A skag skidded through the doorway. You screamed in shock. Hopping over the skag and running into the hallway, your fist began to heat up as well as light up. You sprinted through the halls, finally shooting fire at the vicious monster. It let out a loud screech in pain as you paused and joined your fists together, you began to charge up your Fire Ring as it slowly burned to death. Your eyes lit up, as well as your tattoo's. A ring of fire formed around the skag, as you launched up in the air and slammed your fist into it's face. It instantly died, and disappeared into thin air. You fell on your knees, weak after using so much power in a span of five minutes.

You hit the floor, your vision fading to black.

You woke up in a room filled with portraits of Jack and medical supplies. Your hand was enveloping a chunk of Eridium. "Holy crap! Did you see that thing's head?! It went *PBBLT* and it just-- ahaha ha.. oo it just *PBBLT* aHAaHAhaAA~!" "The skag?-" "*PBBLT* AAAAhhaAAhahAa hA!" "Jack are you drunk??" "Possibly." He paused. "Anyway, you look like you're doing better, did the Eridium help?" You nodded, taking in a breath of Hyperion air. "Good good." Jack paused, not knowing what to say. "I stole some ice cream from a bandit after killing his team.... Wanna eat some and watch some weird Mallhark movies..?" Jack attempted to lighten the mood. You chuckled slightly, nodding as you got up.

You followed Jack throughout Hyperion halls and finally reached his massive kitchen. It was filled with valuable China with Handsome Jack's mask in gold. "Woahhh~." You gasped. "I know right?! Preeetty awesome." You marveled at the fine China. "Say what; if you help me destroy Sanctuary, you can help me rule Hyperio-" "No! My friends live there, and if you think I'll kill them just to rule the scummiest corporation in the universe, you're completely wrong!" You fired back. "HEY. Listen here, kiddo; I saved your ass-" "KIDNAPPED." He growled at you, taking out a gun from his pocket. "You will rule Hyperion with me, and you won't disobey me, got it?" He pointed his pistol at your forehead. "I'd rather you shoot me." You spread your arms out, ready to embrace your demise. Your body shook, and you began to sweat.

"Jack, Yvette accidentally screwed up a total on the bill you needed!" A man with slicked back brown hair hurriedly walked towards the both of you. Jack put his hand down and turned towards Rhys. "Yvette did WHAT now?!" Jack said with haste in his tone. You relaxed and put your arms down as he marched out of the room.

"You don't have to thank me or anything." The man said with a smirk and crossed arms. "Sorry, thank you. You really saved my ass." You chuckled. "The name's Rhys." Rhys put his arms back to his sides. "(Y/n)." You sighed. "Nice to meet you. I've gotta get back to work, so uh, yeeeah.." He pointed back in the direction he came and jogged around the corner. 

Then, you heard loud footsteps heading your direction. "Shit! I gotta hide!" You muttered, opening a cabinet and climbing inside. They were big enough to fit your figure. "(Y/n), where the frick are you?" Jack yelled, hostilely. You were shaking, eyes watering out of pure terror. He began opening cabinets and rummaging around. "Oh no." You muttered. He opened the one you were in, light slightly emerging from the crack. "Found ya." He dragged you out by your forearm and looked down at you with a scowl. You put your arms in front of your face, ready to block a potential attack. He paused, his mind going blank.
