Cole Hunter and Artemis pull up to the warehouse that is currently housing the former bane of Artemis’s existence, Daniel “Apollo” Balent. Watching over him as combination prison guards and interrogators have been the group of Cole Hunter employees known as the Five, Ray Smyth, Rod Fielding, Robert Resnik, Craig Bush and Johnny Hull. As Cole and Artemis sit in the car, Cole slips his phone from his pocket and nods to the excited and yet nervous Artemis.
Cole Hunter: Shall I make certain arrangements are in their proper condition?
Artemis nods and Cole dials in the number before raising his phone up, putting in on speaker mode so that Artemis is able to hear everything and properly anticipate their fun to come.
Cole Hunter: Raymond... is the present serviceable?
Ray's voice comes back, seemingly annoyed at both having to give the answer and what the answer actually is.
Ray Smyth: He's breathing...
Artemis can’t help but snicker cruelly.
Artemis: Not for long...
A knowing nod and smile cross Cole’s face.
Cole Hunter: Is he properly prepared for... playtime?
Again, Ray’s voice comes back, a certain level of annoyance still quite evident in his gruff tone.
Ray Smyth: He ain't goin' nowhere.
Artemis smiles, a dark look passing over her face.
Artemis: Payback time...
Cole nods slowly, knowingly. This was going to be an interesting evening regardless of the actual activities to be engaged in.
Cole Hunter: Inside, your entertainment awaits.
Artemis steps from the car and waits for Cole at his side of the car while he gets out. They step inside and walk through the deepened darkness towards the elevator. Up a level and they come across the room of glass and Apollo strapped to a table with only a few lights on above him. Artemis smiles at the sight of him like that.
Artemis: They've done a good job on him...
Her smile grows sadistic.
Artemis: Now it’s my turn...
Cole touches her wrist, seemingly almost cautioning her to slow down.
Cole Hunter: Allow me to set the proper mood?
Artemis nods gratefully.
Artemis: Ok,
Cole nods and walks up to the door, opening it and entering the room. As he leans against the door admiring the spectacle before him, Apollo’s head rises slightly off the table, his eyes scanning everywhere but seeing only shadows and outlines.
Daniel "Apollo" Balent: Who's there? Who the fuck is there?
Cole smirks cruelly, knowing full well that Apollo won’t be able to see much of anything unless the sight is brought closer to him.
Cole Hunter: Enhance your calm, Mister Balent...
Artemis watches from just beyond the door, waiting for her cue. Apollo grimaces, straining against the table’s restraints to try and get a look at his tormentor.
Daniel "Apollo" Balent: That bitch here too? She wanna watch?
Cole smirks even more knowingly then before.
Cole Hunter: Voyeurism does not seem to… fit her.
Apollo continues to try and get loose, straining hard against the straps holding him in place.
Daniel "Apollo" Balent: Fuck does that mean?
Cole steps back towards the door, looking at the table with all their lovely toys just begging to be played with to the right.
Cole Hunter: I believe today is malleus day...
Knowing only that the phrase doesn’t sound good, Apollo tries to kick himself free without any more success than any other technique he’s already attempted.
Daniel "Apollo" Balent: Malleus day?
Cole nods as if this is a regular occurrence that everyone should be aware of.
Cole Hunter: Artemis, does Thor's Hammer agree with you?
Artemis smirks, opening the door and slowly stepping foot inside the room next to her current beau while her old one tries to look up from the table.
Artemis: It does...
Her voice is cold as she steps into the room, gone is the fear from the last time she looked upon him. that fear is replace by something far darker. She cocks her head and looks at him, a shell of his former self lying there on the table.
Artemis: Hello Apollo...
Apollo looks up, Artemis now clearly visible as she steps into the light just for him.
Daniel "Apollo" Balent: Fuck you think you gonna do, Jackie? Huh? You think you all big and bad now? Stupid fucking whore!
Cole shakes his head, disgust crossing his face.
Cole Hunter: Tsk, tsk.... language should be evaluated more carefully.
Apollo’s gaze moves from Artemis back into the direction Cole’s voice had come from.
Daniel "Apollo" Balent: The fuck does that mean?
Cole shrugs almost regretfully.
Cole Hunter: It means... we have many lessons yet ahead of us, I'm afraid...
Apollo grunts agitatedly.
Daniel "Apollo" Balent: Like what?
Cole's voice changes. Gone is the usual calm demeanor, replaced with anger, his teeth grinding from it as well.
Cole Hunter: You WILL... learn the proper respect...
Apollo looks up and sees the hammer in Artemis's hand.
Daniel "Apollo" Balent: What you gonna do with that hammer?
Cole shrugs, looking simultaneously playful and murderous.
Cole Hunter: Teach...
Artemis moves in and Apollo starts screaming, his previous bravado melting in the face of what he knows has to be coming.
Daniel "Apollo" Balent: No man... no... NOOOO!!!
Cole Hunter: Shall I make certain arrangements are in their proper condition?
Artemis nods and Cole dials in the number before raising his phone up, putting in on speaker mode so that Artemis is able to hear everything and properly anticipate their fun to come.
