The sound of the metal bar slammed into the brick wall echoed through the cell walls. Daphne and Nerida were harshly shoved into the cell. Both of them landed on their sides.

They laid there when they heard the keys jingle, locking the cell they were in. One by one, the ninjas left, but not without giving them suspicious disgusted looks.

Once all of the guards left the nymphs sat in silence until Daphne spoke.

"Great, just great we have three serial killers on the loose in a universe we have little to no knowledge of, and we're stuck in a cage." Daphne said as she punched a wall.

"I'm sorry I just-" Nerida sighed and slumped down, she banged the back of her head on the wall and gripped her hair.

"I'm not blaming you N, it's not your fault. It's one of Eleanor's tricks and illusions-."

"No it isn't Daph, I almost killed him!" Nerida shot up.

"I let my guard down and Eleanor was able to control my mind, and now were stuck here. We can escape, but we will be wanted all over, humans would be chasing us for money, we will have more than just a hard time to get the fuck out of this universe!" Nerida panted and then let out a large sigh.

Daphne was about to speak but she held her tounge and kept silent. Daphne walked up to Nerida and kneeled down in front of her and gently grabbed both of her hands and hugged her, Nerida hugged her back, basking in the warmth Daphne has, slowly calming her down.

"Look Neri, again it's not your fault, you didn't try and kill him or had any other intensions to do so. Plus he's alive and he will recover, but our reputation here won't." Daphne mumbled the last part, as just like Nerida said, they will be treated as attempted murderers. Basically they're going to be the most hated and feared people in the village.

Daphne shook her head and continued on, "Clearing our names isn't the important part, but getting our asses out of here is and going back to where we truly belong."

Nerida looked at Daphne and Nodded, "Yeah, you're right. Reputation here isn't the problem. We can handle a little hate."

  "Let's lay low in the cell for a little while until the time is right."

Daphne brought out a piece of paper and a quil with ink, and messaged Draven what happened and told him to come quickly as fast as he can.

  Once the ink dried,  Daphne shaped the paper into a crane then stamped a red dragon crest on it's left wing and blowed magic on the origami. The paper crane flapped it's wings and flew above her hands.

  "Go little one, take this message to Draven please."

  The little crane nodded and flew out of the cell and out the door.

The two nymphs then heard the large metal door open and footsteps coming up to them. But they didn't bat an eye thinking it was just another guard.

"Psst, Your highnesses." A familiar soft voice called out.

"Wait, is that?" Nerida looked at the cell door and saw Kanari in a jonin uniform and she went on her little tipy toes and unlocked the cell. The metal bar door creaked open and Kanari jumped onto Daphne and Nerida.

"Kanari?! What in world are you doing here?!" Nerida whispered/shouted as she looked behind her to see anyone followed her and pulled her in the shadows of the cell while Daphne quickly closed the bar door so no one suspects it has been unlocked

"I heard what happened today during the exams, so I decided to get you out of jail. I know both of you're going to tell me that this is wrong and that you could've gotten out yourselves but, I over heard some of the humans with animal masks that they were going to poison this cell, killing you both." Kanari explained.
