Thomas was furious that Garnae would doubt his loyalty. "I would never work for Samuel." He turned to Mayonette, he knew the group now question weither he was working for Samuel or not. "The only proof I have to show you is the scar I bear. Once I found out the truth behind Zach's lies I decided to track the liar down. I was lucky when I discovered the man's hideout. While his lackies were gone for the day I waited for Zach to exit the cave. My first thought was strike him while he wasn't expecting it. But I knew that would not be right. I wanted my face to be the last one he saw before he slipped into death. I pulled out my bow only to land an arrow a few feet in front of him. He knew I was there. He called out to me, telling me to be a man and face him. I stepped out from amongst the rocks where I was hiding. Before I knew it we both were badly injured. I bear a scar now on the right side of my upper back and one across my stomach. I was lucky to survive. If you noticed Zach's left arm was unfunctional, that would be due to our quarrel." Thomas lifted his shirt to show the group the proof he had.
He didn't know if they would believe him. Yet the only thing his heart really cared about was that Mayonette believed him and that Cordelia still trusted him.
