I found myself in a difficult situation, without money or identification. It seemed impossible for me to go anywhere, especially considering the new security measures in place within the city. Surveillance cameras and drones were keeping a watchful eye on both villains and unregistered powerholders.
In a moment of realization, I remembered the garage in the hospital building. Without hesitation, I hurried towards the hospital, hoping to find a means of escape. Black Widow, who was ready to seduce me for power, had likely left a car for me in the garage, just like how she left the clothes. I couldn't believe I had forgotten about it earlier.
As I entered the hospital gate, I spotted the sign for the garage on the left wall. Following the arrows, I made my way inside.
To my surprise, there it was—a magnificent car that caught my eye immediately. It was not just any car but the latest, highly customized model from ZXr: the Zxr Turbo 9000R Limited Edition. Its sleek black exterior boasted flame pinstripes, and the light black tinted glass suggested it was bulletproof. The customized wheel rims and front grills added to its allure. And the best part? This particular vehicle was one of only ten Limited Edition cars in the entire world.
To my amazement, I noticed two blue cylinders under the back seat, labeled with familiar markings. Could it be? NOS. This car could even fly.
As I approached the vehicle, an AI voice greeted me, welcoming me inside. I couldn't contain my excitement as I took a seat behind the wheel. The car's interior was as exotic and luxurious as I had ever seen. The glossy wooden finish, ambient LEDs, and mini-fridge, along with the leather-like seats, truly embodied ultimate luxury. And then there it was—the big red button on the steering wheel, a feature everyone knows the purpose of. But enough about the car.
Curious about the time that had passed, I asked the AI, "What day is it today?"
The AI responded, "<10 March 2023>. The New York incident in this timeline occurred four years ago."
Realizing I had been unconscious for three days, I knew it was time to leave. Thankfully, I had already obtained my driving license, so I didn't have to rely solely on the AI.
My eyes fell on the side seat. There was a small envelope. I opened it and found my new driver's license, car papers, and other papers required to drive and own a car. I will thank her next time we meet. for new novels
I don't want to run anymore, but I can't tell them that I blew up all my money. They will hate me for that... Right? Yeah, I am sure they will hate me. But I don't want to lie anymore.
Fuck!!! Ok! I will tell the truth. They might blame and hate me, but it's better than lying. It's time to start a new one. Lie took away everything from me. I ain't gonna make the same mistake again.
I walked to the front door. My hands were cold, and my throat was parched. It's been too long since I saw my family. They must be sad and worried since I haven't called them even once in the past two months. On top of that, I have to drop that bomb... My life is a mess.
I slapped my cheeks and pressed the calling bell. It's time to face my family's wrath. My mom is gonna beat me up. I can never win against her inhumane strength. Shit!!! I am having second thoughts. Maybe I shouldn't tell them the truth...
The door opened while I was standing with a baffled expression, lost in my thoughts.
"Alex!!! Where have you been for the past three days? And you... What happened to you?" My mom asked. From her expression, she looks worried.
Ah! Here we go.
