Chapter 10: Fimilar Strangers
Tony explained to Michelle what happened when he had came in that morning. Michelle sighed heavily after knowing full well that Tony wouldnt leave Jack that night. She was defeated, and decided to stay with him. They fell asleep in the chairs that night. Tony awoke early the next morning, to find Jack had awoken before him again and was hard at work again to try and get the restraints off. Michelle was sleeping sounding in the other chair.
"Morning..." Tony yawned, looking at his watch which read 7am. Jack glanced at him, then edged away to the other side of his bed slightly. Tony raised an eyebrow, confused by this action.
"Whats wrong?" He asked. Jack ignored him and went back to trying to get his arms free.
"Jack?" Tony asked thinking maybe Jack didnt hear him. Jack ignored him still. Tony sighed heavily, moving towards Jack placing his hand on Jacks' shoulder. Jack jerked away from him, sending him a brief cold glare, then went back to what he was doing.
"Jack stop it they arent coming off" Tony said in a concerned way, he definitly didnt want Jack to hurt himself again. Jack continued to give him the cold shoulder.
"Please Stop It Jack, Your going to Hurt yourself again" Tony begged with him, grabbing his hands gently making him stop. Jack then gave him another harsh glare with the hint of hurt in his expression.
"Dont Touch me Tony" He hissed. Tony didnt let go. Jack continued to glare at him with the 'dont fuck with me' stare, the ones he is so good at giving, but Tony didnt back down.
"Let Go of Me!" Jack nearly shouted at him.
"Stop pulling against the restraints and I will" Tony said simply. Jack cursed in chinese under his breathe, and relaxed his limps again. Tony let go of his hands smiling on the inside for the small victory. Jack adverted his attention else were, ignoring Tony again. Tony looked to the floor then to Michelle who had just woken up, propably during the middle of that little conversation.
"morning Jack.." Michelle said standing up and walking over to the bed, by Tony. Jack looked to Michelle and smiled weakly, followed by a few words in chinese.
"I think we should still get a translater for you Jack..." Michelle commented, and suggested. Jack looked to her again not exactly sure what she had said.
"Tony Im gonna go get one, so we dont have any misunderstandings" Michelle said then left the room. Jack looked at the ground off to the side of the bed opposite of where Tony was sitting. Silence fell in the room.
Michelle called CTU and requested for a chinese translater. They said the translater would be there in an hour or 2 tops. When she hung up the phone she noticed Kim and Chase were making their way towards her.
"Good Morning Michelle" Chase smiled, Kim also greeted her. Both were anxious to see Jack, Michelle could tell that from plain sight.
"Just a few things before you go in, Jack doesnt remember much English, he can only remember a few words, Im getting a chinese translater down here which should be here in an hour or so" Michelle prepped them.
"Also you must be gental, hes in a very fragile state of mind right now, and is having trouble trusting people again..." Michelle Finished the slide the door open for Kim and Chase to enter. Silence was in the room. Tony was down at his hands as if he had done something wrong and Jack was looking somewhere else, trying to ignore Tony.
"Jack..." Michelle got his attention as he glanced at the new comers. They looked fimilar to him but he couldnt place names to their faces.
"Dad!" Kim went over to him and was about to hug him, but Jack cowered away by the sudden advancement. He stared fearfully at Kim. Kim felt a sting of hurt almost then pulled back.
"Im so glad your okay" Kim smiled weakly. Chase just stood by with Michelle. Jack scanned her, trying to figure out who it was, she did seem offly fimilar to him but he couldnt place a name. He asked who she was in chinese, only to be slammed with silence. He then kicked himself mentally, for thinking they might know chinese. But so far none of them had, he sighed in frustration.
