creatingalegacy | } 056 - AUDIO, THEN VIDEO - all public

[On the third day of port, Amanda tracked her inmate down. She had expected it would be difficult to drag Lua back to the Barge--the woman didn't remember her--but not impossible. She hadn't known that Lua had gone Repo during her fall overboard.

When Amanda draws her gun, she accidentally snags her little wrist-communicator on her belt, and the audio turns on. She calls out cautiously.]

[AUDIO]

Lua...?

Great. As if this place isn't bad enough, you're hanging around a fuckin' cemetery. Lua, it's me. I know you're here--

[She had expected it to be hard. She hadn't expected Lua to have died before she could make it there, and her breath catches in her throat.]

Oh god. No, no--

[She's running now; it's audible. She caught sight of a clump of Lua's hair peeking out from behind a headstone, and sure enough...it's her inmate, neck broken. A thud can be heard as Amanda falls to her knees. Another thud comes as she drops her gun on the ground beside her.]

Come on...

[None of this can be heard, but...

She feels for her pulse; there isn't one. She tries to pull her to a sitting postion, to figure out what she hell happened, and her head flops around at a sickening angle.]

Oh, god...I'm sorry. I'm so fuckin' sorry, Lua. This is my fault. If I had been faster...!

[She starts to cry, and that can be heard.]

All my fault.

[This continues or a few minutes, the crying and apologies, before Amanda struggles to collect herself. She still isn't aware her communicator is on, so when she turns on video, she thinks that's the first broadcast she's made.]

[VIDEO]

[The footage transmitted is of Lua, lying dead. Her head is on Amanda's lap, and Amanda is affectionately untangling Lua's hair with her free hand. Lua's eyes are closed, and her hands have been folded across her abdomen.]

This is Lua Klein. She's my inmate. My friend.

[Amanda's voice is steadier, but cold. Dangerous. Her former bragging tone is gone.]

I don't know who did this to her, but I'm going to find out. Then I'll find you, and I'll kill you. Then I'll cut my way through as many of you Repo fucks as I can.

[Amanda aims the camera at herself. She's taken off her mask, and her face looks like hell, but she wants whoever killed Lua to know exactly who she is.]

Remember my face, because it's the last thing you'll fuckin' see.

Lua??

That's what I fuckin' said, isn't it?

Oh, God. I can't believe...

If you have any idea who did it, you'd better tell me now.

I can't believe that stupid bitch went and got herself killed by a contract!! I mean, how freaking sloppy do you have to be!?

Okay, bitch, you just moved up the list.

[She's getting now that Lua was into Repo, but that comment makes her blood boil.]

She was one of them, wasn't she?

[Amanda nods, all snuffly. There's tears and snot and just all kinds of undignified stuff happening in her personal bubble right now.]

Yeah. She was.

[She looks down at Lua again with a hollow sob.]

I took too long.

We both took too long. I saved a friend from her earlier but didn't have time to alert you because he was injured.

[He hates seeing her like that.] I'm sorry. I don't know who was responsible for this, but it wasn't you. [Though he knows how that failure goes.]

When we were paired, I promised I'd keep her safe...

[She shakes her head and smooths out more of Lua's hair.]

I failed her like I failed everyone else I swore to protect. That much is my fault.

Her life is valuable to you. That means something. You've not failed as long as that's true.

[This he really does believe.] Don't get yourself killed. Stay alive so you can take care of her while she's uncomfortable.

[When Amanda speaks again, her voice is still wavering, but far more determined.]

I'm going to kill them, Rhade. As many of the motherfuckers as I can get my hands on.

Amanda... [ Oh my god she can't stop all the crazy murderers in this place and keep Wanda alive. ]

I'm sorry. But going on a killing spree isn't going to help anything.

Don't worry. I'm only killing the ones who live here.

[Amanda may or may not be bloody as hell right now. Thank god for that mask she bought.]

I just saved a woman from having her spinal column removed. I gave her everything left of the money the Admiral provided me so she can make her next payment.

[ You make her smash her head against walls. ]

I guess beggars can't be choosers. Remember, you're supposed to be setting a good example.

But hey, thanks for not putting their heads on spikes.

[Yes, she tends to have that effect on people. :D]

I think saving people from being murdered and having their organs stolen is setting a good fuckin' example, wouldn't you?

It's a good start, but I'd just like to make my stance on death clear.

Death bad. Death always bad.

Your stance? Is bullshit.

....Reckless.

Sloppy and stupid.

...Hoffman, the only reason I'm not gonna kill you over this is because people would judge me for it. Point fingers and say "she hasn't changed a bit."

[Hoffman looks confused for a moment.]

...I was talking about her not you. Letting herself get killed.

And that's why I'd kill you...if I hadn't learned how to watch out for my own best interest every once in a while.

Shut your mouth about Lua, you son of a bitch.

What the hell is your problem? I mean honestly. What's she to you?

You know she'll be back, right?

That doesn't change the fact that she was killed!
