1rst illusion || Rokudo Mukuro || [video/in person]

[There's the sound of something heavy and wet landing on the floor with a loud 'shlop' sound. It's dark at first, but then there's some shifting and the blackberry falls onto the floor, the camera picking up a wet figure on the ground. The figure is bound up in chains, stuck with wires and tubes and other fastenings. There's a tube over his right eye and his left eye is taped shut. The bottom of his face is covered by a mask with various tubes sticking out of it. Possibly for breathing and feeding underwater? His wrists, ankles, and neck are bound in manacles. Clearly someone didn't want this person to get out, however it's unclear whether he's a prisoner or perhaps an experiment. He appears to look like a regular young boy in every other respect...

The figure on the ground spazzes and jerks in a brief without any warning. It's unclear as to if he's awake or his body is simply in shock from the obvious sudden change in environment. The body goes still immediately afterward. Then, a muffled noise emits from the figure. His chest rises and falls in sudden jerky movements... that can either be attributed to laughter or crying...

Regardless, it doesn't appear as though he will be able to free himself on his own... and conveniently enough room 10 now adorned with a shiny new nameplate is opened a crack...]

[The boy is unable to respond properly, or even see the newcomer. His right eye covered with a tube, and his left taped shut. The mask prevents him from responding in anything but a muffled grunt, and even that was a challenge. Pulling air from the disconnected tubes was proving difficult, as he was used to them feeding air to him mechanically. More concerned with keeping his breath steady, the boy tries to convey his status with the only part of his body he could openly move: his hands. Unfortunately a light twitching of his fingers was all he could give in that regard.

He was overall confused about the whole situation, clearly he was no longer in Vendicare... the last thing he remembered was the fight with the Arcobalano baby... then falling asleep. Not that he was complaining of course, despite the overwhelming discomfort of being wet on the floor in chains... he could actually feel the discomfort. No longer floating numbly in the dark for who knows how long. He could feel his hear begin to race at the prospect of finally being free]

[Sensing his discomfort, Emma reaches out and touches his mask, seeking the place where its attached. She doesn't want to accidentally cause more damage to him, so she leaves it for now. Instead she touches his forehead with a gloved finger, seeking his mind.]

Can you hear me like this? What happened to you? Are you alright?

[Well that was extremely uncomfortable, his mind was his own and he did not take kindly to people trying to flit about it, whether it be other illusionists, or what ever this woman was doing. It was an insult to him but unfortunately there was nothing he could do about it. His eye was seal shut from the tube and he wasn't able to switch the paths of hell he could activate. However if he could convince this woman to undo the bindings... He may have been weakened but he had enough power to force her out of his head if need be.]

I've been locked away... for... I cannot tell how long... I haven't seen the light of day in quite some time... please... if you could undo the chains that bind me?

[He's not comfortable, this one. He doesn't take well to mental invasion. Most don't. But this one has a special anxiety about it. There's something about this one that might bear investigation later.]

Of course.

[She moves to the tangle of chains binding him and begins to yank at them.]

You'll have to instruct me on some of this.

[There's some irritability. Was it truly that hard to break some chains and manacles? It seemed rather self explanatory. However he tries to hold back much of his irritation. He didn't know just how much would be conveyed in his thoughts. It was so much easier to express fake cheerfulness vocally... but considering his personality he's not doing too bad of a job mentally....]

The manacles, break the manacles... and then, if you could...

[A small wave of excitement washes over him]

remove the tube from my right eye... and I will be able to do the rest....

[His excitement sets her on edge. Is it excitement at the prospect at being freed, or something else?]

Of course. One moment...

[She releases her psychic hold on him as she morphs into her diamond form. In her changed state, it's a simple matter to snap the chains and manacles in two. She pulls the chains off him, off his limbs and body.]

Now then...

[She tilts his face up to hers, gently in her diamond hands, and peels away the covering on his right eye.]

[His heart skips a beat when he feels the covering on his fall away, and instantly snaps it open. But what path to use first? Possession? To teach the woman a lesson for entering his mind against his will? No, first thing was first, that would be the first path of hell. The kanji numeral in his eye switches from six to one. The path of illusion. Usually he made sure he had just enough strength left to maintain Chrome's illusionary organs, but since he could no longer feel her presence, that power would be better used enhancing his weakened muscles.

