Maya heard Angel's screams as the last injector of eridium was disconnected from Angel. It was over right then and there. Angel, Handsome Jack's daughter and catalyst, was dead.
"What kind of monster would do this to their own daughter?" Lilith asked painfully.
"The kind that doesn't deserve to live." Roland replied. It was the plan that only Roland helped defeat Control Core Angel, but Lilith came in half way into the fight. A few minutes later Roland tried to get the vault key but, got shot in the chest by Jack, who had teleported behind Roland.
"Roland!" Maya and Lilith yelled at the same time. Maya could tell Lilith was about to charge at Jack, but she guessed what would happen. Right when Lilith was about to charge, Maya pushed Lilith away yelling, "Lilith! Get back!" Which surprised the other vault hunters.
"Hmm. Not the siren I wanted, but hey, at least this way there aren't as many vault hunters to interfere! I'll charge the vault key, and I have one of the vault hunters do it for me!" Handsome Jack laughed, as he controlled Maya's powers with a collar. Maya knew what this meant, and the worse part was that she was going to charge the Vault Key with a substance feared by most people of Pandora, Eridium. To Maya there was something constricting her neck. Then Jack teleported himself and Maya. That's when Maya feared what was going to come while under Jack's captivity.
Back at the Crimson Raiders base in Sanctuary, everyone wasn't sure what to be more surprised about: The fact that Roland and Angel were still alive because Maya managed to do a double Res with her Phaselock, or that the group of vault hunters went from five people to four people.
"Alright then, anyone got a bright idea on how to rescue Maya?" Axton asked everyone, and surprising enough, Angel was there as well.
"I really don't know how... if only I wasn't so angry about Roland's death. Or, because of his death before being Resed by Maya." Lilith said, feeling miserable about what happened to Maya.
"We all understand that whatever Jack was planing with you Lilith it ended with Maya being the victim instead." Roland told everyone. "Angel, do you have any ideas on what Jack will do to Maya?" He asked Angel, whose white wings were gone because eridium wasn't being pumped into her anymore.
"All that I know is that Jack will spend his time trying to build Maya's tolerance to eridium before having her charge the Vault Key. Although that could take a long time unless he lets Maya exercise her powers." Angel told everyone. "I told you guys not to bring Lilith and she came anyways. But I didn't think Maya would be his new catalyst instead of Lilith. I should have told you don't bring a siren completely." Angel said, thus not surprising everyone about Jack's true intentions.
"So then what do we do?" Salvador questioned everyone in his thick accent.
"Truly the question/ Yet what is the true answer/ Maya is not done." Zer0 stated, keeping his haiku speaking pattern.
"He's right. Maya's not done for! She'll never be done for! I know Maya, and she never gives up no matter how bad the situation is!" Gaige yelled out. The red-haired teenager was most affected by Jack capturing Maya due to the bond of the Siren and Mecromancer being the only two girls and both having amazing powers used to defeat many bandits.
"Alright amigo! We get it! You're sound as affected of Maya's capture as I was by Bloodwing's death!" Mordecai yelled out at Gaige. Surprisingly he had not departed to Moxxi's yet.
"OK then." Roland said trying to get the yelling to stop. "We really do need a plan to rescue Maya. After all, she is one of the Vault Hunters."
The other Vault Hunters looked at each other for a few seconds then nodded in agreement.
"Good. Now let's see how we can make things work." Angel said, and that's when the plan making begun. Little did they know the troubles that would befall Maya very soon.
