"Who do you think Knight's sending in?" Charlie asked as Phantom's fighter flew off into the sky while he took in the sight of Myth Chemical plant. A massive industrial plant once used for chemical research. "I got no idea. But they're late..." Phantom slowly leaned against an abandoned car. "How you feeling?" Charlie asked. "Fine." He said coldly. "Don't be like that. Be honest. How are you?" Charlie asked.

"I-... I'm tired. The assassins, Nitro, Heretic... I'm exhausted." Phantom sighed weakly. "Maybe... after this lead on Rigg, you should... turn in for a while? Let others step in for a while." Charlie suggested. "I don't think so! This is my job!" Phantom growled. "But why!? Why can't you just... why can't you accept help?..." Charlie said quietly. "Because I don't need it! This is my job! It's the only thing I'm good at..." he said as a honk sounded off in the distance down the road. "Oh, god..." Phantom sighed. "That's my... back up?"

"WHAT'S UP, DARK CORE DADDY!?!?" Blitz drove the IMP van through the destroyed streets and snow and slammed to a stop in front of Phantom. "Knight sent... you?..." Phantom sighed in silent hate. "Hey! In our world, we're top notch, high price assassins! You should be grateful to have us here!" Blitz said as fell out of the driver window. "I decimated you four in the woods in under 30 seconds..." Phantom watched the rest climb out of the van. "Eh, I was on an off day! My viagra was still coming down! Anyway, we're here to help with Nitro!" Blitz said. "Knight should've never had sent you..." Phantom said as he tiredly walked towards the chemical plant, the IMP crew watching his leather coat drag through the snow and revealing drops of blood.

"Really? Cause it looks like you could sure use the help!" Millie said as she landed onto an abandoned car next to him. Phantom growled quietly. "If I may, commander." Moxxie walked over to him with Loona's rolling eyes. "We may not be your exact choice in a team, but we can help you here." He stated. "That so? Even after I put you through a tree?" Phantom asked. "...Yes. Even after you put me through a tree..." Moxxie sighed. "Well, as long as we're a new happy family, let's get our job done!" Blitz smiled. "You will not include me in that family. EVER AGAIN." Phantom growled. "Ok, relax, I see, you need some time to warm up to it, I get it! Loona was the same way!" Blitz smiled. "Because I was almost 18!" Loona shouted. "So. This is your father?" Phantom asked her. "Only, and I mean ONLY, on paper..." Loona said.

"Riiight... Look, I got a job to do. Nitro's inside. Free him, take out whoever took him. Move on. Understood?" He asked as the Blitz looked over Mythic chemicals. "Sure, yeah, got it! Alright! I'll find a way in the back! M&M, you find a window around the south! Loona, you can stick with me!" Blitz ran off before Phantom held him up by the back of his coat. "Not so fast, little man. The wolf's with me." Phantom said. "Uh, excuse you?" Blitz asked as Moxxie and Mille watched in surprise. "Loona's going with me. The mated pair can go on their own. You find a way in for yourself. THAT'S how we're doing this..." he ordered.

"Why?" Blitz asked. "Because I said so. Now do as I say!" Phantom dropped Blitz like a house cat. "Uh, ok? But nothing better happened to my precious girl!" Blitz threatened. "Blitz!" Loona growled. "Enough! All of you! Move out. Immediately." He ordered as M&M left on their own and Blitz left down an alley. "Now. Let's get this over with. I got more important matters to worry about than Nitro..." Phantom wrapped an arm around Loona's waist and fired his grapple to the roof of the planet. As they landed down, Phantom groaned as he felt the effects of his bullet wounds.

"Hey? You alright?" Loona asked, noticing the dried blood on his armor. "I'm fine! Don't question me again..." Phantom weakly barked and walked off on the roof. "If you're injured, maybe you should be sittin this out." Loona followed. "I don't SIT out. Now let's move." He walked on. Loona watched him continue, and noticed the floor of the roof in front of her. As his leather coat dragged over the clean white snow, blood drops were revealed.

"Uh. You know, here's a question. Why couldn't I go with Blitz?" She asked as Phantom looked over a ventilation system. "Because I heard about your drama show with Blitz. I'm not letting your issues put Rigg's life in danger, and possibly kill him." Phantom said as he ripped a vent off the hinges and threw the vent off into the snow. "How could you care about or even hope the best for that bastard?" Loona asked. "I've known him and the other leaders since kindergarten. As much as I hate him, I have to save him." Phantom said as he looked over the inside of the vent. "Oh, please! Would Nitro do the same for you?" Loona asked.

"No. No, he would not. That's why I have to. If I don't, then I'm just like him..." Phantom sighed. "This is the way. We'll take the vent into the plant, meet with the others, and save this fool." Phantom said as he helped Loona into the vent. After, he climbed in, and looked over the roof before slipping into the Myth Chemical Plant, for their mission. Saving Nitro.
