@Jackal *Mocks you*
“Now you want to act like you're some sort of hero?”

Jackal 3 years ago

@Ashley *huffs dramatically, going silent for a solid 3 seconds before speaking up again*
you're really going to give me nothing? after I saved your pathetic little life?
*scoffs as I slow my pace once I see the door to the bunker nearing*

Ashley [A] 3 years ago

@Jackal *Grabs your arm and gently removes it from my shoulder*
No thanks.

Jackal 3 years ago

@Ashley if I can do it while bleeding to death, then you can do it too. but if you want, I can just keep flirting with you until you try to kill me
*jokes as I drape an arm over your shoulder*

Ashley [A] 3 years ago

@Jackal You’re literally dying, what do you want me to do, make some sarcastic joke?

Jackal 3 years ago

@Ashley oh, seeing you so shy is adorable. what happened to the who tried to tell me off not so long ago?
*teases with a grin, reaching out to jokingly poke your arm*

Ashley [A] 3 years ago

@Jackal *sighs*
Yeah, never mind.
*Keeps walking in silence*

Jackal 3 years ago

@Ashley *raises an eyebrow as I look at you, following close behind*
if you were that eager to see me shirtless, you could just ask, you know.

Ashley [A] 3 years ago

@Jackal *Ignores the ‘pretty boy’ comment and starts walking down the hallway fairly quickly*
Uhh, you guys do have an infirmary or something here right?

Jackal 3 years ago

@Ashley why would I waste time to bring you here to kill you? I could've done it back there a long time ago.
*waits impatiently for you to move out of my way before following behind you, closing the hatch behind me and turning to flip a switch that turns on lights which barely manage to illuminate our surroundings*
after you, pretty boy.
*states as I gesture down the impossibly long hallway*

Ashley [A] 3 years ago

@Jackal Well that’s not anymore comforting..
*Starts to go down the ladder into the darkness below, pretty much expecting to get killed at this point*

Jackal 3 years ago

@Ashley *rolls my eyes*
trust me, there's a lot of holes I could trap you in, but this isn't one of them. it's a long walk and I'd prefer it if I didn't die before we get halfway there, now go.
*shoves you closer to the hatch*

Ashley [A] 3 years ago

@Jackal *Looks down at the weird hole in the ground*
Uhh... are you sure? Because right now it’s looking like you’re gonna trap me in a hole
*pauses*
Don’t take that out of context

Jackal 3 years ago

@Ashley not all do. but you can usually tell who does by their main weapon of choice. my axe, for example. do you think I just do this for the money?
*asks sarcastically as I look towards you again, eventually stopping in my tracks as we come to a seemingly random hatch in the ground, mostly covered with leaves and sticks*
after you. don't worry. you probably won't die here.

Ashley [A] 3 years ago

@Jackal So you’re saying that hitmen don’t enjoy killing just for the fun of it?
*I think about offering you my bandana to help with the bleeding but I don’t say anything*

Jackal 3 years ago

@Ashley *snorts before shaking my head*
nobody would pay thousands of dollars to a hitman over someone doing nothing. and even if they would, no hitman would accept a contract like that. I know I definitely wouldn't.
*moves to lift up my shirt to examine the wounds on my torso, grimacing after a moment and dropping the shirt*
fan-ing-tastic...

Ashley [A] 3 years ago

@Jackal Some people are really ed up in the head. Maybe I don’t need to do anything wrong for some sicko to want me dead.
*I raise an eyebrow as you look back at me*

Jackal 3 years ago

@Ashley I get paid to kill people that do wrong. this isn't just a hobby. and my services aren't cheap. people really want you dead if they ask me to kill you.
*remarks as I glance back at you as if to see if you're following before I look ahead again*

Ashley [A] 3 years ago

@Jackal Says the guy that gets paid to murder people.
*I roll my eyes and follow you*

Jackal 3 years ago

@Ashley one less ungrateful ? bold of you to say for someone who has a damn bounty on them. hell, you've done so much wrong, you don't even know which thing was the cause of your bounty. and now you want to act like you're some sort of hero? because you killed an animal? news flash, you're not. now, if you want to live you'll shut the hell up and follow me.
*glares at you once more as I return to walking the way I was going before*

Ashley [A] 3 years ago

@Jackal *Stops walking as well and turns around to face you*
Maybe I should have let that lion eat you. That would’ve been one less ungrateful in the world. So what do you want me to do now? Help you?
*pauses*
Again...

Jackal 3 years ago

@Ashley *stops walking as I listen to you, rolling my eyes*
you're going the wrong way, . don't make me hunt you down again.
*turns my head to look at you*
if you hadn't noticed, I'm bleeding out. if you want me to commend you, you're not getting it. you took the time to laugh before you helped. and I'll warn you, if I have to hunt you down again, you won't get the chance to run. you won't even see me coming, I can promise you that.

Ashley [A] 3 years ago

@Jackal *My smile fades*
Man, not even a thank you? I thought you’d be more appreciative seeing as I COULD have just allowed that lion to eat you alive. Bye I guess, thanks for not taking my head off with that axe.
*Starts to walk back to the city*

Jackal 3 years ago

@Ashley *ignores your hand as I glare at you, scoffing as I put the gun back in it's holster*
shut up.
*goes to pick up the axe, having dropped it when you'd tackled me back to the ground, returning it to it's place*
you're lucky most of the others are out of town right now.
*speaks in annoyance as I start walking away from you, expecting you to follow me despite not telling you to*

Ashley [A] 3 years ago

@Jackal *Offers you my hand to help you up*
Whether it was or not, I saved your life. So now you’ve gotta save mine. You’re welcome.
*Grins proudly*

Jackal 3 years ago

@Ashley *lets out a shocked scream when you tackle me back down, grabbing my head after hitting it when I fell before jumping a little as I hear the gunshot, blinking in surprise as the lion drops*
what... the ...?
*looks at you before glaring and taking my gun back*
lucky shot..
*mutters under my breath before grunting in pain as the realization of my wounds hits, shifting to carefully stand up*

Ashley [A] 3 years ago

@Jackal , i missed...
*Barely moves out of the way and runs over to you, tackling you back to the ground and sliding down next to you before grabbing your gun from your holster, clicking the safety off and shooting the lion right between the eyes*
*With my heart pounding out of my chest, I watch as the massive animal falls dead to the ground*

Jackal 3 years ago

@Ashley *once the lion is distracted I shove it back enough to get my leg under it, kicking it off before moving to my feet, cursing when I notice it starting to go for you instead*

@Jackal *I literally LAUGH before reaching into my pocket for my switchblade and throwing it at the lion, stabbing it right in the leg*
