*David's Pov*

I hear screaming. I open my eyes and look across from me and see Sandra yelling for them to "let us out of here." We're both tied to chairs in some kind of surveillance room.

"S-Sandra did they hurt you?" I asked.

"B-Bill, he tried t-t-t-"

"I'm gonna fucking kill him with my bare hands." I said cutting her off. She shouldn't have to say those words. "The kids, where's the kids do you know?"

"N-No I don't. Damnit they better not touch them." She cried.

"Well look who's finally awake." Jack comes in wearing that stupid black tux and holding that 9mm from earlier.

"W-Why are you doing this?" Sandra cried.

"Well since you asked so nicely, I guess I'll tell you why." He holsters his gun to the back of his pants.

"Well you see it's because...it's the end of fucking everything!!" He laughs. He gives a deadly stare to Sandra, getting closer to her face. "I'm doing this because I bloody freaking can. Those kids evading my busisness, my privacy, my life. This new world and those damn kids took EVERYTHING from me!!!"

"What was his name?" I asked him. He turns and looks at me with a crazed look in his eyes.

"What?"

"The guard that Dylan and Olivia killed. What was his name?" He gets in my face, pulling a knife out. He pauses.

"His name was bloody Hank." I start to laugh.

"Aye what the hell is so fucking funny?" I stopped laughing and looked him dead in his eyes man to man.

"Liar." He punches me in the gut and gives me a back hand that cuts my face open.

"Stop it please!!" Sandra cries.

"Now why the hell would I ever lie about something like that?" He asked me. I cleared my throat.

"Before this shit started I was a cop and a damn good one at that. Johnny knows he can't keep shit from me, I got one helluva bullshit detector. You know your other guards names without a thought. And if you truly lost a comrade you'd remember their name until the day you'd died. But no, you lost someone else who means more to you than a comrade. You said that Olivia and Dylan took everything from you. You never put your wife down didn't you?"

"YOU SHUT THE HELL UP!!! DON'T YOU EVER MENTION MY WIFE AGAIN OR I'LL CUT YOUR BLOODY HEART OUT!!!"

"TELL ME I'M WRONG JACK!! That look you have in your eyes, the pain, the realization you can't touch her or grow old with the woman you love anymore, the regret of not telling her how much you truly loved her, the guilt you have for not saving her from death, DAMNIT THAT'S THE SAME FEELING I'VE HAD FOR YEARS!!" I cried. Jack for the first time since I've met him was silent. He turned around not wanting either of us to see his face.

"I-I couldn't kill her, so I tied her up so she couldn't go anywhere. Then those kids found her and... (sighs) nonetheless I did tell you if you mention her again I'd bloody cut your damn heart out myself." He turns back to me, knife in hand and stands there.

"Just don't hurt the kids." I told the bastard as he lifts the knife up.

"Wait. I'm not gonna kill you." Jack backs off.

"Your not?" I asked confused.

"No I'm not. She is!"

He drives the knife into Sandra's gut.
