"Wait, where are we going?" Zack asks for the millionth time. It was dark and we were miles away from his house. "I told you 20 minutes ago!" I say aggravated. Zack jogs up to me. "We should stop." He says. "We can't, people are looking for us." I tell him. "Who's looking for us?" He asks. I let out a frustrated sigh. "Did all that time being him make you forget?" I ask suddenly stopping. "Forget What?" He asks. I facepalm myself. "You idiot," I hold onto his shoulders. "Owen and Eliza are looking for us, as well as the people we're avoiding." I tell him. "Wait, so we aren't trying to avoid Owen and Eliza?" He asks. I let go of his shoulders and kick a tree. "I am so confused." I hear Zack mutter. I sigh and turn to face him again. "We aren't trying to avoid Owen and Eliza because I want to kill them." I say, beginning to walk again. Zack runs up to me and suddenly hugs me. "I'm sorry." He says softly. I push him away. "I told you to stop saying that." I glare at him. "If you haven't forgiven, then why are we together now?" He asks. "We're together because I have to make sure you don't become like me." I say. "Well then who'll make sure you don't become worse?" He asks. "No one." I simply say. "Then you-" He begins but I shush him by placing my hand over his mouth.

I see something flicker between the trees. A light. It can't be a car, it's too small. Then I look down at my shoes and see a red dot slowly moving up to my chest. I look at Zack and he already has three on his chest. "Oh shit." I mutter. I let go of Zack's mouth and pull him behind me. "What are you doing?" He asks. "Protecting you." I say. "But you'll get shot." He says. "I can't die, remember?" I say. "Oh yeah, but who's behind the trees?" He asks. "I'll guess that it's two people leading the group of snipers who should have both been dead by now!" I say rather loudly. "Well done, an A+ for you." The voice of pure agony emerges from behind the trees. "I try." I say. "Did you know that Owen had a huge crush on you and then told me that he loved you?" I ask her as I see Owen move in the distance. "No, I didn't know that." She says with a disgusted look on his face. She turns to Owen. "Although that would explain the gifts you gave me that I later burned." She says. I watch Owen as his smile falls. Zack lets out a loud laugh from behind me.

"Oh, I almost forgot that you were there." Eliza says. I look at the men behind her...there's something familiar about them but I don't know what. "So Eliza, where's Jax?" Zack asks moving to the side of me. "Dead." She says looking at me. My eyes snap to hers. "You sick bitch, you murdered your own brother?!" I shout as anger fuels me. "He was annoying and kept talking about you all the time."She says rolling her eyes. I feel Zack look at me. "Who are all these people?" I growl as I remember the information Jax told me. "His." She says smugly. I run towards her as men shoot at me and I tackle her. "Don't shoot!" Owen yells. Eliza laughs as I punch her. "You'll die any minute now." She says. An idea pops into my head as my heart stops for a brief moment. All she needs to do is think I'm permanently dead. She pushes me off her and feels my pulse. "Dead." She announces.

My heart begins beating again. "All right, grab him and carry him back to the base." Owen shouts. "Let me go!" I hear Zack say as his voice moves closer to me. "We are going to have fun with him." Eliza says. "No, you won't." He says stepping on my hand. I wince and peek open an eye. I tap his foot with my finger. I see him look down at me with a smirk on his lips. Then the man behind him pushes him forward making him stumble. "Keep walking." Owen orders. "What should we do with the body?" He asks. I close my eyes again. "Leave it, no one is going to wander here." Eliza says stepping over me. She called me it, i guess I'm an object now.

As soon as they're out of sight and the last truck leaves, I open my eyes and sit up. I press my hand against my stomach, it was still bleeding but I was healing very slowly. It still hurts though. "Well now I guess I'm going to have to return to the problem I was running from." I mutter to myself. I stand up and begin walking back to Zack's house. Luckily I see no one on my way there which makes this easier. When I reach the front door and ring the doorbell, the door unlocks but doesn't open. I go in and turn on the lights, I don't see much except for two hands that pull me down to a chair and the other with green painted fingernails sticking a dart into me. Then after that, it all goes to black.
