{Manhattan, New York 14 years later)
Adan Valentine- (To the reader) "Let me ask you something. Have you ever had a really bad day before? Probably. Well, this was my bad day or bad week I should say and yes this is called a fourth wall break. Now please sit back and allow me to tell you my insane story that happened this week. Are you ready? Because here we go."
One week ago. People walk down the street near an insurance building. Inside of the building, a muscular man named Tim Code sits at a desk talking to a woman while holding a paper. Tim stamps the paper as Adan slides in on a chair with wheels.
Tim Code- (Looks at the woman) "I can guarantee whatever you need Mr. Valentine will be there for you Miss. Kale."
Miss. Kale- (Looking at Tim) "Are you sure? He doesn't look that great of an insurance agent."
Adan slides behind Tim's desk and falls over and hits the ground.
Adan Valentine- (While on the ground) "Ow. I heard that."
Tim Code- (Calmly) "I promise he'll get your insurance done."
Miss. Kale- (Looks at Adan then Tim) "OK. If you say he can because if he can't I'll make a complaint."
Adan stays lying on the ground looking at the ceiling.
Tim Code- (Looks at Adan on the ground. Looks back at Miss. Kale) "Will do. (Shakes her hand) Thank you for coming Miss. Kale, you're welcome to come back tomorrow for your insurance claim."
Miss. Kale gets up from her chair and walks towards the door. While leaving Tim looks down at Adan while standing up.
Tim Code- "I can't believe you."
Adan Valentine- "What?"
Tim Code- "I can't believe you acted like that in front of our client Miss. Kale."
Adan Valentine- (Crosses arms while on the floor) "Well I didn't like the way she was talking to you."
Tim Code- (Walks over to a filing cabinet) "She's seventy-three years old Adan. What was the problem with her tone?"
Adan Valentine- "I don't know, she just had this little whistle to her voice."
Tim Code- (Walks over to him) "Look, Adan, she's an old lady that lost her son in the military and her grandson is in the hospital right now and she came to you. Why do you think she did that?"
Adan Valentine- "I don't know. Now allow me to ask you a question. Why the hell am I an accountant when I'm already rich?"
Tim Code- "Because you need the money."
Adan Valentine- (Looks up at him while on the floor) "Why do I need the money? I own Micro-labs. After mom and dad died fourteen years ago it was passed to me when I turned eighteen."
Tim Code- "I know but as you bodyguard and your best friend I ask you to be normal for once, be what your parents would want you to be."
Valentine sits up while Tim talks to him.
Adan Valentine- "You said I have to grow up?"
Tim Code- "Yeah, you don't act grown up at all."
Adan Valentine- "Well in that case (stands up) let's go."
Tim Code- (Sitting on the corner of his desk) "But wait where are we going?"
Adan Valentine- (Opening the door) "We're getting drinks."
Tim Code- "But what about work?"
Adan Valentine- (From the hallway) "It can wait."
Tim stands up and follows Adan out of the room and down the flight of stairs.
Adan Valentine- "I don't have to worry about money being an issue, you see I have been thinking. I get money from people making new discoveries every day and so they get paid for it as well. (Walking outside) SO why have a job if you own one of the largest facilities in the world?"
Tim Code- "Ah, I see where you're getting at. Just one question. DOn't you remember what happened back in the 80's?"
Adan Valentine- "No, what happened?"
Tim Code- (While walking down the street) "Exactly, back in 1984 one of your father's employees was killed after an incident with a new discovery of sand from Egypt."
Adan Valentine- (While entering back seat of his car) That sounds kinda cool, really it does."
Tim Code- (Entering the driver seat of the car) "Not cool, she later came back to life and went haywire, killing hundreds of people, and calling herself Psycho Sand."
They sat in the car while talking.
Adan Valentine- (Calmly) "That sounds even cooler."
Tim Code- (Faces forward) "I give up on talking to you, I could never get through to you ever. (Sighs) Where to Mr. Valentine?"
Adan Valentine- "What about Jack's bar?"
Tim Code- (Starts the car) "Yes sir."
Tim drives the car down the street and turns left on another street.
In a building a hole opens up on a wall scaring the people in the area, a man with a black and orange striped suit walks out. The hole shuts behind him. "My names Adan heartbreak now tell me where I can find this new Adan." the man exclaimed. People looked on in fear as Adan stepped closer to them.
Adan Heartbreak- "I said (Screams) my name is Adan Heartbreak. Tell me where Mr. Valentine is."
A woman steps forward.
Woman- "We don't know of any Mr. Valentine or any Adan."
Adan Heartbreak- "No? Well, then you all deserve a nice relaxing seat... in hell."
Heartbreak lifts his hands as the room began filling with gas, a hole opens behind him. He begins to walk in the hole while he snaps his finger, an explosion goes off killing everyone in the building. Entering another dimension Heartbreak looks on as the world replays the fire over and over again in this world.
Adan Heartbreak- "Where are you, Adan?"
An echo spoke back to him saying over here. He looks to his right and walks over to it with another hole opening in the air. He enters through it and sits there looking at a line of people dressed like himself each with their own color pattern. Some of them had green and yellow or black and blue, upon hundreds of Adan's the only color missing was pink and red.
Adan Heartbreak- "All I'm missing is Valentine and I can rule the multiverse."
