A Warm Welcome

Who: Little Cato, Hellboy, and Bones
What: An unpleasant meeting between the problem prisoners
Where: A Project Prometheus base
When: Around the same time as Valentine's Event
Warnings/Notes: Imprisonment, guards being assholes, child endangerment, some other CWs will be added as needed.

Unfortunately not everyone gets a warm welcome to the Guardians' universe. Project Prometheus, a secret human organization dedicated to studying, controlling, and destroying myths, manages to ambush a few of the new myths. Their capture is quick, quiet, and almost impossible to fight due to the magical dust they use to knock them out.

And then they're stuck in a nightmare of metal and concrete walls, a sterile secret base where the Promethean agents do their sinister work. In some rooms of the base there are magical artifacts, safely locked away, studied to figure out new methods to fight myths and to destroy magic. In others, sinister experiments are done on captured myths.

These two have been lucky so far. They're being merely kept imprisoned for now, for containment and future study. Buuuut they've become a bit of a problem.

And the guards have decided the best way to deal with several problems is to cram them together and hope they're problems to each other. That way they're a little too distracted to keep up their shenanigans.

The bands around their necks, inscribed with mystical marks, block any of the powers they may have gained upon being changed into myths. They'll have dampened Hellboy's natural strength. Their hands are in shackles, magically reinforced so Hellboy can't break them. The shackles have chains that are attached to a strange floating metallic orb overhead. It moves along at a quick pace, almost too fast for walking speed. No amount of pulling can slow down its progress. It drags them along, leading them through the halls towards their inexorable end point.

Three armed guards usher them along.

"You two wanted to be problems? Then you're going to get treated like problems. So you're going to where we put one of our other problems and I promise you, you're not going to like it."

Another guard sneers. "You're both going to get a new roomie. The Beast is a real friendly little guy." He nods to another guard with bandages all over his face. "You can just ask my buddy over there."

The orb stops before a heavy prison door.

The first guards goes on, "After what it did to the Fomori and grindylows we threw in there, you'll have yourselves a bit of a handful."

The guards step back and a metal wall shoots out of the floor creating a sort of airlock for the prison they're about to enter. Hellboy and Bones will be there for a minute or two as the guards finish the digital prisoner transfer checklist.

Fun way to meet a new person, right?
