Michiru woke up with her entire body aching. She almost felt worse than she had when she'd arrived on the Planet, and that was after dying. Her head was pounding and her mouth was painfully dry. And it was dark. As consciousness slowly returned to her, she realized she couldn't move right. She shifted and struggled a bit before realizing that someone had tied her up. Realizing that made the memories of the previous evening flood back in a rush. No. This could not be happening. She was a Sailor senshi, a warrior, not some victim to be trussed up and thrown in a dark room for who knows what purpose. Why oh, why had she not thought to bring her communicator at least? Then she'd have an angry Haruka here in less time it took to think. But no, she'd let this damn Planet's peaceful atmosphere get her guard down and now she was paying the price.

She was about to snarl out a curse or two when she heard someone else moving. "Hello?" she asked, trying hard to keep the bitterness out of her voice. If there were other victims, she shouldn't be mad at them. "Is there someone else here?" There was a very thin line of light coming from around the probably locked door, but it wasn't enough to see anything except a couple of dark shapes that might or might not be other people.

Snape still wasn't over not having his wand, but he closed his eyes, grit his teeth, and tried to think of another way to get past the door. He was interested in Michiru's comment about her own wand. He had never heard of 'henshin', but he didn't know much about Japanese magic. He also didn't know much about lockpicking.

"I wonder where our captor is. Now that we're all awake, you would think she would want to make a statement to us. Oh, well, aside from ourselves, is there anything else in here that we can use to force the door, or perhaps smash the handle? If nothing else, banging may attract the attention of others."

In particular, Snape thought of his Slayer, Faith. Surely she would have noticed by now the absence of her Watcher. They had been training nearly every day. He imagined her strength would be enough to damage this door.

"I suppose picking locks with a hairpin is one of those urban myths?" Michiru said with a sigh. She doubted this lock would be that simple. She looked at the door again and pressed her ear to it.

"I think there's someone outside" she said, backing away slightly before banging on the door twice. Even if it was their captor, if she opened the door to come in and gloat, maybe they could rush out and escape. She sighed again and backed away from the door. She knew she shouldn't be letting herself get so depressed. After all, she'd been in far worse situations and come out okay. She looked at her fellow captives, suddenly feeling very young. She was used to being one of the older, more mature ones in these kind of situations. Technically Usagi and her friends were only months younger than her and Haruka, but they always felt much younger. But here, trapped in this small, dark room with two full adults, Michiru was all too aware of how young she felt.

Ianto shrugged. "Never tried it myself but it probably wouldn't hurt to try."

He stood back aways, giving Michiru some room. When she said she thought someone was on the other side of the door, he moved quickly to stand at the side of the door, almost pressing himself up against the wall as training kicked in. It almost eerily reminded him of being inside that underground cell with Tosh when they'd been kidnapped by cannibals... Hopefully there weren't any dead and/or chopped up bodies in this place. One of the rules was no killing, thank god.

Snape sneered as the other two fumbled with the idea of picking the room's lock. He would let them realize, as he did, that they did not have their usual resources and that all of them were embarrassingly helpless.

When Michiru heard something outside, however, he focused on the real situation and forgot his disdain. He didn't hear anything at first, but that quickly changed when he heard the sound of a window smashing in the adjacent room, and a familiar voice calling his name.
