"WHAT?!" Zick screams from shock. Seeing Jean causes his entire body to shake and tremble, with his brother Jack sleeping.
"What are you bloody doing here?!" Sam says loudly, walking slowly towards Jean with a clenched fist. Ready to give him a piece of his mind.
"Well I didn't say I didn't expect this..." Jean jumps above Sam carefully to not hit the dirty and red blocky ceiling, evading his punch. "You aren't even giving me a chance to explain myself guys." Landing successfully behind them.
"Why the fuck would we? You captured us and almost killed us all with the entire fuckin' city following us!"
"Huh. Yeah that sounds like a good reason to be mad at me." He replies to Zick's shouts. "But I promise I'm on your side. Just ask Jack."
"I don't need to fuckin' ask Jack. I already know the piece of shite you are!" Looking straight at Jean, facing him only a few centimeters away.
"Oh oh wow you really are playing these games?..." Jean quickly grabs Zick's face with one arm, showing his full strength as Torment appears right behind him doing the same pose. "If I wanted to hurt you all I could of just sent the entire town here since I know your location. So tell me again if you even have a choice here." Both Jean and Torment's voices mixed while he said that, almost like he's just Torment's puppet. "Got it? Now wake your brother up I need to talk with all of you at once."
Both Zick and Sam had no choice but follow as he said. It would be either that the three will get murdered by the entire city or to be with Jean for a while.
Zick walks to his older brother, pushing him a bit and waking him up.
"Wha-WHAT?! WHY THE DARN HELL IS HE HERE?!" Jack shouts. Pointing at Jean.
"I'm here for help-."
"Not you! Him!" Jack, Zick and Jean look at where Jack actually pointed at, seeing Torment. "Out of all the darn places you keep following me!" With all of that Sam has no clue and looks confused where Jack points at.
"Oh.. hehe yeah I am kinda a guy who likes to stick around you know..." Torment mockingly answers his shouts, tilting his head a bit to to the side with his arms crossed behind his back.
"Oh you know Torment?" Jean questioned, surprised from that fact. "How do you know him?"
"He.. he just appeared in front of my darn face when I was fighting that horse earlier.." Jack gets up, showing his new right arm, from Sam's weapon as a gift. "I was pointing my finger at the horse and suddenly all went blank for two seconds, seeing the horse dead by my shots. After that he came and introduced himself to me."
"Is that so..." He walks closer to Jack, on one knee down he sits, facing Jack, getting closer and looking straight at him. "Tell me... what do you know of him?"
"All I know that he's a ghost and that only three to four people can see him. I have no idea who but I guess you can darn see him as well." Relaxing a bit. Remembering how Jean, even though cut off his arm, set him free and saved him.
"That's it? Huh. Wow you are truly clueless of the situation..."
"The situation?"
Jean gives a big sigh, just wanting to go through what he wants. "Yes the situation. Torment and I got a plan, and it involves taking down my brother, Joshua, from leading."
A huge surprise and shock strike all of them, jumping all of a sudden with energy and excitement. Not to Jean's surprise, he expected them to react that way.
He started crossing his arms, shrugging waiting for them to rest in the same time they jump and question why would he do that.
"Jeez these guys are truly a wonder..." he thinks to himself.
All of the three, relaxed now, go to Jean and ask what to do and how it could work.
"So... what do you darn want from us then?" Jack asks, gesturing with new arm forward, as if he is asking for a tip like a waiter.
"The plan is easy... currently we don't have a good name on the citizens me and Joshua. What I want us to do is to make him look worse than me. Making all citizens join my faction. He doesn't trust me alone and with Torment he thinks he's a virus. Truly foolish of him to think that."
"Why would we believe you that Torment isn't a darn demon of some sort? Yes he has been with me but how can we know if he isn't using you?" He asks without even taking a single breath, doubting Jean's own plan.
"First of all." Sweeping faster next to them, holding onto Jack's smooth chin. "As I said, you don't have a choice." Leaving the chin and then grabbing Zick's hat. "Second, Torment has a special ability, being able to see ten years into the future."
Jack and Zick lean back with a face that you would usually get when you see your pet die or when you fail a test you thought you'd win.
"He can what?!" Both Jack and Zick shout at the same time, all while Sam still looks confused about the situation itself.
"Yes yes I know, a shocker. He helped me many times in the past and even when I was a pirate he helped me once or twice. I owe him big time." Saying that, Torment begins to have that big smile again, hearing the same rubber sound as before only stretchier and stretchier the more he smiles devilishly. "No need to worry about it, he told me what will happen if we act the right way. If we do, all of us will get to rule and be happy, no dictatorship or fear in the city. Nothing like that at all! All we have to do is follow those steps of his and we are golden!"
"Golden ay?" Zick, still doubting Jean's plan he questions a bit more. "How can we help then? We don't have a disguise like you."
Jean chuckles with a smirk, putting his left hand on his hip and the right hand pointing at Jack, confusing him for a tiny bit.
"I don't need you and Sam to disguise. You two will stay here and monitor us. Me and Jack will disguise ourselves as girls with our already feminine looks and try and make all the Violet side turn into my side. We will need to start by going to the chef's place... chef Mario... he doesn't really like me that much but I believe we can convince him in one way or another."
Another few minutes pass. Jean brought a disguise for Jack. Keeping him in orange and purple but with a dress and white mask as well. Both Jean and Jack are now disguised as girls ready to make the chef turn sides.
"Is this really darn necessary dressing up as girls and doing girly voices?" Jack asks with Sam and Zick trying to not look at him from how awkward it looks.
"For your knowledge." He answers as he tightens his clothes. "I have to be a girl mostly because my voice is recognisable."
"Okay but why do I have to be a darn chick?!"
"I don't want to be the only fake girl here it would be unfair!"
"UNFAIR?!"
"Yeah!"
Jack almost bursts into an explosion with him saying that. "What the darn hell you darn mean unfair?! This is embarrassing!"
"We all take risks."
"You know what, screw it. If it darn helps the situation so whatever."
"That's the spirit!"
"Ugh..." a loud facepalm was heard throughout the sewers as Jack's face hurts a lot now.
"So?... what are you waiting for? Let's get out of this stinking sewer and get that chef."
"Darn... fine then."
The two jump out of the sewers with a communication device in their hats for whenever Zick or Sam will want to talk or say something to them.
Looking around, they see the street being empty. Beginning to walk they start to talk a bit more on Jean's brother, Joshua.
"So... what is your darn brother like?"
"Oh uhm..." remembering again that Jack still doesn't have his memories, he tries to talk normally and calm. "He is pretty obnoxious at times. Always shows too much care to the order of the city and gets angry a lot at me for stupid reasons."
"Reasons like what?"
"There was this one time where I tried having a dance party with my fellow Rose supporters at the mansion and he almost lit the entire building on fire because of it. Crazy guy at times..."
"Ha! My brother can be the darn same! He can be scared as well at times. He's just caring mostly."
"Yeah I guess brothers can be like that at times."
With them talking throughout the lonely street, hearing the cold wind flowing and the steps on the rocky road a sudden Impact was heard.
"Did you hear that?-."
After Jean asks, a figure appears in front of them out of nowhere with ten comrades behind him.
"Oh no, not again..."
"HA! Aye it is I! Willhelm the strong!" The bulk robot says with his thumb pointed at his face, giving a big and cocky smirk.
"Eh... you know that darn guy?"
"Long story. Just prepare to fight whenever you see that guy, he does not like me."
"I see ya brought a friend with ya ay? Oi there that be a big problem on me own side. Luckily we know how you act lasses and neither of ya stinking boots will go through me this time! Prepare for a rematch!"
