Something big is happening in New York. Not only did some low level criminals somehow get their hands on Sable International weapons, but Sabastian is back in town and he's kidnapped Sabella. All of this are clear signs that there's big trouble. Those weapons in the wrong hands is bad enough, but Sabastian being back means he's going to do whatever it takes to get his way.

"Tell me you'll be throwing the old pitching arm soon enough." Thomas said as he walked over to Ray. After that attack, the police got hurt pretty good. The doctors arrived and were taking care of them, but those weapons were powerful. Ray's arm had to be put in a cast.

"Sorry." Ray said as he laughed. "Were those really weapons used by Sable International? I thought all of Sable International was packed out, including weapons."

"So did we, but they apparently got their hands on some stuff." Thomas said. "On top of that, Sabastian is back himself."

"Sabastian? That's the psycho that's in charge, isn't he?" Ray questioned.

"That's the one, and he just took our new helper." Thomas said. "Ray, do you have any idea where that truck came from, where it's been, or where it's going?"

"My fellow officers are looking into that." Ray said. "We've got to keep those weapons out of the wrong hands, and I'm hoping to prevent Sable International from making a comeback."

"Same here, but I'm a little more worried about how our buddy that likes swinging is doing." Thomas said.

"Venom, get your silky butt up here!" Lindsay shouted.

"Oh! Are you admitting you stare at my butt?!" Thomas teased. Lindsay was trying to prevent Paul from chasing after Sabastian and rescuing Sabella. With his enhanced strength, it isn't all that easy.

"Get off me already, Blite! I'm going after him and getting Sabella back!" Paul said as he kept trying to take her off, but Lindsay is keeping a firm hold on him.

"Why couldn't we get this handsy when we were dating?" Lindsay joked. Thomas hurried back up there and saw the situation.

"So you say my butt is silky while you're all over another man? Are you trying to start a threesome? My version of a threesome would be me with two women." Thomas joked.

"Shut up and stop him from doing something stupid." Lindsay said.

"Enough!" Paul said as he finally got Lindsay off him. "I'm going after Sabastian!" He claimed as he was about to jump off the roof, but Thomas stopped him from doing anything.

"Spider, we don't even know where they could have gone." Thomas pointed out. "He didn't really stay with his sister while he and his men were in New York. They might not get along, but I'm everything will be fine. Sabella is one hell of a woman. Anyway, we should probably focus on what's going on. We need to find out who stole those weapons, why those weapons are even here, and what the hell is going on around here. It hasn't been that long since the incident with the virus, so the city can't afford to get caught up in another form of madness."

"He's got a point." Lindsay said. "Sabella would want those weapons obtained as well since her own family's organization made that technology." Paul thought it over and he knew that they were right.

"Did Ray say anything about the truck?" Paul questioned.

"Yeah. Apparently, the truck did had system in it, something like Bluetooth." Thomas said. "It logs where the truck has been. It's disabled now, but I think we might be able to find where those weapons have been."

"That's something. We might be able to find a clue." Paul said. He's trying to put his focus on the mission, but he keeps thinking about Sabella. Sabastian isn't merciful, not even to his own sister. "That rotten bastard better not hurt her."

"I'm sure she's fine. Sabella can take care of herself really well." Thomas said.

"Uh... Does that imply that you're thinking about her body?" Lindsay questioned as she had the feeling of what he was really thinking.

"What?! No! I mean... She does look like a model without all that bulletproof stuff she wears, but..." Thomas tried to defend himself, but he was doing a lousy job. "Hey, I'm a guy here. Either way, she's his own flesh and blood."

"Like that would stop him." Paul said as he doesn't like where this is going at all.

...

Sabella

When Sabella was kidnapped, she was blindfolded and her arms were restrained behind her back. Sabastian kept a good hold on her and dragged her with him. He threw her down and she ended up on a chair.

"Sabastian, what is the meaning of this?" Sabella said. Sabastian ripped the blindfold off and Sabella had a look around. The room was dark with only one light hanging over her, but she could see her brother and a few other men.

"I hope you are happy with yourself." Sabastian said as he was clearly upset.

"Sabastian, what is going on? Why did those men have your weapons?" Sabella questioned. "Why are you back in New York?"

"You don't know, do you?" Sabastian questioned. "No, of course you don't because you have cut all ties with your country. You have let your feelings of love and such for this Spider-Man be nothing but a great distraction."

"I don't understand what you're talking about." Sabella said as she didn't get what was going on. Sabastian took a moment to take a few deep breaths to try and calm himself down. "What is going on, Sabastian? I thought you and your men cleared out of New York. The virus has been terminated, the one behind it is dead, and you no agreement with your client."

"You're right, but you would know what is going on if you hadn't turn your back on your country." Sabastian said as he truly felt like his sister has turned her back on them. "Yes, everything you say is true. However, we did leave some of our weapons and supplies here, but they have been stolen. That is why I'm here. In fact, we have recently learned that because of Spider-Man, many of our weapons have been stolen during our time here in New York."

"Why of Spider-Man?" Sabella questioned.

"Because we wasted our resources on him, it opened the way for criminals to steal them." Sabastian claimed.

"How could you just leave weapons lying around like that?" Sabella questioned as that was a stupid idea. "Even I make sure the weapons I keep at my home are safe and secured so that only I can get a hold of them."

"You would understand if you hadn't abandoned your home country for this one!" Sabastian said.

"I never abandoned my country!" Sabella said as she was getting offended her brother would think that. "How could you think of such a thing?"

