It didn't take Adam long to spot John's home in the distance as he quickly headed towards the address that his gantlet had given him. He soon came to the small house that John was living and he walked up the front step to the door. He wasn't sure how his old partner would react to him trying to bring him back into Adam's world. There were reasons for him leaving it and Adam felt guilty having to disturb John's peace.
He knocked on the door and after about a moment of waiting John answered the door and came face to face wih Adam.
"Somehow I knew you would come by my doorstep someday, how's it been Adam" John asked.
"It's been not very good, in case you stopped watching the news things have gotten out of control with the whole terrorism and anti human and anti meta-human sentiment. everything seems to be falling apart, which is why I need your help" Adam replied.
"I haven't been working for the government for several years and I don't see very much of a motivation to start up again any time soon” John said to him.
“I know that you don’t feel any love or loyalty to the government and the nation right now, but things are getting worse and more people are going to die unless we stop what is happening” Adam responded.
“And tell me why I should care? I lost everyone that I cared about and now the country is sharing the troubles that I have had going in my mind for a long time. I don’t see why you need my help.”
“Because you’re the best soldier that I know right now and I am begging you to help me as a partner and an old comrade” Adam replied sincerely. John thought for a moment and then gave his answer.
“Alright Adam, I’ll help you just this once, but we will do things my way and I don’t want to hear any opposition to how I fight or killing, got that?”
“Yes of course, thanks John” Adam said with a smile and they left John’s home to head back to the base. Once they got back to the base, Adam introduced John to the others.
“Everyone, this is John Morrison, he is my old partner” Adam said to them.
“Please just call me Mountain Lion” John said to them.
