Light The Fire

The Phony and The True

Liz 3rd person
Liz wakes up to her echo going off. It's the guys who she told to spy on Axton and Sarah. She wakes up so fast and listens to what they sent her.
Begin of Echo
Sarah: so I wanted to see you in here for a talk about how've you been.

Axton: yeah?

Sarah: I wanted to let you know that you've been doing good. I've also heard you're in a long distance relationship.

Axton *chuckles*: that is correct but I will need a fill in for her if you want to be it.

Sarah: well Axton we have work to do. I don't want to tread on land I don't own unless it's a rivals.

Axton *seductive voice*: we could make her your rival.

Sarah: doesn't she matter to you?

Axton *laughs*: that's hilarious. She was only a hook up. You were my real wife.

*kiss sounds*
Echo end
Liz throws her echo across the room and it shatters a window looking to the main ship. She yells and falls to the ground, "I fucking knew it! I don't want to ever hear from him again!" Maya runs into the room and over to Liz, "what's wrong?" Liz shakes her head, "nothing just an echo." Maya raises an eyebrow, "about?" She points to her echo and Maya picks it up. Liz looks up to her, "listen to it." Maya plays it and puzzles, "that doesn't seem right. He loves you to death. Something's up." Liz huffs, "seems fucking real! I'm done with it. I'm done with him. I don't want to speak with him." Maya rubs Liz's back but it's hot and she jumps away, "I forgot about that. Ouch. Anyways I can't tell you what to do, but you know if you need anything everyone on this ship looks out for you." Liz nods and watches Maya leave and then curls up with a worry filled Junior who senses her hurt. Liz smiles, "at least my baby will love me always." Junior lays on Liz who is now cooled some. Liz grins and gets back to sleeping.
A few days later
Liz gets another echo from Axton while sitting at the bar in Moxxi's. She yells, "Again!? Doesn't he understand I don't want to talk to him." Moxxi turns to her kind of confused, "what's wrong sugar?" Liz huffs, "Axton! He won't stop echoing me. I don't want to fucking talk to him." Moxxi puzzles, "why?" Liz frowns, "he cheated on me with his ex." Moxxi tenses, "need another stiff drink?" Liz nods, "I know, it's sad. I'm drinking over a guy." Moxxi shakes her head, "it's not. You loved him to pieces sugar. I thought he did the same." Liz makes a sad smile and rolled her eyes, "I thought so too. I guess not." Moxxi makes her a drink and tends to other costumers. Liz walks out and takes her drink with her and runs into Moze and she spills her drink, "dammit!" Moze scrunches up and wipes the drink off Liz, "I'm so sorry." Liz sighs, "it's fine I'm going through worse right now." Moze puzzles, "what's been going on?" Liz shrugs, "I guess you could say a break up... I don't know just a tough time in mine and Axton's relationship I guess." Moze hesitates, "I don't know what to tell you. I've never had a real relationship." Liz smiles and pats her on the shoulder, "it's fine I'm getting over it...I guess. See you around. By the way tell Lilith I'm taking a break from the raiders. I'll get over whatever this is and I'll be back." Moze nods and watches Liz walk away.
Maya 3rd person
Moze runs into the room and Maya, Lilith, and the others look at her. Moze squeals, "Liz says to tell Lilith that she's taking a break from the raiders." Lilith puzzles, "why?" Maya sighs, "I think I know why. She and Axton been having trouble for a few days." Lilith rolls her eyes, "what did he do now?" Maya huffs, "he cheated on her with his ex. She doesn't want to talk to him and all this. I think it's best if she has her time to think things through. She's trying to get over it." Lilith stares in shock, "that doesn't sound like Axton. Axton loves her to death. He'll even risk his turret for her. That's saying a lot." Maya gives a tiny laugh, "I know. Anyways I say we should all give him a call and see what the hell is going on." Lilith nods, "I'm in." Maya calls Axton's echo and he immediately answers, "I was about to call you. Do you know what's wrong with Liz? She's not answering my echo calls and hasn't even been returning them. I'm worried." Maya scowls, "maybe if you didn't fuck your ex we wouldn't be here." Axton stutters in shock, "w-what in the world are you talking about!? I haven't messed around with her in years. She wasn't even that good." Maya raises an eyebrow, "you mean a few days." Axton yells, "no! I did have a talk with her though. I put Sarah in her place." Maya smirks, "you put her in her place alright." Axton sighs, "I'm so confused right now. Why would I sleep with my ex? I hate her. I had a whole conversation and she was saying all these crappy things about Liz and I put her in her place. I can even let you here the conversation we had." Maya raises an eyebrow to the others, "let me hear it."
Echo Beginning
Sarah: please have a seat.

Axton: you wanted to see me?

Sarah: yes. I needed to talk to you.

Axton: what about?

Sarah: I've called you in here to talk to you. You've been doing amazing.

Axton: I know. What do you need me for?

Sarah: I've been thinking about before you left for Pandora and I said all that foolish stuff. I made a mistake.

Axton *chuckles*: yeah you did, but one thing...

Sarah: don't say anything yet. I was wrong. That mission you dead when I fired you. I thought about it and realized I made a mistake. That was a good plan. You even opened the vault. You're tough and smart. Also I see you never lost my ring.

Axton: Sarah the thing I had to tell you is I already have someone new. She's going to be my future. She is the best thing that's ever happened to me. She's a lot better in far many ways than. I wish she could her this conversation right now.

Sarah: who is this Pandorian bandit trash you tell me about?

Axton: first of all, she's not a bandit. Secondly, you don't need to know her and lastly, I'd be damned if you talk about her like that again.

Sarah: how's she better than me? I own a whole company.

Axton: I can't even begin to mention all the ways so I'll name the main ways. Firstly, she's a lot more bad ass than you. Not just because of her powers. Secondly, she's a lot better to me than you ever were. Not to mention you only own this company because of your dad and she instead of just commanding, will actually be on the frontline leading her group. My princess has bigger woman balls than you. You don't even know how much she wants you dead. You already caused arguments between us.

Sarah: ...

Sarah: I see. Well I'll give you your mission and you can go fulfill it.

Axton: that'll be appreciated.
Echo end
Maya's eyes go wide and Lilith speaks up, "I knew it was a phony. I knew you wouldn't do that to her." Maya looks to Lilith, "same here." Axton questions, "what are y'all talking about?" Maya sighs, "Liz got an echo of you seducing you're ex and saying mean things about Liz. That she was just a hook up and all this other stuff." Axton's voice full with confusion and a bit of anger, "where did that come from?" Maya huffs, "I don't know. All I know is that she threw her echo device and shattered her room window and I went to see what was wrong. I'll go find her now." Maya keeps the echo going and makes her way to Liz's room with Lilith. Maya opens Liz's door, but sees no one. Not even Junior. Maya puzzles, "she's..." Lilith finishes, "gone."

Note: I wonder where she went? Without her knowing what really went on how would she be able to find out?

P.S thx for reading love y'all.
