Ever since Skeleton King was gone the police set an alarm in the Super Robot, but only when there was an emergency. The alarm went off and in less than a heartbeat the hyperforce was in the control room.
"Gibson where's the distress call coming from?" Antauri asked as Gibson started typing and the screen came on showing the area.
"It's coming from Mr.Gackslapers." Gibson said shocked. Chiro ran to his tube everyone right behind him running to the restaurant. When they saw the restaurant ther were3 cop cars and ne ambulence, with a yellow do not cross line. The team walked pass the cop cars and could see past the restaurants window a body coverd over a white blanket. Chiro ducked under the tape and saw the pool of blood and the bloody footprint leading to the counter. There was Jess hot tears falling down talking to a policeman with hr bloody shoes in an evidence bag.
"Jess." Chiro said relieved but also concerned.
"Chiro,thank go your here."Jess cried as he walked up to her and held her tight. She buried her face tohis chest and cried even harder.
"What happened?" Nova asked tears almost coming to her eyes. She grabbed Sparx hand and squeezed gently.
"67 year old Mr. Gackslaper was shot in the head then to the heart, if this young lady was here she could of been killed too."The policean said to the shocked team.
"Jess I'm so sorry." Chiro said holding her tighter.
"You won't be able to get your stuff until we finish here, so you'll need to find a place to stay." The man said as Jess looked at him and nodded slowly.
"She...can stay wih us" Antauri said as the team looked at him shocked but nodded.
"Okay well we'll take the body and be backtomorrow." The cop said walkng out. Jess broke free from Chiro and ran to the cop.
"Wait aren't you gonna tell me when I can have is... funeral." Jess asked bitng her lip.
"Ma'am this was an unusual death, he'll go to the city mourge." He said apologetically.
"I want him buried, not stuck in some drarw to freeze." Jess said furious.
"Then your going to have to tlk to the manager." He said handing her a card.
"Come on Jess lets go." Chiro said grabbing her shoulder. Jess nodded her tears still refusing to stop. They all walked back to the robot in silence until they got to the control room.
"So where's ess gonna sleep?" Sparx asked everyone puzzled.
"She can sleep in my bed, I'll sleep on the floor." Chiro offered. They all agreedbecoming quiet again, until Sparx blurted out his mouth again.
"What about clothes?" Sparx asked. Jess was ignoring the conversation
"I have some baggy sweatpants and a t-shirt." Chiro said yawning. When that was settled they all went to their tubes and were in the bedroom hallway.
"Jess, It'll-" "Otto sometimes sympothy only makes the pain worse." Antauri said interupting Otto. Otto watched Jess enter Chiro's room and put his head down nodding. Jess sat on Chiro's bed and Chiro grabbed a pillow and blanket on the ground.
"I'm losing everyone." Jess cried holding her head.
"No your not." Chiro said sittng next to her holding her hand. She yanked it away.
"What would you know you don't know how it feels to lose someone." She hised. Chiro turned his head to the door showing no emotion. Jess had a sudden pain go through her chest, the anger receding from her.
"Oh my god Chiro I didn't mean it." Jess cried
"I know it's ok goodnight." Chiro said kissing her cheek and got on the floor pulling the blaket over him. Jess pulled he blanket over her and turned, facing away from Chiro. She couldn't believe what she just said, he probablly hated her. Though, Jess still coudn't believe Mr.Gackslaper was really gone, she didn't even know if she would have the guts to have a funeral. The darkness felt like it was swallowing her and she pulled the blanket over her head. It wasn't until 3 in the morning till she got to sleep.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The sun shined through the window that Chiro must of open waking Jess up. She glared at the light and sighed there was nothing good that could make today sunny. Her stomach began to flip and growl, she turned to see a tray of fresh toast, ice cold milk, and a note. Obviouslly Chiro might of just opened the widow recently. The butter was still trying to melt on the steaming bread. Jess rubbed her eyes and read the note.
Jess,
Sorry I woke you up, and I know you want to be alone, but brought you some breakfast. Whenever
you want to come down you can, and if you want I'll come with you when you go to talk to the manager.
I'm honestlly sorry and the team is too.
