Ray was working late in his office at Palmer-Queen Technologies one night, working on upgrades and modifications on the ATOM suit. Everyone had left hours ago, leaving him alone in the office at nearly 11pm. When he stayed this late, he was always anxious to return home to his family, hoping to catch his wife before she turned in for the night.

Ray began to put away his equipment, ensuring that the heavy things were put away properly before he left the office. He heard the elevator ding, and he didn’t need to turn around to know it was security checking in on him, just as they did every night he was at work late. “I’m fine guys, just packing up to head home to my lady,” a smile could be heard in his voice as he spoke. “I’ll be out of here in about 15.”
