He was thrown at the wall and beaten until a warden came to question him. in into a solitary confinement. "Do you want to tell me why eight whole men are dead in my showers, Ghoststrike? We can do this now, or later." he asked as he pushed a red riding crop under his chin. 'Might as well tell him. It might even let you go in into a solitary confinement cell.' I told him. "And why would we want that?" he thought back at me. He must have rolled his eyes as he was smacked across the face with the crop. "I am talking to you." he said. 'No one can bother you there. Guards or inmates. We only need one more night.' I explained. Ghoststrike sighed and told the warden the situation. "How did you hear this?" the warden asked with a twisted tone of excitement. "The same way they did. The Gallery has a far reach." he replied. "I see. You can rest assured. The only way you are allowed to die is on the execution grounds at the end of the week. I'll make sure of it. We can pretend this never happened." he said. Ghoststrike was surprised. "Is it really okay to do that for me? You are a warden." he asked.
The warden did not seem to care about that fact one bit. "Since you are technically on death row, you really should not have been there in the first place. An oversight in the security we had that will not happen again, I assure you. The ones you killed were scum anyway." he waved away. He then asked "Doesn't that sound nice?" "I still have my pride as a ninja, villain and as a killer." Ghoststrike said. The warden then walked us to Cell Block E. The door sealed and the warden said "The next time you see me, you will be on the way to get your shots." We could hear his cruel laughing echo down the halls. 'This is just what we need. We can leave as soon as the early morning.' I told him. 'We still have to go back for Orion.' he let me know. I was fine with that. It just made things take a bit longer than it had to be. We would still be able to get out of the prison. Ghoststrike decided to continue with his stretches and exercising. Ghoststrike went to bed and muttered "Wake me up when you are ready. I don't want to be here any longer than I have to." I waited until he was asleep before I drained him.
After an hour going at it earnestly, I was at the point I was a bit over 10 gallons. Just like with Ash and Alex, I left some in his body as an insurance policy and the rest of the ooze split off and covered the outside of his body. It took me 7 minutes before I was able I had enough mass for my human form. I looked at him and shook him awake. He opened his eyes and got up before doing his final stretches. I walked to the door and placed my hand over where the lock was for the cell. I put my Qi in it and I could feel as well as hear it unlock. I pushed the door open and it moved for me. I smirked at the ninja. He looked impressed. "Blessed prisoners are made to take some Qi suppressants. Since you were in me, you did not get any. Only the blessed guards will be a challenge from here out." I shrugged and said "Let's go. We still have to get Orion out and then escape. One we do, we will take the spot of the 3 of Spades." He nodded wordlessly. We both ran out into the hall and I let him lead the way to Orion's cell. Ghoststrike was the only one who had been looking at the way this whole time.