Love Chiro,
Jess stared at the note for a minute. When she woke up she just felt numb but remembering brought back the tears. She laid the note by her and grabbed a piece of toast slowly eating it. Jess drinked the milk and sat there. Everything was happening so fast for Jess, seeming impossible to take one step at a time. Someone else was controling her life before it even happened so Jess had no sense believing what was going on. Bit by bit her life was falling apart and what was worse was the team would fall down with her. She got up her feet touching the cold metal floor sending a shiver up her spine. The door opened in front of her and she walked down the hall to Chiro's tube. When she came down Gibson was working on an experiment, Antauri was meditating, and the other's were playing videogames. Jess walked up to them and sat by Chiro.
"Morning Jess." Sparx said not taking his eyes off the monitor.
"How are you holding up?" Nova asked worried. Jess simply shrugged.
"You okay?" Chiro asked putting his hand on her shoulder.
"Yeah, and I'll take you up on your offer tagging along to the city mourge." Jess sighed.
"What are you gonna wear?" Otto asked looking at her baggy clothes.
"I'll wear my dress again. I can't look like a slob or else they won't take me seriouslly." Jess yawned still tired. She got up and walked to Chiro's tube again. When Chiros character died he got up and walked toward Antauri.
" Hey Antauri can I talk to you seriously?" Chiro asked sitting in front of him.
" Sure, is something else wrong?" Antauri asked raising an eyebrow.
"Well, remember the night when we were off getting Jess and I talked in my dream saying Jess can't die." Chiro said.
" Yes I remember." Antauri nodded confused.
"Ever since I've had that dream, everynight I keep on getting memories of Jess life that she can't remember." Chiro sighed holding his head.
"How did this start, have you told Jess about this?" Antauri asked shocked.
"During the dream Jess dead mother is sending me the memories...I can't tell Jess about this and neither can you please. Jess mom, Cerina told me I couldn't tell." Chiro pleaded softlly.
"I won't tell Jess... but Chiro the team needs to know."Antauri spoke calmly folding his arms. Chiro nodded then he heard his tube and saw Jess walk up to him with her jacket on.
"Ready?" Jess asked biting her lip. Chiro nodded then looked back at Antauri.
"Antauri tell the team when we leave ." Chiro whispered. Antauri nodded and the two left the robot.
"You sure you want to do this?" Chiro asked as they walked.
"Yeah, Mr.Gackslaper is going to be buried, not stuck in an old city mourge." Jess sighed looking down.
"Do you even have enough money for his funeral?" Chiro asked sternly. Jess stopped in her tracks. Chiro stopped and looked back at her, her fists were clentched shut and tears started falling.
"I'm...gonna...have to...sell the restaurant." Jess stuttered trying hard not to cry.
"Jess you can't do that, that place is your home." Chiro refused grabbing her shoulders.
"Until the orphanage comes and takes me, and they put it for sale. While Mr.Gackslaper lays in a draw to freeze." Jess yelled shaking her head. Chiro was about to argue but, she was right. He also didn't want to fight, that was the last thing she needed. He dropped his hands and they started walking again.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
They were finally their the two doors saying City Mourge Dr. A. Wilson. The door slid open and they saw a counter on the right and a waitting room on the left.
"Stay in the waitting room, I can do this by myself." Jess asked, hesitant Chiro nodded and sat in a chair.
"Excuse me, I'm here to talk to Dr. Wilson." She said calmly. The woman across the counter was working on paperwork.
"Aren't you a little young to die." The woman asked chewing gum.
"Uh, no I need to speak to him about a murder." Jess begged. The woman looked up at Jess and sighed.
"Go up but if he's busy then get out." The woman glared annoyed and went back to her paperwork. Jess walked to an elevator and it opened showing a mirrored elevator. Jess pushed the top button and waited impatientlly, she placed her hands in her pocket and sighed. The elevator gave a ding and made Jess jumped, the door slid open showing a long hallway with a door at the end, a small sign on it. She walked down the hall feeling like the walls were closing in on her. The office though came up to her sooner than expected. Oddly a sudden chill went through her and she took a deep breath and knocked on the door. Someone yelled come in and Jess opened the door. A man sat in a chair writing some paperwork unable to see his face.
"Well come on I haven't got all day." He said annoyed.
"One of the...bodies you have here I would like to be buried." Jess said clutching to the doorknob. His pen stopped writing and he stared at her. He had brown spiky hair, brown eyes and a picture frame by him. Jess gasped in fright and took a step back.
"My Jessica it's been a while." He spoke grimly and grinned.
