Chapter 2 - Chapter 2: Thunder, Wind, Flame and Frost

"Mhmm, where - where the hell am I?" - Ryu

"What the-" - Ryu's thoughts

Waking up in an eerie area, Ryu begins to notice his surroundings, he's inside a cell, a very uncomfortable one that is.

Dust fills up the air in the room, rats wandering around, and a man standing at the entrance, with a disturbing glare, like a guard.

"Hey where am I?" Ryu asks the guard

"..."

"Do you know where my uncle is he might help me get out of here?" - Ryu

"..."

"Dickhead" - Ryu

"Whoah there, you kiss your mother with that mouth?" - Voice

"What's it to you?" - Ryu

"You were supposed to say 'no but I kiss your mom with it'" - voice

"Name's Jin" - Jin

"..."

"This is the part where you tell me your name" - Jin

" Oh really...how rude of me to not mention my name to a stranger" - Ryu being sarcastic

"Anyway it's Ryu, sup." - Ryu

" Sup Ryu, thanks for joining us." - Jin

"This isn't really a welcoming-wait, us?" - Ryu

It seems that Ryu wasn't the only person in this prison. Two more voices call out and introduce themselves.

"Yo!!" - voices

"Hmm?" - Ryu as he looks out his cell

"Wait there's other people here?" - Ryu

"It's not like we choice to be here." - voice

"Where are my manners I forgot to introduce myself, I'm Kai." - Kai

"Hey...but I heard two voices." - Ryu

"Other guy's name is Shimo, he's an introvert so don't sweat it." - Kai

"I'm not an introvert, I'm just not in the mood." - Shimo

They all finally greet each other and start asking how did they end up here.

"How'd you guys get here?" - Ryu

" One minute I was sleeping in my room, got a paper bag on my head then poof, I'm here." - Kai

"My parents drove me here, said that this place could "fix me", don't know which part to fix though." - Shimo

"I think my uncle got mad at me for having this tattoo on my neck, maybe that's why I'm here." - Jin

"Wait wait wait, did you say tattoo?" - Ryu

" Yeah a tattoo, and I didn't get one it just appeared yesterday swear to God, it looks like a gust of wind don't ya think?" - Jin

"I got a thunderbolt shaped one on my eye." - Ryu

" Oh yeah I got one on my shoulder too, looks like a flame." - Kai

" What bout you Shimo?" - Kai

" Well I was born with mine...and it's on my back." - Shimo turns around and shows them

" A...snowflake tattoo." - Ryu

Shocked with this discovery, they realize that they were all brought here for the same reason, but why.

On the other side

"Good work men. Even when faced with temptation and years of isolation you have shown me the utmost trust that you have for this community, for that I deeply pleased." - Goto

" We live to serve you and our cause Master Goto, no need to thank us." - voices

"Humble as always I see." - Goto

" Men, prepare the rituals...tonight shall be the night the Founding Fathers Cult finally shapes this hideous world into a eutopia it was always meant to be!" - Goto

"AMEN" - voices shout

Back to the cells

" So what we have like...superpowers?" - Jin

"Elemental powers if I'm correct. Has anyone ever manifested their 'abilities' before." - Shimo

"Nope, nah, nuh uh." - Ryu, Kai and Jin at once

"So we haven't manifested yet, just awakened." - Shimo

"Seems so. Wait how do you know all this?" - Jin

"I read a lot of books, you should try it once." - Shimo

"...Hey go fuck yourself Temu Jack Frost ." - Jin

"So what's the key to...manifesting i guess." - Ryu

" I'm not sure at this point, but why would they kidnap us?" - Shimo

"..."

"They want to steal our abilities, because they know how to manifest them." - Ryu

They all gasp

" If that's the case, then we need to figure out how to get out of here." - Shimo

"Don't you wanna figure out why they want them?" - Kai

" I'd like to keep my life thank you very much." - Shimo

All of a sudden guards come barging into the room and they take all four of them to different dungeons to begin the ritual, to extract the elements.