"Because you are not aware of what is going on!" Sabastian claimed. "You have let your feelings of love for this Spider-Man distract you! Your judgement has been clouded that you have turned away from your country!" Sabella wasn't liking how this was sounding at all. "You love this Spider-Man more than your own country."

"That is not true!" Sabella denied.

"Then you must prove it." Sabastian said. "You must kill Paul Porter." Hearing him say that was a shock, both in what he wanted and how he knew about him. "Did you think we weren't watching you?" He questioned as he took photos and threw them down, photos of Sabella and Paul together. "We're fully aware of Spider-Man's real identity. I am also aware of that assignment you took when you first came to New York. The original Spider-Man was associated with our grandmother. Of course I would know about him as well."

"But I still don't understand. Why do I need to kill him?" Sabella said.

"He is the reason you came out here! Also, Spider-Man and his friends will only get in the way!" Sabastian said.

"But what good is killing him really going to do? You want me to kill the man I love just so you can get your weapons back?!" Sabella said as she saw no sense in it, but she thinks she knows what's really going on. "What is happening back home?"

"I will be honest with you, Sabella. Our country's enemies have made a grand move and we are pinned down." Sabastian said with Sabella already fearing what is happening back in her country. "That is why we harbored our weapons here. This way, we have a chance for a counterattack. However, they have now been stolen. We must get them back, but Spider-Man and his friends will interfere and we might lose those weapons. In doing so, Symmkaria could be doomed."

"That can't be..." Sabella said as she hated hearing her home country is in great danger.

"It is. This is what I'm talking about." Sabastian said. "You turned away from Symmkaria when it needs you!"

"No! I love my country, but that has nothing to do with this! Just what is it do you expect from me?!" Sabella said.

"I expect your loyalty to your country, and only your country!" Sabastian shouted. "He is the reason that you are even out here. If you kill him, that will prove that you are loyal to Symmkaria." Sabella wasn't sure what to think or say. She can't kill Paul, but she wants to help her country. Sabastian could see the mental debate she was having. "Perhaps you need a little...persuasion." He snapped his fingers and that caused his men to move. They grabbed a hold of Sabella and dragged her into the darkness to help ensure she makes the right choice.

...

Paul

Paul and his team decided to investigate. They decided to see where the truck has been and figure out what is going on in their city. They arrived at small garage-like building and had a look around. They didn't really see anything too out of the ordinary.

"So the truck's been here?" Paul questioned.

"Yeah. It actually all started around here." Thomas said.

"Well, let's look around." Lindsay said. The three of them moved carefully around the building, but there didn't seem to be anything too out of the ordinary on the outside. Paul jumped up on it and tried having a closer look on the walls.

"There must be something out of the ordinary." Paul questioned until his eyes landed on a bullet hole in a window. "Bingo." Paul moved in and had a closer look. He looked through the hole and could see a body inside. "Guys! There's a dead body!" Hearing that there's one in there, the three of them moved quickly to try and find a way inside. once they got inside, they found a few bodies and it didn't look good inside.

"What the hell happened here?" Thomas questioned. Lindsay took a closer look at the men and found a badge on it with a familiar name.

"Guys... These men are from Sable International!" Lindsay said with all of them surprised. "I bet this is where the weapons were stolen from."

"No way. How could common criminals take on the likes of Sable International?" Thomas questioned.

"Why are they even here? I thought Sable International left New York." Lindsay said. This all seemed rather strange, but Paul found something that could help.

"Let's go see what happened here." Paul said as he pointed to a security camera on the wall. Once they spotted it, they went for the security footage and tried to see what happened as Lindsay tried to work some magic on it. "Can you get anything?"

"We're about to find out." Lindsay said as she pressed a few more buttons and got something. That was when they saw a gun fight going on and the agents here were beaten. "How did that happen?"

"Maybe it was a surprise attack or something. I guess Sable International isn't as tough as they thought, but who attacked them?" Thomas questioned.

"I think I know." Paul said as he spotted something. He pointed to the monitor and saw a familiar face on there. "Goldberg!"

"What was that fancy tub of tar doing here?!" Lindsay said.

"What does Goldberg have to do with any of this?" Thomas questioned.

"I don't know, but I think this is hitting closer to home than we think." Paul said as he doesn't like how things are unfolding at all.

...

Sabella

Poor Sabella didn't had it easy. Sabastian was actually torturing his own sister to convince her to side with him. He actually had her stripped, suspended in the air, and left her defenseless. Hot water was being sprayed against her, clubs were getting smashed against her, and he even had one creep touch her in ways women didn't like being touched. It wasn't rape, but it still didn't feel good. A normal person would have cracked and had their spirits broken from this. Sabella was a lot tougher than a normal person, but even she had a tough time. She was holding back the urge to scream, but it was becoming difficult.

"That's enough." Sabastian said as he stopped his men. They all backed away with Sabella being released. She dropped to the ground and couldn't really get back up. Sabastian didn't even seem to care seeing his own sister like that. He just crouched down to speak with her. "What you just experienced is NOTHING compare what our people are going through, but you will get that as well if you don't choose Symmkaria. You have a choice to make, Sabella. It's either this man or your country. Just know that the decision you make could decide Symmkaria's fate." With that said, he stood up and just left her like that. Sabella wasn't sure what she should do. What Sabastian just did to her might have actually worked. Is Sabella really going to choose her country over Paul? Does she have to kill the man she loves?
