Zone D -- The Foam

[Handsome Jack]

Ol' Blueberry and I are zipping through caverns like we got the literal devil on our heels. In a lot of ways, we do. Groawr has her tablet out, guiding me along our way in the darkness. I can't see shit... every other step my feet are skidding on loose gravel or I'm kicking a stalagmite. But every time I stumble, every time I fall, I bolt back to my feet and keep running. The alternative is to let Sterling's sacrifice go to waste.

I think back to my friend and if I could cry, tears would be streaming over my beak. We'd been through a lot on this island. From our initial meeting in the Colosseum, where he handed me my carapaced, green ass, to our time spent traveling together on the island, to our ill-fated battle against the girl and her black dad, to our time spent drinking together... we'd gathered a life-time of memories in only a few short days. And even though I know he'll revive, I'm gonna miss the guy. Aside from Blue on my back, he was pretty much the only friend I had.

Wow. That was weird. Friends? Did I really just think that? How the fuck does Cell, the perfect being, become friends with a human and a wad of bubblegum? It boggles my mind. Yet, there it is. Me, a creature designed to destroy and consume, is now friends with those he was meant to defeat.

My foot crashes into another darkness-shrouded stone, bringing me back to reality. I can think about this strange turn of events later. For now, I have to keep moving. To slow is to lose. To stop is to die. If I want to live, if I want to win, I have to rush forward. That is the only way.
