Chapter 13
Jade was running through the park, the Devil's right she had to do it this, now. Did she want to, no of course not, but it's just not possible to hold back anymore.
"I never thought I'd actually have to do this, but I guess now's the right time. Right time, yeah right, bullshit! I don't want to do this! This is your entire fault Zyon! I'll never forgive you for any of this! And I'll tell you that the second I find you, and believe me I know exactly where I'll find you."
Jade kept running until she found she made her way to a cliff at the end of the park, and who was sitting there, Zyon, his back was facing her.
"I had a feeling you'd be coming Jade." Zyon said, not turning around.
"You've gone way too far this time." Jade stated.
"Have I Jade? Well, you'd be surprised how far I've had to go to get your attention these days. No let me rephrase that, I've been trying to get your attention for years, but nothing has worked until now." Zyon spat.
"You're an asshole, you know that? You hold a grudge for something I had no control over as a child, and you don't listen to me, you don't even bother to hear what I say. You were supposed to be my best friend!" Jade yelled.
"Well you know what Jade, maybe I didn't want to listen; and you I think I deserve the throne more than you do, you were away from hell for the longest time, so how much more than you know about it than me?" Zyon questioned.
"It's not about who knows the place better Zyon, it's about what you've done. Look at what you've done to the citizens, to the current ruler, and to the girl who's supposed to be your best friend. Do you think they'd want you as the new ruler after all of that shit; and you knew I never wanted to be the heir. I mentioned to you about a million fucking times that I didn't want it!" Jade exclaimed.
"That doesn't mean that you're not going to accept it though does it; and tell me what exactly have I done? Zyon questioned.
"Well, let's see, from what I heard, you blown up buildings, terrorized citizens in general, and stole things that weren't yours, and all because you didn't get what you wanted. You forced me out of my home for ten years, and you know what, I admit when I saw your mark on the wall, I was actually kind of happy. You were my best friend, why'd you do this?" Jade yelled.
"You know why you were chosen as the heir Jade, because of what my father did. He betrayed the Devil, and nobody wanted his son to be the next ruler of Hell because of that." Zyon exclaimed.
"That's not true, I even asked the Devil that, but in the end, Father chose who he thought was best for the job, and you knew I didn't want it and still you turned on me and tried to kill me, it's your fault that I was sent away!" Jade yelled charging at him with her sword.
Zyon pulled out his bow and an arrow and fired it right at her. Jade dodged it, and swung right at him again, but she missed. He went right at her again and managed to hit her right in the leg with his bow. Jade knelt on the ground in pain.
"You know what Jade; I'm starting to think that maybe the Devil was wrong on deciding who to choose. I think we're starting to see who the better fighter is." Zyon taunted.
"Shut up! I didn't want to do this but you leave me no choice. I'm sorry and you'll be glad to know, I'll regret this forever." Jade declared sadly.
Before Zyon could even react the quick sword got to him and he was one the ground, dead. Jade just stood there for a couple of seconds her face completely emotionless. She picked up her phone and dialed the palace.
"Hello?" The Devil's voice said on the other end of the line.
"It's done." Jade stated.
"Is it?" He questioned.
"Yes, so I hope you don't need me to do anything else because you won't be seeing me for a while." Jade said before hanging up.
Then she started to cry.
"I'm sorry." Jade whispered before running back in the direction that she came. She was so lost in her own thoughts of what just occurred that she didn't even realize the J Team was standing off to the side watching her run by, and calling to her, but she didn't hear a thing.
She ran all the way back to the palace and into her suite. She ended up locking herself in her room for the next three hours, and nobody could get her to come out. And they did try.
Three hours later
"Jade?" Amber's voice called from the other side of the room, no answer.
"Jade, come on Jade, it's been three hours, talk to us please." Mark's voice said.
"Go away." Jade demanded.
"Jade, come on, I know you're really upset about what just happened, but please, we can help you through this." Violet's stated.
"If you guys want to help me then please, just leave me alone, I'm not ready to talk to anyone about this." Jade stated.
"Come on guys, we need to respect her decision. We can comfort her when she's ready to accept it." Dante said.
Her friends left, but a few minutes later the J team showed up at her door.
"Jackie, I still think that it's better if we give her some space for now." Viper stated.
"I have to say, I agree with the lady thief." Uncle said.
"Former thief." Viper corrected.
"Uh, Jade?" Jackie called.
"Go away!" Jade yelled.
"Jade please, we just want to talk to you." Tohru said.
"You want to talk to me? Come back when I say you can!" Jade demanded.
"Amigos, I think we should listen to her. She needs to sort things out by herself for a while." El Toro stated.
"I guess you're right." Jackie said with a sigh.
With that said the J team left, leaving Jade alone.
