Captured by NightHauant our heroes are frozen in ice and put into two clear Plexiglas chambers.

These chambers are hanging from the roof of a room.

Within this room is a steam generator powered by thermal energy from below the volcano.

 

Page 2

NightHaunt sets the controls to overload, giving him an hour to escape. As he goes he sets internet cameras going so he can watch their demise and send a message when they wake.

Just then the night sky turns black with no stars, moon or other light.

 

Page 7 – Stretch listens ‘People of the world, hear me now. I am nighthaunt, future ruler and beneficent leader of this planet. I speak to you now of a choice: submit to the power of the One True Faith or live in darkness forever.! To show that I have the might to act, look to the sky and prepare yourselves.’

 

‘This is when the sky went out’ says Fox,  ‘Nighthaunt is the one who escaped, he must have had a plan ready to go’.

 

Page 8 – The streets are full chaos as people panic and the criminal class take advantage by looting.

 

Page 9 – The evening sky comes back and the message continues live this time.

‘The choice confronts you. Submit to the faith of super-naturalism as your sole religion and to me as its one true priest, or suffer the consequences of folly. You have one day to pay me a fitting tribute of good faith. This tribute is to be an offering of ten billion in gold, five pounds of fissionable material, and a division of crack troops, enough for your leader to have the wealth and power befitting him. You have 24 hours before I blot out the sun finally and irrevocably. If you have not submitted to my leadership by that time, the blame rests upon your shoulders. Hear and obey.’

 

Page 10 – Stretch and Airgirl met up and discuss the situation, while they are a call comes in from DC Fox.

Page 13 – ‘My science aid’s believe that Nighthaught has created a giant sized version of his Light Dampening field generator. If he has it seems that it might black out the world. The military have managed to pick up the transmission quickly enough to get a partial location. It came from somewhere in the North Atlantic but we are not sure quick where.’ She continues, ‘it is up to you two to find out where and stop him, the clock is ticking and we have under 22 hours remaining. Unfortunately Captain Britain is busy and no one else is available, I have been told that you are capable heroes who can get this job done. ‘ ‘The military have a high speed long range Helicopter and pilot for your use.

 

Page 14 – ‘We also believe that a bat like creature which was part of a robbery this evening in Bath is linked to this man. The creature  disappeared in a smoke and ash, it was wearing a belt which we have here it held a couple of grenades.’

Airgirl and Stretch take a look at the belt and Airgirl notices a small leaf hooked on the belt.

Stretch knows from his wide knowledge of biology that it comes from only one plant from only one place a small island near Iceland.

 

Page 15 – With the where worked out they head for the helicopter for a 3 hour flight to the island.

 

Page 16 – With time to work Airgirl hacks the satellite control system at NASA. to use a satellite to view the island. With the sensors they can see a volcano to the west and signs of a building to the east, surrounded by forest.

 

Page 17 – Airgirl uses her talent with computers to see if there is any trace of internet communications from this island but fails to break the encryption.

 

Page 18 – 80 miles out Airgirl and Stretch leave the copter. Airgirl fly’s on the winds and uses wind to push Stretch who has taken on a sail shape.

 

Page 19 – Reaching the island they land on the volcano.

Airgirl fly’s off on her own to recon towards the building using her stealth ability as much as possible.

 

Page 20 – Flying east she comes across a road going roughly north south. Then still flying east she comes across a three way junction with one heading the way she want to go. This leads to what she takes to be the HQ.

 

Page 21 – There is a large roughly square one story building with two helicopters on the eastern side of the roof.

Outside the front is a small car park with some buggies.

 

 

Page 22 – Airgirl decides to disable the helicopters. To do this she tries to open a hatch and pull out cables.

However as soon as she touches the hatch she receives an electric shock which throws her back.

Page 23 – Stretch has been looking around the volcano, but not found anything except plants and insects to interest him.

 

Page 24 – Airgirl carries Stretch in a whirlwind to the HQ, getting close she uses her air control to whip up a mist to cover them from cameras.

He uses hi micro size to get into the lock and open the door.

However an alarm goes off when the door opens.

 

Page 28 – The two of them leave the roof and go round to the front door, assuming guards will be heading for the roof.

Stretch reaches the front door and is caught by a area icy blast and caught in a prison of ice.

‘Not those Chill guns again’ thinks Stretch.

 

Page 29 –  Airgirl takes out the guard post hidden in the trees by the car park.

Stretch breaks free of the ice prison.

 

Page 30 – Stretch opens the front door, and pears into the entrance.

A blast of ice shards come towards him and he uses the door as cover.

The door is riddled by small ice shards.

