Alex Mercer looked over the city of New York, he was looking upon the peaceful area of the city as he stood high above them at the top of a tower. Alex was ready to jump as he said to himself, “Something’s wrong here.” Before he could jump though he could feel the wind picking up around him, not too unusual seeing as he was up quite high. He looked around to see lightning emanating from a certain point at the center of the building, the force of gravity beginning to warp around him. Alex stood his ground as he began to root himself to the building; he was somewhat used to his powers by now and had learned how to make sure he stayed in one place. Alex watched as his necklace was beginning to fall towards the center of the building, not like it was being sucked in but more like it was falling towards it. Alex could feel the very same feeling of lying down on a bed, yet he was standing up. He watched as his arms dangled towards the center of the structure as the lightning began to get worse. Alex was relatively calm at the moment but soon began to feel uneasy when the ground underneath him began to give in. Alex quickly let go of that ground and began to run in place as small chunks from nearby buildings began to fly towards the black hole; Alex used these chunks to jump from one to the next and keep away from the dark void that was growing ever so strong. Alex began to regain his confidence as he realized he was gaining some distance from the hole, as soon as he turned his head he watched as a large black military helicopter tumbled towards him. Alex did his best to jump over it but completely forgot to also jump away from the hole and began to feel him get sucked in. Alex quickly transformed his arms into vines and grabbed hold of what was left of the building, his entire body receiving the feeling of him being pulled towards the ground by a freight train. Alex looked up to see the large black helicopter tumbling towards him once again. Before he could react he was knocked unconscious and was sent along with the helicopter into the dark void before it closed. Leaving the New Yorkers to wonder in horror what happened just there and then.
