Special Agent Jessica Jones was walking down the streets of Chicago. She wiped her brow and pulled her hat down lower across her face. Jones was suffering under the 103 degrees heat while on the job. Jones' had almost gotten to the Russian Ambassador's home when Zachary stepped out from behind the shadows.
    "Hello again CIA officer Jones." Zachary said with a hint of a smirk on his face.
    "Goodbye Zachary." Jones said, trying to slip by him. Agent X was supposed to slip her the name of her current project soon.
    "Going somewhere?" Zachary stepped in Jones's way.
    "No, I'm wandering the streets for no reason." She replied smoothly.
    "I see."
    "Excuse me, have a lovely day." Jones said, again trying to step past him.
    "Well, Ms. Jones, I cannot do that." Zachary replied calmly while Jones raised her eyebrows. I don't have time for this she thought.
    "You see, if I let you go, you will kill-" but before Zachary could finish his sentence, his face went pale, as if he had seen a ghost.
    "Zachary?" Jones said questionly.
    "Jessie, is that Dominic Waals?" mumbled Zachary, staring off behind Jones's head.
    Slowly, Jones turned around and looked. When she saw him, when she saw Dominic, her old friend and partner, the one who was thought to be dead, she too turned pale.
    "Yes, that is Dom's face." Jones stuttered.
    "Jessie what does this mean?" Zachary whispered.
    "I don't know."
    "I-I thought they killed him."
    "Me too."
    Very special agent Jessica Jones and former special agent Zachary Paul stood on the street, holding onto each other as if their lives depended on it, and maybe, just maybe, they did.
