It was midnight and Duke was hysterical. He is running throughout the halls with his daughter in his arms, shouting for help and for someone to hear him. "Guys! Someone wake up! Donnie! Raph!"

Answering his friend's cries, Raphael ran through the hall. He was using the bathroom and heard Duke hollering. "Duke, what's going on?!"

"Vincent is gone! Vincent is gone! She was taken by--" Duke had tears in his eyes, rambling so many words that Raph could hardly keep up.

Raphael clutched Duke's shoulders and forced him to make eye contact. "Duke, tell me what happened!"

Next, Donatello, Michelangelo, Leonardo, and other friends of Duke's have piled into the hall outside his room. "What on earth is going on over here?!" Leo bellowed, rubbing his eyes from the slumber he had been awakened from. He came down the hall without his bionic arm, his stump clearly visible as he stood in the cluster of people in the hall.

Duke took a massive deep breath and spoke while he sobbed up a storm. "Abby! It was Abby. She's with Wicked. She and a few others came in, prevented us from defending ourselves and she took Vincent! They took her."

The friends and brothers are in shock, feeling utterly dumb now that one of their own has been kidnapped by Wicked in their own home! Down the hall, Tom is running up behind Leo and the others. "Honey and Celeste are not in the room! Nowhere to be found." He chirped in concern. "They're g-gone..."

Leonardo ran his hand down his face and set it on his hip, looking down at the floor. He turned to his family, looking at his brothers and friends. "Gear up, now." He ordered. "Wicked woke up the sleeping giant..." He growled.

Sacred Heart is the main hospital in the city, one that communities are aware of and see as a haunting location. In one of the rooms, Vincent feels her face lying on the cold tiled floor in chains. Her head was throbbing and it pained her to put her head up. The last thing she remembered was being carried out of Anzen. She groaned. "Duke... Bethany...?" She looked around and then found chains on her left wrist, and her bionic hand and right arm were chained as well to ensure she didn't escape.

It's silent in this room. Surprisingly but also not surprisingly, Vv isn't in the hospital bed. Of course, she's treated like garbage. Vv could hear the faint voices of other people outside the room, though, trying to make out what they were saying. 

Despite her panic, she forced herself to glance about, scanning the area for a weapon, but nothing drew her attention. She needed to figure out how to keep her unborn child safe. Then, walking right into the room with leather gear, a full head of black hair with two Dutch braids and olive skin came through. She saw Vv awake and smirked at her. "Welcome back."

Vv groaned as she sat up. "I wouldn't waste your time. I'm not telling you anything."

"Unfortunately, you'll have no choice but to speak." The girl said to Vincent. Then, she noticed the leather patch on the girl's shoulder, the letters 'WM'. She knew what it meant.
