"I really don't doubt that." Sierra said.
"But you never put me through it." She then added. "I just... felt a heaviness, before everything went grey, then black quickly." She added after a moment.
"So... not too bad."

"I really don't doubt that." Sierra said.
"But you never put me through it." She then added. "I just... felt a heaviness, before everything went grey, then black quickly." She added after a moment.
"So... not too bad."
"I guess some part of me was... holding back." Jackson replied.
"Maybe. I can't say, really." he sighed.
"Um... so where am I going?" he asked.
"I need to know where this safe place is." he told her.
"Or... directions, at the very least." he then added.
"Maybe. I can't say, really." he sighed.
"Um... so where am I going?" he asked.
"I need to know where this safe place is." he told her.
"Or... directions, at the very least." he then added.
"Well, you're getting out of here, first." Sierra told him honestly.
"Then we're going to the main hospital in the city." She added. "The morgue, specifically."
"....morgue..." Jackson muttered.
"Appropriate." he said.
"But okay." he muttered further.
With that, he started making his way through the complex, down the hallways, through some doors, and stoning some guards along the way.
Eventually, they were in a room with a sewer grate in it. He forcibly removed it, jumped down, and replaced the grate.
"Now... to the outside word."
"Appropriate." he said.
"But okay." he muttered further.

It took quite awhile before they got to where they were aiming, and Sierra sighed.
"How... much control do you have over that ability of yours now?" She asked him. "I noticed, hell I can feel it now, that it's farther than just your hands." She added after a few seconds.
"Do you have any control over it?"
"Not a lot." Jackson responded, having grabbed the cloak from earlier.
"S'why the longer gloves." he told her.
"They just... pushed and amplified my power." he sighed.
"So... yeah." he muttered.
"My powers... kinda scare ME now."
"S'why the longer gloves." he told her.
"They just... pushed and amplified my power." he sighed.
"So... yeah." he muttered.
"My powers... kinda scare ME now."
"Damn." Sierra commented before sighing.
"I was afraid of that." She added with a light shake of her head.
"I do wish I could help at all, but for the moment, I know I cannot." She then said. "Perhaps later, but for now? I know I cannot. Regardless, when I have my own body again, I can see what I can do to help."
"All right." Jackson replied.
"Yeah, sure." he said.
They then made their way to the hospital, and started to head to the morgue.
"So.... how's this gonna work?" he asked.
"You gonna... go ahead and give someone a warning or something?"
"Yeah, sure." he said.

"So.... how's this gonna work?" he asked.
"You gonna... go ahead and give someone a warning or something?"
"Good idea." Sierra commented.
"I'll meet you there." She then said before vanishing from where she was. He couldn't feel her in his head any longer, and it felt... far emptier than he expected it to, as well.

She appeared in the morgue and, as was usual, left a handprint on the board to let him know that she was there.
"............" Jackson was silent for a moment.
"Right..." he mumbled.
"That's... hm. Lonely." he commented to himself.
-
The male had just finished with something, when he looked over towards the handprint.
"Back so soon?" he asked.
"There's a body over there." he told her, gesturing to one under a sheet.
"Right..." he mumbled.
"That's... hm. Lonely." he commented to himself.

Sierra made her way over and took it as she was basically told. Once she was up again, she just looked to the man who had made his way over.
". . . I'll be right back." She told him before geting to her feet and leaving the room. She made her way down the hall toward where Jack was.
"Hey, come on. You need... to be cleaned up." She said, holding a hand out.
"And I know he'll let you."
Jackson looked at Sierra and her new body, and nodded.
"Yeah." he replied.
"I do." he said, slowly accepting her hand.
When he did, he was silent for a moment, and stared at them.
"...been a while..." he mumbled.
"Been a real long while since anyone touched me, and it wasn't violent." he admitted.
"And... yes... I need to be cleaned." he agreed.
"Yeah." he replied.
"I do." he said, slowly accepting her hand.

Sierra was silent for a moment before smiling softly.
"You know I won't harm you. Ever." She told him.
"At least not willingly." She added with a light chuckle.
"Come on, let's head in." She added before heading down to where she had been, the room, pulling Jackson along with her gently. Once they were into the room, she just chuckled.
"Look who I found in the hall." She told the one there
The man looked over towards them, and smiled.
"You must be Jackson." he said.
"I am." Jackson replied.
"Good to see you're finally free of that hell." the man replied.
"Yeah... yeah, it really was hell." Jackson agreed.
"Now. Forgive me for being forward, but... do clean yourself up." the man then told her. "You smell worse than some of the bodies I handle."
"You must be Jackson." he said.
"I am." Jackson replied.
"Good to see you're finally free of that hell." the man replied.
"Yeah... yeah, it really was hell." Jackson agreed.
"Now. Forgive me for being forward, but... do clean yourself up." the man then told her. "You smell worse than some of the bodies I handle."
"That's why I brought him in." Sierra said with a light laugh.
"I figured you could help him out with that. Also... do you happen to have a pair of gloves he could borrow?" She asked after a moment.
"If not, I can go buy some, I think I still have some money in the box I keep here." She added
"I have plenty of clothing here." he responded.
"Gloves included." he said.
"Shower's down the hall, first door to the left." he went on.
"Towels are in there." he finished.
"Right. Thank you." Jackson replied, before nodding to them and leaving the room.
"........finally saved him, huh?" the man then asked Sierra.
"Gloves included." he said.
"Shower's down the hall, first door to the left." he went on.
"Towels are in there." he finished.
"Right. Thank you." Jackson replied, before nodding to them and leaving the room.
"........finally saved him, huh?" the man then asked Sierra.
Sierra just laughed.
"I told you I would." She told him simply.
"Did you double me?" She asked.
"I told you I would. And I always follow through on what I say I will do."
"Indeed." the man replied.
"Congratulations." he told her.
"You brought him back from the brink." he said.
"...so what now?" he asked her.
"You've saved him. Where do you go from here?"
"Congratulations." he told her.
"You brought him back from the brink." he said.
"...so what now?" he asked her.
"You've saved him. Where do you go from here?"
Sierra just sighed.
"I'm going to probably see if I can destroy that group, that organization. Everyone should be able to live freely, without fear like there is now." She told him simply.
"I know it won't be easy though."

"I agree with your sentiment." he responded.
"And yeah, it WON'T be easy." he said.
"Their power and influence is so ingrained and deep-rooted." he sighed.
"They may be too big to take down now." he lamented.
He then looked like he was thinking about something, and made his way to a chair, sitting down in it.
