Getting off of the door frame, Nino Man approached Daimian with a menacing scowl. "God, it was going to be so much easier than this, but you just had to ruin everything once again." He set his hands down on the armrest of the couch and sighed, looking down at the sleek cushions before throwing his head into the air, eyeing Daimian intensely. "Put them down NOW!" Ripping the couch apart, he pointed at Daimian with a cold stare through his yellow pointed lenses. "You have no idea what you hold in your hands right now. If you do anything with those," he took out a little dagger from a pocket in his utility belt, "I'll have to kill you."
   "Wh- who the hell even are you," Daimian mumbly asked, gripping the files closer to his chest. He started backing around the desk as Nino Man stepped closer and closer. "Why are you even doing this?"
   Nino Man clenched his fist and raised it at Daimian's concerned face as he drew ever closer. "Give me those files, kid!"
   "What the hell's going o-" Daimian tried to ask as his back hit the cooling window.
   Nino Man jumped over his desk, managing to dodge the monitor and other papers still on it. Getting closer to the teenager's face, he screamed, "I SAID GIVE ME THE GOD DAMN FILES!" Daimian looked at the desk behind Nino Man now, getting an idea. "ARE YOU DEAF," Nino Man said before he was pushed with Daimian's legs. With a grunt, he got shoved back into the desk in a confused rage. Looking to his left, he noticed a swivel chair, picking it up and throwing it at Daimian, who dodges, causing it to crash through the window and fall down the building they were in.
   Looking out into the near empty parking lot, he saw his way out. Turning back to Nino Man trying to stand up, he nodded up at him. "Thanks!"
   "Wh-" Before Nino Man could realize what was happening, Daimian jumped out of the window to the concrete below, causing the man in the white suit to watch in shock. "NO!!!" Turning back to the door, he rushed out, shaking his fist. "That cheap little BASTARD!"
   Daimian caught onto the side of the building to slide down, managing to knock down a security camera mounted in a shadowed part of the wall. When he landed on the cooling pavement, he felt his left ankle slightly snap, clenching his teeth as not to scream. Just then, he remembered what one of the papers mentioned about his suit. Looking down, he quickly tried to take off his belt by tugging on it. "Gah, this thing was gonna EXPLODE?! I gotta take this off quick!" Hearing a beeping sound coming from the center, he tried even harder, managing to rip it off and throw the entire belt into the parking lot.
   KOOAASSHH!
   The small bomb exploded in Daimian's face, sending him back-first into the wall behind him. He gripped his face protected by the mask and tried to stand back on his feet. Looking over at the sounds inside the building, he tugged on his chest. "Ugh... Is that Nino I'm hearing," he asked as he watched the horned silhouette lurk through the building's windows. "Gotta change… fast..."
   "Son of a BITCH," Nino Man yelled as he entered the empty, burning parking lot in confusion. "Little shit. That guy must've-" He paused for a moment as he heard a rustling in the dark area behind the building. Walking over, he noticed the security camera had been knocked off of it's stand. Hearing a noise, he stopped and looked in the shadows, seeing a figure start to rise up. Thinking he would find Obscurity, he rushed over, ready with a tackle. "YOU!" Nino Man grabbed onto the figure by their clothed torso and held them close to his face.
   "Hey, you're that Nino guy from the news, right," Daimian said without his suit on, pointing at Nino Man's confused expression.
   "Of course, dumbass," Nino Man said, letting go of Daimian. "Have you seen a dick in a black suit around anywhere?"
   "Oh, you mean the guy that caused that explosion here," Daimian asked, causing Nino Man to angrily nod. "Yeah, he shoved me out of the way running toward the Pizza Pub I think. It was all ki-"
   "Where's that?"
   "Oh, it's next to the other two pizza joints. You know, Walnut I think. You should s-" he paused as he saw Nino Man stare deep into his fearful eyes. "Are you... okay? Wasn't that guy your sideki-"
   "Sidekick. Was. Or at least I thought so. Now Obscurity's on the loose like a maniac."
   Daimian tilted his head to the side. "Why?"
   Nino Man turned to look in the direction he was told to search. "Turns out she was working with Killy in order to take me down. I was barely able to survive the two of them."
   "She," Daimian asked himself quietly. As he looked up, Nino Man ran to the pizza place that Daimian had mentioned. "Now then..." He looked around at the wrecked parking lot and the walls of Nino Man's building scattered by cameras. Looking back at the papers and his suit still on the ground, he thought to himself.
   'I guess I should walk on the sidewalk so I'm seen less by the cameras. Plus, walking toward the college campus-' he thought as he gathered his stuff and headed to the sidewalk. 'Let's see, to the campus, turn around- Then I could head back for my backpack since that has everything else I was wearing. I should probably zig-zag in case Nino Man somehow finds and follows me. Finally, I crawl back into the building without anyone noticing me.'
   Half an hour later from when he thought it, Daimian crawled up the stairs of the housing facility with a slight limp. He opened the door to the apartment and went to his room, shutting the door behind him. After pacing through his room, he tossed his backpack softly under his bed before jumping onto it in defeat. As he dug his head into his pillow, he heard a knock on his door that perked him up in confusion. He turned his head as the knock got louder and harder to ignore until the door violently swung open.
