She had asked him if he had anywhere in mind for them to go and be safe. With what strength he had he struggled to his feet, groaning in pain as he did so. [i]FUCKSHITFUCKGODDAMNIT[/i] The words did not leave his mouth he was in far too much pain. Although he was pretty much healed up by now, he was still in quite a bit of pain. "I know of someone who can help us find a place..." He nodded, seeming to agree with what he had to say. "Yea... someone. His name is Roy he's Luca's son. Luca, the bar owner, remember? He's a bit of a bad boy, I'll be sure to keep him off ya. In any case, he should be able to help us." Jack almost rejected her offer to teleport him out of there, he wasn't quite sure either of them were up for it. But he knew she was stubborn and they NEEDED to get out of there. He allowed her to teleport them from wherever they were, to the alley beside Luca's dive bar. "Oi. We should be safe if we go in there. But only for a moment. No doubt Shirley's men are looking for us. They'll protect us in there. But they're honestly no match for Shirley and his creations..." Jack noticed something about himself. The joking manner in which he normally spoke was doused by how serious the situation was. He didn't like it one bit. "Alright, sweet cheeks. Allow me to handle this one. This 'bad boy' I spoke of before will only do us the favor we ask if we either give him something. Or threaten him." He chuckled, causing him to wince. "I definitely prefer the latter. Of course, I won't go killing anyone, but threatening is still on the list of things I'm [i]allowed[/i] to do, right?" With another nod of reassurance from himself, he headed inside and gestured to Luca as he entered. "Luca. 'ave you seen your sleezeball of a son?" "Roy, yea he's-" A person interrupted Luca by putting their arm around Jack's shoulder. "Right here, my man." "Roy!!" Jack tried not to wince and looked toward the door to see if Lexa had followed him. He REALLY didn't want Roy to get his hands on her. Not that he would try much other than kissing and a bit of groping. But it would irritate Jack, nonetheless. In all honesty, Roy was Jack's rival, always trying to steal Jack's women. "Where've ya been, Jack? Surely not left for dead somewhere by an ex one-nighter?" Jack snickered. "Nah, I've been busy. Look, can we talk in the alley way for a moment? I've got a request and I don't want the boys finding out about it, ya got me?" "Sure, sure, Jackaboy." Roy gave a grin and somewhat escorted Jack to the alley with his arm still around his shoulder. "Whatcha nee-" He stopped mid-sentence when he finally noticed Lexa. "Oi, oi. Who's this lovely lady, Jack? You didn't tell me you were with someone." "I'm not" He gritted his teeth when Roy pushed him away. "She's just a friend. Nothing more." "C'mon Jack, I've never known you to have 'just a friend' before." He moved closer to Lexa. Jack reached out and grabbed Roy's shirt collar, pulling Roy back and turning him around so that Jack could put HIS arm around Roy's shoulder. "Look here, you piece of cow dung dipped in elephant jizz, I'd leave her alone before she or I bash your pretty little face in, you [u]got[/u] me?" His tone was dark and threatening. Roy's eyes widened for a moment. "H-heh... Yea Jack. Totally. Wh-what'd you need?" "Oh, well you know." Jack's tone suddenly lightened and he smiled cheerfully. "We need a place to lay low for a while, no questions asked." "O-of course." Roy pulled his phone from his pocket and quickly sent a text. Just as quickly as he had sent it, his phone received a text in return. "I'll forward you the address... can I go now?" "Sure, buddy!" Jack let go of Roy and turned to Lexa as Roy scrambled back into the bar. "We'd better get going..."
