~A/N: Hope you like this. Max, lying in Manticore, reflecting. Disclaimer:
I own nothing. Drats. Curses. nothing. Just 142 pics of Zack.*sigh*~
"This is the heart of a soldier. a leader. a martyr. He was quite a man, your brother Zack."
Her words still echo in my head. Zack. dead. They showed me the footage from the security cameras. He ordered them to bring me back. He told me to fight them, then.
I still hear the gunshot, at night in my dreams. The nights used to be silent before the escape. Now. I hear voices, people: Logan telling me it'll be alright, that bitch Renfro taunting me. Zack telling me to fight.
I do a lot of thinking now, 'cause I can't do much else until I fully heal. Mainly about Zack. The first time I saw him after the escape, he walked into Jam Pony to ask Normal about a job there. He actually called Normal 'Sir' which I thought hilariously funny. And finally, when he told me. he left again. Then he turns up again and ends up turning himself in to Lydecker to save me.
He escaped from Manticore again after months of torture and turned to me for help. We had to find the others, the ones who had been compromised. Tinga needed our help. We managed to get her away, and she and Zack vanished into Canada.
Next time I saw her, she was trying to get back to her husband and kid. She said we could use a third person, but no-one was around. We managed to get to Charlie and Case, but Manticore was on to us. We were trapped in a hallway, with soldiers coming at us, then a figure smashes through a window and takes out the guards. Couldn't see who it was at first, then the sweetest words at that time: "Is this an invite only, or can anyone crash?" Man, was I glad he'd turned up. After that adventure he left again.
The last time I saw him alive was the assault on Manticore.
I can't help wondering sometimes where he is now. Maybe with the Blue Lady, in the Good Place. I hope he is. He deserves it, after looking after all of us for so long. Big Brother.
Wherever you are, Zack, thank you. For everything. For being there when we needed you, for helping us escape to freedom, for looking out for us. and now, for giving me your heart. I'll never forget you. and I will not let your sacrifice be wasted. The next time I take on Manticore, it will be it. The end. Finito. For you Zack, for you. And Jack, Eva, Ben, Tinga, Krit, Syl, Brin. and all the others. For us.
