Everything's a blur. Ace wakes up with an extremely intense pain in her head, she presses her hand against it as if that's going to ease the pain in anyway.

"Fuck", she says in pain. She sits up and notices that she's in a dark room. As her vision refocuses she notices where she's at. She's in the same cavern that she went to when she ran away from the war with Scrap. Right when she thought of his name she notices a tall figure move from the dark into the semi-dark. It was light enough for her to notice the persons bone-like right arm. She knew who it was but to be honest she was too terrified to say or move at all. She knew that he finally snapped, she knew it was going to happen eventually but it happened to sudden. Scrap walks into the lighter portion of the room only to reveal that he has blood all over both arms and somewhat all over his torso.

"Oh, yeah this?", he says noticing her staring at his blood stained clothing, "funny story actually. When Asher woke up after getting hit with that rock he was being really annoying and I already had a massive headache. I was trying to forcefully shut him up but then he started getting violent and I just couldn't deal with that, so I "dealt" with him.". She still didn't speak, she was so scared. She just kept scooting backwards till she hit the wall, then she just stiffened up as she watching him walk closer to her.

He was holding an object in his hands. She didn't know what it was and she didn't want to know what it was, fearing the worst from it. He throws the object on the ground in front of Ace, is was her bow and a single arrow. She shakily grabs both objects.

He stands a few feet in front of her looks her in the eyes.

"I want you to fucking kill me already.", he said.

Terrified, she puts the arrow on the string and pulls it back, aiming directly for him. Just as she was about to release the arrow, she drops it.

"I-I can't.", she says through her sobbing. She can't do it, she won't kill him. She just won't do it. "I won't kill you".

Scrap picks up her bow and busts it in half, throwing it to the other side of the room. He walks closer to her, watching her as she sits on the floor scared and crying.

"This wouldn't have happened if you would've let me die like the burden I am.", he says as he kneels down to Ace. He violently grabs her by the neck and pushes her back against the wall. The sound of her head hitting the wall echoed around the small room. With his strength he picks her up into an standing position, using his left arm pressed forcefully against her neck, pinning her there. Ace, who is slowly being choked, tries to get out of his grasps but he's just too strong.

"You know I didn't want to be this way?", he says angrily presses harder on her neck, causing her intense pain. "I didn't ask to be fucking made". He punches the wall inches away from her head with his bionic arm. Ace maneuvers herself to allow herself to take a breath of air, although it was difficult to breath through the choking and crying.

"I know t-this isn't y-you", she manages to say. Scrap looks at her with his now lifeless eyes. He uses his cold metal thumb on this right arm to wipe away the tears running down the side of her face, leaving blood in its place. He leans in till he's only inches away from her face.

"You don't fucking know who I am",

he calmly says before grabbing her neck with his bionic arm again. Pulling her forward slightly then violent throwing her head back against the wall, then repeating it again, making her body go limp. He lets go of her, dropping her to the ground. Ace, barely breathing, tries to pick herself back up but being too weak she just collapsed back to the ground. She weakly opens her eyes and looks at Scrap stand in front of her. She struggles to lift her head to look up at him. The pain fades away as everything goes black. 

I still don't regret saving you.
