The man who's pursuing her, hesitated for a moment, then took a step back. "Fine," he growled. "But this isn't over. I'll be back." With that, he turned and leapt off the roof, disappearing into the street.

The stranger turned to Selina, extending his hand to her, he said. "Are you okay?"

She nodded, her eyes still wide with shock. "I'm fine. Thank you," she managed to say. "My name's Selina. What's yours?"

"I'm Xavier. It's a pleasure to meet you, Selina. But I think we need to get you somewhere safe."

Selina nodded, still trembling. She didn't know who Xavier was or why he'd stepped in to help her, but she was grateful he was there.

Xavier guided her down the fire escape and back into the safety of the street below. He hailed a cab, and they climbed in, relieved to be away from the danger.

With a sigh of relief, he pushed the door open and in excitement, she wrapped her hands around him. "Woah! I got you?" she said, her voice lace with happiness.

She looked around to see if the man that brought her there was around, but unfortunately; he wasn't. Just when she's about to get up, a nurse walked in and administered it to her.

    Slowly, Selina opened her eyes, her head pounding as she tried to glance around the room. The last thing she remembered was walking down a street, and then... darkness. Now, she found herself in a dimly lit room, tied to a chair, half naked. Her heart raced as she tried to make sense of her surroundings. She could hear the sound of cars passing by outside, but it was hard to tell where she was. Panic set in as she struggled against her restraints. She listened closely, but didn't hear any sounds of another person nearby. Carefully, she began to work her wrists against the ropes, feeling them loosen with each movement. She managed to slip one hand free, then the other. Quietly, she rose to her feet, but was unable to stand properly. Selina began to wonder what might have happened to her, but had no clue. She looked at herself closely, and realized that her dress was a bit torn. Without pondering much on it, she decided to leave quickly, as she thought that it's not safe to be there. S

She slowly raised her hands, trying to appear calm and collected. "What do you want?" She asked, her voice trembling despite her best efforts. "I just want your money." The man replied, taking a step towards her. Selina's eyes darted around the room, searching for a way out. But the man was blocking the only exit. She was trapped. Suddenly, the man lunged at her, grabbing her by the arm. She cried out in pain, trying to break free. But he was too strong, his grip like iron. "Don't struggle, or I'll hurt you." He growled, his breath hot on her face. She froze, trying to calm her breathing. "Please, just take what you want and leave." She begged, her voice shaking. "Shut up!" He hissed, tightening his grip. "I'm in charge here." She whimpered, but did as he said."Now, I'm going to let you go, and you're going to g

She said, and put her lips in her mouth. Nelson reached over and put his hand on hers. "Don't be. I'm sure everything is fine. We're going to get to the bottom of this." He said, giving her a reassuring smile. Selina nodded, trying to believe him. They drove for a while, the silence filled with worry and unease. After what seemed like an eternity, they reached the neighborhood where her mother lived. They pulled up to the house and Selina got out of the car, her heart pounding in her chest.She walked up to the front door, and begin to knock repeatedly.
