Quote of the Week: You do you and I'll do me and we're not gonna do each other.

Story- Part 5

They woke up sitting against a wall in a dim building, with their wrists tied behind them. Marisa could tell by the unkempt appearance of the place that it was an abandoned building. Once her eyes adjusted to the little light that came through the windows she saw that she and Rhoda were surrounded. About twenty people, all dressed in black jackets, stood along the walls of the large room they were in, looking at the two girls. A man, who appeared to be the leader, stepped forward when he saw that his captives were awake.
"So," he said as he drew nearer," Rhoda thought she was slick, didn't she? Thought we wouldn't notice when she started working with the Deviants. The man looked at Marisa as if she was something nasty he'd found under his shoe. Ingoring him, Marisa leaned slightly closer to Rhoda. "Is this the group you were working with?" Marisa asked her. "The ones who're supposed to attack us tonight?" Rhoda nodded.
"Hey!, " the man yelled. Rhoda let out a squeal of surprise he suddenly kicked the wall directly next to her head. Keeping his foot firmly planted on the wall, he leaned over them menacingly. " Next person who talks without my permission is dead." Marisa sighed, feeling more annoyed than frightened. She had fought enemies much more formidable than this before and would have no problem putting this to an end if there were no interferences. She began testing the strength of the ropes around her wrists and was about to break free when a determined look suddenly came over Rhoda's face.
Taking them all by surprise, Rhoda sprang up and head-butted the man standing over them. He stumbled backwards. The people watching along the edges of the room began drawing their weapons and moving closer, but the man held up his hand to stop them. Clutching his injured face, he drew a long knife from his back pocket and said angrily, " I don't need any help to take down one useless little girl."
