AN: Special thanks goes to AliE96 for writing this amazing chapter.


Gwen was pacing back and forth in her cell, but couldn't move around too far thanks to chains around her wrists that were attached to the wall. She had been trying to figure out a way to escape from this hellhole, but almost every scenario she thought of wouldn't work.

Suddenly, the sound of her cell door opening caught her attention and she readied herself for whatever may happen. To her surprise, Patriot was thrown in as he landed hard on the concrete floor and the door slammed shut behind him.

"Patriot?" Gwen asked in surprise.

Patriot looked up with wide eyes "Gwen?"

He stood up and hugged her tightly as Gwen returned the hug, which was a little difficult due to the chains on her wrists "What are you doing here? What happened?" Gwen asked him.

Patriot broke the hug and sighed. Gwen could now see his beaten face, it was covered in bruises, cuts, and dried blood. It looked like he had been in a war or something.

"There was a huge fight at Wilson's Auto..." Patriot began as he told her what happened.

Flashback...

In the heart of the city, at Wilson's Auto, a violent raging war was taking place. There was debris covering the ground along with the lifeless bodies of some of Wraith's soldiers laid on the ground. The buildings around the battle were breaking apart before a warrior could be seen flying through the air and impaled a reptilian soldier in the chest, pinning him to a nearby wall as he spit out blood gurgled slightly before he slowly died.

Patriot grabbed his spear and pulled it out of the now dead body with a sickening sound as the body fell to the ground in a lifeless heap. Patriot's costume had rips and tears in it and he had a stream of blood coming out of the corner of his mouth.

"We need to get out of here!" Dante yelled as he approached his teammate, he too had tears in his costume and was bruised and bloodied as well.

"You and Daisy go!" Patriot told him "I'll stay here and hold them off!"

"Are you crazy?! We're not leaving you behind!" Rayshaun yelled.

"You need to go!" Patriot yelled back at him "I'll buy you some time, just get Daisy and get out of here!"

"I'm not leaving you!" Daisy yelled as she came up behind Rayshaun "We do this together!"

"Daisy, you need to go! Now!" Patriot yelled "I'll hold them off! Just go!"

Tears streamed down Daisy's bruised face as she called for her flying car "We'll come back for you!"

Patriot nodded as he knocked another solider away and the flying vehicle appeared near them. Dante climbed in first, Daisy hesitated as she looked back at Patriot who was still fighting off the monstrous soldiers.

"Daisy! Let's go!" Dante yelled out to her as he grabbed her hand and pulled her inside the car before it flew off into the distance.


End of Flashback...

"Then I go really outnumbered and over powered" Patriot told Gwen "That's when I was captured and brought here, as far as I know the others are safe"

"Well, that's good" Gwen said "Hopefully they'll be able to find us in time..."
