After eating something, Kate felt a lot better, enough to speak and think clearly. "Jack, what the he** are you doing here?" She questioned, not coldly, but not exactly warmly either.
"Well I couldn't just let them turn you into one of their evil minions could I?" He replied with a faint smile.
She hesitated a moment before replying grudgingly "Thank you, I guess."
"You guess?" He cocked a brow.
"Yes, I guess" She snapped. After seeing Jack's hurt expression, she softened her voice "I'm sorry, Jack."
"So, why was Lark in the castle? I think he worked for Vlad?" Jack asked, changing the subject.
"He did, but apparently he's working on his own now to control Lakia. I haven't heard anything from Vlad in awhile."
"Maybe he left?" Jack suggested.
Kate shook her head "No, I don't think so. I'm not sure about any of this really" She admitted.
"What about Cairo?" Jack asked, inclining his head curiously.
"He claims to have switched sides" She replied with a shrug "But I'm not sure I trust him, Maxine has him locked up with his gang. They are expecting me soon. Which reminds me" She said after a moments pause "I really should get back before my team thinks I'm dead or something."
Jack furrowed his brow "Are you sure your ready to travel?" He asked worridly.
"Of course" She replied, a bit sharper then she intended.
"Alright alright" Jack replied, holding his paws up "No need to snap. I can get you there faster if we fly."
Kate narrowed her eyes with a grin "Just like old times"
"Of course" He replied, returning her grin.
