—Matt's Apartment—

Matt came home after what happened in the Dojo. Danny said he would pay for all the damages the snipers did to the Dojo which made Matt feel bad. Now with a contract on his head, Daredevil may be resting for the next few weeks.

Someone knocked on his door and it was Foggy. He had two paper bags with him as he walked inside Matt's apartment. He placed it on the table and sighed.

"So Daredevil has a contract for his death now," Foggy said, "What's your plan?"

"I won't wear the suit, Foggy. I can't." Matt exhaled in frustration.

"What it Fisk is playing you? What if he knows that Matt Murdock and Daredevil are the same person." Foggy argued but Matt couldn't answer, "Soon, people will be focusing on Matt Murdock and not Daredevil."

"Give me some time."

"How about not wearing the suit at all?"

"Not an option." Matt sat on the couch, "If I give up the suit, who's going to protect Hell's Kitchen?"

"Tony Stark."

"Tony Stark?" Matt repeated and scoffed, "He's going to bring his problems with him."

"Like what?"

"If he's going to get involve, the people he cares about will be in danger. Ms. Potts, his assistant and Peter Parker."

"What about Peter Parker?"

"He's Spider-Man. I could sense it from a mile away." Matt stood up and looked out the window, "Besides, Stark is too busy with the Accords. He's trying to get rid of it."

"He's not going to bring Steve Rogers back with that."

"Aren't we discussing about the contract?"

"What else is there to discuss, Matt? Your second life is dead. No one can come back to that."

Matt hit the wall with his elbow in anger. He glanced at Foggy and walked pass by him to the chest. He placed his father's garments to the side and brought the chest out. Foggy waited until Matt came out of the bedroom with his Daredevil suit on.

"What the hell are you doing?" Foggy asked with annoyance.

"Making a name for myself." Matt smirked and walked up to the roof exit.

"You still have some coffee and bagel over here."

"Leave it inside the refrigerator." Matt answered, closing the door.

Matt stood over another bar where he sensed that there were people inside with plans. Plans to cut the head of Daredevil. To give the mask of Daredevil to Fisk to claim their money. Matt was going to show them how hard it will be.

But he sensed that there was something off. He did a backflip to dodge two knives that were being thrown at him. When Matt turned around to sense who it was, it was a ex-military who has been turned into an assassin. He could sense fresh blood on his jacket.

"You know," The man talked while looking at his knives, "I have a reputation of not missing."

"Some people have their off nights." Matt smirked.
