heard the new youth ask . " You don't seem like a person who's lost his fight yet "

Close the front of the cell the Shrimp fishman was getting closer and closer to the door. " Damn it patching up the kid put the plan behind schedule I guess I'm doing this the loud way hopefully the ones outside get the signal". As his hands started to heat up and glow bright as the sun the people in the cell began to run fearing the reason for the light . Than in a flash the man reached the gate and smashed hard into the door. Crackle the door folded like tofu and in a second a hot shockwave was released from his hands evaporating the doorway the guards in the hallway and blowing a gigantic hole in the side the red line. Alarms started going off as multiple explosions boomed across merjois . As guards started flooding into the prison three people jumped through the opening. " Let's free our brothers"
