User blog:Isaac Kifer/WWYD Response: Cyclops

I rub my wrists a bit and wait for them to leave. "Well now that they've gone." I mutter. I reach into my boot and pull out my thief's tools and flip through the tools until I reach the pick tool. "That's not going to help you." The Cyclops says to me. "Why's that?" I ask, I soon find out why as an electric shock surges through my body. "Son of a- that really hurt!" I yell in pain. "I was going to tell you, they infused magic energy into the ankle brace, it won't come off like that." She tells me. I insert the pick back into the lock. "Yeah? I got news for you, I don't care, I'm getting the both of us out of here." I tell her. I fiddle with the lock as the shock begins again. I grunt in pain until I eventually pull the pick out. "Why are you still trying to pick it? It's not going to work! Why don't you get that?" She asks me. I don't answer and try again. I feel the shock surging through me but I keep going until there's a loud clicking sound and the feeling goes away. The anklet comes off and I fall to my side clutching myself in pain, I'm twitching a bit but I steady my breathing as best I can. "Hey are you alright?" She asks. I nod and get up although I shiver a bit. "It's nothing I can't handle, now it's your turn." I say to her. I walk over to her and start working on hers, the shocking feeling surges throughout my body and I hold in my screams of pain and tears start falling. I stop and shake in pain on the ground, I can feel the warm wetness of my tears falling down the sides of my face. "Will you just stop? It's pointless to even try! You got yours unlocked so just go, don't waste your time on me." She tells me. "Don't ever say that." I say. "The last time I listened to that piece of advice, someone close to me died and I lived on knowing I could've saved them. I'm never letting anyone die again if I can prevent it." I say getting up. I go back to picking the locking working through the pain and tears until it comes off. "There," I say in between pants. "You see? It just needed a bit of work to come off, that's all." I tell her. "You actually did it. I never though it would come off, thank you so much!" She yells tackling me into a hug crying. "It's alright, let's just get out of here." I say. She wipes her tears and we leave the cells. The guard found out that we had gotten out and came after us.

We become surrounded by the bandits and are now back to back. "Can you fight?" I ask her. "Can you?" She asks back. "Do you think these guys would come after me if they didn't think I was a threat?" I reply. "Touch`e." She retorts. The bandits charge at us and we engage them in hand to hand combat, punches are thrown left and right as they hit their targets. Eventually, we're bloodied and bruised but victorious. "Heh, now that was one hell of a fight, and I've been in plenty. You OK Cy-chan?" I ask her. She raises her eye brow. "Cy-chan?" She asks. "Yeah, we're friends now and that's what friends do, and besides you wouldn't leave me now right?" I ask. "Yeah I guess I've grown attached to you Isaac. So now what?" She asks me. "Now, we go home to the ranch, I set you up with a sweet little spot in the cave and get you some blacksmiths tools and I get one step closer to my dream." I tell her. "Sounds good to me." She replies. I crouch down and let her get on my back. "You going to be ok carrying me? We're both pretty beat up." She asks. "It's a bit of a walk but I'll be fine. I'll take long walks over ankle cuffs any day." I tell her. She relaxes herself on my back and we get on our way leaving a pile of bandits behind us.
