Letting out a sigh of relief John relaxed. "[i]Let's hope you can seeing how you just pulled my lead into JTechs out of the jaws of death.[/i]" he said with gratitude in his voice. Surely this could have gone worse. Jerome was a good man, and deserved better than  just being killed off by JTechs. 

He took in the woman in front of him for a moment before continuing. Her nails catching his eye for a second, but he'd seen worse down in Haven. Looking her in the eye as he took a few steps forward, his Stigma Eye glowing lightly. "[i]That man is Jerome Owens the brother of Jackson Owens who is the Vise President of JTeachs. Jerome has been helping other people like us. His brother has been tempted to also start helping, but something has gone wrong. [/i]"

John hoped that he wasn't going to far by trusting her, but she was like him so she most want so type of payback for what happened. If she was one of them it might be good to have a bit of backup in nasty situations. John crouched next to Jerome to check his pulse, I [i]I need to get him somewhere safe. You can come with me if you wish, but if you do you have to swear to me that we will trust each other.[/i]" he picked up Jerome, and turned to face her. "[i]I guess to show a sign of good faith I am Dr. Stigma, though to some I am John Gruger.[/i]"
