"Skye!" He heard the younger girl shout.

Jax quickly stood up. He saw Skye on her stomach, a hole in her upper back.

"Ha... hahaha!" The doctor laughed on. "This situation seems quite familiar doesn't it?! Zack!"

"Damn you! Bastard!" Jax yelled. A bullet flew past his head.

"Ah, Ah, Ah." The man wagged a finger on his free hand. "You're unarmed. Looks like I am calling the shots here, quite literally, if I do say so myself." The man cackled on. "That was such a stupid mistake, Rachel. Pushing him out of the way so he wouldn't get shot. Look where that got you. However, this time you will die by my hand and not that serial killer's."

"J-Jax." Skye muttered weakly. "H-His name is Jax."

"Eh?" The doctor said.

Skye struggled to push herself up. "He is not Zack anymore. He is Jax. A man who doesn't like conflict... he is different from Isaac... they may have the same soul... but they are different people." She let out a small laugh. Blood leaving her mouth as she did. "I know. That doesn't make sense. But they're different. I swear it... you could've been different too, Doctor... but you're still the same dirty rat."

"Damn you. You little bitch!" The man shot the gun again at her, but this time... Eliza stopped it with her arm.

"Eliza...?!" Skye muttered.

"Another shot would kill you. I can't let you die... you're my big sis... and... it will ruin the relationship you and Jax have built..." Eliza muttered. "It hurts... really bad... but it will hurt me more if you die."

Skye was surprised, but then nodded. "I will get out and to the hospital like before..." Skye says. "Jax!"

Jax, who was frozen with shock, was brought back to reality when something was tossed at him. It was a kitchen knife. "This is..." He muttered.

"I grabbed it from the kitchen when the apartment was burning down." Skye says. "I know what I said... but you want to protect me right...?" She gave him a weak smile.

"You want to protect me right...?" 'I know I told myself not to kill anymore... but if it's to protect her... then I'm willing to go that far.'

"Old man, get the girl's out of here! Now!" Jax yelled.

"Not so fast!-" The doctor held his gun up, but Jax stood in front of the other three.

"If you want to get to them. You gotta get through me, first." Jax said with a smile... it was sinister... just like a killer's.

The three were walking down a long corridor. Skye felt weak and fell to the side, holding onto a wall for support.

"Skye!" Eliza says, a look of worry on her face.

"I-I'm okay. I just need a sec. don't worry." She smiled softly. "Worry about yourself... how's your arm?"

"I'm fine. But you could die from that. So I have to worry." Eliza says. She then wrapped one of Skye's arm around her shoulder. "I won't let you die." She says.

"Eliza..." she says with a small sigh. "Fine. Anyways let's continue."

The girls slowly continued to follow the priest ahead of them.

"Reverend Sir, where are we going, exactly?" Eliza asked after a few moments.

"I am guiding you two out of the church. As for myself, I need to grab something." The male says.

"Something...?" Eliza muttered.

"Is it..." Skye already knew she answered her own question, however Eliza was obviously still confused.

"What? What is it?!" Eliza asked.

"I'll tell you later... right now, let's just worry about getting out of here." Skye says. 'I feel weak... but I have to keep going... getting out of here is the top priority.'

"Look at you Isaac! Down on the floor from a little shot to the knee!" The doctor says.

"Shut the fuck up, Danny!" Jax shouted. He immediately stood, which caused a small jolt of pain. No. He can't worry about that. He needs to get at him. Danny can't get Skye. If he gets to Skye, he'll never forgive himself.

So Jax swung his knife at the doctor, aiming for the chest. Unfortunately, he missed by an inch.

"What's wrong Zack? Your aim seems off!-" The doctor got cut off when he got cut on the cheek. "Well, well, well. It seems you got me. But just barely." Morgan grabbed his wrist and threw him to the ground. "You're weak now Zack! Haven't you noticed?! You're new body has made you so easy to kill!"

Jax just coughed. He hacked and coughed. "Be quiet." He says. "No matter what, you won't get to them. I won't let you."

"I should've really shut you up a while ago. You've become so weak and bland." Morgan says. He pulled out his gun. He pulled the trigger and shot at the man's stomach.

"Gah! Dammit!" Jax shouted.

"Now, lets see how man shots to the head and chest you can take before you completely die-"

The doctor was cut off by an arrow going through his chest. "E-Eh?"

Jax was surprised and did his best to pick himself up. "W-What the...?!"

"Don't touch him... don't hurt him any more..." The voice was a girl's. She appeared behind them both, a crossbow in her hand.

"Skye! Why aren't you out of the building?!" Jax asked.

"To make sure you didn't die..." Skye says. "See if he has anything on him..."

Jax nodded, some how, even though his body was weaker, it didn't effect him much. He still had some energy before he would "pass out". He nodded and ripped any clothing, to see if he could find any extra precautions.

Surprisingly, nothing was there, only a few bits of medicine.

Jax took all of it off him and kicked him to the side. "Alright, I got it!" Jax says.

Skye sighed in relief. "Thank goodness..." She mutters, a small smile adorned her face. "Hey Jax..."

"Eh? What is it?"

"Thank you... also I..." before she said anything else she collapsed on the ground.

"Skye?! Skye?!" The man said. He tried to reach her, but his body was strained and he collapsed too. "C'mon... Skye... not yet... don't leave me just yet..." He says, the most he could do was reach his arm out, before he passed out he placed his hand on top of her.

The last thing he could see were flashing lights and sirens ringing in his ears.
