It was a cold morning in New Haven. Alot had changed in 7 years. The city didn't look as war-torn anymore, from what the cultists did, but now it looked pretty peaceful. This had been Blake's 2nd day visiting New Haven, the homeplanet of his father and Lillith. He walked down the sidewalk, heading towards a park a few blocks down. There weren't that many people walking or cars driving around in this city, unlike most cities Blake has been to. As he walked, Blake heard the roar of an engine, turned around right as a speeding bus barely missed him. He quickly backed up to the wall of a building. Blake saw as the bus passed him at a high speed, a police unit was pursuing it from close behind. The bus suddenly brakes and halts at a nearby intersection, right as the police unit stops to the left of the bus. Blake walks to the right side of the bus, to avoid any confrontation.
He heard both cops getting out of the squad car and a group of people exiting the bus, followed by autmatic gunfire. Blake quickly moves to the front of the bus and peeks around the corner. He sees the police car peppered with bullet holes, 2 cops on the ground motionless, and a group of 3 heavily armed people all in black clothes. One of the terrorists spoke to another saying, "We gotta get outta here quick. More of them will be here any minute, and we're in a -blam!-ing intersection! She said that the tests with the new subject will be completed soon, anyway." Blake thought, he could stop them now. He heard some struggling in the bus. There were hostages inside. All of the terrorists weren't facing him.
Blake quickly sprints to the closest terrorist, snaps his neck, pushes the body over, and runs for the next one. He holds him by the neck, using him as cover, as he grabs the pistol out of his holster. Blake aimst the last terrorist, demanding him not to move, but he fires his assault rifle. After 2 quick pistol shots, the last terrorist drops. The terrorist he was using as cover fell over blood-stained and motionless from shots to the head, neck, chest, and leg. As more cops ran down the streets and aimed at him, Blake drops the pistol and raises his hands. One cop walks over, and brings him to a nearby squad car, while a group of 4 cops enter the bus and start escorting hostages out.
As the cop started to question Blake, the bus explodes into flames, sending glass and shrapnel everywhere. 3 cops and half of the hostages were still inside the bus when it exploded. The remaining cop and hostages ran for cover behind another car. The cop questioning Blake ran to the wreckage. Blake walked to a dead body of one of the terrorists. Each of them, on their black clothes, there was an odd-looking emblem. Could they have been part of a recently developed crime group? Another officer came to him and said, "You'll have to come for questioning." Blake responded with a nod, as he led him to a squad car and drove to the station...
