DISCLAIMER: I DON"T OWN THE CHARATERS.
AUTHOR NOTE:
If you have Read TITLE I DON"T HAVE A TITLE YET than you might not want to read this because it follows TITLE I DON"T HAVE ATITLE YET. FOR U non Freud versed people the id would be the almost but not quite equivalent of the devil on ones shoulder, and the superego would be the angel leaving the ego the person itself. Just quick explanation not exact to the matter, but close.
They drove through the city. Jack looked out the window watching for any trouble. He doubted they would run into some, but this aching feeling inside of dread told him more was to come of his previous endeavourers. He wasn't sure what he was going to do now that he was a free man, in a sense.
He could very easily escape into the well hidden world of what some might call terrorism. It wasn't hard to completely disappear when there was nothing left to hold on to for the past live you lived. Or he could do what he said he would do take down one of the largest international no holds bar crime organizations. Both had their appeal. Jack was a split man in a sense. Freud id and super ego, without the ego. The ego left when he held his dead wife in his arms after that long day, and the thought the superego had left after he watched Kim die, and had to clean her brain matter of his face.
Nina looked over at Jack, she was surprised to see him. Even more surprised that he was even able to move. She asked in a low voice as to not let the driver hear her, "Are you ok?"
Jack smiled at her, "Besides looking awful and being in pain with every breath I take?" He asked quietly.
"Yeah I guess." Nina laughed at his attempt at humor.
"Sure. We got lucky this time." He smiled at her, a genuine smile.
"I'm not so sure about that." She said in a foreboding voice.
"What is the plan now?" Jack asked.
"We are going to take a boat to international waters. Get you a doctor and than figure out what to do next. Where to go."
Jack smiled at her the lack of sleep and pain getting to him. He closed his eye and quickly was plunged into a deep sleep. He awoke with a jolt. He was having a nightmare. Kim with half her head missing, Teri with a hole with blood leaking out of it where Nina had shot her, and a child, a young boy, all were attacking him. Pushing him around asking "Why?" He screamed at them, "Why what? I'm sorry I couldn't protect you. I tried. I'm sorry I failed, but I didn't kill you." Right as they were getting ready to answer he was jolted awake by a hand gently shaking him.
Nina was next to him, "Shh." He gently stroked his sweaty hear, she had been the one gently shaking him, "It was just a dream." She noticed the look of fright in his eyes. She had seen it before. The nights she spent with him before everything went down, he would wake up every now and than screaming in a cold sweat. She was sure it was dreams of what had happened in Operation Nightfall that were haunting him, but he never spoke of it.
She would always put her arm around him and stroke his hair gently till he fell back asleep, they never spoke about it.
Jack wiped the sweat off his face and asked, "How long was I out?"
"About ten minutes. Not that long. WE are almost there. Steve already arranged for a doctor to meet us there."
"I don't need a doctor." Jack snapped angrily grimacing in pain as he moved slightly in the seat.
"Jack shut up. For once in your life don't be stupid. Look at yourself.
One of your eyes is swollen shut, and I can only guess how much damage is under your clothes." She said gently touching his rib cage causing him to flinch away in pain.
The car stopped and the back doors opened. There was a man Jack knew as
James at his door ready to help him out. They all had heard about Jack's
condition and were told to aid him as much as possible.
"Hey Jack." James said excited he had looked up to Jack and followed Jack's every move so that one day he might be able to be as good as Jack had been. "You look like hell."
"Thanks kid. So do you." Jack said smiling as he got out of the car by himself. He was a man of pride and even if it hurt him to move he would walk himself over to the boat and on to the boat without help. He didn't need help he could handle anything.
James walked being Jack ready to help whenever Jack started to fall. He was amazed by his idol even more as he watched him walk onto the boat. James lead him to a room they had set up for the doctor to look over Jack. He left Jack in the room and went to his work.
Nina went directly to the shower. She wanted a shower and she knew Jack would not want her in the room with him as the doctor was examining him.
Jack sat on the small bed that was set up. The doctor looked at him and knew he needed to jack of site to get x-rays and other scans. He did a quick once over and said, "I can't help you here. You could have some internal damage among other things. I could take you to this clinic I run. Your name would never be used or even on paper."
"No." Jack said in pain.
"I can't help you here than sir."
Nina walked into the room ready to ask how Jack was and heard it, "Do it."
"NO." Jack agued.
"Jack do it or I'll have the doctor drug you and than James and the others to carry your sorry a$$ off the boat onto shore."
Jack looked at her challenging her to do it.
"Fine have it your way Jack. Nina called for James and Steven." The two men walked into the room and could feel the tension. Nina ordered them, "Hold Jack down while the doctor sedates him."
They both looked at Nina confused and than went to comply with her order.
Jack saw the doctor pulling out some type of drug in vile he knew would be injected into. "Fine I'll go." Jack said in a low voice.
"That's what I thought. That'll be all guys." Nina smiled at her small victory. "About how long will it take doctor?"
"A few hours." He answered.
"Good make sure you charge everything to Hendrix he said he was footing the bills for this little trip."
"Yes ma'am." The doctor helped Jack off the boat to his car. He thought about all the damage he had seen on Jack in the quick look over, and began to wonder what happened to him that caused this much damage.
