In the hushed tranquility of the early morning, the city of Emerald City slumbered beneath a blanket of darkness, its towering skyscrapers looming like silent sentinels against the star-studded sky. Amidst the stillness, the soft glow of streetlights cast ethereal shadows upon the deserted streets, painting a picture of serene solitude.

Within the confines of a taxi, Max and Luke embarked on their journey, the hum of the engine mingling with the gentle whispers of the night. Through the taxi's window, the sprawling city unfolded before them, its twinkling lights illuminating the urban landscape in a mesmerizing tapestry of colors.

Seated beside Max, Luke gazed out with wide-eyed wonder, his breath catching in his throat at the breathtaking sight. The towering skyscrapers seemed to reach for the heavens, their silhouettes etched against the inky darkness like ancient monoliths of a forgotten era.

As they traversed the winding streets, the city gradually began to fade into the distance, replaced by the open expanse of the highway stretching out before them like an endless ribbon of asphalt. The gentle rhythm of the taxi's movement lulled them into a state of tranquil contemplation, each passing moment filled with anticipation for the adventures that lay ahead.

With each mile traveled, the city lights grew dimmer, replaced by the soft glow of the moon overhead and the distant twinkle of stars scattered across the night sky. In the quiet solitude of the taxi, Max and Luke found themselves enveloped in a sense of camaraderie, their shared journey forging an unbreakable bond between them as they ventured into the unknown depths of the night.

Luke: "Where are we going? You didn't say anything."

Max: "Oh yeah, we're going to SunHaven to meet Doctor Paul."

Luke: "SunHaven! I've heard a lot about it. It's a beautiful place."

Max: "Yeah, you're right. There are beaches too!"

Luke: "By the way, who is Doctor Paul?"

Max: "I forgot to tell you about him. He's a scientist. He even gave me a lightsaber!"

Luke: "That's so cool, bro."

Max: "We need to talk without making much noise because the taxi driver might hear us."

Luke: "Yeah, sorry."

After some time, they reach SunHaven and check into a hotel. They inquire about their room number from the receptionist and head upstairs. Exhausted, they quickly fall asleep.

The next morning, Max wakes up and notices Luke still sleeping. He wakes Luke up, reminding him of their meeting with Doctor Paul. However, Luke declines, citing a headache and fever. Concerned, Max suggests that Luke stays in the room, and after confirming Luke's decision, Max heads downstairs.

He makes his way to Doctor Paul's new lab, where they discuss the recent events in Emerald City.

Max: "So, there's been happening many things in Emerald City!"

Doctor Paul: "Yeah, I heard about it! One of them was the disappearance of your friend Luke, right?"

Max: "Yeah, and a restaurant attack also happened while me and Luke were in the restaurant."

Doctor Paul: "Oh, I see. I think someone is behind all the attacks and someone is trying to destroy you. Have you figured out who that is?"

Max: "Yeah, I know. His name is Loki. I met him a few months ago. Don't you remember? I pushed him down from the top of a mountain?"

Doctor Paul: "Oh yeah, now I remember. You were going to get the medicinal plant, right? Emerald City was facing a zombie apocalypse during that time!"

Max: "Yup, and I met with some people who work for Loki. They even tried to trap me, but I managed to escape! Their names were Noah, Ava, and Aiden. Also, they told me that they are doing all this for Loki. So, I'm sure that he is the one behind all these attacks."

Doctor Paul: "Interesting. So, I think that Loki wants to kill you or he wants your powers."

Max: "So, how can we destroy him?"

Doctor Paul: "Uh, I'm sorry, but I need to tell you one thing. Loki is attacking Emerald City because of you. Since you became the superhero, the attacks broke out in Emerald City."

Max: "Oh no, I feel so guilty now. Just because of me, many people lost their lives and houses."

Doctor Paul: "I didn't want to make you feel bad."

Max: "It's okay. Is there any way that I can get rid of my powers so I can save people from the threat of Loki?"

Doctor Paul: "What? You're going to surrender to that bitch Loki?"

Max: "I'm not going to surrender. I'm doing this for the people of Emerald City. They will have to face a lot because of me!"

Doctor Paul: "If you really want to lose your powers, there is a magic spell you should repeat after me!"

They spell the magic together, and then Max feels that something is going out of his body, and he realizes his powers are leaving his body. Then it stops. Max now realizes he is an ordinary boy in Emerald City.

Doctor Paul: "I feel so bad for you because you decided to lose your powers."

Max: "It's okay. Emerald City will live in peace from now on, and the true owners of these powers were aliens, so it will go back to them."

Doctor Paul: "Your identity is not yet revealed to Emerald City that you are Shadow."

Max: "Can you do me a favor?"

Doctor Paul: "Sure, what is it?"

Max: "Make all the people forget that Shadow existed in this world! Do you have any magic spell for that?"

Doctor Paul: "Yes, I have, but are you sure that you wanna do this?"

Max: "I have taken this decision. Spell the magic, Dr. Paul!"

Doctor Paul: "Oh okay!"

Then Dr. Paul spelled the magic. Everybody in Emerald City forgot that Shadow existed.

Doctor Paul: "Hey, who are you?"

Max realized that even Dr. Paul forgot that he is Shadow, the superhero.

Max: "Uh, hey, I just want an electric shock gun!"

Doctor Paul: "Okay, it will be 200 dollars."

Max: "Alright, here, take the money!"

Doctor Paul then gave him the electric shock gun. He put it in his bag.

Max: "Okay, Dr. Paul, have a great day."

Then he walked out of the lab. Dr. Paul then screamed from the back, "Have a great day you too!"

Max then reached his hotel and gave Luke some medicines. Luke was okay at that time, and Max lied to him that they came here to watch a basketball game.

At night, Loki was making a gun. He was very busy at his underground base. Loki then felt like someone was standing behind him. He looked back and he was shocked. A guy who was wearing gloves, hat, and a long black jacket was standing behind him.

Loki: "Hey!!! Who are you???"

Guy: "You don't need to know who am I."

As the mysterious figure drew out an electric shock gun and aimed it at Loki, the tension in the underground base grew palpable. With a swift motion, the gun discharged, sending a crackling surge of energy through the air. Loki staggered backward, his eyes widening in shock before collapsing to the ground. Silence enveloped the chamber as Loki lay motionless, his fate uncertain.

Time seemed to stand still as the figure in the black clothes stood over Loki's prone form, the faint hum of the electric shock gun echoing in the cavernous space. With an enigmatic glance, the figure dropped the weapon to the ground, its metallic clang reverberating through the silence. Without a word, the figure melted into the shadows, leaving behind an air of mystery and intrigue.

In the aftermath of the encounter, the Emerald City remained oblivious to the identity of their savior. Whispers of uncertainty filled the streets as rumors spread of a shadowy guardian lurking in the shadows. Yet, despite the uncertainty, a sense of relief washed over the city as the threat of villains and evil forces faded into obscurity. With the dawn of a new era, the Emerald City basked in the tranquility of newfound peace, unaware of the unseen forces that had intervened on their behalf.
