Hospital scene

(Pitch black outside)

Laurel twists and turns in her sleep while Rhonny stares blankly at the ceiling.

Across the street Gunner is watching through his rifle. He follows the nurses outside of the room down the hall before turning his attention back to their room.

Lurking in the shadows cloaked in darkness, Shadow stands as still as a statue with his sights set on the front entrance.

Warehouse scene

Johnny wakes up disoriented and feeling drained. He rolls over onto his chest and opens his eyes to a horrifying sight.

Johnny catches sight of the masked man,"You did this didn't you?"

"No," he responds while raising his right arm, "But I did do this."

Johnny soars backwards into the wall with incredible speed and force, "The hell just happened?" He thinks to himself.

"That was telekinesis and this, this is my telepathy."

Hospital scene

Rhonny gets up and makes his way over to the bathroom, "Why you up so early,?" he turns to see Laurel wide awake.

"Haven't really been able to sleep. Besides the pain, there's also the fact that I was murdered last week."

"I was also murdered but I'm passed it. I just want to know why I was brought back along with you two. There's no similarities between us at all and yet we're somehow connected. So, how's it feel to be frozen to death?"

"Cold."

Across the street Gunner is drinking a beer and watching through binoculars. He's startled when someone places a hand on his shoulder. "I need to put a bell on you," he says as he realizes that it's just Shadow.

"Our mission to protect these two might get more difficult."

"Why's that?"

"One of the number agents was found murdered along with her squadron. Their prime suspect is Johnny."

"There's no fucking way that guy took down a number."

"I'll be leaving to investigate while you keep an eye on those two. Do me a favor and don't shoot up the place."

Gunner smirks and heads over to the window, "Shut up and go find the real killer," Gunner lays down and looks through the rifle with his hands ready to fire.

"What do you know about Johnny, I didn't really get a chance to know him before he took off," Rhonny says as he gets back in bed.

"He has a ton of money but he doesn't seem like a stuck up rich kid. I mean he's room is a fucking library for crying our loud. He's also attending Harvard university so that's something. I just hope he's got more to offer than just being smart."

Rhonny turns his head towards the window catching a glimpse of lightning.

Across the street Gunner's line of sight is blurred due to the pouring rain. He sits down in a chair in the center of the room. He opens his duffle bag and places a black box to his left before taking out a laptop. After a few minutes of typing hundreds of flies come out of the box make their way towards the hospital.

Police Station scene

Revy walks into an interrogation room and sits across from Johnny who's handcuffed to the chair. She places three folders on the table, "I know you didn't kill number 93, there's no way in hell someone like you could kill in such a way. Here's the deal, you're working with my best friend so it's up to me to make sure that you're not gonna harm her. It's now my job to look into your past. Either you leave this room in chains or free. Either I kill you or give you freedom. Let's get started."
