Jessica and Ivy returned back at the base, Ivy looking like she wasn’t sure of going in. “Something happened.” Ivy muttered. “What?” Jessica asked. “Something happened while we were gone.” She answered. Jessica looked worried, rushing in. “Jessica, wait!” Ivy yelled, following after her.

“Jessica, you can’t just-” Ivy tried to lecture Jessica before seeing Olivia being held back by Axel, Axel being covered in taser marks. “The fuck!?” Ivy questioned, not knowing whether to be irritated or worried. “She tried attacking us!” Axel yelled, trying to keep her still. “LET GO OF ME!!” She screamed. Jessica approached Olivia slowly.

“You either help us, or you stay in the closet.” Jessica demanded. “Oh please, like ANY of you could beat ME.” Olivia laughed psychotically. “That’s enough outta you!” Axel added, pushing his foot on her back. “Jessica, you okay!?” Lukas questioned, seeming stressed and anxious about the situation, even more anxious once he saw Jessica’s arm.

“I just got a burn, I’ll be fine.” Jessica assured him. “Jessica, I told you to be careful.” Lukas replied in a lecturing tone. “I was saving Ivy from a fireball shot by a ghast.” Jessica answered. “Well, until it gets to the point it’s good enough to go out and hunt supplies...” Lukas started. “Axel, are you okay with going out and getting supplies?” Lukas asked.

“Sure, I don’t even wanna be here with HER anyways.” Axel added, glaring at Olivia, locking and shoving her back into the closet. “Well, c’mon, Jessica. Let’s get that patched up." Ivy answered, leading Jessica to her resting area so she could patch up her burn.

Lukas looked worried as she walked away, scared for her well-being. “Lukas, she can look after herself.” Axel replied. “I know, but I don’t want to lose her too. I’ve only got you and her left. And I won’t rest until this thing is stopped. I don’t want to lose her again.” Lukas sighed.

“Lukas, I know you're worried. You just gotta loosen up. Trust me, it’s hard. I know how hard it is, but she can take care of herself.”

“I just hope she doesn’t get hurt again.”
