Ashlyn's POV:
It feels weird... this feels so familiar... last year the exact same thing happened. I didn't think it would come back, especially to someone like him.

(Flashback: 2016, Ashlyn's POV)

"Let me go! I don't need you, you're are worthless!" She yelled very loud that I think most of the island heard.

"Calm down, we're only trying to help," said my dad. This accident was devastating to many, luckily, not many people died. It took a full year but we all fell because of her strength and power. She continued to yell and roar; I had never seen my sister like this before.

"If you don't let go, I'll make sure to hell you don't see the fricken sun away!"

(Present day, Cont. Ashlyn's POV)

I gasped, I was shock to hear that back then Angel said nearly the exact same sentence as RoPo. Both were indeed under Antivort's control, it makes a little sense. I was in the detention center in the HQ, RoPo had woken up a few minutes ago; he was still angry. At least he wasn't yelling.

"RoPo, please look at us. We don't want to hurt you," I said calmly.

"That's a complete lie, you hurt me to save that bastards life," he said angry, "You rather care for his injuries than mine?! He is useless now! He can't be much use is he's bound to a fricken wheelchair!"

"And why am I here? I still care for you, yeah it's true that Jack isn't much use. He can still be useful," I said, his argument did have a good point. He turned over to me, I was a bit scared. That face reminds me so much of Angel, when she's angry anyway.

"What's he doing here?" He asked as he looks at Jack.

"He said he wants to talk to you, I'm a go now."

Jack's POV:
I want to know more of why RoPo cracked his happy shell. He was fine a few hours ago, I couldn't see him but I knew he had the threatening look on his face still.

"You know I wouldn't lie about this. Glass got into my eyeballs... but I know it wasn't you."

"How?" He asked threatening, "Of course it was me, you dip-shit! Who else would it be?!"

"We told you it was Antivort posing as you, it ain't nothing more than that."

"All of this was my fault, I know it is! If I had showed up to TT's place three years ago..." I knew he was crying, I heard him whimpering. He plead guilty, though I was pretty happy that he accepted his actions, I knew it wouldn't fly well with him.

"Hey, what's done in the past can't be changed. Don't worry, we'll get through it, I know we will. We always do," I said as I smiled. He stopped crying, I knew he looked at me looking depressed. I laughed a little.

"Why are you laughing at a time like this?"

"It's just weird seeing you in a strain jacket, also I'm laughing because you admitted what you wouldn't three years ago." I heard RoPo gasp, I was still laughing but then, he laughed. It's been a while since I heard him laugh like that.

"Why are you laughing?"

"I'm laughing with you, bro. You're right, we'll get through it together." I felt a smile on RoPo, I smiled back.

"Jack? The doctor is calling you for the surgery," said Angel as she walked in.

"Ok, can I ask you something, Angel?"

"What?"

"Can you let RoPo out that jacket?"

"Ok, he looks more happy now anyway."

Angel's POV:
Jack's surgery lasted hours, two days to be exact. The surgery wasn't done yet, the doctors were trying to get his vision back. I walked over to the detention center with a bowl of soup, after taking out the strain jacket of RoPo, he fell asleep. Yesterday I gave him a blanket, I don't think he felt me in there. I approach his cell and knocked on the glass for his attention.

"Hey RoPo, you hungry?" He groaners a bit as he woke up, "Hey sleepyhead? You slept a good while, didn't you?"

"You sound like my mom, it's weird?"

"We use to be friends, I have the right to act like this," I said as I gave RoPo the bowl. He immediately began to eat.

"Man, who made this? It's so good," he said with his mouth full.

"It's an old family recipe, from my mom's side. I made it, it's just a soup, nothing special."

"Are you sure? This could get a a five star rating! I'm sure."

"Yeah, I doubt that."

"You're always doubtful," he said in a small annoyed tone. I giggled a bit, classic RoPo, he never changes.

"Anyway, if you're done eating, you can leave the cell. Just don't to outside just yet, orders from Fury. Man he is always so bossy." RoPo gave a thumbs up. I walked out of the room, though Fury didn't want anyone going out there, I wasn't following. I'm the rebel in the family, I need to look for clues.

That bastard ain't running away again.

RoPo's POV:
I walked to my room after eating that amazingly good soup. I went to my closet and pulled out my spare sweater from it. The other was kinda ruined thanks to RoPo.EXE, he owes me a new sweater. I looked in the mirror as I put on my sweater. It gave me more confidence to myself, I smiled and left my room. During my absence, Jack was still in surgery. I was able to see him from the observation room. I looked to my left and saw something robot-like. It got me worried but I assumed it was for Jack's vision, so I was more relaxed.

"Didn't expect you to be here," said Alex.

"Well, I was seeing how my best friend was doing."

"How are you feeling after that?"

"Alright, I'm really feeling like my usual self," I said with a smile.

"Care to join me to watch the afternoon news?"

"Yeah, why not." We both walked to the living room and Alex grabbed us some drinks. It was nice spending time with a close family after all this time. The news played, most of it was boring, sports and other shit.

"Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen, we now give you status on the White House's condition to this disaster. Tell us Ronny, what is the story?"

"Thank you George, the President has sent an emergency broadcast over the last few days. He has been in contact with the world leaders discussing this matter of crisis. I'm here with an agent to tell us anything else."

"George, it's hell in there. What I know is that the President's number one priority is to protect the citizens. The stakes are high, there's no telling... oh wait give me a second. (Gasp) oh no... it seems as our enemy had targeted the White House. She proclaims that she is going to kill someone. I must go, goodbye George."

"Well, there you go studio. Now I must get inside, this has gone too..." I turned off the TV, I was in deep shock.

"Alex... she's going for the president. We need to save him," I said as I ran out.

"RoPo, where the hell are you going?! Fury said..."

"Swear it! I'm going, tell him to send backup quickly!"
