Jackson looked at the girl and shook her head. "Don't be sorry. You had no idea that this would happen, neither of us did." The apologies sounded ridoculous. There was no need for the girl to say sorry, while she had done nothing wrong.
If anyone should be sorry, than that person had to be Elliot. He hadn't known about her pregnancy, but regardless of that, he did turn against her and attacked her, killing her child unknowingly and injuring Jackson herself as well. It only made his betrayal worse.
Jackson rubbed the tears out of her eyes, but they were soon replaced by new ones, making the action a rather useless one. This was no way for her to behave, she was a professional knight and should act like one. She couldn't just started crying at her job.
She reached for her phone to call her husband, but changed her mind. He had to know about this for sure, but maybe it was better to wait until she had at least managed to calm down a little bit. She hated having to tell such a serious thing through a phonecall rather than standing face to face with him, but she was on a mission, so what choice did she have?

Someone stole a jar of melatonin from the store that I work at. I hope it keeps them up at night.

Being tiny, curious as hell, cute and incredibly clumsy, I find Meltan surprisingly relatable for a lump of metal with a nut for a head.

I didn't know I had a favorite steel-type pokemon until Meltan. Not to be dramatic, but I'd die for that little fella

Everyone wants to be special, yet nobody seems to realise that being special isn't always a good thing.

Good to me! I was thinking of adding another knight too if you are good with that, but now is not the right moment, I guess.. I was thinking of making him a minotaur.
Elliot headed for their room. He had expected a discount, but not a room for free. Even though it seemed odd to him, he supposed they shouldn't complain about it.
Jackson hesitated for a moment when Melody asked her to wait. She never shared her thoughts or feelings with whoever she was supposed to work with, but considered trying to hide how awful she felt no use right now. She was already crying, so it was pretty obvious that she felt miserable.
She stopped walking and turned around, looking at the knight. She seemed concerned about Jackson, and she supposed that was understandable, and somewhat strange, too. At work, nobody ever cared about her.
She had no idea of what to do, how to react. Part of her just wanted to scream, but it wasn't fair to scream at the new knight. She did nothing wrong.
"I had a miscarriage." Was all she said softly, explaining why she was crying.

The man promised her not to get mad, and she supposed that would be the best she got. She would just have to find out if he really wouldn't get mad after he told her. After all, he probably didn't expect such a thing.
"Humans did this, they're mad because I'm a shapeshifter." She said softly, as if she was afraid that somebody would hear, even if they were the only two around.
Like she tried to prove that she wasn't lying, she showed him the necklace with the coin on it, which had the image of the leviathan on it. It originally belonged to her father, but she had gotten it after he had been hunted down and killed.

Elliot followed Gilwith to the counter, and left the girls behind to wait. It did make sense, as the girls were already publicly known as criminals, though the same thing may just not yet count for the two former knights.
"How much for a room with four beds?" He asked, figuring that would be more helpful than each of them sleeping in separate rooms. This way, they at least knew when something happened to someone else.
Trixie waited, as she was told to. She had to admit that she was happy to have her friend back, but wished that they weren't in such an unfortunate situation.
Jackson entered the room and shut the door behind her, looking at the doctor. After a quick explanation of what happened and a check to see if everything was alright, the man had no good news for her.
"I'm sorry miss Thorne, but at this point there's nothing we can do anymore." The man said after telling her the bad news. Jackson couldn't manage to get any words out of her throat, and nodded instead. The doctor gave her something to treat the burn with, and after that she left the room, bursting out in tears.

Alright, I'm going to sleep, will read the cs and ic post tomorrow.
I'm good with dark things, so a miscarriage it is. It would most likely affect her relationship with the rookie knight in a good way, with her leaving the room in tears and not keeping up the cold attitude for once. It'll also make her more determined to find the others so she can beat up Elliot for it, or worse, because even if unknowingly, he is responsible for her child's death.
You get to choose if Jackson has a miscarriage or not, because I can't decide
"In that case, we better not get caught." Elliot said in response to Gilwith. Sure, the knight had a point, but the fact that he had helped Kiara and attacked a fellow knight was almost definitely already enough to sentence him to death.
Trixie looked around as they walked, trying to remember the exact location of the motel. It had been close to her former workplace, but she always suppressed thoughts about that, so she didn't remember it exactly.
"Thank you for protecting me, even though my life doesn't have much value." She said to Gilwith, looking at the former knight.
Jackson didn't react to Spencer leaving, not caring too much about it. If anything, it was a relief. The man had gotten on her nerves quite much.
When they reached the room where Jackson was supposed to be, she looked at the new knight. She realised she hadn't asked the girl's name yet.
"My apologies for my rude behaviour during this first meeting. The truth is that there's something that worries me at the moment, and I need to be assured about it." She apologised, before reaching foor the doorknob.
"Now I'm sorry, but if you don't mind, I'll ask you not to come along. The thing I'm here for is pretty personal." She said, before entering the room.

"I don't know.." Ella answered when he asked her if she was still bleeding somewhere. All she knew was that it hurt, a lot, and she just wanted the pain to stop. It was a very simple wish, wasn't it?
When he asked what attacked her, the child hesitated. She knew who attacked her, but could she tell him? If she told him that she was attacked by humans, because she was a shapeshifter, than would he still help her? She had no idea, so she could only hope.
"Promise you won't be mad if I tell you."