 

 

Page 31 – Airgirl goes to the roof and starts to air blast the big radio dish up there. [Assuming it is the method of transmitting the dark]

Airgirl continues to blast the dish

 

 

Page 33 – Stretch sees that the room is a machine shop and sees three people working there.

Page 34 – The demons fly closer and Airgirl again moves away. [she seems to be faster than them]

Stretch leave the room and moves over to the door on the right and opens it.

 

Page 35 – Airgirl attacks the demon again this time it goes boom and vanishes in a puff of smoke and dust. She then moves back away from the second demon.

Stretch Picks the lock of the door and enters. Instantly he is encased in ice again. [He really does hate these chill guns.

 

Page 36 – Airgirl takes out the second demon.

Stretch escapes from the ice prison and avoids a hail of ice shards from the two guards.

Page 46 – Nighthaunt starts his monologue.

‘Why fight the inevitable, just submit and join me’

‘You lackeys of the state why suffer for those weaker than you?’

‘I will black out the world if they do not recognise me as its ruler’

and so on

 

 

Page 47 – Waiting for him to finish Airgirl lets go with her airblast, but he seems to avoid it.

Stretch kills one guard and knocks out the other, he also causes a demon to go boom.

Nighthaunt does two things, one he activates his fear which dazes Stretch. Then he puts the room into darkness.

 

Page 48 – Airgirl blasts another demon which goes boom, using her air sense to target.

Stretch breaks free of his fear.

Nighthaunt fires his laser at Airgirl, using his radar sense for targeting. Airgirl not being built to take hits suffers from this blast.

BASH Issue 6 A Frozen City

Issue 6 A Frozen City

 

Page 1

Media reports Martha has done a in-depth report about Doris Dagger a wheelchair bound politician of the Women’s Equality Party, a Bristol counselor, who is running for Bristol city mayor she is accusing her male rivals of Sexism as well as  disabilityisam. She claims that they are saying she is not up to the job and incapable of coping.  She says she has multiple degrees and is appealing to the female vote, her views on men are well known, anything they can do females can do better. She has desires to be the UK first WEP Prime Minister at some point.

Her rivals say this is all made up or taken out of context,  Of course they do as men would never do anything so underhand.

This reporter thinks Doris is a breath of fresh air, and just maybe a woman leader will do something about this rash of male heroes and villains who are causing so much havoc, men just seem to be in awe of them.

 

 

Page 2

A fine Spring day light cloud and bright sunshine.

 

Professor Stuart Stanley, Aka Stretch, is fishing on the banks of the river Avon in Bath on his own. He has taken a day off work to just relax.

 

Air Girl is practicing her dance moves on the roof of a building near to where she lives.

 

Page 3

They feel the air get colder and can see their breath in the air, frost starts to from on surfaces and then ice starts to cover the ground. A sudden cold snap?

Stuart starts to see the river freeze over trapping barges and boats and his fishing line. He starts to pack up his tackle, seat, and over boxes with his lunch away.

 

Over radio’s, text alerts and TV screens comes the update that Bath City centre is under ice the river is frozen  and people are falling over. Boats are trapped, cars have crashed, where has this sudden cold come from?

 

Page 4

Slightly later media reports –  Shops and shops and banks are also being robbed as someone takes advantage of the situation.

Stuart not having a radio with him has not heard any of this and is heading home to put his stuff away, have a warm drink and then go for a walk.

Air Girl fly’s over towards a bank to see what is going on.

She sees Ice minions collecting cash from the bank and shops and putting the cash onto drones.

 

Page 5

Air Girl decides to follow a drone rather than stop the robbers.

 

The Pro phones his contact Chief Detective Brain Fox to find out what is going on with this cold snap. Fox brings him up to date on the situation, in fact he sounds quite agitated and anxious about the number of car accidents as well as the number of reports of injured people falling on the ice. The ice seems to cover most of the city centre around one square mile in area.

 

Page 6

Stuart changes to Stretch and heads for the centre of the problem the Abbey Church Yard phoning the only other hero he knows is around at the moment Air Girl they arrange to met at the abbey.

 

Air Girl gives up following the very slow drone and heads to the abbey.

 

 

 

Page 7

Captain Chill and two Cyborg’s are stood in the Abbey churchyard stopping all police interference. A few drones are flying around them as well as each group of minions collecting cash recording everything, or collecting the cash.

 

Page 8

Once Air Girl and Stretch arrive they see a strange sight, a few police are trying to keep the crowds of shoppers back from Chill. However a lot of the shoppers are trying to get selfie’s with the escaped villain.

Others are lying on the ground or on benches with injured limbs. There are also crashed vehicles around the shopping area. The whole area is ice covered.

 

They discuss options.

 

Page 9

Air Girl decides to use her air control to grab a drone and throw it at a Cyborg. This hits and the drone is smashed into bits but it does knock the Cyborg off its feet and 17′ backwards.

