Jason snarled from his chair of chains, his mind completely gone now. There wasn't a flashback where he came back to them nor was there even a hint of recognization when Ashley walked in the room. They stared at each other and he growled hatefully but that was it. No chirps or whistles, no tilt of the head. Just glares.
"This is weird." Jess whispered as Jason pushed slowly on his chains. His eyes were hidden but they could feel the bloodlust radiate off him. "Its like he's a totally different person."
"I agree with ya there blondie." Freddy grunted giving Jason the stink eye. "He'd probably tilt his head rather than glare in this situation. Dumb prick."
Jason hissed as he jerked against the spike collar. Jig winced at the blood that ran down his collar yet Jason seemed uneffected. Infact, he barely even flinched. He just glared and hissed as he stamped his foot angrily. He hated them, he wanted them all to die. Yet even so they crowded around him, gawking like a bunch of parrots at a color show. He hated that too.
"We'll have to put him somewhere he can't get out of." Hannibal said glancing sadly at Ashley's blank expression. She didn't meet his eyes. "In a cage or celler perhaps."
"I've... mortified the basement. We could put him there." Jig suggested also looking the young blonde. She didn't look at him either even as he cleared his throat. "What do you think Ashley? What is your opinion?"
"Let him go." came the flat response.
"Pardon me?" Jig's mouth dropped just as Freddy straightened.
"Let dumb ass go?" he frowned down at her empty stare. "Are you freakin' serious?"
"You wanted my opinon." she said turning her eyes to his. "That was it."
"If we let him go he'll kill us." Jess reasoned. "He's too dangerous to go free."
"He's dangerous no matter where he goes."
"She has a point." Tashi sighed. She glanced at Jason and he snorted at her. "Perhaps a bargain?"
"With what? Shoes?" Freddy fumed giving her a wave of his hand. "We don't have anything the bastard wants! Hell I doubt I'd want half this crap."
"Jason." Ashley stepped closer to him causing him to stiffen. A loud hiss and the moaning chair answered back. "I want you to listen to me one last time."
Jason's snarls quieted as she leaned in to him. They were almost nose to nose when her eyes softened and she gave him a pained smile. The whole kitchen went quiet as the small blonde looked into the black holes of the mask. She couldn't see his eyes but he could see hers. So despite the hurt she gave him her best of smiles as she spoke in a gentle tone.
"Our link is gone so you probably don't remember me." The words shocked the group. It was gone? "Even so I need you to listen to me for a bit. If you make a promise with me, I'll let you go and you can make the forest behind this house your home. But if you break that promise you'll hurt your Mom. She didn't raise you a liar or a coward."
"Promise that you don't kill us or anybody that lives here. In return we won't go back there unless we're willing to die for what we're after. Do you understand?" Her voice cracked a little as she tried to smile. Jason fell silent before growling and bowing his head. The light hit the top of his eye hole and his eye revealed his thoughts. It made her heart pain and everybody else shudder.
I'll kill you for this. A solid promise. She looked him in the eye and held back her emotion. Her back straightened and her breath held.
"I said promise not glare." She snarled as she bared her teeth at him. He seethed at her but she didn't back down. He growled as he bowed his head again but she glared stubbornly.
"Don't think me stupid just cause of my hair. I said promise. That bowing isn't anything but a freakin' trick. Say you swear on your Mother's grave and you'll go free."
A furious shriek and Jason slammed his feet into the ground, roaring as he strained against his binds. No backing down. No fear. She glared at him through tears.
"I said promise you god damn zombie!" She screamed stamping her own foot as tears streamed down her face. Jason stilled as he heaved in powerful breaths. His fury took the form of quivers as he spat at her. She didn't yield.
"Hey princess." Freddy said gently touching her shoulder. "He's mute. He can't talk."
"That's where your wrong." She growled back. Her blue eyes flashed as she sneered down at the 'mute'. "Isn't that right Jason? Now swear dammit!"
Jason glared at her as his eyes narrowed into a cold glare. His jaw flexed as a low hiss escaped between his teeth.
"I swear."
