When stranger came closer with the chains, Sapphire moved a bit closer, as he bent forward to take hold of the chains. First he tapped his fingers on the chains a few times, to hear the sound the metal made. He closed his eyes for a moment as he focused on the sound. It was obvious to him that this was  a kind of steel alloy, informing him it would take quite some effort to get this off. He doubted it was safe for the guy if he worked on the handcuffs themselves.<br/><br/>It took quite some focus to heat his hands up this much, while keeping the fire as small as possible. His hands seemed to radiate orange light as he did so, for fire was raging within the tough grip he had on the metal and the light was escaping through the small spaces between his fingers.<br/><br/>The amount of light he caused with his fire was much like light of a campfire.  His face was lit as if he was about to tell a spooky ghost story, as his head was slightly above the light, casting grim shadows on his face. The light of the fire revealed details of everyone in this  space, though Sapphire was so focused on the metal, that he didn't notice any of them. The fire took his full concentration. Pearls of sweat were forming on his forehead, as well as over his chest.<br/><br/>He hoped it wouldn't heat the temperature too much inside the vehicle, but it did clearly have some effect as he attempted to reach about 700 degrees Celsius within is hands. Out of experience, he knew it would work better and quicker if he would increase it to 1000 degrees Celsius, but he doubted that was safe. Whenever he did that, he made sure to have enough distance and just blast the fire, as that was so much easier. This required so much precision and concentration to keep the fire so small.<br/><br/>"mhm" Sapphire hummed. "Either seeing how heat proof the door is, or waiting till it opens up and then making a run for it" he answered in a whisper. He didn't  inform the other that making a run for it would actually involve flying off and perhaps destroying some obstacles in his way. Surely, they couldn't actually believe they would catch a dragon this easily, could they? Oh yes, of course, they had succeeded in getting him here, without any recollection of what happened. Perhaps they had taken him by surprise. His presence here didn't mean anything yet, he decided.<br/><br/>He had a small grin on his face as he was working with the metal.  The chain was slowly turning orange hot. At that point, Sapphire attempted to pull the chain apart, quickly yanking it. As the metal was now at a shapeable heat, it slowly stretched with Sapphires movement. Just as Sapphire assumed he'd have to retry to process, for it hadn't been successful enough, he saw one of the links was opening. His grin got bigger. Completely focused on the chain, he put all his strength to it to open it further.  Suddenly the link snapped under Sapphire's power, making Sapphire fall back against the wall of the car as the chains slid out of his hands. It didn't feel pleasant for his back at all. But he ignored it, telling himself it was nothing. He looked at the chains, which had fallen down to the floor.  Their hot orange colour disappearing and with that, the light in the space was also disappearing again.<br/><br/>Now the dude still had handcuffs on, but at least they were no longer connected to the chain. If any of the others would pay attention, then they could pull the chain and actually get their handcuffs released  from the chain too, enabling them all to run away when the door would be opened. Not that Sapphire would inform them of this. And it seemed one of them was already on to it. Someone smelling like dog was pulling the chain.  It reminded him of weird the people here smelled, like cat, like dog, like blood.. And they weren't really freaking out, making him conclude that these were no ordinary people either.<br/><br/>"..something is going on.." he mumbled, as it felt like the vehicle was slowing down.
