The next day....
Noah:*walks in Starbucks* Morning John.
John: Morning Noah. How you doing?
Noah: Alright.
John: What will it be?
Noah: The usual.
John: Alright.
Noah:*sits on a table* Man. I still can't believe the city has changed.
John: I know. Thanks to Stark Industries.
Noah: Yeah.
John: Here you go.
Noah: Thanks.*takes a sip*
*gas comes from the air vents*
Noah: What the.... What is this. It's....*drops coffee* sleeping gas.*falls to the floor, out cold*
Later on....
Noah:*Wakes up in what he thinks is a abandon building. Tries to get his hands free but can't* What the.... Damn.
???: Took you long enough. Did you have a nice rest?
Noah: Who are you? Show yourself.
Dark Phanto:*comes out of the shadows*
Noah: I should have known. Why are you doing this?
Dark Phanto: Oh you know why.*takes off mask* Remember all those years ago. We were the best of friends. We trusted each other. We had our backs.*Goes to him* Let my tell you this. Why couldn't- No that's not the word. Why DIDN'T you save her? WHY DID YOU SAVE LIZ?!*hits him*
Noah:*spits blood* Look I'm sorry that I couldn't save her. I tried my best to save her but, I wasn't fast enough.
Alex: Oh you never are. I trusted you. And you knew that I loved her. And yet you didn't save her! And what's worse.... you leave it all behind. Like we're just another piece of trash.
Noah: I'm sorry.
Alex: That doesn't work on me Noah. And you know that.
Noah: What would she think of this Alex?
Alex: SHUT UP!!! *hits him again* don't try that on me. She's dead, because of YOU!!!*puts his tied up body to the ground and kicks him in the gut*
Noah: L- Look. I know what I did and I'm sorry. I had tried so hard to fix my mistake.
Alex: *Puts him back up* I.... Will never forgive you.*slaps him and leaves into the shadows*
Noah:*Looks down* I'm sorry.
Meanwhile with the others....
Becky: Hey guys.
Jose: Hey Becky. Wait? Noah isn't with you?
Becky: No, I haven't seen him all day.
Jose: That's strange.
Peter: He isn't picking up my calls.
Becky: He must be in trouble.
Jose: I'll go get the others.
Peter: Right.
A few hours later....
Noah:*Tries to unlose the knot*
Alex: Try all you want, it won't work.*starts swing his baseball bat*
Noah: So, what are you gonna do? Kill me with a baseball bat?
Alex: No, not yet. I'm just gonna hurt you REALLY, really bad.
