Chapter 8 by Seezoe Seezoe

What's the move?

Attempt to escape

Niome Takan acknowledged the threat, but she decided to try her move anyways. The droid opened her door, and she stood, with all the sleight of a magician to deposit the catalyst to her ploy. When the door closed, she had jammed the locking mechanism with the cap to her canteen, using the sway of the cage to mask it as simply catching her balance. The guards didn't shoot. There was one issue however, rather than simply stop once the locking mechanism jammed, it continued trying to reach a full lock. The sound of which was masked by the whir of the serving droid's repuslors, until it exited the room. Then the silence was only broken by a dull groan of the jammed lock. Niome waited in fearful anticipation. This was not according to plan. Soon enough, a maintenance droid was called. The guards watched, and there was a dull clang as the cap hit the cage floor. They raised their weapons.

Shit hit the fan. Move.
