[Flashback] The universe does not sing; it hisses

[Raminah Naya]

Raminah looked back at the girls locked in with her. They were scared. She was scared too. But they had a chance to escape. There would be no second chance. They had to use this one.

«Listen to me» she said. «After the doors open, we will leave here. No panic. No screaming. We have time. There are few guards here. There are many of us, we can handle it. If we don’t panic, no one will be able to stop us».

Raminah hoped that the girls understood her. The huge guy in the next cell was discussing something with the other guys who were next to him. Raminah did not hear their conversation. She was getting ready to lead the girls out.

When the cells opened, the huge guy led the strongest guys to rob the armory. Raminah wanted to know who he was and why he knew this prison so well, but there was no time for conversation.

She tried to find the red-haired naga and bring the frightened but obedient girls to him. Raminah saw which way he went and was soon at the control room doors. The alarm were annoying. Raminah wanted to get out of here as quickly as possible.

Raminah looked into the control room and saw the naga and the unconscious guard.
«I don't know who you are, but thank you», she smiled at her savior. «I brought the girls. Most of them don't know how to fight. I know, but I'm not a very good shooter. I prefer cold weapons. The guys went to rob the armory, it will get hot here soon».

Soon, screams and shots were heard from the corridor. Reinforcements arrived, but the guys had already seized the weapons and the fight began.
