You knew Slade was going to be furious about this.

The agreement the two of you had made with each other had been purely beneficial to the both of you - you both needed an organisation found. You, to steal an item you'd been looking for that was in the wrong hands, and for Slade to complete a contract that left the leader buried six feet under. Uniting your sources together to track them down had led you both to a satisfactory outcome, as long as you promised to let him fulfil his contract, and as long as he promised not to meddle with what you were looking for. It wouldn't have been messy - a mutually respectful parting of ways and let everything go back to normal, with promises not to make a habit out of it. The moment you secured what you needed, you did the complete opposite, and cost Slade his contract.

You'd barely got out of there alive, knowing you would face his wrath, or one of his bullets, sooner or later, but you figured settling down in a discreet safehouse and laying low for the next couple of weeks would let the boiled tensions simmer down. But Slade didn't have such a cut throat reputation for nothing. Even your safehouse wasn't secure enough, not to keep you from him.

You'd ended up with your arms twisted behind your back, over your own kitchen counter where you'd planned to make a light dinner for the evening and the sharp edge of a blade digging into the back of your neck. Slade leaned over you, dressed in his two toned gear, but left his mask off. You dreaded to think why. His presence was all consuming, almost as if daring you to fight back like this. You instinctively held your breath.

"I thought you vigilantes were supposed to be the epitome of honesty," he growled, giving your arms a cruel squeeze, the aching pinch sparking right between your shoulder blades. The blade continued to kiss your skin, prepared to cut if it needed to. "But not only did you go back on your word, you ran and hid like a coward."

His eye seemed to narrow. "It's a shame. We worked well together."
