Mask (pt. 3)

I step out of the shower and look into the mirror and look at my reflection I look deep into my blue eyes and then thinks of what happened, then i tussle my wet black long hair and water the water fly around and land on the slightly foggy mirror and walls and I sigh. I look at the deep cut on my arm and notice it is deeper then i thought as I can clearly see the bone, I start to get concerned so I walk out to Amy who looks up at me. "oh my look at my big strong man coming out her wet and partly naked." She says and pokes my nose at the same time, I sit down on the bed and point to my gaping cut. "look at this, don't you think I should get it checked out?" I ask looking her in her eyes and she avoids my gaze and slowly puts her arms behind her back, "But......... its gross and deep it creeps me out just looking at it, like that long hair you have on your left thigh." She exclaims out loud and I decide that looking at the floor is a better option, We set in awkward silence for a bit then I stand up again and put a Red T-shirt and blue jeans and starts to walk out the room. "Where are you going, babe?" She says as she tilts her head to the right side, "To get my cut checked out, don't want to maybe lose my arm." She walks up and hugs me and presses her head into my chest her head only coming up to my collar bone and I hug her back and smiles as she says in a muffled voice. "Take care Proton I hope all goes well and you'll only have to get stitches." After patting her head and waving bye I walk down to Bruno and asked for the keys to his car.

"why don't you use your own car, oh wait its at your house not mine isn't it!" Bruno says to me as I sit down at the counter, "Ya but you know my apartment is very boring and it doesn't have hating in it." I say as I fiddle with the salt and pepper shaker, "And it also doesn't have your very own German cook right?" He says as he grabs the car keys and I grab for them. "Ya but your cooking tastes like dead cow." I wiggle my fingers reaching for the keys that are just out of my reach, "what was that?" Bruno asks slowly pulling the keys back farther and I sigh and leans back in my chair. "fine ill also pick up some beer on the way home so can I can actually swallow the food." I say rolling my eyes and he drops the keys in my hands, "Good answer." He says as he goes back to fixing dinner and I walk out the door and into the car and starts to drive to the hospital. I pull into the parking lot and walk to the automatic doors and look up at the hospital name: 'Heartbloom Hospital' then I walk into the doors and talks to the nurse at the counters. "Yes I was wondering if I could possibly see a doc about a kind of hole, cut thing on my arm." I ask the nurse and she nods and I take a seat and look around and then up at the tv that is talking about the attack that happened, "It was through the help of a masked crusader that this young lady under the name of Jullia Waterson, the officials have not given us a update on the condition of either of them or the whereabouts of the attacker........." 

The reporter went on but I didn't care I typed Jullias name in my phone to remember it and wait and get my cut checked out and sewed up and I walk out and jump out the way of a incoming ambulance and I walk and slightly look and stop dead in my tracks and turns around. "T-the hell?" I say as i see the attacker being pulled out and he is struggling with them, "LET ME GO!!!!!!!!!! IMMA KILL HIM!!!!!!!!!! He yells kicking at the doctors and the police officers who are holding him down and I bolt to my car and get in and calls up Bruno. He answers and yawns, "What is it Proton its almost 9 at night, if its about the car you can take it to your home and sleep there if you need to no need take it back ill keep Amy company." He says not really listening to him as I watch them take the attacker into the building and I pull out and start to drive off. "ok look I need you to take my mask and overcoat and what not to me I need then I can catch that crazy attacker if you do." I say to him quickly driving a bit faster "lets meet up as quickly as we can I need to get to him before someone moves him else wear."  I say and Bruno agrees and we meet up in a old stores parking lot, and I grab the gear from him and nods. "Thanks Bruno, make sure Amy knows i'm alright so that she can sleep easily." I say putting the overcoat and mask on and he nods, "will do Yin." He says in to a ear piece and gets into his car and pulls out his laptop. "Ill stay here you go ill tell you if I see anyone or anything you cant." I nod and drive back to the hospital. 

I get there and wait til about sun set and I sneak in around back, "Ok Yin I checked the records and he is in this hospital under the name of Steven White and he is in room 5-B, so hes kind of far away from you Yin so keep on are a lot of the guards around the general are location Steven is at." I look around corners and see no one and I crouch and move around as quietly as I can sometimes looking up at the number plates then Yang rings in on my ear piece. "No no! your going the wrong way turn aroun......... WAIT!" But its too late I turn around and bump into a guard that walked around the near by corner and I look at them and grab there gun and kicks them and twist there arm and wack them in the head with the butt of the rifle. I grab them as they fall so they don't make too much sound and lays them down and crouch away to the corner and peaks out it and see a guard coming my way, so I wait and grabs him when hes near and punch him in the gut and rams his head into the near by wall and he slowly slumps down it out cold. I come to a T section of corners and looks down one and sees the lights are out and I see flashlights beams moving, "I think this is the right way to go isn't it Yang?" I ask pressing down the ear piece button.

 "yes it is and watch out there are a few guards down there, like 4 so try to not get shot ok?" I sigh and crouch down the hall and sees a rifle barrel poking out the corner and grab it and hit the guard in the face and bashes his back with the front of my knee and I cover his mouth as he moans a bit and goes limp and I hide him behind the corner. I see a guard turn and then I jump behind the corner and he speed walks to the corner and sweeps around it to see where I am and I uppercut him as he gets ready to yell for back up but still makes a slight scream sound that alerts them and I kick him into the wall and flings my knifes at them and they deflect them with there rifles and I pull on the wire and then fling back at me and I jump and slice into ones arm and I grab him by the head and flips him over my head and he hits the ground with a thud, and I Jump kick off the wall and smack the last guard in the head with my foot knocking him out in an instant. I land with a thud and roll and stops before I hit a door and i look up at it then at the door plate. "5-B, this is the room Yang he sure has a lot of security for a crazy man." I exclaim standing up and dusting off my back, "Ya he sure does why don't we go find out why." Yang says and I open the door and walk into the dark room and see a empty messed up bed with something black on it, I walk up to it and hear a skid and I try to turn around when I feel a knife to my neck and a wispier in my ear. "Naughty boy who said you could enter someones room without knocking?" Said the voice as they flick the handle of there knife on my mask.
