[QUOTE="Calinon, post: 1726592, member: 13737"] [b][font=Times New Roman]Flying Without A Pilot's License Neutron[/font][/b] [font=Times New Roman]The communication system dials up the number for Ms. Vaile and a vid screen emerges from the center of the dashboard.

"And I see Miss Cortez is with you. I had wondered how long it would take you to call in. I see Miss Cortez is not faring very well. You seem to be rather healthy, however," he says with an air of superiority about him, and no actual concern.[/font] [b][font=Times New Roman]In A Cave System Outside Mai Pai, China[/font][/b] [font=Times New Roman]While Raisa, Xi and Carl make no move to stop X12, Jackal growls at him warningly.[/font] [font=Times New Roman]"You can't do that. It's not right," he growls.[/font] [font=Times New Roman]"Oh, my hero," Mia Toan says in a honeyed voice. Jackal responds to her by slamming his much harder forehead into hers.[/font] [font=Times New Roman]"Shut up," he snaps at her as she slumps into unconsciousness. Jackal gets up and turns to face all of you, his bones cracking as he shrinks down to his normal, human form.[/font] [font=Times New Roman]"What is wrong with all of you? I'm hurting too," he says, pressing his hands against his chest. "I feel like part of me is dying too. Kevin helped free me from the Jackal; he was my friend. But this isn't what he'd want! This is a road that I was forced down by the Jackal, and this isn't something any of you should want either.[/font] [font=Times New Roman]"What will you tell your parents, Raisa? That you stood by and watched someone get killed? Or just lie to them about it?" he says to Raisa, trying to convince her. "Or you, Carl. I thought this was your big chance to get away from being a thug and make something of yourself. This isn't the way to do it! And you two," he says to Xi and X12. "This is just what Prophet wants you to do! This is your programming at work, isn't it?" he asks pleadingly.[/font] [font=Times New Roman]Carl snorts. "You know what? You can take your stupid speech and shove it. I hated Kevin but he didn't deserve to die; but you know why he's dead? He's dead 'cause we didn't off the bitch last time! The cops got her and she got off or got away and I don't want her coming back to do pull the crap again. So shut up and get the hell out of the way so we can put her out of our misery," he snaps at Michael.[/font] [/QUOTE]
