>The day before<

Chris was on the couch when he heard his stomach growl. He got up and walked into the kitchen to find something to eat, he found nothing. He looked at the time.

'I can do some light food shopping before Ash gets back.' He grabbed his coat and keys. He got out of the house and walked to his jet black Hyundai Elantra. He was driving to the store but someone walks in front of him and he swerves to dodge the person, he hit a pole with his car. The person walks over to the car and pushes his unconscious body into the passenger seat. The mysterious person pulls the car away from the pole and fixes it with her powers. The person gets into the driver's seat and drives off.

The mysterious person drives until she arrives at an abandoned warehouse. The warehouse was old and looked like it was falling apart, there are holes in the walls and ceiling. The person parked the car and opened the car door. The light in the car came on and revealed that the mysterious person was Kate. She walked to the passenger's side and opened the door. She pulled Chris out and dragged him inside. Inside the warehouse was this table in the center that had restraints built into it. She dragged his body to the table and put him on it. She put him in the restraints and backed off. Someone soon appeared in the room by teleporting. It was the person Ash saw in her mind and the person who gave Pacifica her powers. She slowly walked over to Chris' unconscious body.

"Good job Kate. If only Pacifica knew that I could use her puppets as well. Hehe." She walked over to Kate.

"I have done as you asked."

"You have. I want you to stay, someone has to clean up the mess."

"Yes mistress." Kate notices Chris starting to wake up. "He's getting up."

"So it seems." The unnamed villain turned and walked towards his body. He slowly wakes up and notices where he is at. He notices that he is in an abandoned warehouse and that he's stuck to the table.

"Chris, it's so good to see you again. How is Ash?" Chris freezes in fear.

"H-how a-are you back?" He turns to look at her.

"Well if you must know, your daughter let me out. On accident mind you but she did it. Now I heard she is on a date currently and that she isn't going to be home. Is that true?" She was finally over to the table and staring at him.

"Why would I tell you?"

"Now now, you shouldn't be that rude to me. You do remember what happened to Catherine right?" Chris stared daggers at her.

"Don't you dare say her name, you have no right!"

"So you do remember, good. To think, her daughter would have her powers. Did you know that?"

"Of course I do, I was there when she gave them to Ash."
"That's great. How long was Catherine alive for after that, 3 days, a week? You have to tell me."

"I don't have to tell you anything Scarlet." He was furious.

"Well if you won't tell me then I will just read your mind." Scarlet placed her hand on Chris' forehead and began to read his memories. She read all of them and found what she was looking for. "So a week, that's a long time with everything that happened"
