Anonym & Switch, Obtaining Power to Retaliate Chapter 8

Chapter 8

Collection (4)

Changing her plans, or more so taking a slight detour, she decided to check out what's going on around the area that she was supposed  to go.

Obviously, there were guards everywhere and they were going to ambush her. She felt a little upset with the easy strategy that they are choosing to use. They will indeed, underestimate this invisible girl!

Ah...There was a trap! A strange type of cage was hidden. Anonym liked the look of it, never had seen it before, but didn't venture out further. The talent was part of tracking, but this cage seems to be of a higher grade and would be very useful! Seeing that someone here was in the profession and she needed to learn something else, she got excited!

But she didn't just stroll in because of her curiosity, she wasn't stupid! In a few of her past life's, she was in wars and fought, although she never was the strategist, she was still someone that knew that she should check her surroundings first and plan something!

Putting her small hand to her chin, she watched some people and stood there far from the place they wanted her to be. The thoughts flowing through her head weren't much. She really did want to just go in there and beat them all up, but she knew she couldn't! Yet, forming a plan wasn't really something she was great at...And, she wasn't strong at the moment, Anonym sighed to her lack of strength.

Deciding to leave before she made a fool of herself, she turned and saw more guards elsewhere that didn't seem like a shop or anything else for guarding.

Walking across the dirt road and past a stone building that seemed to be a courthouse, she looked around the corner to see people gathering and whispering.

Surely not...This isn't where they are keeping the people who were going to 'catch' her?

Squeezing in around the corner, she looked at all the men that seemed to be lining up. They had swords and some light armour, and horses were being fixed with food and water rations.

Unable to hear what was going on because she was at the back of all the soldiers, she thought that this lot of people had nothing to do with looking for her at all...

And it was true, not long after the person at the front stopped talking and spoke for them to leave, they all got on their horses and left in different directions.

Uh?

Anonym tried to put what she had just seen in perspective to her own problem and decided that what they just did must be important.

What she saw this as, was great news! Less soldiers around the better! What luck!

It was a perfect time to continue to gather belongings!

Wanting to take the best of her time, she didn't even think about leaving the former body's father there...

***

As the days went on and they still hadn't been able to find her but other things were done by her, the elders of the Hydra Clan were really upset!

How could they have known that she didn't care about her father?

Her uses being invisible were something they still wanted and needed but how were they going to get it back now?

The way they had obtained Marissa was when she was still very tiny. Even though she was only ten now, she had totally ruined their plans!

What other plan can you have for an invisible person besides having someone hostage?

As the elders tried to think of another way to trap and mind control Marissa again, they wouldn't think that she would be right there with them drinking their very own freedom elixir.

It was absolutely good luck for Anonym! If she hadn't liked alcohol that much, she wouldn't have come here at all! As she drinks under the table, she wanted to know what they were going to do as well. It would be difficult! If she were trying to get someone invisible...Can't be done without a hostage!

Actually, Anonym just didn't want to think further than that and agreed with them. It seemed like a situation that she couldn't think up a strategy for, but that was normal. In most of her past life's she rarely thought things through which got her into trouble a lot. Luckily, in a good few of those life's she had been strong and she was able to get out of her trouble by being stronger then her opponents...

Besides, she was drinking freedom elixir right now, it wasn't a time to think so seriously!

They took a few minutes to decide to beat the father more to get another idea out of him instead. Anonym stumbled along and followed them happily, not forgetting to grab another cup of freedom elixir before they left!
