“Look! This isn't even this bugger's house! Rick lives here!”
“Yeah, yeah big boy, that's a matter for when we get back to the station. Just put your hands behind your back, and this can all be over here and now.”

You give the surrounding area a quick glance to find that your gun is nowhere to be seen... and the thug is giving you another eerie smile.

Damn. This is going nowhere fast.

The other cop, Sherman, walks up to you, handcuffs at the ready – but before he's even taken his first step you're dashing down the sidewalk for all you're worth.


It's obvious the police aren't going to help you... and you still don't know what's up with...
This... these powers. What is it all about?
You need to find someone to help you with this crap.


You stop running to catch your breath... only to hear two, faint gunshots fire in quick succession from down the block.

“... ♥♥♥♥.”

You make a mad dash for the gunman, taking heavy fire as you clobber him in the face.

He falls on his ass as you tackle him to the floor. He throws a couple punches, but they bounce off of your iron hard skin.
You return the favor by punching him in the face, sending him into unconsciousness.

“Phew!”

You make a quick trip back to the cars, ready to explain yourself to Heather...
Only – she's... not there.


You look around... and see a flash of dress down one of the alleyways.

You turn back and walk towards Katrina.

… But a quick glance tells you that she's missing.
No blood stains. No corpse.

In fact, you had been trying not to look, but now that you do, you don't see a single dead body in the building.


People vanishing... murderous thugs... super powers...
“What in god's name is going on here?!”

Conditions

You curl up into a fetal position, nursing your skull.
… Your headache begins to fade, but only just.

You look around to the employee bathroom to see it spotless and clean.

… Odd. Weren't there brains splattered on the wall?


Before you finish the train of thought, you overhear a couple men chatting down the hall.

You crawl backwards, staring in horror at da-da, who is nonchalantly holding a pistol to your face – when your head bumps into something.
You look upwards to see the wimp from before, chuckling.

“You know kid, I'm pretty sure this is the part where you run.”


Goddamn.

You continue running, and whip out your cell to dial 911.

“911, what's your emergency?”
“I'd like to report a shooting.”
“Where did this shooting take place?”
“Uh... 6201 Holland Drive.”
“The police are on their way, please remain where you are, and stay calm. Did you see the shooting?”
“Yes. The shooter was male, and bald, with a medium build.”
“Okay. Please stay on the phone, the police will be there to ask questions shortly.”

Suddenly, you're torn.
Should you stay? You may been detained as a suspect... the punk could have done anything.
All he has to do is get rid of the bodies and all the police know is that your friend and some cops went missing, and you're the only one that knew. Who knows? Maybe their bodies disappeared, just like Rick's.
And it's not like you have an alibi.

And then there's... this speed. This isn't normal. What would happen if the cops knew about it? What if they ran DNA tests.
You need to learn more about this power.

“Heather!”
You burst into a run across the street, desperately following the glimpse of a dress you caught.
Out of the corner of your eye, you catch a glimpse of something else – a car racing towards you.

You turn towards it and hold your hands out to the car, hoping the driver notices.
… That hope is shattered as the car impacts you head on.

The force of the crash sends you flying backwards, where you smash into the asphalt with a resounding thud.

Huh. That's strange...
You expected to be writhing in pain... but... you barely hurt at all.
At least, compared to how you expected to feel after a car crash.

You stand up slowly, just to notice the wreck of a car in front of you.
A pair of hands are imbedded into the hood of the car, but that's overshadowed by the huge dent in the front engine block.

The car must have at least been going ten or twenty miles per hour.

That's not all... you look inside to see the driver...
A young man, unconscious, and covered in blood.

...
What's more important?
Heather, or this man's life?

You move to the elevator, slipping your gun into your pocket.
But you're not a fool – gunmen just broke into the building. You keep your hand on the gun, just in case any trouble kicks up.

You press the call button, and the door open up immediately.
… Nobody must have used it since you came down.

Discarding that thought, you enter the elevator and press the button to the fifth floor.

The elevator rides back up and reaches the fifth floor, where the doors open to reveal...

Your office, just as you would normally expect it to be.

Peter pops up to greet you.
“Hey boss! I thought you were leaving for they day.”

Conditions

You're not sure who exactly, but you hear some men chatting about something, and you don't want to take any chances.

Unfortunately, you don't think there's a way out of here that doesn't include the bathroom door.
There's a complete lack of windows, and you don't think you could fit down a toilet.

You leap to your feet and charge at da-da.

It's then that you wake up, lying face first in the pavement.
… The last thing you remember is getting pistol whipped.

Damn.
