- Matthew Murdock has posed:
Should Daredevil really be spending his time tracking one Elektra Natchios around? It's a good question. Stalking one's on-again, off-again fling is typically not best practice, but Matt and Elektra are an exception in many ways. Matt knew that Elektra was up to something, but didn't know what, so he's been on her trail, trying to get a sense of where she's bound.
His search eventually leads him to a massive skyscraper in SoHo, apparently newly-built and with most of its floors still unoccupied. Daredevil, dressed for the occasion in his red suit, listens closely from the rooftop of a building across the way from the skyscraper, staying patient to see what he'll find. And then...
There. High up on the thirtieth floor - he hears something strange.
With that, Daredevil leaps off and sneaks into the skyscraper, making his way up through an unused elevator shaft until he arrives to the thirtieth floor.
- Elektra Natchios has posed:
The search for the elusive Black Sky that Elektra had been pursuing for the best part of the last couple of years had come to a dead-end. At least until a few nights back when she had heard of a flurry of activity happening in one of the Hand's dens. A skyscraper owned by the Hand, and some chatter about Black Sky being talked about by her contacts. It was the lead she needed, perhaps a bit too good to be true. But even if this was a trap would it really matter?
Besides, Elektra does enjoy the danger of it all.
The infiltration had gone well. All until she had realized this had turned into a trap. The scent of her passage still lingered on that elevator shaft that Daredevil takes, the same escape route she had used to climb up to the rooftop. Where she had come across Kirigi, one of the Hand's top martial artists and a host of assassins. The combat had been short-lived, with numbers winning over skill, though as they disarm her from her sais and she surrenders she feels a couple of them tightening ropes around her arms over her back. They want to interrogate her? It meant more time to figure a way out.
It's why when Daredevil steps out to the thirtieth floor he will be able to feel Elektra's presence, sitting on a chair and tied tightly to it, the ropes creasing against the tight fabric of her suit while Kirigi is leaning over her.
"So, let's talk about Daredevil.." he begins with a smirk.
