"How did she go?" I asked, standing next to the bed of my mother, who had the blanket placed over her to cover her.
"One of the staff members added more of a dose than what she was supposed to, said she didn't even remember doing it, but she was caught on camera." The doctor said, with me looking at him, my eyes already red from tears, but now of anger. "She-"
"I'm pressing charges." I interrupted, with him nodding and walking away with a police officer. Looking at my mother as she was taken away, I made a fist and threw a punch at the wall, but stopped at the last second, knowing that if I did this, I would be in trouble my self.
Later that night
Sitting on a bus, I had my head leaned back, feeling like the world had just taken a shit on me. As we turned, I heard the driver grunting, with me looking at him with a raised eyebrow. Standing up as I saw him lose control of the bus, I rushed up to the front as I was the only one on. Grabbing him, I moved him out of the seat and placed him on the ground, with me taking a seat and stepping on the breaks. Seeing us coming up to a homeless man, who was sleeping at the bus station with a dog, I closed my eyes as I waited for impact. We hit, with me breaking the steering wheel in the process.
Looking up, I saw that we didn't hit them, and I saw Clark pulling himself out of the huge dent in the bus. "Go!" I said, hearing people approaching, with him taking off. Checking up on the old man, I saw that he was passed out. "Well, better than dead." I muttered, picking him up and kicking the doors opened, where I then stepped out as a group of people started crowding around us. "Call 911!" I called out to the first person who approached, with me setting the old man down as she pulled out her phone.
The next day
Getting out of my car, I started making my way to the school, but a man stepped in front of me. He didn't work for the school, and I hadn't seen him around town, but I knew him some how. He looked English, by the way he walked and held him self. "So, we finally meet." He said, rubbing his hands together.
I looked behind me, but saw no one. "I think you got the wrong guy." I said, looking back at the man.
"Oh, well I think its a girl I was looking for, but I would recognize you anywhere, Jessica." He said, with me crossing my arms.
"Jessica? I'm a guy, don't you know how of an idiot-"
"Quiet!" He commanded, with me shutting my mouth against my own will. I tried talking, but my jaw wouldn't move. "I know that you're not Jessica, but you will do just fine." He said with a nod. "Now, smile!" He said, with me smiling for him. "Never mind, Jessica had a better smile." He said, with me losing my smile. "Come now, we have work that needs to be done!" He said, with him entering my car with me following him.
Later
"There it is." The man said, with me following behind him as we walked into a garage in Metropolis. "My car is there, go get it for me!" He said, pointing to a car that was locked up.
Walking over to it, I got a flash of the man with Jessica and Trish. "Put a bullet in your head!" He said as he passed Trish with her aiming the gun at her self. I watched as Jessica fought Trish to prevent her from shooting her self.
She ended up removing a bullet from the gun and started hitting her self with it, until Jessica took the bullet and placed it in her mouth. "Its in your head, no need to continue!" Jessica said, letting Trish mouth go, where Trish spat out the bullet.
Reaching the gate, I ripped the gate off, with me grabbing the cars bumper. "Got it." I called, realizing how to get around his power.
"Bring it here!" He yelled, with me smirking.
"Oh, I'll bring it all right." I said, gripping the bumper and tossing the entire car behind me, smacking the man with it. I watched as he got pinned by the car, with him leaning against the hood. Walking over to him, I saw him spitting out blood. "Kilgrave." I said, with him looking at me.
"Help... Me!" He said, holding his hand out to me, with me looking at it.
"Help you... By ending your suffering." I said, shocking him as I started smashing his head into the car hood over and over and over again until he was dead. Backing away from the car, I took a deep breath, where I started laughing. I had done what Jessica couldn't, I had beat him, by killing him with his own command.
Then it dawned on me.
I killed him.
Stopping my laughing, I started pacing back and forth, unsure of what to do now that I had killed him. Hearing footsteps, I turned to see a women in a black leather coat and a white tank top, looking just like my sister, but older, looking at us. She looked at the body, then me. "Please tell me that you didn't just-"
"I did, and you." I said, walking up to her, with her tensing up. "Jessica?" I asked, with her looking me over. "Do you know who I am?" I asked, with her looking at me confused.
