At first all she heard was another voice, familiar, breaking her out of her sleep.

"Huh...?"

Jade woke up on a slightly raised platform, walled in by clear material on all sides, with holes for ventilation (she assumed, she wasn't sure). If there was a door, Jade couldn't find it -- there were no hinges, or door handles. All that she could see, aside from Jack on the floor slightly below her, pendulum in place, was a glass container filled with clear liquid, a bright red object placed at the bottom.

And a note.

Jade ( ... )

Jack sat and listened. There wasn't much else he could do-- he was strapped down without even an inch of wiggle room.

And then the axe started swinging.

Fuck.

He could tell from Jade's tone this wasn't going to go well. Jade didn't like him. She didn't trust him, even if he managed to win her over for a little while. Maybe that was just because he looked like Bec? Fuck fuck fuck he didn't just tear off his own fucking shoulder to die now, and sure as hell not like this--

"Just press the button!" he growled. "Fuck-- you don't have to like me, kid, I don't even care if you forgive me or not! Just press the damn button!"

"No!"

Somewhere deep down, she felt a little bad about this whole ordeal. But weren't these people right? He deserved it. People might actually thank her! Jack had been enough of a nuisance to her and her friends; she could only imagine what he had gotten up to while he was here.

"Give me one good reason, and I'll think about it! And no half-hearted reasons either, or I'll just let that stupid thing cut you in half!"

"What the fuck, you need a fucking reason not to murder me?!"

...Well, okay, he did kind of kill her that one time. And her friends. And all those Prospitians. And this Jade didn't know about any of the shit that happened while he was in the Facility.

So... well, shit. How the hell was he supposed to convince her he'd changed? It was always so much easier when Dave or John did the explaining for him. He was bad at this.

"Alright, fuck, just--" Shit. How the hell to explain this? "Kid, if this is about revenge or teaching me some fucked up lesson then I'm telling you now, I've already done all that! Killing me now isn't gonna do anyone any goddamn favours! The Jack that attacked all of you, that wanted to kill you just to win some stupid war-- that's not me anymore, you've gotta believe me!"
