"Bruce?...how...why...you-" Anika stumbled to put her words together
Jason rolled his eyes "yeah yeah shocking shocking, on with the plot"
Bruce gave Anika a scoff "to think I had to pretend to like you just to get information"
Anika's heart broke into tiny pieces at Bruce's words.
"Oh no what a tragedy" Jason laughed and walked out, Bruce followed without looking back

She almost gave up waiting and was about to go home when his fingers twitched
She stood up immediately "Matteo? Matteo!!" She pressed the nurse call button and immediately nurses swamped the place
They checked Him and have her the green sign.
She heaved a breathe of relief
, when the nurse left, she held his hands "Matteo....pls wake up....I miss me so much...."
"I missed you too doll face"
"Matteo!!"

"So you're Les uh?" Oliver asked
"I don't know" Xena replied with a guilty expression on her face
"Who's Anika?" Zenyatta asked out of the blue and Oliver frowned "how do you know her"
Zenyatta tears flew down her face "who's she"
Xena was surprised "do you know her?"
Zenyatta smiled "i have a confession"

Bruce and Jason stood infront of Anika with a smirk
Bruce punched her in the face twice "tsk tsk tsk, what happened to strong willed Anika?"
Jason laughed "you're good, you deserve a kiss"
Bruce blushed and looked away
"How"
Bruce and Jason looked at her
Anika was tearing up, she had different bruises on her skin "how, when did you join him"..
Jason smirked "it all happened after your phone call with him a month ago about the lost pill"
Flashback....
Meanwhile after the call with Bruce.......
..in an abandoned warehouse...
Jason dropped the phone and scoffed "useless" he turned to look at Bruce who was sitting on the chair, hands tied, a gag in his mouth, and a blindfold on his eyes
He removed the blindfold, Bruce gasped, he shook his head repeatedly
"Hello Bruce" Bruce frowned when he heard his voice from Jason, Jason coughed and removed the voice modulation "my bad"
"Where were we?? Yes welcome Bruce...I see you've made yourself comfortable on the chair" Jason said.
Jason then brought out a pill from his pockets "you dropped this...I mean I took it, it's weird finding pills in your pocket who would have thought it was a poison pill"
Bruce scoffed into the gag, Jason then removed the gag around his mouth "why are you doing this"
Jason laughed "for revenge of course, Draco's time everything from me, fame, money, power"
Bruce scoffed "it doesn't suit you", Jason then laughed "let's strike a deal, make my dad like you and gain all his plans and feed them to me, betray Anika and follow me and you shall have everything you desire, power? Fame? Anything"
Bruce thought for a second "I don't want that"
Jason frowned "then what do you want"
"I want you!"
......
"And that's how I got him to work for me, do you want to know what I did to your little pill??"
Anika gulped and Jason laughed "I injected myself with it"
Anika gasped "I don't know where the cure is"
Jason laughed "I know that, that's why I asked Bruce to steal it, you see my little puppy here adores me and is willing to do anything for me"
Bruce handed to him the bottle of clear liquid and Anika gasped "no"
Jason laughed "yes and I know in four weeks time, my heart is going to explode, but not if I take the cure soon"
Anika scoffed "what's the damn point of taking the pill"
Jason laughed "this is where it gets Interesting, Matteo is awake since you don't know and he needed blood transfusion"
Anika paled "no...Jason you didn't"
Jason laughed "oh yes I did, I told Sadie I'll get something in return if I donated my blood and that's how I got the recipe of your poison pill hidden beneath your bed"
Flashback
"Why would you want that?" Sadie asked and Jason smiled "it's just a sandwich recipe, no biggy"
"That's weird I'm not getting it for you" Sadie said and Jason stopped smiling "then Matteo dies"
Jason attempted to walk away and she held his arm "I'll talk, the book is under her bed, but you can't enter without hers or my biometrics"
Jason turned to her "then why do you think I came to meet you, you'll get it for me or say bye bye to your beloved"
Sadie sighed "okay I'll do it"
......
"And after I got the formula, I have my infected blood to Matteo, incase my plan doesn't go as plan, he dies with me if it does well we blame it on Matteo's bad luck
Anika was already in tears
