Time Period: A Flashback

Situation: Kara's death

Place: A Birthing Center in The DEO

Hank's p.o.v

She pulled me down to her level. Even in her dying state, she held onto me for as long as she could.

"I love you. You have been like a father to me" she confessed breaking my heart. "Please don't die" I

pleaded with her. She shifted her focus from me to her crying newborn son. "Please let me see and

hold my son" she requested to Alex. A somber Alex placed the crying babe in her arms. She closed

her eyes, perhaps to take a nap. Alex and I prepared to leave the room. We wanted her to have

alone time with her son. Alex's conscience said to check for a pulse. Kara had lost so much blood

and energy that her body just simply shut down. Kara's ascension and my descent into madness

happened in slow motion like a movie.


Time Period: A Flashback

Situation: Kara's wake and funeral at a church

Hank's p.o.v

Both Kara's wake and funeral were jam packed. Numerous tales of Kara's many acts of kindness

warmed my heart. One particular female guest captured my attention at the reception. A black

cape shielded her dark brown hair and ocean blue eyes. I was taken aback for she resembled

kara. I wondered if she was Kara's ghost or spirit. "My name is Melissa Taylor. Kara was my

friend. I am sorry for your loss" the pretty young lady begins and ends our meeting. Melissa

leaves me at a loss for words.


Time Period: The Present Reality

Place: The DEO-Hank's private study room

Hank's p.o.v

Iracus flies into my private study room. His eyes, Kara's eyes, gives me goosebumps. "My eighteenth

birthday is coming up. You said you would train me when I turned eighteen" he reminds me. "I

will not be able to train you. I have a prior commitment" I lie.
