Eraserhead once again begins his patrol in the city. As he patrols the streets, a nearby payphone rings.

Eraserhead: That's odd....

Eraserhead answers the payphone and is greeted by a chilling voice.

???(Phone): Hello Eraserhead. Do you recognize my voice?

Eraserhead: Victor Zsasz.

Zsasz(Phone): In the flesh! It has been far too long. Have you missed me Hero?

Eraserhead: What do you want?

Zsasz(Phone): I challenge you to a little game. I have a mindless drone just waiting for salvation.

Woman(Phone): Please help me! He's going to kill me! He's holding me at the.....

Before the woman could reveal their location, Zsasz quiets her down.

Zsasz(Phone): Now now.... don't be rude. I worked hard to set up this game. Be a good girl and quiet down or I'll cure you of life.

Eraserhead: Let her go Zsasz! If you hurt you, I'll hunt you down!

Zsasz(Phone): I bet you will Eraserhead. Go to the Sports Festival Stadium. I trust you know where that is. Take too long and I'll carve this woman's life into my flesh. Now hang up the phone and start running. Ring....ring....ring.....

As Zsasz hung up the phone, Eraserhead quickly realized the gravity of the situation. Zsasz had a hostage and was eager to kill her. Eraserhead soon began running for the Sports Festival Stadium. When he got there, he heard a ringing cellphone. He picks it up and answers it.

Eraserhead: Speak.

Zsasz(Phone): You sound impatient Eraserhead. Good. You'll need it if you're going to win my little game.

Eraserhead: This isn't a game Zsasz! This is a woman's life we're talking about!

Zsasz(Phone): I'd be doing this little piggy a favor by cutting her throat here and now. To liberate her from a mindless and meaningless existence. To be a mark on my flesh is an honor of the highest regard.

Eraserhead: I'll find you Zsasz and I'm taking you down!

Zsasz(Phone): That's the spirit Eraserhead! Your next call will be at an apartment complex a few blocks from hear. Top floor on the room five. I'll be waiting. Run.....run.....

Zsasz then hangs up the phone. Sensing an opportunity, Eraserhead makes his way to the apartment complex and makes it to room five on the top floor. He tries to open the door, but is locked. 

Eraserhead: I don't have time for this!

Eraserhead then breaks down the door and finds the room abandoned. As he searches the room, he hears a woman screaming. 

Woman: Help me!

As Eraserhead turns his attention to the screaming, he sees Zsasz holding the woman hostage with a knife to her throat. 

Zsasz: Stay where you are Eraserhead! Listen to me carefully!

Zsasz dragged the woman away to the living room. Eraserhead then rolled to cover as Zsasz began laughing. 

Zsasz: Did you like my little game Eraserhead? I did all that just for you!

Eraserhead: Let her go Zsasz! Think about what you're doing!

Zsasz: I know what I'm doing Eraserhead! I intend to release her from her meaningless existence! Her life will be forever marked on my flesh! As will you! 

Eraserhead knew that if he was spotted, Zsasz would kill his hostage. He then saw an opening in the form of a window. He climbed down the window and began shimmying across the ledge. Eventually, he reached the window directly behind Zsasz. He hopped out and tackled Zsasz. As he did, the woman was freed.

Eraserhead: GO! NOW!

The woman immediately begins running out of the apartment while Eraserhead battles with Zsasz. Zsasz soon frees himself and the two stare each other down. 

Zsasz: You denied me the mark Eraserhead! 

Eraserhead: Good. Last thing I need is a another dead person because of you!

Zsasz: You misunderstand me Eraserhead! I am doing these people a favor! I give their existence meaning! I honor them by carving their lives into my flesh!

Eraserhead: Not if I have anything to say about it.

Zsasz: Then let me show you. Let me give your life meaning! I know the perfect place for my mark to you!

Zsasz begins slashing at Eraserhead with his knife. The Pro Hero dodges the attack and grabs his arm and attempts to disarm him.

Zsasz: Not good enough!

Zsasz retaliates by headbutting Eraserhead and slashes at his chest.

Zsasz: I grow bored Eraserhead! Now you die!

As Zsasz goes for the killing blow, Eraserhead counters by wrapping his Combat Scarves around Zsasz's wrist and kicks him to the ground. As Eraserhead binds him up, Zsasz speaks.

Zsasz: This is not over. It cannot be over. My blade will bathe in the crimson rivers of blood that will pour from the holes I cut into your body. You cannot deny me the mark. I need to make the mark. It's all I have left!

Eraserhead then proceeds to knock out Zsasz by punching him in the face.

Eraserhead: That's enough out of you.

The woman then runs out of the closet she was hiding from and begins to beat on Zsasz.

Woman: You monster! You evil, evil, evil monster!

Eraserhead then stops the woman.

Eraserhead: Easy there. He's not going anywhere.

Woman: He...he was going to kill me! The things he said he was going to do to me. It was horrible!

Eraserhead: You're safe now. Stay here and wait for the police. And don't worry about Zsasz. He won't be getting up anytime soon. 

After that, Eraserhead contacts the authorities and leaves them the location of the apartment. He then exits the apartment and resumes his patrol.
