An Angels Hero

Approaching Ruination

"What?" Ethan asks Jack as he tells of the memory he remarked. "Are you sure about that? Sounds a bit crazy."

"I swear! I don't know all of the details, but I was a hero in another world, and this scar on my chest-" Jack says, "Was obtained in that fight!"

"Yeah... Sure..." Ethan steadily backs away, thinking Jack sounds a bit deranged. "Did that fall damage your brain?"

"I know I seem crazy, but I swear!" Jack says.

"Okay, let's say you are from another universe... How would you have, in that hypothetical scenario, end up here? Let alone from an accident?" Ethan asks.

"Oh... Hehehe, that I don't remember yet." Jack says, "But I do know I'm not from this world!"

"Right... And it was seeing that scar that made you 'remember' that?" Ethan asks, placing his hand on his chin.

"Yeah!" Jack says.

"Okay, so stimulus like that is what will bring your memory back. That's good to know." Ethan says, "Well, we need to return to the apartment. We'll figure out how to jog it some more there."

"Wait, didn't you say you would show me around?" Jack asks Ethan.

"Ah right. I did tell you that, didn't I? Sigh..." Ethan puts his hand on his forehead. "Great... Welp!" Ethan claps his hands, "Guess a tour of the city is in order!" Ethan exclaims, "Follow me I guess." Ethan and Jack walk down the street and stop at a bus stop. Getting on, the two travel around the city, with Ethan showing Jack sights that there are to see. Eventually the two stop traveling around and get off.

"What're we doing here?" Jack asks, as where they stopped isn't by the apartment.

"I remembered something I had to do." Ethan says. The two walks into a dark alleyway. Walking through it, they eventually come up to a door. It's against a brick wall. "Okay, stay out here. I have something I gotta do." Ethan says as he enters. Jack stands outside, thinking to himself.

"Hmm... What would he need to do here?" Jack asks himself. "This place is a bit shady." Eventually a few people walk up to Jack.

"Are you a member here?" One of them asks Jack.

"Member of what?" Jack asks.

"The fighting ring." He says.

"Fighting ring? Is that what this place is? No, I'm not a part of it. I was just accompanying someone who said they had something to do here." Jack says.

"Huh. You're not with the police, right? This isn't exactly the most legal thing." He says.

"No, I'm not. I frankly don't even know what the police are." Jack says.

"Heh Darrien, I think he's playing dumb." Another one says, "Which he is really bad at."

"Yeah, maybe he is." Darrien says, "Let's tussle, eh?"

"Tussle?" Jack asks, "Now now, can't we handle this civilly? You know, like mature adults..." Jack backs away from them.

"Yeah right! You're a bad actor!" He rushes at Jack and punches him. Jack barely moves however, getting slightly nudged. "Heh. How was that?!" He exclaims. Jack looks around awkwardly.

"I barely felt it." Jack says.

"Huh? Stop messing with me!" He yells, throwing another punch. This time in the face. Jack once again barely moves.

"Wow, you're bad at this." Jack says. As the guy throws another punch, Ethan exits, counting money that's in his hand. He looks up at the fight.

"What the...?" Ethan asks.
