Maeve Owens: : :::a guard stops in front of
Donald's cell and hands him a thick envelope::: Quinn, you've
got some mail. :
YarnKittymon: DL: ::looks rather surprised, even
a bit eager; he'd long given up hoping for a message from Maeve--or
even his mother--but he's daring to hope again; looks at the envelope::
Quantum Catz: JK: ::is lying on his bed with
his head propped on his arms:: Anything interesting?
Maeve Owens: : :::its just a plain envelope
with no return address::: :
YarnKittymon: DL: ::frowns:: I don't know. ::with
an effort, tears, the envelope open at a seam::
Maeve Owens: :::theres a few photographs inside
and one note:::
YarnKittymon: DL: ::looks at the photographs
first::
Maeve Owens: :::one is a picture of Maeve sleeping.
The other is of her sitting at an outside table talking with Becky
and Toby::::
YarnKittymon: DL: ::looks more surprised than
anything else:: Who would send me these?
Quantum Catz: JK: Send you what, mate?
YarnKittymon: DL: ::hands the photographs to
Jack, then looks at the letter::
Quantum Catz: JK: ::sits up and looks at the
photos, frowning slightly::
Maeve Owens: :::The note reads, "Even better
looking in real life Quinn. Fancy that, told you my sixth sense
was good. Think I'm all talk now? :::
YarnKittymon:
DL: ::stares at
the note in disbelief; softly:: Dear God...
Quantum Catz: JK: ::is still focussing on the
photos; somberly:: This's your girl...ain't it Don?
YarnKittymon: DL: ::closes his eyes, trembling;
nods::
Quantum Catz: JK: ::rubs a hand across his face::
It's that Seth bastard...ain't it?
YarnKittymon: DL: ::suddenly pounds the wall
behind him, cursing::
Quantum Catz: JK: ::looks up at Donald; licking
his lips once:: Hell...mate...maybe we could find a way to...
::glances at the door to see if there's any guards around::
Maeve Owens: :::the guard thats giving out the
mail is a ways down the corridor and most likely out of ear shot.
Other than that, the place is free of guards.::::
YarnKittymon: DL: ::looks up at Jack, his eyes
filled with desperation::
Quantum Catz: JK: ::shakes his head:: I dunno...i
never thought about trying it again...all it got me was more bloody
time
YarnKittymon: DL: ::quietly:: I've got another
six months, if I'm lucky. He'll kill her by then.
Quantum Catz: JK: ::softly:: I don't kow if i
could get you out, mate...i don't know if i could even get myself
out...
YarnKittymon: DL: ::whispers:: We could try it,
though.
Quantum Catz: JK: I ain't ever got much further
than the next city, Don. And that wasn't even in this prison...
It'd take time to sort, besides
YarnKittymon: DL: We'd be as much as out of the
country, though; I'm sure she's on that island.
Quantum Catz: JK: Well it's not like your island's
just a quick jaunt around the corner, Don
YarnKittymon: DL: ::is quiet for a while; softly::
Do you want to try, Jack? If not I'll try without you.
Quantum Catz: JK: ::covers his face with his
hands for a few second and then says:: You'd never manage on ur
own, mate. You ain't got a clue what you're doing
YarnKittymon: DL: ::grimly:: That's not what
I asked, Jack.
Quantum Catz: JK: ::sighs:: Does she really mean
that much to you, mate?
YarnKittymon: DL: ::without flinching:: I'd die
for her, but I know I can't ask that of you.
Quantum Catz: JK: ::shakes his head and then
looks up, half-smiling:: I ain't never been much known for my
sense of chivalry but i still ain't never been able to sit around
while some bastard like Seth threatens a lady...
YarnKittymon: DL: ::grins suddenly:: Thank you,
Jack.
