Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Thats a shame, here I thought we had trust." Edmond said before making his move. Edmond pulled both hands down sliding them perfectly out of the constraints. After which he grabbed Octavious' hand and plunged the syring into the man's own neck with sergical accuracy. He pressed down on the plunger and then pushed Otto backward so he could begin undoing the constraints on his ankles. He had planned to stay captive longer but he liked his mask exactly where it was.

Once his feet were free the Count looked at Otto. "Now why would you say that?" Edmond asked before grabbing the tray that had held all the surgical tools. He used the tray to hit the box with the tendrils towards Otto and then pointed at the plant on the girl next to him "If you want to wake up in one piece tell me how to get this off of her!" The Count ordered taking a few steps to the side in order to give himself reaction space.

"Do you realize exactly what is at stake here for you? You don't know what I will cut off. It could be toes, fingers, anything. So last chance tell me or deal with the consequences." Edmond ordered again. He didn't have a bow but he did have his knife. Octavious had never searched him for it and he would use it to cut something if Octavious didn't tell him. "then again there are two of them here so I could just put one on you and cut your hands off..." The Count was not kind when he was interrogating from a position of power. He was cruel and had tactics Batman would consider a bit too violent.

The Count turned his whole body to the right as he sidestepped the door sending it past him. "Oh do that again it will be very helpful when I try to get out." the Count said. It was mostly a lie, he did have a plan to get out but he was just mocking Otto. "Last chance." Edmond claimed. He knew what he would do if Otto passed out and other then tie him up nothing would happen. It did not matter to the Count if he freed the girl beside him it was only an added bonus it he could. He was not going to dissect a man for not helping. Edmond had not seen Otto but the plant back in the box but he had never really thought it mattered.

"I am planning on it." The Count replied. He kept his attention divided on the arms and doors but it was not small task. He knew Otto would be fading and used that to his advantage. With sleepiness came slower reactions and that was all he needed. The Count burst forward with speed and leapt onto a table and from that onto the door. Then from there he leapt over Otto maintaining the same rapid speed. Edmond twisted his body so that if the arms did go of him they would only grab each other and when he hit the ground behind Otto he rolled back onto his feet and took a fighting stance. "Nap time." The Count mocked.

Edmond saw the arm as he was turning but could not react without having fully turned so he used what little time he had to complete the turn. The arms were fast, he could not hide that but he only needed to hold out for a little while longer. Besides he had always been a fan of dodge ball when he was younger. in the few seconds he saw them before taking action he noticed one was going directly towards him and the other two seemed to be blocking any way of countering. He could however not let the arms get to him. He could not slide under without risking being caught, and he could not go over them without definitely being caught. However the arms were only so long. He could back up until he was out of reach but that would put him close to the entrance to the other room and that was a risk. He knew Otto didn't have long but he only needed seconds to rip Edmond apart. So Edmond back petalled to the wall keeping his eyes on the arms. When he reached the wall he stopped and waited to see if they would reach. At least with his back on the wall he had a new advantage.

Edmond noticed Otto's trouble and he played on it. The first step in his plan was to utilize the arms as a weapon against Octavious and it was a simple thing to do. He sidestepped the first one that snapped at him and grabbed it. Then he did the same with the second only he twisted it with the first. Then came the third and he followed the same method. Once he was holding all three, and struggling to do so at that, he looked over at Otto "Have a nice trip." Edmond mocked simply before pulling the arms with great force. The plan was simply to make Octavious trip. It was simple, but with the drug setting in, getting back up might not be.
