Who the Hell Are You?

As Jack lay on the ground he felt his life coming to an end as the heat from the magma coming off in waves across his newly bare face after Lilith used her Siren powers against him. Darkness began clouding his vision.

He couldn't believe this was it. That this was the ending he got for trying to save the world, let alone Pandora and soon he would be nothing but a distant memory.

As this last thought was slipping away, something came into his line of blurred vision. A red light surrounded him, orb-like even, and it frightened him. He thought the Siren bitch had come back to finish off his last final moments and he was more than vulnerable.

Instead, he started to feel...better.

"Are you alright? Did you open this Vault?" A woman's voice asked. It was small and naive sounding.

Jack opened his one good eye slowly to see the woman who was saving his life...and she was beautiful. She had long red hair that flowed passed her shoulders, reminding him of fire. She also had bright pink colored eyes and of coarse, to top it off, brightly glowing red tattoos.

Of freaking coarse she was a Siren.

Jack scowled at her. "Of coarse I'm alright, you're healing me aren't you? And yes I did open the Vault." He didn't tell her the part about how he used Lilith to do it but hey, he did most of the work.

The Siren nodded and smiled before really looking at his face. "How did you get it open? Where is the Siren that helped you?" Jack raised an eyebrow. "How do you know I had help?" The corner of her mouth turned up a little as she gently lowered him to the ground within her Phaselock, his body almost fully healed. She pointed to his face. "You have been marked with the seal."

This made Jack look down. He had forgotten his mask was taken from him and it made him feel so naked, less than nothing. He hated his real face ever since he had tried opening the Vault on his own. It's why he made the mask in the first place dammit! Now it was gone and this beautiful woman was looking at him with pity. It really pissed him off.

"Stop staring." He said coldly. It wasn't right for him to be this way after she saved his life and he knew that but he just couldn't help how angry he felt.

"I'm sorry. How are you feeling?" She asked, her eyes big and bright. She removed her Phaselock as Jack began standing on his own. "Not dead...thanks for that." He began wiping the dirt and filth off of his clothing...or at least trying to. He was definitely burning this outfit.

"Good! Do you have a name?" The Siren smiled. Jack couldn't help but think how strange she was. Did she not get out much? Wait..."How did you find me?" he asked, eyes lowering. Suspicion wasn't foreign to him and trust didn't come easily after everything he'd been through but of coarse you'd be suspicious too when you're the CEO of a company like Hyperion and half the planet is trying to kill you.

"I uh...live here. Well, thanks to you, lived here. Now I can come and go as I please and I'd much rather be going." It was then that she saw the Erudian creature laying dead in the magma, a sad look crossing her face. She kissed her palm and placed it on the creature's cheek. "Goodbye,old friend. You're free now."

Jack felt his heart strings tug a little. What was wrong with this girl and how could she make him feel...sympathy? She was a Siren for fuck's sake and yet she was one of the nicest creatures he'd ever met.

"What is your name, Kiddo?"

She turned back around and beamed her brightest smile at him. "Oh sorry! I'm Rose."

It was then that Jack realized that this entire time they'd been talking...she hadn't been wearing any clothing. He became all too aware when her breasts started bouncing as she came running back over to him and he quickly turned his gaze to the ceiling.

He started taking off a few of his layers of clothing before finally getting to his Hyperion yellow t-shirt, which he threw over his head and at her, his white tank top tight against his muscles. "Hurry up and put this on."

Rose caught the shirt and blinked before gasping with excitement. "Thank you!" It was snug against her curves but fit just enough to cover all of the important parts and that's what mattered, though it did nothing to calm Jack's newly growing erection he felt the moment he realized how exposed she was. He was a man after all.

He started heading for the exit, a skipping Rose coming up right behind him. This was going to be a long trek back.
