Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Hmm, maybe I should try speaking louder." Tony thought to himself and steps closer to the barred window. "MY NAME IS TONY SOLOM AND I WAS CAPTURED JUST LIKE YOU! ONLY I WASN'T PROTECTING A VILLIAGE, I WAS CELEBRATING MY HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION WHEN THEY GRABBED ME! YOU SEE A FEW OF MY FRIEND AND I HAve SPECIAL POWERS, AND MINE IS TO CONTROL THE EARTH AND THE WINDS! THE STORY BEHIND MY CAGE IS THAT EVER SINCE I'VE BEEN HERE THEY HAVE HAD TROUBLE KEEPING ME LOCKED UP! I'M SORT OF A WIZ - KID, SO I'VE MANAGE TO ESCAPE FROM HERE...hmm, how many times now? OH IT'S JUST TOO MANY TO COUNT. I'VE EVEN ESCAPED FROM MY MISTRESSES BEFORE. SO THEY THINK THAT IF THEY UP THEIR SECURITY ON ME THEY CAN KEEP PRISONER THIS TIME! BUT THE LONGER I'M LOCKED UP, THE LONGER I HAVE TO FIGURE OUT A NEW ESCAPE PLAN!" Tony exclaimed and one of the guards doing his checks threatens him to remain quiet.
"YOU SOUND LIKE YOU REALLY CARE FOR THOSE CHILDREN!"

"Gladly, it will save me the trouble of having to punch through this steel cage. Plus, I can't just stand by and let innocent children be hurt. Not my style. I can handle the hand to hand stuff until we can locate your weapons, I want my spear back too; it's very important to me. But I don't which guard brought you in, my vision is quite limited with only one bar window." Tony replied and then takes a second to think. "Wait, maybe I can use the winds to get a description. Let me work on that while you get me down."Tony suggested and then sat quietly on the floor of his cage. He became very still as he starts to listen to the wind as it swirls around him; flowing in from his wind with a light breeze.

"Yeah, whenever you're ready I'll breeze through." Tony replied while he remains seated; still listening to the winds. As he thought it was tough to have the winds to paint a picture of the guards description, but he figured he could use the winds to listen on the other guards conversation while they were still eating. From what he can make out, they are saying that there are guards posted throughout the market, but luckily there's a check list at each exhibit entrance to mark the slaves coming in and coming out and who was on duty to escort them in. "Alright! We're good to go!"Tony yelled as he stands in the center of his cage, ready Fortula to release him.

In a burst of wind, Tony shoots through the hole in the cage. Without hesitating he quickly flies down to the ground before the cage hit the floor and catches it with astounding strength.
"Phew, talk about a close call." Tony whispered as he gently lowers the cage to the floor. "Thanks for that. It would have been tricky pulling that off by myself."Tony scans around for guards, and then closes his eyes as he tunes himself with the winds again. "Okay, I couldn't figure out what the guard that took you looked like, but I did manage to over hear the guards in the back talking about some sort of check list that holds information of us arriving and who brought us in, and it even might have the location of our weapons."
Tony whispered as he creeps and creeps around the side of his cage to spy on the guards as they continue to eat. "They haven't notice us yet. The list is at the main entrance, if you follow me, I can lead us there."

Tony flies through the warehouse of cages, literally, he uses his abilities over wind to hover off the floor to remain quiet. He leads Fortula turn after turn until finally he halts her at a corner. He closes his eyes uses the winds to alert him of the nearby danger.
"Okay, we've made it to the front but there seems to be group of guards assembled at the front." Tony warned as he listens closer to the winds. "Crap, apparently there were hidden security cameras watching my cage for incase I managed to escape. Haha, they're learning." Tony smirked but then quickly shakes off his flattery and refocuses on the task at hand.
"There's about ten, two at the desk, three questioning them about the security footage, and the othe five are pulling a 180 degree watch around their rear. Do you want to take them, or should I have all the fun?" Tony asked with a greedy smile.

"Did Columbus find America?" Tony chuckled and then turns back to Fortula. He examines her from head to toe to get an estimate of the necessary wind it would take to get her airborne safely. He then quickly studied the distance between the floor and the rafters, and with a deep and calm breath, Tony began to summon a small soothing whirlwind around Fortula and smoothly lifted her off her feet and up to the rafters.
"Are you okay? It's been a while since I used my powers like that. I tried to be gentle." Tony called to her from below while trying to remain quiet.

Tony sees Fortula get in position and can tell that she is waiting for him to make the first strike. It's been ages since Tony has fought side by side with another comrade. Being on his own for so long he's been fighting solo to escape over and over again. He begins to imagine the main entrance from what he heard from the winds, and starts caculating the threat situation and battle ration in his head as he forms a battle strategy that will work perfectly with his new partner.

Tony remembers Fortula saying that her hand to hand combat is only as strong as the weapons she is wielding at the time, and quickly assess a tactical move that would give her the upper hand. He quickly rounds the corner, putting himself in sight of the guards who instantly spotted him. Before they had a chance to form an offensive attack of their own, Tony darts at them with a burst of wind and grabs the two guards that are still sitting at the desk by the backs of necks. He flips over them and throws them with great strength into two of the rear guards. As the three guards remaining at the front of the desk attempt to grab him, Tony shoots back with anothe burst of wind, and as he slides to a halt he rounds all the guards up in a tornado rodeo and whirls them up towards Fortula with the ravaging winds disarming them in the process.
"When will these guards get any faster?" Tony laughed as he contols the winds.
