Flashback

A younger Hank, had a mob boss in a hold with a knife to his neck a Latina lady before them watched everything with horror in her eyes, “Détente! por favor, Camilla no querría esto.”

Hank paused and turned to her, “esa es la cosa, los Muertos no quieren nada.”

Hank slit the guy’s throat.

End of Flashback

As Hank looked into Michelle’s eyes he understood something at that moment and quickly knocked the reaper unconscious changing his mind about killing him there and then. The security team rushed in at this moment and came face to face with the vigilante standing over the unconscious body of the reaper.

The security team were stunned at this moment with some even trembling as the vigilante looked straight at them. The vigilante locked eyes with Michelle once more, in her eyes the vigilante saw the fear was still present and wasted no more time, leaving the way he came.

The security team at this moment snapped out of their stunned state and rushed to the window where the vigilante had escaped only to see no traces of the man. The nurses rushed to Michelle’s side to check up on her to see if she had any injuries while the other security men cuffed the Reaper who remained unconscious.

At the auction house Naa had figured out where the bomb was hidden, the massive chandelier above was actually a bomb. “I found the bomb; the chandelier is the bomb. I repeat the chandelier is the bomb!” Naa shouted into her walkie talkie.

The bomb squad had moved to the chandelier which was now confirmed to be the bomb. The officers evacuated the building as they left the bomb squad to deal with the bomb, Naa remained as she stared and waited for the bomb squad to finish disarming the bomb.

“Good news” Jarred came to her side, “what do you mean? The bomb squad is not done.” Naa turned to him with confusion as to what exactly the good news he was referring to was. Jarred proceeded to tell her, “The reaper was just arrested” “what? How? Where?” “Get this apparently the vigilante got into a fight with him and knocked him out leaving him for our guys to arrest at St. Josephine’s hospital”

“Did you say St. Josephine’s?” Naa questioned with her eyes widened, “what about Michelle?” Naa continued. “The fight apparently happened in her room right before her the- hey!” Jarred called out to Naa who began to sprint out of the place “what about the bomb?!” “the bomb squad is on it!” Naa shouted back before making her way out of the place.

Naa soon arrived at Michelle’s new room, which the nurses had moved her into after the events that occurred in the first one. Naa was in time to see the nurses who had just finished performing their last checks on Michelle leave, she rushed to hug Michelle.

“Michelle are you okay? I rushed over as soon as I heard, I’m sorry I wasn’t here” Naa apologized immediately she hugged her, “hey it’s okay, I’m okay no need to beat yourself up over this” Michelle reassured her friend. “Besides it wasn’t all that bad I saw him, I saw the vigilante” Michelle told Naa who had calmed down a bit seeing that Michelle was truly okay.

“The Phantom huh… yeah I heard he was the one who saved you” “The phantom?” Michelle quirked her brow at that. “Yeah, that’s what he calls himself” Naa said in a matter-of-fact tone, “and how would you know that’s what he likes to call himself?” Michelle asked her voice now completely filled with interest.

“mmm… he might have, called me” Naa hesitated for a bit before telling her, “wait, called you… like over the phone. First off how did he get your number and how did he sound like?” Michelle ended with her brows moving in a suggestive manner.

“Nuh-uh, no you are a grown woman, why are you acting like a teenager all of a sudden?” Naa asked as she began to laugh, “I’m not I’m just curious about the relationship between my friend and Mr. tall dark and mysterious” Michelle spoke with a sly grin on her face.

“there is no relationship”, “oh please I have watched enough T.V shows to know this is how it starts” Michelle continued as she herself had begun laughing “okay, listen the only relationship between me and the phantom is me arresting him” Naa laughed again before the smile slowly faded away and was replaced with a serious face the atmosphere became a bit tense.

“But all jokes aside, I know he saved you and all but please stay away from him. The phantom is a dangerous man.” Naa cautioned her friend, and with that Michelle remembered when the Phantom had the Reaper in a chokehold, at that time she was certain, he was going to kill him. She was unsure why he stopped eventually but she was certain he had no qualms about doing that, “I know” she responded to Naa.

Unknown to the two ladies Hank was standing right outside the room and had heard their conversation, he hesitated whether or not he should go in. After an internal conflict Hank decided to go in, “Hank!” Michelle called out when she saw him step in, causing Naa to turn to face him as well.

“I heard what happened and decided to come in and check on you”, Hank had a smile on his face with the previous downtrodden expression no where to be found. The trio began to have a conversation amongst themselves but it was cut short when Naa received a call, “excuse me” Naa told the two as she headed out.

“Jarred what is it?” Naa spoke to her partner, “you need to get here, now” Jarred spoke as he looked down at the bloodied body before himself.
