Liberty awoke suddenly, her head pounding as she observed the situation, they were in. She and her friends had been on a road trip, travelling to California when suddenly her friend's car had reared of the road, flipping and now lay on it's roof in the pounding heat of the desert sun.

Her ears were ringing as she looked around herself, hanging upside down painfully with her seatbelt digging into her shoulder. Her friend Faye hung unconscious next to her, blood dripping down her forehead from the wound she must have sustained during the accident. Behind her, her friend's girlfriend Carrie lay screaming on top of the roof, seemingly not wearing her seatbelt when the accident had occurred. She appeared surprisingly unhurt with only a few cuts and bruises which were not forming. Her friend Austin, however, was nowhere to be seen.

Liberty stretched down, releasing her seatbelt, and causing her to fall uncomfortably against the car roof alongside Cassie, swearing under her breath as she did so.

'Cassie! Cassie! Please calm down, you have to help me get Faye out of the car, we have to get out!' she was shouting at Cassie, trying to get her attention, trying to get her attention from whatever her eyes were fixated on. She paid no attention to her though, screaming manically as she pointed out of the open door in front of her, manically looking between Liberty and what lay outside.

'It's okay Cassie, if Austin's out there we'll get him okay, we just need to get Faye out first! Please!' Cassie's screams only got louder though as Liberty's attention was pulled out towards the open doorway.

Goggle had appeared in the doorway, eyes landing on the two girls, a manic grin on his features. Liberty had no time to react, the mutant's appearance had shocked her, doing her best not to show disdain at his appearance.

'Looks like we have a full car his Liz!' his voice was rough, laughing manically as he spoke.

'Pl… Please can you help us?' her words came out as barely a whisper. 'Oh, don't you worry my pretty, we'll help you alright.' The voice came from behind her, the door beside her opening abruptly as she was pulled out of the car by Lizard, his leather gloves gripped painfully against her bare arms.

She allowed him to pull her out of the car, not knowing what was to come. She glanced up at the man, his appearance, different as the previous man's had been. She took him in, taking a breath before steadying herself. She tried to break free from him, to go back to the car for Faye, to help them but it was starting to dawn on her now, they weren't here to help them.
