"This..."
Ellen finally managed to murmur, her expression a mask of confusion as she turned to Jinx, the only one she truly considered a friend. Jinx's opinion was paramount.
Jinx met her gaze briefly before shifting her attention to Sunny. "You promise nothing will happen to her?" she asked, a hint of trepidation in her voice.
"Not her... Both of you," Sunny corrected, his words firm.
Jinx exhaled slowly. "Alright then... But you have to see something." She turned back to Ellen, her hand moving to uncover Ellen's shoulder, revealing a network of stark scars etched onto her collarbone.
".....?!"
Sunny, Josephine, and Star were visibly stunned by the sight.
"Who did this?" Sunny's voice was low, laced with a chilling killing intent.
"I just need two things from you..." Jinx carefully covered Ellen's shoulder once more, her eyes locking onto Sunny's glowing red ones.
