Kaye winced at Basil's verbal assault and stared incredulously at him for a long time. Her eyes started watering as tears threatened to fall and qiickly wiped them away before he noticed, but was sure he knew. "You know what...? I...I do the best I know how and you can go to hell! Your type always think you are better than me, you know? You are all the same! Just because you have the brains while the other guy is the brawns. Well..." she had no idea what she was trying to say and looked away, teeth clenched together. "I...fuck you! This is the thanks I get for trying to help someone! Your buddy almost died today and I was trying to show both of your feelings for one another before it was too late! In this world, death hits you as fast as it takes a bullet to strike." She fell silent for a moment, looking at the ground. "Then one day...you wake up to this. Welcome to life!"

     Jace looked at the ghoul, death incarnate rittled in his fiery glare that he set on Leith. His grip tightened on the gun, almost tempted to shoot him but barely refrained from doing so. He held his gun in one hand as he walked over to the ghoul, grabbing him by the collar of his shirt. The gun slipped from his grasp before it registered in his mind and formed a fist before punching him as hard as he could in the cheek.
    "You fucking carcass." He spat on him, practically growling. "Get up and fight me now, you bastard."
