all his notes and begins jotting down his new idea to kill his son’s murderer.
     
    Quantum places a bouquet of flowers on Jacobs grave, another place where Quantum can be secluded right among the dead. Quantum steadies himself. With his super hearing, he hears someone or something approaching him...very fast. He turns around to the direction of the sound. Within seconds the ten foot tall metallic man lands inadvertently crushing a few tombstones.  His red, slanted robotic eye’s scan the area. His metallic frame reflects Quantum’s image and a metallic guard covers his mouth like Optimus Prime. The metal man gazes at the bouquet of flowers on Jacob’s grave.
    “Placing flowers on a grave will give you no solace,”say’s the metal man, His voice, more human than robot.
    Quantum studies the metal man. He wants not to believe it, but his eye’s and ears are revealing him the truth.
    “David, is that you?”
    “David is no more. Hardwire stands before you,” he say’s holding on his iron arm, clenching his fist.
    Quantum shakes his head. He wants to laugh at the ridiculous sight but out of respect for Jacob he holds it in.
    “There is no need for us to fight David. I’m truly sorry for what i’ve done. I’ve decided to turn myself in and face my crimes.” says Quantum holding his head down in shame.
    “No Quantum.” Hardwire walks up to his son’s grave and picks up the flowers. The flowers rot in his hand, sizzling to ash with a dark red mist. “Death is the only thing you shall face.”
    Hardwire shoots out a red beam from his right fist blasting Quantum to a parked car in the parking lot. Quantum angrily gets up. He feels pain, not much, but enough for him to take notice and touch his chest. His chest is bare. His skin slowly begins to rot but his healing force activates. Skin starts to grow and the burn marks very slowly disappear. Quantum’s healing force never took this long to heal before. He will have to take note of this. Just a fast as Quantum, Hardwire collides into him and together they battle across the sky. Quantum can’t help but be amazed at how quickly David developed the armor. He took his time and calculated every strength and weakness of Quantum.  In the sky, Quantum will have the advantage. He must not know this. so far the offensive capabilities is proving more than adequate at delivering pain. However, Hardwire does not desire pain.
    From Queens to 42nd Street in Manhattan the combatants soar then crash. Hardwire is the first and quickest to rise to his feet and fires a double beam using both fists at Quantum. Quantum crosses his arm and shields himself from the blast. Again he flies this time by himself ten blocks down . A MTA bus rockets through the air. Inside, people are screaming, a man vomits on the woman in front of him and a lady smashes her face against a window cracking her skull. Quantum bolts towards the bus and grabs it with his massive arms, but the force is too strong. He glances inside. A woman looks at him, her lips move saying “ Please save us.” Quantum looks behind and sees that they are heading towards an office building- a bank where a meeting is taking place. Metal bends and makes squeaking sounds as Quantum clutches the bus tighter. He shifts his weight to the left, crashing  through side of the building ripping and shredding his skin tight yellow and black costume, exposing most of his impeccable physique. As the bus smashes through, Quantum watches as people look in shock, and who wouldn’t, a bus has just crashed through a twenty-fifth floor office building. Quantum, what little control he gets, uses his body to brace the impact. The bus slides uncontrollably while Quantum is sandwiched between the train and the pavement. The bus slows down to a complete stop in front of a Ray’s pizza shop. Quantum lifts up the bus just enough to climb from underneath it. He gently puts it down and rips open a hole wide enough for the passengers to escape. The
