Jake was getting himself ready for yet another session of physio with Aaron. It wasn't even 0430 and he was already mostly dressed, just waiting on his breakfast being ready. He'd get that out of the way, then put his sneakers on and head over to Stark Tower for his physio, and once that was done, he'd come back and grab lunch, switch into a far more preferable useful comfortable body and then go help in New York for the rest of the day.
And then the screaming started.
He'd heard screams like that before, back when he was on tour in Venezuela, and he had goosebumps all over within an instant. He hadn't been the only one injured in the attack that had taken his legs from him, after all. For a second or two, he couldn't shake the flashbacks, his hand still outstretched to grab a mug and now shaking, and a sudden cold sweat breaking out at the remembered agony and then the sudden nothing, but then his leg twitched and he blinked. The scream was still ongoing, still terrible and Jake was moving as quickly as he could. It sounded like it was coming from his floor?
He was out in the hall within seconds, and yeah, the screams that were echoing round the hallway were definitely coming from the apartment across from them. It took two seconds at the most to reach the door, and Jake was slamming on it with the heels of his hands as soon as he reached it. "HEY! OPEN UP! HELLO?" He kept yelling and hammering on the door with one hand, even as he dug his cellphone out of his pocket and put it to the CB radio with the other.
And the screaming kept going.
