"Then why don't we simply wait for them to come get us?" One of the slaves asked;
"That's because the soldiers are stronger than them, and thus, we have to create a distraction from within to split their attention and numbers; that way we would have a higher chance of success…" Dara explained;
"Alright, I am with you… But if we are going to join you on this plan of yours, then we have to free the others too?" The thick voice replied;
"I didn't plan on leaving this place functional by the time we are done…" Dara replied with a confident smile…
Then after finalizing some other details of their plan, they all waited and when it was about three minutes for the troop outside to barge into the cave;
Clang! Bang! Chang!
The sound of heavy metal hitting a sturdy metal resounded within the entire cave as two soldiers ran over and yelled;
"The slaves are attempting an escape!" Meng and Kang sprung to their feet as their Go board scattered all over the floor;
"You two stay here and kill anything that comes through this place that isn't us!"
"The rest of you come with me!"
Meng and Kang dished out orders simultaneously as six experts followed them into the depths of the cave with blinding speed whilst the remaining two waited within the tunnel…
Clang! Bang! Chang!
The sound of many metal object banging on another metal object began to vibrate throughout the cave as the soldiers picked up their pace with several flaming torches in hand, and the moment they arrived at the open area, they bolted for the last cage which was where the noise was coming from;
"Captain Kang, their chains are still on!" One of the soldiers bellowed;
"What about those two at the back!?"
Kang bellowed when he saw Dara and a burly figure facing the wall of behind the cage;
"You heard the captain… You two, turn around!" Another soldier bellowed;
"Oi! Are you both deaf!"
The soldier flew into rage when Dara and the burly figure refused to show any response whatsoever;
"Go grab the keys… Everyone, grab a baton, let's remind these two filthy animals why they're here!"
Kang bellowed as Meng and the rest of the soldiers went to grab a metal bat before lining up in front of the cage like a SWAT team trying to break into a cartel;
"Open it!" Kang bellowed from the back of the group;
Kachink!
The cage doors opened and instantly all eight soldiers swarmed into the cage but the 98 slaves within the cage clogged together and gave them a very hard time passing through, and that was when the beating began;
Kum! Bang!
Slam! Bam!
The sound of metal slamming into human flesh resounded within the cave as the soldiers tried beating their way through the crowd, but then;
Clank! Clank!
The sounds of chains falling to the ground echoed within the cage as the soldiers looked to the back of the cage only to realize that the two figures they were coming for were nowhere to be found and seemed to have mixed with the crowd as well;
"Where are they!?" Meng bellowed;
"I can't find them!"
"Their chains are broken!"
"Everyone be care-"
The soldiers flew into panic and just as one of them which was crowded by more than 20 slaves tried to warn the rest, a hand covered his mouth and just as he looked to see who it was, his eyes widened before a snapping sound rang out and he fell lifelessly to the ground…
"Po!"
"Po, where are you!?"
One of the soldiers who heard his partners statement cut off midway yelled but suddenly his leg kicked a body on the ground, and the moment he looked to the ground, his eyes widened in shock…
There, on the ground was his partner with his neck snapped in a very odd angle, and just as he was about to rage, he saw to little legs stand beside the corpse of his partner...
Then just as he traced the legs upward to find out who its owner was, he saw a Dara who was looking back at him with a sinister smile, but just as he was about to shout;
Schweein! Splurt!
Prrsssstt!
The sound of a sword cutting through the air, and liquid falling to the ground followed by the sound of spraying water rang out as everyone went quiet, except for the choking sound of the other soldier;
"Captain, they have a weapon!" Another soldier bellowed as the entire cage descended into chaos once again;
"Captain, should we fall back!?"
"Fall back??? No way… Kill them all!" Kang bellowed angrily as the soldiers brought out their sword;
Schweein!
Sheen! Shink!
The sound of sword unsheathing rang out from several positions within this massive cage before a stabbing sound followed;
Argh!
One of the slaves got stabbed in the chest as he went to the ground lifelessly, but just as he fell to the ground, the soldier looked up and saw a very big hand magnifying in his eyes, but before he could do anything, the hand grabbed him by the face and smacked the back of his head against the cage;
Bang! Crack!
The sound of bone cracking rang out as the soldier fell lifelessly to the ground, bleeding from his four orifices…
Swipe! Splurt!
Prssttt!
Another fountain of blood erupted within the cage as another soldier fell lifelessly to the ground;
"Kang, we have lost four men and the culprits seem to be hiding within these crowd of slaves, I think we should fall back, lock the gate and kill them all from outside the cage!" Meng quickly warned his partner;
"Tch!" Kang gritted his teeth in fury;
"Alright, fall back!"
He bellowed but just as they were about to leave the cage, Kang turned around and saw the First Elder grinning devilishly back at him;
"Eh?"
Kang was stunned, an Obun showing emotions is super rare, and a smiling one at that is simply unheard of, but not like his current situation was funny, as he saw the First Elder begin to close the cage as slowly as he could afford to whilst Kang and Meng tried to force their way through the horde of slave bodies;
"You-!?"
Meng almost had a heart attack seeing the First Elder tauntingly lock the cage;
'At this rate, we might not make it out of here in time!'
Kang thought to himself before bellowing;
"Slaughter a path through!"
