The axis of the moon
Ok so howdy. This is my first fanfic and I might have stolen some things from some marvel comics I read but it's just the monster not the name so I'm just gonna go ahead
Credibility of sorts
Jesse woke up to a brilliant white light. She couldn't remember what had happened ... ever realy. Then she remembered. The friends, the fights, the building, the storm, the sickness, the bomb, the sword and the pig. The island, the chicken. The house, the cat. The desert, the screen. The games, the builders. All of those memories had one common theme. Freedom. Then she remembered why she was there.
The circle, the portal. The monsters and the person. the screaming. The fight, the bomb. The queen. The child. The screams. The shrieks. The desperate cries for help. The sheer horror. The death. The child was what had helped them. The child of death and terror itself. And a cute child at that.
With a grunt the gathered her senses. She was in a almost bleak room, but there were a few telltale signs that it was human enough. No black splattered walls. No intrepid symbols carved into the ground and no obvious technarchy to be seen. The room had a bed, obviously, and a few needles on a table at the end. A hospital room. She began to move her legs out of the red covers. Red. She was inside a redstonia hospital.
Whereabouts out of the way, Jesse began to figure a way out. No windows, no vents, door out of the question. Hiding perhaps? Peering under the bed, she examined the space, and out of habit looking for any protruding red lights. There was space for one small , thin human. How fortunate. Clambering silently under the bed, she heard a door handle twitch. Any untrained ear would not notice, but this was someone of expertise in her own senses. She silently climbed back onto the bed not a moment too late, but she handy closed her eyes in time. Whoever was in the room with her knew she was awake.
"Jesse? I know you're awake, I saw you eyes open." A soft voice split through the silent air. great. Jesse made an effort to be as peaceful as possible, but that was harder said than done, especially when your brain reacts 5X the speed of a normal human. Without meaning to, she twitching with every sound and movement.
The redhead sighed at her foreboding friend. This was going to be hard to explain to Ivor. She sat down at the seat and gently brushed a hand against jesses scarred cheek. The second her hand made contact though, Jesse had grabbed the hand and used it to jackhammer petras entire body onto the bed in her place.
Now sat on the seat, Jesse smirked at their halfwit friend before returning to her thoughts. Petra sat there and accepted it. She didn't want to make a scene, and Jesse had been carful to be gentle, not even slamming her down, but as to lay her down with a one handed touch. This was still the same loving Jesse, but she was also a war hardened soldier who desperately belevied that herself was created to be a weapon. Giggling, Petra decided to make conversation, as ellegaard said a bit of normality would be good for her.
"How've you been these last two years"
"Shit" Jesse replied with a comical tone. She had gained a gruff voice and sounded like she was gargling frogs.
"How so?" Petra was oblivious to the events that had lead to Jesse joining an inter dimensional military movement.
"Oh, you know, being betrayed by your friend, getting stuck in a hell hole and turned into a weaponised animal. Otherwise I've been pretty good , if you count tearing apart no less than three dictatoring Gods." There was an aura of sarcasm which didn't go unnoticed by Petra.
"Oh that sounds pretty co-WAIT A SECOND BETRAYED?"
"Oh yeah. I know I was clumsy but not clumsy enough to fall into a giant portal."
"Well who pushed you"
"It was less of a push and more like a stab and fall" her eyelids were halfway down her eyes in a matter-of-fact way. She was fine with the fact that she was essentially not even near human, mentally and physically.
Petra however was horrified at the fact that one of her own team had killed Jesse. Well not killed but yeah.
Continuing the conversation, Jesse was steering clear of who pushed her. Even when Petra directly asked, she pushed it away like it was no big deal. They continued the conversation until there was a quiet rapp against the door. Jesse heard and bolted upright, whereas Petra squeaked at the sudden movement. Ivor burst into the room with a mass of potions in his arms. He almost dropped them at the sight of a slightly wild eyed Jesse. She was quick to stand up, as Ivor had started to run towards her. Any normal person would have been knocked at the force that he hit her, but Jesse stood tall in the warm hug that Ivor provided, but strangely kept her arms firmly to her sides instead of giving back. Eventually she gathered the courage to place one hand on Ivor's back. The hug broke soon after that.
A speechless Ivor was stood infront of Jesse, looking her up and down twice then thrice over. When he finally chocked some words out it was high pitched and stuttered.
"W-well you ggrew" it sounded almost pained.
