I know it's sudden, but I want Rebecca to marry me. These last few weeks have been the greatest in my life. I feel like this is a new start for me. I've never felt so good.
The ring I bought to propose isn't much -- in fact, it's just a cheap little trinket I picked up at the flea market -- but it'll do until I can afford a real ring someday. She'll be so surprised when...
That's odd; Rebecca never leaves my door unlocked. I wonder what...
I see her lying on the bed, waiting for me. I go over to kiss her and -- something's wrong. I look down and see that the bed is stained with blood. I turn her head...
"NOOOOOOO!"
"Hello, Tobias. My name is Agent Adams. You're the meta we've been searching for."
"What did you do to her?" I demand.
"She was... unco-operative regarding the information we wanted. I'm going to have to ask you to come with us."
"She was innocent. She didn't know anything," I yell.
"Now she knows even less."
I lunge for this bastard who just took the one person I loved, but a sharp pain hits my my leg. I hit the ground and see five armed guys walking in with rifles.
"When you're finished, put him in the truck," Agent Adams says as he walks out the door.
As Agent Adams walked out of the room, he almost tripped over an alley cat. Adams pulled out a gun and fired, but Li'l Jo scampered off. "Damn cats," Adams said.
Li'l Jo sat behind the dumpster, listening to the sounds of Tobias being beaten and tortured. Shortly, Tobias was loaded into a truck as it drove off. Li'l Jo followed behind to see where it was going.
