Ben watches as all of the other students leave and asks John, "Hey Brock, is our day over?" After receiving a nod of the head from John, Ben stands and, instead of leaving school, heads over to Nightwing's class. He sits through it, anxiously waiting to work on the weapon he had devised. John moves so he's sitting next to Kat and asks, "When do you want to go and where are we going?" As Anthony drives, he slowly and methodically beats back the flood of grief caused by the departure of the one person he truly cared about. Though tears had begin to fall and his eyes had become puffy when he started driving, by the time Anthony arrived at his house, his cheeks were dry and he had assumed a calm, stoic expression. He disappears into his house for a few minutes before emerging in the backyard, laden with a large bucket of various meats. He stands before a field of tall, golden grass and says quietly, "Sue, Echo, Cassidy." Not a minute goes by before the three tigers appear, their muscular bodies silently exiting the field and sitting in front of Anthony. They focus their gazes on the bucket holding their meal and give quiet, impatient growls. Anthony dumps the bucket out onto the ground, causing the tigers to jump to their feet. Still waiting for Anthony's permission, they rake the soil with their claws and crouch low to the ground. A simple nod from Anthony is the only order needed before all three felines pounce on the raw meat and begin to feast with gusto. Anthony leaves the tigers to their meal and carries the bucket inside before washing his hands in the master bathroom. Once he's cleaned up, Anthony stands in front of the bookcase next to his bed and examines it for a moment, lost in thought. The bookcase has three shelves, the one closest to the floor having the most books, the middle shelf having a handful, and the uppermost having but three books. Each book has two or three letters written in small print underneath the title. Having come to a decision, Anthony chooses a book from the top shelf, marked with the letters, [i]SC[/i], and moves it to the middle shelf. He strips down to his boxers, then lays in bed while making a brief phone call. Once the recipient of his call answers, Anthony says, "We're meeting tomorrow. Meet me off the coast of Isla Robinson Crusoe." He then hangs up and goes to sleep.
