As Rob walks the streets of Paris alone, he nearly makes it to his apartment before problems arise. He's outside his front door, when he hears a sound thats sends a chill down his back. Voices. Familiar ones. Then Rob hears a gun go off, and he draws his desert eagle pistol before kicking the door open. He sees two men in hoods, and kills them on the spot. What he finds scares him to death. It was one of his good friends, Danielle. She was tied up and gagged. "What are you doing here? Where's Jared at?" he asked while untying her. "Jared actually doesn't know I'm here, I had to give you this." she says, handing him a voice recorder. Rob looks worried and snatchees the recorder, before he helps danielle to her feet, taking her to the hospital shortly afterwards. While Danielle is getting fixed up Rob, waits outside talking to Jared on his phone. He was very happy and upset at the same time. "How could I let this happen" Jared said, his head in his hands. "Dude, it's not your fault, you didn't know any of this would happen. I'm going to take her home, I already have the plane tickets. I'll take her home, and then find who did this. I've already got a pretty good idea." Rob replies. "Deathstroke?" Jared asks "Yeah" Rob replies and hangs up the phone. Rob pulls out the recorder and hits play, Two men were talking one was obviously Deathstroke and the other was an unknown man. "They have ruined our plans" Deathstroke had said No they have merely just stalled us is all" Said the mysterious man. danielle has finished being fixed up and is now walking around with a crutch. "where did you get this?" Rob asked "look Rob, after all that crazy stuff happened three years ago, I decided to pick up some skills and became a spy, I was following a lead and stumbled upon these two talking. After I recorded their message and was prepared to leave I was knocked out from behind and dragged to what I now know is your apartment." Danielle replies. Rob just looked at her trying very hard not to turn this into an interrogation "when you woke up do you remember what they were saying." he says "ummm...... I couldn't make it out because they were speaking french." she replies "alright come on you're going home." Rob says as they both leave for the airport

Once they were boarded and all settled in, Rob's mind began to zone out. It had been three years since the catastrophe of the apocalypse, everything had changed so fast, whatever zombies were left were killed off as the governments of the world banded together once they got some footing in the ground again. After Rob left the group, all his friends had basically went their separate ways. Rob felt something shaking his arm he looks over and it was Danielle trying to get Rob to come back to reality. "Rob..hey Rob, snap out of it we are about to land in Charleston" Danielle said. "Ugh...what..oh ya im good" Rob said shaking his head, just then they were interrupted by the voice on the comm of the plan. "Ugghhh folks....we are about to land in about five minutes, please buckle up". The belt buckle light went on everyone snapped on their belts, but before the pilot could turn off the intercom, there was a battle cry. Kind of scream, and you could hear the sound of flesh being torn from the body. Rob would never forget that sound. "YOU ARE ALL GOING TO DIE, THIS WORLD IS DOOMED STARTING WITH YOU!!! FOR DEA-" a man yelled in a psychopathic, screaming voice as the intercom cut out. The plane began to nose dive to the ground, Rob with the super strength he had tried to undo his belt, but of course it got jammed he pulled with all his might and tore it out. Rob must have forgotten about gravity for he flew to the ceiling and got stuck. He was able to reach into his pocket and pull out his phone to dial Jared "JARED MOTHERFUCK- PLANE- DANIELLE- CRASH-" then the phone cut out. "ROB, DANIELLE" Jared yelled as he was already trailing the plane his friends were in. He had a new Batwing since his old one was destroyed in the apocalypse. Jared souped it up, he activated a laser gun that came out from the bottom and shot a beam strong enough to disintegrate the top of the plane. Since Rob was stuck to the top of the plane he went flying out the back. Jared launched a parachute at Rob at high enough speeds to keep up with him as he fell. Jared knew that he might not be able to save everyone, he had an idea. Jared pulled a choke in the cockpit of his plane and it launched four giant parachute packs. Two in the front and two in the back on either side, hoping the plane would slow down enough for the landing.

The landing was rough but everyone was fine with a lot of whiplash. Jared jumped out of the batwing, gliding down to the plane making sure everyone was ok. He got to Danielle and pulled out his signature bat knife that could cut through up to anything but diamond. He sliced off the jammed belt buckle. "Danielle are you ok?" Jared asked "Ya im fine just a little shaky, what the hell even happened" Danielle replied. "Ill explain when we get back to the batcave, right now we have to go get Rob about a mile back". With that Jared handed Danielle a spare grapple gun, they shot up to the Batwing and began to head back to where Rob was. "wait what about the passengers, they look pissed" Danielle asked "don't worry i already contacted a rescue team and authorities for terrorism to their location and when i disintegrated the top of the plane, it melted the door to the cockpit locking the terrorist inside" Jared replied.

They found Rob who was looking up at the Batwing laughing while flipping Jared off. Jared landed the batwing and opened the hood. "What the hell man, you burn my back, throw me out of a plane and launch a fucking parachute pack at me, this was a fuckin expensive leather jacket" Rob says to Jared rather pissed. They shook hands "Nice to see you too old friend, and ill buy you a new fuckin leather jacket, for now we need to get back to the batcave and talk. In the past three years i've been relaxing, training, and building new vehicles and weapons, but lately I've been researching new threats for i heard what the terrorist said on your plane, and i interrogated a group of terrorists a week back that seem to tie in with what the man on the plane said. Now lets get in the Batwing". With that they proceeded to the vehicle. "are you truly worthy" a voice spoke into Rob's head, Rob stopped in place and turned around, "Hey are you alright" Jared asked as he was stepping up to the cockpit. "Ya im fine" and Rob began turned back around and started walking again. When they got back to the batcave and were standing around a table "Rob i thi-" Jared was interrupted "i already know what you're going to say, and i have been thinking the same thing..." "Rob is it who i think it is..i've been thinking with the two men we seen three years ago, i've been putting the pieces together. When i was listening to the terrorist on your plane i missed the last part, it cut out, the last thing i heard was "FOR" "is it-" Jared asked "Yes...i think its... Deathstroke" Rob replied scared and shakily.
