《Jack K》Losers' fate

"ugh what happened Jack ?"Petal tiredly came out of Jack's pocket and looked at him,"Jack ?!"he looked around and they were falling down quickly, the flower panicked then his golden petals started glowing brightly revealing what was hidden behind the darkness, he quickly extended his roots at the nearest platform and managed to Drag Jack along,"wake up flame head !"petal slapped jack with a leaf.

Jack groaned and turned to his side, he was greatly hurt during the battle with Thunder, he decided to go easy and try to talk to thunder during the battle to find a solution but Thunder didn't reply, he attacked Jack with blind fury like if they were enemies, "snooze"he pressed Petal's head roughly,"I'm not an alarm clock you idiot !"the flower's petals turned blue, Petal took a deep breath then spit out cold water in Jack's face making him jump up startled,"why did you wake me up ?!"he looked around examining his surrounding,"where are we ?"

"I don't know ! Now shut up, pick me up, check your gear and let's find out !"

Jack stood up exhausted then roughly grabbed Petal from the stem and shoved him in his pocket, "well..Thunder broke one of my swords but I still have the other" Jack said examining his sword, it was slightly shorter than the one before it but he had two in case he lost one or he just needed an extra blade,"good thing I made two when we both went to a thief hide out for 'training', speaking about that why did you make me eat hearts back then ?"Jack looked at his flower frenemy, despite hating petal for killing him he can't deny he is a help and in the arena he is one of the few Jack can trust.

"well...when I killed you I shoot you in the heart right ? I Can't produce sufficient energy for great spells or a better body so I steal from other, under my domination it's the same case for you..to stay alive your heart needs to beat..but you can't do that so you have to steal it from others"Petal explained.

Jack nodded slowly and looked at the only way they had,a single door leading to the unknown, with no other choice Jack walks in heating up to light his path, the inside wasn't a single path.

It was similar to a maze full of weird devices and drawings but for the first few moments free of unpleasant encounters.

But, the peace didn't last, Jack looked at a metallic box with a dangerous sign and Another 'top secret' one.

Petal moved his stem up and looked at the signs then Jack,"what should we do ?"He asked peeling his eyes.

"We take a distance" Jack moved back a couple of steps them shoot a fireball at the lock of the chest, the chest smashed open and from it came a deformed version of lightning, Jack's first opponent, "that guy looks familiar" Petal exclaimed.

"That's because it's Lighting the first guy we fought !"Jack said jumping out of the way of a laser ray, Lightning looked better on the gear but horrible on the human side, whereas his gear was an upgraded better version of his last one his skin was pale as dead and his eyes looked lifeless, a weird liquid was coming out of his mouth and wounds.

Soon the mutant's gear reshaped giving him guns on the shoulders which he used to shoot Jack with electrified bullets, Jack swiftly dodged knowing that blocking with his metallic sword is not a wise option, he relied on dodging while searching for an opening in Lightning's armor but found none, "hey let me go ! I can help" Petal said popping his head out of Jack's pocket,"guess there's no other option"Jack took out Petal and threw him near Lightning's foot.

Petal took a deep breath then spit out a lot of water at Lighting's weapons disabling them, Lightning screeched in pain then fell down on his knees, his weapons were backfiring against him giving him powerful electric shocks, he looked at Petal with hate and tried grabbing him, Jack kicked Lightning straight in the face throwing him far away then quickly grabbed Petal and fled from the battle.

"What was that ?!" Petal asked, "I don't know what was that but it sure wasn't lightning"Jack panted and kept wondering through the Maze hoping the thing from earlier got lost too, it was only minutes till he met with another mutant, it was wielding an ice spear taking a defensive stance he recognized it as one of Jade's previous opponents,"I can handle this by myself" Jack smiled and got quickly close to the mutant, it froze the ground then prepared the spear, Jack didn't stop and slide on the ice moving away from the spear getting a small wound on the chest but not a little close to being impaled, he grabbed the spear with his left hand trying to endure the freezing cold effect of the spear then stabbed the mutant right in the head killing it, he cut it open to make sure it dies and felt disgusted by the scene, it wasn't a human on the inside either, it was connected with many electric devices and some organs are manipulated beyond recognition, "this is just..no...just horrible..."Jack mumbled and moved away from the corpse trying to think straight,he soon covered his nose almost through up from the horrible smell of chemicals,"ugh.. whatever is happening there I'm sure it's the explanation to this" he forced himself to follow the smell, he was unsure in the beginning but then having multiple encounters with old mutated opponents in addition to some robots he knew the security sure wasn't for something normal.

The door was locked with a code so Jack jumped in the air vents and sneaked into what appeared to be a lab, his eyes widened seeing Vale dead and tied to a table, there was many scientists doing horrible experiments on people from the arena, one thing common for them all, they all lost.

They suddenly stopped as the arena owner walked in, he was a shadowy figure with everything black and not showing except for glowing red eyes, the scientists were too nervous to work and hardly were able to talk to the arena owner lowering their head every time he passes by or looks at someone, he really was a feared person.

Jack got closer to listen to a conversation with the owner and the only scientist who didn't look as afraid as the others.

"How's the prison ?"The owner asked in a calm but scary voice, it echoed through the lab giving everyone the chills.

"E-e-e-excellent ! There's no way Ghost could escape !" The scientist smiled with worry trying to keep a confident look.

"Good...and if he escapes... I'll kill you even after he does !"with that the owner disappeared and the one he was talking to couldn't but shiver.

"Here's my chance...my only chance"Jack smashed down through the air vent after making sure the owner completely left, a huge portal with many warning signs on caught his attention, "this must be it !"he swiftly rushed not even trying to dodge anymore, he didn't feel pain anymore as his goal was straight in front of him, it was what he killed for in the first place,his reason to fight, All scientist were trying their best to stop him, releasing mutants, robots and trying to shoot him down with guns they made.

Jack collapsed a few steps near and was trying to crawl his way to the machine, his vision was blurry, his breathing hitched, he was getting more injured every minute not to mention he already got injured in the fights before.

He slowly started closing his eyes, petal was trying his best to push away danger and keep Jack awake, he stopped when Jack grabbed him.

And with the last bit of strength he has Jack threw Petal at the portal's control, then fainted.
