I slowly started to open my eyes as I saw light shining in through the window. I started to sit up as I placed my hand to my head and I let out a small groan.Jacob: *In low voice* I wonder how long...I was out for this time.
That's when I heard breathing next to me. I looked down and to my right and I saw Illustrious sitting in a chair. She was laying her head on the side of the bed sleeping. That's when I smiled softly and placed my hand on her head and started rubbing.
Jacob: Thanks for watching over me, Illustrious.
???: She never left your side while you were out.
I looked up and saw Belfast standing at the door.
Jacob: I see.
Belfast: How are you feeling, Master?
Jacob: Better now. Still a little tired though.
Belfast: Then you should get some more rest.
Jacob: I'm fine. Where are we at right now?
Belfast: We are heading back to the main base, Master.
Jacob: I see. Well then, maybe I can rest for a while longer. I was going to let everyone know that we were done.
Belfast: No need to worry about that, Master. Just get some more rest. We should be back home shortly.
Jacob: Okay then. I'll just take it easy in here until we get back.
Belfast: I didn't mean you had to stay in here.
Jacob: I know, but I'd hate for her to wake up and see that I'm not here.
I looked down at Illustrious and smiled.
Belfast: Understood, Master.
I saw Belfast turn and was about to walk out of the room.
Jacob: Hold on Bel.
Belfast: Do you need my assistance?
Jacob: No, I just... I wanted to thank you for pulling me out of the water after the fight. I was so tired from my fight with Arbiter and my evil self. So thank you.
Belfast: I only did what was expected of me as your maid. My apologise for being blunt, Master.
Jacob: No need Belfast. I know you care for me like everyone else.
Belfast: I'll leave you to rest now, Master. But before I go, I need to know, Did you mean to pull through that close? You were close to dying.
Jacob: No. I wasn't trying to call it that close. The First Host told me that something was wrong with my evil self. He told me that it was stronger than normal.
Belfast: I see. I'm happy to hear that you weren't trying to lose.
Jacob: Why would I try and lose now? I'd be giving up you all.
Belfast: What do you mean by that, Master?
I stood up and walked over to Belfast before I wrapped my arms around her as I hugged her.
