The Life of A God

August 1st

Today is the day.
Now all I need to do is wait, just like the others.

I believe I hear something rattling outside my cell. This is it.

Success! The guard that passes through here everyday was walking along the cells tapping the bars, probably just to annoy us. I have the longest body of all of us, so I stretched through the bars and seized him with my talons, holding my paw over his mouth to muffle his screams. This is the good thing about the darkness they keep us in near 24/7, it makes it so easy to sneak up on others.

I had to hand him over to Sombra's cell. It's difficult to keep my grip, he's struggling so much. Sombra took the guard. Chrysi thought we should look away, but my eyes were glued to the sight of a black goop covering the writhing guard. It took me a second to realise I was actually staring at this. Smiling, too. Chrysi gave me a very concerned look before closing her eyes again.

When we looked up, the black had receded and the guard lay motionless in the hall. Sombra was taking a drink like nothing had happened.

"That was cool." I remarked. Chrysi elbowed me, it still stings.

It's taking Chrysi a while to transform completely, since being a changeling takes a lot of practice. Sombra and I said her transformation looks perfect, but she shook her head saying 'it wasn't good enough'. It's taking at least fifteen minutes. It doesn't seem like a long time to you, but we were a little on the edge seeing as another guard could stroll in at any second looking for his co-worker. Luckily, this didn't happen.

The coast was clear, Chrysi looked exactly like the guard, and we, two outcast being led to new cells. I grabbed the guard again and wrestled his keys out from his uniform, and unlocked each cell door with ease. We were free! Not quite safe, but still free.

We're about to leave the cell.
I'll tell you the rest later, diary. It's show time.
