DareDevil: In the Beginning
Chapter 4
After a long flight, Joey and Serenity landed in New York, but unknown to them, that's the last place they should have been…
In the office of a tall building, a man with long turquoise hair, one gold eye and one green and wearing a purple suit, stood facing the large glass window. When a man with blonde hair and a bit muscular walked up to him.
"Sir," the blonde man said, getting the attention of the other man. "They're here."
The man with the long hair smiled.
"You know what to do," he replied.
"Yes sir."
"Wow, New York sounds great!" Serenity said as she walked along with her brother. Unknown to him, the sounds of New York set off her radar sense so she could see what was around her.
"Yeah, it's just like I remember," Joey replied. Suddenly, he stopped as they walked pasted a shop window. Serenity stopped as well.
"What is it big brother?" she asked as he pasted his nose up against the shop window. Serenity put her hand up against the window and tapped it a little to make it vibrate and for her to see what was going on, she then smelled out the leather smell coming off it.
"Whoa, that looks so cool!" Joey said as he stared at the red leather jacket hanging in the shop window.
"You gonna buy it?" Serenity asked.
"Oh I'll never of been able to afford that! Let's move on," Joey said as he and Serenity moved on, until they came across a familiar face. "Hey Tristan!"
"Hey Jo! Hi ya Serenity!" Tristan replied after seeing them.
"Hi Tristan, what are you doing here?" Serenity asked.
"Well I came to see if you where all right," Tristan flirtatiously said before Joey hit him over the head. "Ouch!"
"Nice try, what are you really doing here?" Joey asked his best friend.
"Well, to tell you the truth, I'm trying to get a job here."
"Really? In what?" Serenity asked.
"Okay, I'll tell ya, but promise you won't laugh!"
"We won't."
"All right, I want to get a job as…a reporter," Tristan replied before Joey fall down in laughter holding his sides. "It's not funny!" he said as he put Joey is a headlock.
"Okay! Okay!" Joey said as he struggled to breathe. Eventually, Tristan let him go as Serenity giggled at their fight.
"I think it's great you want to be a reporter Tristan!" she said.
"Yeah, well at least someone does!" Tristan replied as he looked down at Joey.
After chatting a little more, Tristan parted from them to find his dream job as Joey and Serenity moved on to a place called Hell's Kitchen.
"So where are we going now?" Serenity asked her brother. But suddenly, a guy dressed in black came up behind her and snatched her handbag and then ran away into an ally. "Hey!"
"I'll get him, you wait here Serenity," Joey said as he ran after the mugger into the alleyway.
Serenity stood there for a while, trying to figure out what was going on. But suddenly she heard yelling and screaming…her brother's screams.
Knowing something wasn't right she made her way down the ally as best as she could, following the noise as best she could.
"Joey!" she yelled, but no response, just the sound of beatings to something, or some one! Suddenly, everything went quiet, only the sound of footsteps and then one final blow. "Joey!" she yelled again as she heard someone dropping something. As she reached the end of the ally, she came to something lying on the ground very still. She dropped to her knees knowing exactly what it was as she heard voices.
"What about this one?" one said in a really tough sounding voice.
"Nah, leave her." another one said.
"Yeah, she's only a silly little blind girl!" the final one said in a Australian accent before they all laughed together and drove of in their car. Leaving Serenity alone, weeping. Unknown to her there was someone else in that car as well.She then rinsed her hand and put it over the body's face.
"I can't see you, Joey…" she sadly said. "I Can't see you!" she then moved her hand down his body, following his dog tag chain, but then she came across something different. Sort of soft like a rose, but then she crushed it in her hand in anger.
'From then on I knew my path…I would help those who others wouldn't, I would seek JUSTICE! One way or another…'
Author's notes: So you there you go. That's how Serenity becomes DareDevil. Well that's it for this story, but don't worry there's a sequel in store (you can probably guess what that is! Well Until then…
