Grayson:The Ronin Protocol

Chapter 22:Hiatus

4 weeks later Jason's eyes slowly open as he awakens in his bedroom lying in his bed hooked up to an IV, seeing his parents standing in the corner of the room before they vanish. His broken Multi-tool lay on the nightstand beside him along with his retro emitters,he tries sitting up in bed only to groan in pain. He feels his chest to not feel a scratch let alone a wound on his flesh. He assuredly said It was just a dream as he sees Ephraim sleeping in the chair across from his bed, Jay's entire body feels like a blender as he vibrates at super speed sinking through his bed. Falling through the ceiling and Smashing through the Kitchen table landing on the floor, groaning in pain.

He weirdly said what the fuck is happening right now?, Rose loudly said Who's there?!! You broke into the wrong house asshole as a targeting grid sits on Jason's chest Rose stands in the kitchen's doorway pointing a .44 magnum at him. Jason assuredly said Grandma it's Kar put the gun away please don't Fuckin' almost shoot me again!. The kitchen lights remotely turn on As Rose slips her revolver into her thigh holster, and walks over to Kar. She slaps him on the back of his head As she hugs tightly him She curiously said What are you doing up??, What happened to the table?, Also watch your damn mouth boy!. Jason lyingly said I was grabbing a midnight snack and I slipped on an ice cube and smashed through the table I'm sorry about the table. How'd I get home? What exactly happened to me Gam Gam?

Rose assuredly said Kar I don't give two rats asses about the table that table can easily be replaced but you can't be, Plus we were overdue for a new one anyway. As far as what happened you were struck by lightning in Central Park a few weeks ago according to Dr.Nixon, you were in and out of consciousness for 4 whole weeks. You had quite the fan club stop by Doc came to see you, Eve from church, Dr.Wells from Harbinger Labs stopped by to see you, Detective Macaroni came by, Someone named Robert he said he was an old friend of yours. Mike, Father Frank And someone else did too but I can't remember who, but Robert told me to tell you to give him a ring on the holo whenever you woke up. Jason curiously said Robbie stopped by did he leave you his number to give me Gam Gam? He stares at her with intrigue on his face and in his eyes, Rose assuredly said Yeah it's on the fridge somewhere on one of the sticky notes. I'm glad you're okay Jason we're gonna have to get you a personal force field generator or something Cause we can't keep losing you to accidents like this this is the 2nd time since you've been home. You know that you can always talk to me about anything Right?, You never have to hide anything from me, anything you want to talk about?. She stares into Jay's eyes with concern and warmth on her face and in her eyes.

Jason assuredly said I... I know Gam Gam I can always talk to you about anything I just don't have anything to tell you. Other than that I'm happy to be back home where I belong I'm uh gonna go back to sleep now Okay grandma?. Rose assuredly said Okay Kar just remember that me,grandpa and everyone else are always here for you Okay??. Jason assuredly said Okay, Night as he runs out the kitchen shooting upstairs Rose sincerely said good night Jason. Jay walk's past A bedroom to see Tommy knocked out on his bed with a photo album scroll laying open on the floor, displaying a picture of Jason,Tommy,Drew Richard,Nicole and Mike on vacation in Bangkok standing in front of a large temple.

Jay assuredly says I miss them too. As he re enters his room to no longer see his grandfather laying in his lounge chair. But seeing him sleeping in his grandparents room across the hall Jay stares at the holographic note sitting on his nightstand it reads "I've a few leads on where Silas could be Don't know if you'll ever wake up or not. But I'll find him no matter how long it takes, figured I'd keep you updated Coma or otherwise. Your family will get the Justice y'all are owed stop by my office whenever you wake up "- J.Macaroni P.S if anyone can survive being in a lightning induced coma it's you Jason.

Jay drops back into bed quickly losing consciousness. He run's through the dimly lit streets of New Yorkoyo chasing after a shadow, The unknown Person wears a unseen uniform Jay sees A golden Yin & Yang symbol on their chest. The Person runs at Superhuman Speed zipping through the streets Jay runs alongside the Man matching his speed, he yells who're you! What the hell do you want from me?!. The Man's distorted voice assuredly said He's coming You must prepare, for the battle of your life or all you hold dear will perish. Neon green lightning flows off the man's entire body as Jason tackles him sending them both smashing through 4 parked cars. Shooting through the ground leaving a trail of asphalt and rubble in their wake. The Man stares Jason in the eyes paralyzing him in seconds, Jason sees the man's neon green eyes glow brighter blinding him and bathing him in his green light. Jason gasp's up out of his sleep, Covered in sweat and heavily breathing as fear crawls up his legs and crawls around inside his chest. He says What The Fuck is happening to my life? What did that dream mean?? Was that night in Central Park with Clark all a dream?. His eyes dart over to his dresser seeing A familiar blood soaked envelope sitting atop it. 2 hours later at The Wolf Den Jay strikes a Wooden Wing Chun Dummy As Vicky stands a few feet away from him. Twirling her hair and blowing digital bubblegum
