Chapter #5

'Round the Clock Watch

    by: Unknown
"I'm going to keep him with me." Aria finally answers. "From what I've heard, he's managed to slip out of his cell many times because there's no specific guard watching it. If I keep him with me at all times, there's less of a chance that he'll escape."

"Sounds good. But how are you going to keep him with you?" Destiny asks.

Smiling, Aria walks over to her desk and pulls out something. Coming back, she shows it to you and Destiny. It was a choker with a cage in the middle.

"I had a friend make this in case I ever had to deal with our human inmate." Aria says.

"Excellent." Destiny replies before handing you to Aria. Immediatly, Aria puts you in the chokers cage and locks it before, to your shock, eating the key.

"Why would you eat something made of metal? And why would you eat the only key to this thing?" You ask.

"I'm an onryo. Eating non-food items doesn't bother me. And I have a spare, but I'm not telling you where it is. Not that it matters, since you're not leaving that cage. And don't think of picking the lock or breaking the bars. That lock can only be opened with the key, and those bars are made of enchanted orichalcum, one of the few unbreakable metals." Aria explains.

"You've thought of everything, haven't you?" Destiny says.

"When I was alive, I had to deal with punks like this. So I've seen all the tricks and know how to counter them." Aria replies.

"Ah. Well, good luck with him. You'll need it." Destiny says before leaving.

"Better get comfortable, Wade. You're going to be here for a long time." Aria tells you.

"Yeah right. I'll be out of here in no time." You say, confidently.

"I doubt it." Aria says.

What does Aria do now?
