'You've got this (Y/N), do what Carter says tell the truth and don't avoid questions. You would have had to tell father about Zack sooner or later. Would prefer later but oh well. Just need to get this over and done with, and get back to finding Zack before he gets a day ahead of me.' The elevator opens you step out head towards the Boss' office. You gets to the door as you're about to knock Boss opens the double doors.
"Finally you're back, how was the assignment?" Sound of disappointment in his voice.
'Great he's pissed...' "The assignment went well, everything in the report including the photos as evidence. Have to say I quite enjoy it even though it was short." Handed him the report looks away.
Boss quickly looks at the elevator seeing it's only a floor away. Looks back to the report.
- In the elevator -
"Before you get to speak to (Y/N) you need to be quiet and don't say a thing."
"How come?" Ray quickly ask before Zack had a chance to say anything.
"Because The Boss wants it to be a surprise for (Y/N). Apparently, she's been looking for you on the sly. Even though The Boss knew the whole time."
"Wait... She's been looking for me?"
"Isn't that just what I said, Mummy?" James chuckles.
"Don't call me Mummy Cockface!"
"Zack don't." Ray gentle puts her hand on Zack's arm.
"......" Zack sends James death stares.
"We're here now be quiet!"
The Boss coughs to get your attention, so you wouldn't hear the bing of the elevator.
"I'm disgusted in the way you've acted today! Going behind my back to rescue some boy you don't even know! Complete disregard of the rules and going to prison with a pathetic excuse! I thought I taught you better (Y/N)!" Yells at you so you wouldn't hear footsteps or chatter.
James gets Zack and Ray to stand a few metres behind you.
'No walking away from this one, guess it's now or never...' You fix your jacket and hope there's confidence in your voice says. "He's not just some boy! He's my closest friend and his name is Zack. We made a promise that we would see each other again! I'm not going to break our promise! I'll do anything make sure he's safe! I did not disregard our rules, stayed to them and didn't compromise the order! My excuse was not pathetic, I am writing a book and I need to see an execution. I just didn't say I wanted to watch it fail..." That last part didn't sound so confident.
"So what you haven't seen what's his name, Jack? And you want to see him, he broke your heart and you're still loyal to him?" He knows how to rev you up, he'll be lying if he said he didn't enjoy seeing you pissed. His little girl so easily pissed off.
"I said his name is ZACK! No, he didn't break my heart I was sold to sex traffickers... I'll always be loyal to him no matter, even if he forgets about me... Zack... Zack my closest friend, we did everything together when we were kids... Even though it was a Death house. We stuck by each other, right up till those vile pieces of shit took me away... Not a day goes by where I don't think about him... This morning was the first time I've heard or seen him in five years... It's like he disappears without a trance. When I saw the news this morning I wasn't going to let them execute him..." By now the tears already started falling. You hadn't told anyone this. In a way, it's like a weight was finally off your shoulders.
Zack staring straight at you, hanging off your every word.
"sniffly I want time off so I can find Zack. Please? I've never asked you for any favours. I only ask for two, let me fine Zack and let him live here... With me. Please, Father!" Tears continue runs down your face. Holding onto the hope that he'll say yes.
"What about Rachel? Zack's girlfriend?"
Little taken back, as you never thought about that. Her being much younger than him. Then again, you are criminals/killers so rules don't really apply to you.
"And for her too, please. If she makes him happy then that's okay. I'll be sad, and heartbroken but that's okay. Cause if she dares hurt Zack in any way, she'll wish she was dead."
"Haha, do you hear that Zack? You got quite a friend here! Hahaha, I'm sorry little Miss Gardner."
You stare at your father confused as fuck. Why is he talking to Zack as if he was... Just then you realise your father set you up. Quickly turn around and see Zack. It can't be Zack? Could it? No way Father knew? You wanted to run, but your legs wouldn't move.
Zack still gobsmack, did you really just say all that? Is that really you?
Both your Father and James push you both. Since neither of you wanted to make a move, it was like a standoff. Both of you staring the other down.
With a push you run to Zack, diving into his chest his your tears. "Zack! Zack, I've missed you so much. Is it really you?" You look up into his chocolate brown, golden eyes.
He keeps his head up, not wanting to show his emotions. "Yeah, it's me you cry baby. Now stop ya crying, you're getting my jacket and bandages wet."
You smile at him, using your old nickname. "Sorry, I'll get you some new ones. I have a fresh supply in my apartment."
"Good cause I don't have any."
James clears his throat, "I'm happy to see you (Y/N) reunite with your old friend. But I have things to do, so goodbye." He quickly makes his way to his own office.
Wiping the tears away from her eyes you see your scythe leaning against the wall. "Oh James... How did my scythe get out of my weapons room?" Now stand up turning to face James. James makes no reply.
"James, How did my scythe get out of it holds? JAMES?!"
James makes a dash of his office, with you on his trail. James just makes it inside the door and closes it. An unsettling grin creeps its way, walk back excuse yourself grab your scythe.
"(Y/N) don't you dare! (F/N)! No more dam-" Your father's cut off. As you swing the scythe at the door slicing it in half. Stepping over the broken door you chase James around his office, slicing up furniture.
"Troublesome girl! What am I going to do with you." Shakes his head.
"Excuse me, sir, should we stop her?" Ray walks up to the Boss.
"No they'll be fine, they normally do this. I just wish they would stop destroying things."
Zack covers his face and smiles, mumbles, "you're alive! And you destroy things too."
