Kurk kicks Jack’s stool from under him and he falls harshly down onto the floor so he wakes up. He mutters something about acquiring the money before Friday and then opens his eyes to see three officers of the law standing over him. He screams: “Capes!” and jumps onto his feet and tries to get away to freedom by jumping over the table but he fails horribly and tumbles down onto his head. He then tries to crawl away as fast he can.Picture of Toasted-Jack<img src="http://dungeon3e.thedamned.ca/cops_n_robbers/potraits/toastedjack.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />But it isn’t fast enough and Kurk grabs him by the back of the neck and pulls him back onto his feet. He then pushes him into a nearby seat and growls. Jack goes pale and tries to hide himself in his jacket.“Where is Scarran?!?” Kurk growls.“I-I d-don’t-t kn-now... how should-d I kn-now?”“Tell me!”“I t-told ya, I-I don’t know... really, I-I swear it-t!”Incognito looks Jack directly in the eyes. “Ok, do you know what it is that Scarran did for Grunt? I’d answer truthfully or I’ll be forced to let my partner here take over.”Kurk cracks his knuckles and smiles.Toasted-Jack looks like he’s battling the strong urge to sh*t himself. “Erm... Grunt was looking for some Harrgard gnomes to do some dirty work for him. For some reason it had to be a Harrgard gnome. Harrgard gnomes are hard to find in the city except for the gadget merchants over in the serpent. They tend to stick to home. Thankfully I knew Scarran.”“What is this ‘dirty job’?”“I don’t know, I honestly don’t know.” But he quickly starts remembering things when he sees Kurk sharpening his axe. ”Aah! He needed an insider, he was planning on stealing something in Harrgard. He needed someone to get him inside. That city is more heavily defended than the Kentaarian Emperor’s palace!”“What was it he was planning to steal?”“I don’t know!”“You sure?” Kurk asks as he swing his axe just in front of Jack’s nose.Toasted-Jack screams hysterically: “YES! Really!! I honestly don’t know!!! Please don’t hurt me. PLEASE!! I don’t know anything more!” He starts sobbing and his eyes fill with tears. “I owe someone a lot of money! If you kill me he’ll just reanimate me as a zombie and force me to work until I can pay the debt. Please, I don’t want to become a zombie!!”Incognito tells Kurk to stop tormenting Jack and then they go to meet back with Sergeant Carp, leaving Toasted-Jack behind crying on the floor.* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *</blockquote>