"No... Should I?" She asked, with me shacking my head as walking past her to the office. "Hey, I'm talking to you!" She yelled, running up to me and grabbing me by my arm. I yanked my arm free and tossed her forward at the same time, watching as she hit the wall. "Didn't see that coming." She said, sitting up and looking at me. "You're like me... another freak?" She asked, with me glaring at her.
"I'm not just any freak, mom." I said, her eyes widening. "You didn't know about us, did you?" I asked, walking forward as she stood up. "You were out hunting that man!" I said, pissed that she didn't know that we existed. Making my way over to the office, I started smashing the computers.
Later
Pulling up to my place, I put the car in park. "So, this is your place?" Jessica asked, sitting in the passenger seat, looking at the place. "Surprised that this place isn't a dump like every other house of mine." Jessica said, with me looking at her.
"You're sure no one is going to find out about Kilgrave?" I asked, with her nodding.
"He was pronounced dead, so legally, you cant get in trouble for his death." She said, with me looking back at the house, seeing the lights were on. "You left the lights on." She said, stepping out and making her way to the house.
"No, no I didn't." I muttered as I stepped out and made my way to the house after shutting the car off. Walking in after Jessica, I watched her making her way to the kitchen, where she started going through the fridge. "No Alcohol." I said, with her closing the door with a sigh. "Oh, and one more thing." I said, taking my coat off and tossing it onto the couch. "We have a guest who likes to make her self at home at times." I said, with us looking at the living room, with us seeing Chloe standing there with a look of shock.
"A guest?" Jessica asked as she made her way over to me and leaned against the wall, looking Chloe up and down. "Well, you going to introduce yourself?" She asked, with Chloe looking at me.
"Chloe, this is my mother, Jessica Jones." I said, with Chloe blinking as I said that. "Mom, this is Chloe Sullivan... a complicated thing in my life." I said, with Chloe looking at Jessica then me.
"I'm sorry... Complicated?" Chloe repeated, with me nodding. "What's that supposed to mean?" She asked, crossing her arms.
"It means, that he sees you as a person of interest." Jessica said, with us looking at her. "What, I always called my one night stands complications." She said with a shrug.
"Great, now there's two of them." Chloe said, with us looking at her. "Were you with her instead of at school, and how did you find her exactly?" She questioned, crossing her arms, with me looking at Jessica.
"Well, actually, she found me." I said, crossing my arms. "She was tracking Kilgrave, the man who I saw in one of my visions. He found me, learned of what I was some how, and planed on using me the same way he used her. She's been hunting him this entire time and didn't even know we existed."
"He is also gone, and I know that he wont be back after the beating he took." Jessica said, looking at me once she said that. "I'll stay the night, but in the morning, I'll be gone." She said, making her way upstairs and entering one of the few rooms.
"Do you trust her?" Chloe asked, with me shacking my head. "Good, because this doesn't seem right. She just ups and finds you, Kilgrave knowing who you were, its all confusing." She said, with me looking at her.
"You're telling me, I don't want her here." I said, looking at the picture on the wall. "She was my mother, not Jessica. She's just the bank... I'm referring her to being a place where people would drop off sperm to, you know, the sperm bank." I said, walking over to the couch and sitting down, with Chloe sitting next to me.
"I get that, but are you ok?" She asked, with me pulling her into a hug and laying down with her on top of me, confusing her. "You never act like this, somethings wrong!" She said, trying to push herself away.
"She died yesterday." I said, with her stopping. "My mom that is, and as far as I know, I will lose the house and everything else as I'm not old enough to have my own place. I don't even think I'll still be in Smallville, let alone Metropolis." I said, with Chloe wrapping her arms around me.
"I know a place where you can stay." She said, with me passing out soon after she said that.
The next day, school
"Mr. Kent was arrested for murder!" Chloe said as she ran up to me, stopping me as I turned to her.
"Are you sure?" I asked, caught off guard.
