Her eyes flashed opened. She was bound to something and her hands had been encased inside something. Suspended in air all she could see was the shadows of the never ending room. Almost as though she came back to life Jane forced a pulse through the things that held her captive but it did nothing. Struggling in an attempt to break or even bend it still did nothing. Hearing the tapping of shoes echoing the room Jane's ears folded back as they showed themselves.

"So much spirit for a former prisoner especially for Phantom's liking."

Jerking suddenly Jane's eyes glowed blue. "Where are they?" She growled.

"They are all dead Black Sheep. No one is coming to save you." He said with a sharp tongue.

The ma stood and looked at her, dressed in a clean grey suit with a purple tie around his neck.

"Please call me Dagger." He gave a greedy smile. "Now you have something I want. Where's the medallion?"

"You don't have the strength to handle it."

Sighing the man ran his fingers through his hair, paused for a moment and chuckled slightly. "You have no clue who I am?"

"Perhaps if you come a little closer I could see you better."

"You see this yellow line? This is the the same distance to the surface. Construction work is above so no once can hear you and if you try to generate a pulse to kill me you also kill those people above you as well. I heard your oath of abandoning your thirst for blood. Such a shame, you were an excellent executioner."

"What do you want from me? Why lock me up just to chat my ear off Dagger? You want payment then I'll do a job for you, one last time."

"I'll consider your offer but that medallion is what I truly desire."

"You know exactly why I can't give it to you." Jane hissed.

"Yes...your afraid that the dream one of your little friends had will come true. I'll come up with something but in the mean time make your self comfortable Sheep."

Rozin slowly got up. Her head pounded in her ears and the bright lights made her head worse. The one Jane had called Batman was there along with Flash. Both were in costume.

"What can you tell us about what happened?"

Finally get upright Rosin looked confused. "What do you mean 'what happened'? The last thing I remember is Cisco talking about some place called Jitters and needing a break."

Her eyes grew wide and she frantically looked around. "Where's B? Where is Jane?" Jumping off the bed Rosin felt a pain run through her side. Gripping the side she winced as Barry helped her back on.

"We need to find her."

"Why? Do you know who did this?"

"No so stop pegging me like the enemy. Black Sheep...Jane...she has information that in the wrong hands would lead to the destruction of all." Rosin said angrily.

"What do you mean?"

"She wasn't a subject like the rest of us, she was experiment 368 of project Ivory. That's why she was never killed. They wanted to control the beast."
