OOC: Firstly, sorry my delay. Secondly, thought I'd introduce some chaos to the calm situation. This is Purgatory after all.
Josh was intrigued by this girl, her name seemed to be Tempest as her words were short and brief. She reminded him of his sister, though her communication was poor, she was kind of adorable in her own way. His instinct to watch out for women who may not be able to help themselves kicked in and he instantly took a liking to her. Even when she decided to blow in his face. It seemed that her ability was to control wind, that or it was just one of the few words she actually knew. He assumed it was the latter. The guards were starting to get more suspicious of them, all this movement in the room, seemingly private conversations. This was unsettling to them. "Hey, break it up. All of you. Now." yelled one of them, the other men spacing out to form a more complete 360 degree set of security. The guard that spoke was holding his left hand over something concealed in a pouch.
To a new comer, this may seem harmless but Josh and the more senior inmates knew that he was preparing to drop a hornet's nest. "Shit." he muttered. Really not wanting to deal with that. "Disperse immediately." the man said again. The other guards started switching their magazine from live rounds to rubber bullets. Their side arm already equipped with tranquilizer darts. This was something the inmates knew nothing about unless they studied their protocols during events like this over days or weeks so hardly anyone would have caught this fact.
Some people started moving away right away, others a little more slowly. The slow movers were either moving slow due to injury or due to lack of caring anymore, mentally broken by this hell hole. Josh stood up but didn't move away from Tempest. He assumed she wouldn't understand what they were saying so leaving her alone like this would be terrible. "That means you too Stone." another guard spoke. Josh sighed, always a center of attention. "This girl doesn't under-" The guard cut him off. "I said now!" he yelled, pulling out the hornets nest from his pouch. Most people had dispersed at this point but Josh wasn't about to let this girl who doesn't know any better be caught up in this.
The guard gave him another 5 seconds before he lost his temper completely and pulled the pin from the grenade and tossed it over the rail, saying "You asked for it." as he let it go. Josh wasted no time, he jumped with one foot on the bench seat, the next on the table top and leaped into the air. As he jumped, he did a bicycle kick to punt the grenade right back up at the guards. He played a little soccer in high school and it paid off for once. He fell on the table hard but managed to glance up and see the guards with their panicked faces as the grenade flew back up at them. It deployed the rubber pellets with tremendous force and put at least 4 of the guards on their backs. The other guards were shocked by this, having never seen something like that.
The senior guard present however wasn't distracted like the others, he zeroed in on Josh with his pistol and pulled the trigger. A trank dart flew and caught Josh in shoulder as he was now sitting up. Josh looked up at the guard who shot him and before he could speak something angrily, he fell off the table and landed on the ground, fast asleep. "Everyone out of the way, take Stone to the box." said the senior man. Just then 6 guards burst from one of the doors normally locked and surrounded Josh's body, everyone stepping back against the walls. They picked him up and carried him off, the doors locking behind them.
