*Concussion desperately clambers toward the safe house's custom made blast door. A moment later, and it flies off the wall completely, smoke is pouring through the hole, and a large silhouette can be seen through the smoke*

*Concussion draws his tentacles, and walks closer. The shadow seems to be getting smaller- strange...*

*The smoke clears, and a small figure steps in. It is a little girl wearing a striped shirt, long pants and boots.*

Concussion: ncawwww look at you...tiny itty bitty little-

*The little girl swiftly stabs concussion in the thigh with an army knife*

Concussion: *reels in pain* YOU LITTLE SHIT! COME HERE-

*The girl lands her gaze upon him, and immediately, concussion is subdued and mentally weakened.*

Concussion: Wha- what is happening- ngh! why can't I bring myself to get up..

*The mysterious little girl waltzes over to the room where Lavina and Jack are trying to hide Jude in a cupboard*

Lavina: *hisses* What do you want from-

*The girl's gaze once again weakens Lavina, and she can't bring herself to attack*

*Jack quickly shrouds the room in his shadows, nullifying the affect of her mental dampening ability*

Little girl: I don't need my phenomenon to kill you. *draws her knife*

Jack: Bring it midget.

Jude (thinking): Wait- I've heard that voice before-

*Before Jack or the girl can attack, Jude bursts out of the closet*

Jude: LIZ!- DON'T- I'M HERE-

Jack: JUDE WHAT ARE YOU-

*Suddenly, the little girl rushes over to Jude. Jack lunges toward her but stops... Instead of attacking Jude, the girl embraces Jude in a tight hug. Jude falls to his knees, while also embracing her.*

*Jack lowers his shadows, and the whole room is silent besides Concussion's distant wailing, and Jude's soft crying.*

Liz: Jude... I found you- thank god... What made you run away like that?-

Jude: I couldn't live a life of crime and theft anymore Liz... I just couldn't...

*Liz lets go of Jude, and brings concussion and Lavina back to their original mental state, she also removes the knife from Concussion's leg and bandages it up*

Concussion: Bloody hell...

Liz: Yes, very bloody indeed.

Lavina: Are you- Liz?

Liz: Yep! No hard feelings by the way, and besides, that blast door was cheap.

*Liz finishes with concussion's bandages, and walks over to Jude once more. Jude picks her up in his arms and squeezes her.*

Jude: I'm so glad you came...

Liz: I am too Jude, but we have to leave.

Jude: What?!

Lavina: What are you talking about?

Liz: His stress levels have escalated too much, the AAC is most likely on our tail right now. We have to go.