"Positive, but I have a feeling that it isn't true!" She said, with us walking. "Mr. Kent, from what I have gathered so far, had a fight with a man at the Beanery the day prier, only it wasn't the same person who was killed. I got a description on him, and turns out that he's a detective from Metropolis. He's not a good guy as he was the one to over see Lex when he did something bad and made it where Lex was innocent." She said, with me rubbing my face.
"So, this guy is a dirty cop." I said, looking at her. "What else did you dig up?" I asked, taking a picture that she passed over to me.
"Turns out, he knows Jessica, mortal enemies." She said, with me handing it back to her. "Few nights ago, she was spotted at the hospital with him, the same one your mother was at." She said, with me stopping as that was in the time frame of her death. She showed me a picture of her and Kilgrave together, and it appeared that she was chasing him, but something in the darkness of the picture.
"What's with the lights in the background?" I asked, pointing to the back of the photo.
"Everyone there said everything was fine, nothing was out of the ordinary, but they were all weird about it, like they were programed or something." She said, with me nodding and looking at picture.
"I need a flashlight." I said, confusing her.
"That's not going to make it visible." She said, with me nodding my head.
"In most cases, yes, but something is off about this." I said, with me taking her flashlight and placing the picture on top of it as I turned it on. We watched as another person became visible, shocking her as it looked like a samurai girl with a skull face on. "Chloe, meet my sister, my twin." I said, remembering the armor she wore when we connected to each others mind. "She's hunting Jessica." I said, with me handing it back to her.
"Sister, Twin, what else haven't you told me!?" She questioned as we walked into our class.
"A lot that isn't making since." I said, with her sitting next to me. "Take for example, me having visions of Jessica's past, I wasn't the only one, and it means something triggered it. If I can find out the trigger, then I can put everything together." I said, with the bell ringing. "I'm sure Jessica is going to bump into Lex later, seems like the thing that she would do." I said, pulling out my book and getting started.
Later, Metropolis
"I cant believe that you dragged me out here to follow both Lex and Jessica." Chloe said as we hid behind a building not far.
'Well, I'm surprised that she hasn't tried to kill him yet.' I thought, looking at the guards. We watched as a bag was tossed out, with Jessica rushing in without a second thought. 'She's got a good heart, I'll give her that.' I thought, with us staying put as there was gun fire. I knew Chloe didn't see it, but I did. I watched Clark run as fast as he could back home.
"There's Jessica!" Chloe said, pointing her out as she had stepped outside, looking around. Jessica started running in the other direction, with me grabbing Chloe before she could move. "What are you doing, she's getting away!" She said, but I pointed to the top of the building, with her looking at it as well.
"She's not, because she's got her." I said, looking at her. "Come on, this no longer involves us." I said, walking away as I knew what was about to happen, and I didn't want to get involved in that mess.
"And you're not curious on what she is going to do? How can you trust someone who you have never met, or know for that matter, to follow after Jessica, she could be out to kill her!" Chloe said, with me turning to her.
"She is after answers, if she wanted her dead, she would be dead." I said, looking away from her. "I want the same answers, so I'm sure that she will pass the message along." I said, leaving it at that and walking away.
The next day
"And as you know, the child services system is going to place you in foster care until you can get put with a family that will accept you, or when your old enough, can live on your own." The lady said as she and a few others sat across from me. We were in a court room, with a bag of my things not far. "According to your mothers file, she had no relatives, so there is no one you can stay with. Your father is unknown, presumed dead-"
"Can you stop." I said, with her looking up from the papers and at me. "You are going on about how I'm alone-"
"Because you are." She interrupted, placing her pen down. "I mean that as in blood, but soon enough you will have another family, one that will love and support you-"
"And he will." I heard, with us turning to the door, with me seeing Gabe Sullivan and someone else that I didn't know, and judging by the way he looked, he was a lawyer. "As of three hours ago, Gabe Sullivan has been given full custody of Dakota here." The man said, with him walking over to the seat next to me and sitting down. "He has the paperwork filled out, and just needs a few signatures, mainly yours and his." He said, placing a file down and handing it to them.
"That is, if Dakota wants to live with the Sullivan's." The lady said, looking up at me, with me looking at Gabe.
"Better than the system." I said, giving him a nod.
