Jason's POV
Lupo came into my cell and sat next to me. He sighs and crosses his arms, "Just tell us where your base is. We know where you sent your men out. We attacked Vaas' old island and pirates were there. You know something, so what is it?"
"I don't know anything about that..." I say to him bluntly, "I don't make the calls about sending pirates out."
"Bullshit Brody, I'm not in the fucking mood to do this!" He spits and stands up, moving towards the small table with the tools on it.
"I told you I don't know. You think I'm somehow commanding the pirates from here?" I roll my eyes but he punches me. The force of his punch makes me lean over to one side of my chair. I quickly turn back over and shoot him a glare, the side of my face stinging.
"I think you're lying." He paces back and forth but finally comes close to me, "You can't do shit anyway you little cocky bastard..." he starts but is interrupted by the door opening. Citra walks in, eyeing Lupo; almost like she is judging him for something.
"Lupo." She says breathlessly and they meet each other's eyes. He stands up and walks out without any question. After he leaves, Citra strides over to me, sighing, "I told him not to do that. I'm sorry Jason." She says, keeping her eyes on me. I just stare at her, not saying a word. She comes up to me and caresses my face. Her fingers are soft and her hand is smooth, gently soothing the spot where Lupo just hit me. She then leans in, grabbing my face and pushes me close to her,
"I told you, I'm not the same Jason." I say and do my best to get some space between us. There's only so much I can do though.
A flash of disappointment comes across her face but she has a speedy recovery. "I missed you! And I love you, but you never once let me give you all my love. You didn't trust me." She leans back and rubs my left arm, where my Tatau is. She looks down at my work, then back up to me. She leans in, her hands now around my neck.
"No, stop!" I spit out and pull away from her. I grip the ends of the chair tightly, trying to keep any space in between us, "Citra... you don't even know if I'm still your warrior. I'm not." I honestly couldn't think of anything else to say, I was stuck. I never thought anything out anyway, but I have to convince her otherwise that I'm not the one she wants.
"You know, you're right. You're on the wrong side. But you're still the same man who killed the giants who ruled our island. The man who saved the islands from evil." Citra steps back from me and puts her hands on her hips.
"No," I shake my head, "I'm not." She frowns and crosses her arms. She takes a deep breath and looks at me.
"You're not ready yet. Fine Warrior. Batari will be here in a few minutes, to give you your food and clean you up again." She says and turns around. She starts to leave but stops right before she gets to the door. She turns on her heels and glances at me, "There are things that you don't know, Jason. Soon..." she whispers and leaves. Something I don't know? What could that be?
Batari is coming in soon though. Good. This is my chance. Time to escape this place. I ready myself and make sure my arms could still get through. Before anyone came through, I took the tool and cut the back tape off of my legs, only the back of them so she wouldn't notice.
I hear the door open and here comes in Batari, with the tray. Right on time. She does the same thing, moves the tools and sits the tray down. She wipes her hands on the thighs of her pants and exhales, "Hey Jase."
"Hey Batari." I say back as I watch her every move. She doesn't suspect a thing.
"Alright, I'll try to be as gentle as I can." She starts giggling and wipes my face, "Is that better?" She asks leaning over me.