With his new renewed strength, he flung a now free hand to his face and violently tore the mask off, pulling the tubes from his throat as well. It hurt, he wouldn't lie, but the satisfaction of that first gasp of free air before he went into a coughing fit was well worth it. Even through his coughing he managed to pull the remaining wires from his arms, uncaring about letting then bleed. The coughing lasted a few moments before transforming into almost maniacal laughter. He was free from Vendicare once again! He didn't know how it happened but it hardly mattered. They wouldn't be catching him again.

The boys laughter subsides and he looks up at his "savior" with his usual friendly smile. With a shaky hand he brushes the bangs from his face, he would try to get the tape from his left eye, however restoring muscle strength and restoring coordination were two different matters entirely... When he adresses the woman his voice is rather weak and hoarse from the sudden yanking out of the tubing]

I am indebted to you...

[She shifts from her diamond form back to her normal body of flesh and blood and mind.]

Oh please. Don't grovel. I helped you because you needed it. Someday I may call on you to repay the favor, but for now you owe me nothing.

[She holds out a hand to help him to his feet.]

What's your name, dear?

[Repay the favor? Well perhaps if it benefited his needs... but of course he wasn't about to say that out loud.]

Kufufufu... I understand.

[A feisty one this woman was, and such an interesting ability. It would be wise to get to know this one a bit... or at least get an understanding of her powers. Especially the ones displayed earlier...]

Rokudo Mukuro... and you?

Emma Frost.

I find your predicament concerning. What were you doing before you arrived here?

I was imprisoned in the most guarded chambers of Vendicare for...

[He sighs and brings a hand to his face thoughtfully.]

My.... how long was it? It's quite hard to guess in that condition...

[Of course he had a foothold in the outside world so he knew EXACTLY how long he was in there, but that giving that information would reveal far too much about his abilities.]

Perhaps a month... maybe two? It could be a year for all I know. Being in the dark so long can be maddening...

I can only imagine.

[This one knows things. But his thoughts are closely guarded. It would take much more work to uncover his secrets, work she doesn't want to put it now, when he's on alert.]

Well, you'll be happy to know that you've moved from one prison to essentially another. None of us can leave this house.

Oh?

[The initial wave of surprise quickly gives way into irritation. Well wasn't that just rich. Was this some sort of a game? A joke? He's given freedom only to find out he's captive once more? Did this woman have something to do with it? He has to pause for a moment to give himself time to keep his head level and calm, and to maintain his cheerful facade. His tone remains the same but his brows nit together slightly.]

If I may ask you to elaborate, before I jump to any conclusions?

You find yourself in a place called the Manor. We are - believe it or not - stuck inside a teenage girl's story. She is called the Author, and we follow the stupid stories she writes. Far from pleasant, I know, but it's what we have to deal with.

[She senses his struggle to master his emotions. There's a lot to this boy, more than meets the eye.]

A teenage girl's story? Kufufu... fufufufuahahaaha-

[The boy can't help but laugh, almost maniacally.]

That's so funny! It sounds just so utterly ridiculous! Buy you're not the type to joke are you?

[He calms down from his laughing fit, and brings a hard to his face. Even though he's still smiling his eyes have hardened into a sharp glare. He's absolutely irate. To be thrown from one prison into another... at least before he had a foothold out side... he could still work to accomplish his goals even from the depths of Vendicare prison. But if he were cut of from the outside world completely... which since he bond with Chrome had been cut was entirely possible... then his goals would have to be put on hold. He would have to plan everything out all over again including all the new variables that come out over time...]

...and there's no way to get out you say?

[She smiles coldly.]

If there was, do you think any of us would still be here? Oh, there are some who have come and gone but we don't know how it's happened. We are prisoners here.

[And he, if she is not mistaken, was one himself until very, very recently.]

Tragic, isn't it?

[Mukuro's once again seems to dissolve into minute levels. He's speaking calmly, while there are still mild undertones or irritation he's back in his usual mindset.]

Like you wouldn't believe. There's a young girl back in my world that may very well parish without my presence.... and I had much work to be done there... so very tragic indeed....
