Jess wakes up naked and chained to a wall in an abandoned warehouse. At first she thinks she’s alone, but also naked and chained up beside her by her ankle—her leg being the only limb she has—is @BrentMercer. All Jess can think about is how worried @Hermes must be. Her throat is too dry to make words, so she sits there in silence.

Just then, a pretty yet evil looking redhead saunters up to the two women. @Eve crouches down and grins wickedly. >

@JessicaLaren @BrentMercer @Hermes The biblical immortal is not new to the practice of trafficking humans; at some point in her long and storied life, something inside of Eve broke and was never fixed.

“A metal miss and an alien shapeshifter. You two will fetch a pretty penny.” >

@Eve @JessicaLaren @Hermes Brent had been torn from her whole-bodied afterlife in Purgatory by Eve—under the nose of Eleyah Beral Fasani—to be sold to the highest bidder for her ‘services’.

Physically unable to fight back, Brent spits on Eve, her saliva landing on the ginger’s cheek.

“Fuck all the way off, you bitch!” [x]

@BrentMercer @Eve @JessicaLaren Hermes has, indeed, been worried sick regarding Jess' whereabouts. Pacing around in @Athena's room, the speedster feels as helpless as her friend with benefits.

"Ἀθηνᾶ, can you not do something?! I need to know where Jess is!" >

@Hermes @BrentMercer @Eve @JessicaLaren "I'm the goddess of knowledge, not of reading minds!" Hermes' anxiety is mirroring Athena's. >

@Athena @Hermes @BrentMercer @Eve @JessicaLaren Heracles walks into the room, having heard the argument from the outside.

"I'll find her." [x]

@Heracles @Athena @Hermes @BrentMercer @Eve Meanwhile, back at the warehouse, Jess and Brent have been given food and water, and were dressed up in elegant gowns and heels. The latter woman was given a wheelchair and was allowed to make a call to her wife.

Jess was given the task of making sure her cohort didn’t piss off Eve again, lest she end up minus the same limbs that Brent is missing. >

@JessicaLaren @Heracles @Athena @Hermes @Eve In life, after her ‘accident’, Brent stopped wearing a shoe; her heel is hurting her foot and she has to pee. >
@BrentMercer @JessicaLaren @Heracles @Athena @Hermes Eve corrals her new wares into the back of a van and drives them to another unknown location. The idea is not to keep them in any one place for too long. Keep the ball moving. [x]
