Jake let out a huff. He wasn't planning on being in the cave in the
morning anyhow. He would probably be back at his dorm. Or trying to
avoid that guy the most he really can. Yeah...
He frowned, looking down. He had to lie. Since he didn't get meat,
it was different for him. Meat was normal for him. He had to have
it, but eating innocent animals... He couldn't do that! Sure, they
were dead or going to die but... He just couldn't. "Yeah, of
course!"
Noticing her bloody lip, Lance gently cleaned the blood away using
a tissue. "Hey, if you want to help him, I won't stop you." Lance
encouraged. "You just need to say the word and I'll step away."
"I... Dunno how." Bella mumbled, flinching as he wiped away her
blood. She blinked, and looked at Lance. She analyzed his face,
blinking a bit. She swipes hair from her face.
"We could just ask, but that seemed to simple." Lance muttered,
thinking. If Bella wanted to help him, then he would assist her.
"But we do need to get the facts one way or another."
Jack looked up, his eyes flashing from purple to black to every
color imaginable. "H-help meee..." Jack said in Sam's voice.
Incoherent words ran from Jack's mouth, his appendages jerking
randomly, like many puppeteers were fighting for the strings. Jack
reached out toward Lance, his hand giving off a deadly aura.
"W-what do you need help wi-with? Tell u-us what's wrong...!" Bella
cried softly, getting a bit closer to the boy. She blinked,
reaching a hand towards him.
Bella jumped back, and blinked. Her eyes were blown wide as she
replied shakily. "Huh..?! N-no! I could never...!" She spoke
softly, shaking her head rapidly. She felt her eyes prickle with
tears.
Amy didn't question it she knew that he didn't eat meat, but she
didn't want to bug him about it either. So she kept quiet about it.
"I guess we can go back, and go to sleep if you want. Or would you
prefer to do something else?"
He would eat meat, but not animal meat like that. It was awful. He
will be just a mess tomorrow because he didn't get it. It was like
required thing. "I... Think we should get to sleep... Until
sunrise."
"L-Lance! He could d-d-die!!" Bella whimpered, looking up at him.
She had confusion and insecurity floating in her bright eyes as she
looked between the two males.
Death is a salvation to some." Lance explained, gazing sadly at
Jack. "Bella, he's suffering, and he needs our help. We can help
him by taking care of his suffering. It's the least we can do. If
we spend time looking for other solutions, he could die slowly and
painfully, or whatever evil voices he's talking about could snap
him, making his life a living hell." Lance never liked killing, but
this person, if he was one, was asking for their help. Aiding
people was always a top priority for him, even if he never acted
like it was, and if cutting off his head was the only way to solve
it, then Lance would do it, even if it ment that Bella would
probably hate him for it.
He nodded, following behind her quietly. He prowled on all fours
and yawned. He actually was getting tired, since he wasn't... Out
of control. He would get like that if he were around a human-like
of sorts, or other monsters he could find a threat. Anything that
looked mostly human, he would attack, not giving it a second
thought. But with Amy with him, she also helped him with it.