 

Page 10

Captain Chill starts into a verbal tirade, telling them how point less it is for them to face off against him. How they have no grounds for attacking him and are they feeling the chill dude.

 

Page 11

Air Girl manages to let him finish his verbal assault and then fires a wind blast at him, which chips bits off ice off of his icy caprice.

 

Stretch had started bouncing, having formed a ball while Chill was speaking, between buildings.

 

Chill skates 120′ on his skates which create a 3′ high slide of ice and fires his Chill gun at Air Girl. The cone of cold envelopes her as she tries to avoid it. she is stuck in a icy block.

 

The Ice Warrior, Chill created out of the ice, stands still.

 

The two Cyborg’s both jump upwards, they ascend 50′. Air Girl works out that they will go up to around 400′ before they start to come back down, presumably to land on one of them.

 

Page 12

Air Girl fighting falling out of the sky as her mass increased when the ice formed around her. She tries to head towards the hot Roman baths which will melt this cage off of her.

 

Stretch bounces into Chill, knocking him 50′ towards the abbey walls and onto his back.

 

Chill stands and towards Stretch who has bounced away.

 

The two Cyborg’s continue to go up.

As he does the Ice Warrior gets in his way and its icy sword thrusts into him. Stretch is stopped in his tracks with a bleeding wound where the sword hit him.

 

Cyborg’s reach 350′

 

 

Page 18

Air Girl continues to blast the Cyborg

 

Stretch wrestles the Ice warrior and throws it 42′ into a wall.

 

Chill Skates towards Stretch to freeze him with his chill gun.

As he does two ARG police [Armed Response Group] open fire on him with their Pulse rifles.  The impact of these blasts knock Chill sideways 42′ onto the ground and away from Stretch. [Hero Die from Air Girl]

Stretch starts to choke Chill

 

Cyborg drops to 300′

 

Ice Warrior stabs at Stretch again, luck for Stretch his elastic body allows him to keep moving out of the way.

 

The ARG fire at the warrior again this time their blasts shatter its ice sending sharp shards in a 60′ radius.

These shards cut into bystanders, injuring many.

 

 

Page 21

Air Girl gives the second Cyborg a soft landing by the police.

She has stopped them both and saved their lives.

 

Stretch manages to choke Chill into unconsciousness and gives him to the police as well.

 

Page 22

Air Girl and Stretch pose for pictures and then leave the area, Stretch knowing he can talk away the couple of wounds as caused by the flying ice as the Pro was watching the action.

 

Page 23

The Ice starts to melt once Chill is taken away and as it does the emergency services arrive to help the injured.

The Chill minions disappear as has nearly a million in cash from across the city.

 

Again it turns out that the Cyborg’s are men who have been drugged and been fitted with advanced Cyborg implants.

 

Page 24

The media has a field day on the heroes who did not stop any of the robberies but faced off against a super who was doing nothing till they cam and started a fight.

No one yet knows what to call this group of heroes however quite a few like ‘The Destroyers’ due to the amount of damage which follows them around.

Since in The Chronicle

There appears to be four super vigilantes operating in the Bath area.

One called Grenade a known criminal, who causes explosions.

Another called Alfa a robot of some sort,

Another called Stretch who can stretch his body into odd shapes

and lastly Air-girl, which no one seems to know much about.

Are they working together?

Are they a threat to us all in the Greater Bath area or even the nation?

 

Page 3/

The Daily Mirror – there are supers around the South West are they linked to ‘Monarch’ and ‘Captain Britain’ in London?    Do they work together?

 

The Sun – The supers in the southwest – do they have some long term plan which will threaten the way we live?

What is our government doing about them?

Is Air-girl worth putting on page 3?

Is Alfa a German Euro agent?

 

Page 4/

Alfa – Has already stopped a mugging and is helping drunks by teleporting them home, he has to take their id out of their wallet or purse to do this.

Air Girl – taking advantage of having done all her work is flying free over the area. Has saved a student from falling into the river and is now enjoying the air waves, flying around.

 

Air Girl hears, on the wind, the sound of gunfire and alarms.

Alfa sees with his radio hearing the alarms and police call.

 

Both head towards the postal Storage Warehouse and see a man running from the building and down Manvers street, shouting at the top of his lungs. He is followed by a huge, 10′ tall, metallic robot about 60′ behind. The man is very scared, but tiring, and the robot is catching up.

Morris explains, ‘three of us brook into the Mail warehouse. In searching through the materials stored there, they open a few large crates. Inside they find a number of large, silvery robots (Exterminator’s). Unable to find any way of operating the robots, they search the rest of the building. While their backs are turned, the eyes of the Exterminator s glow and the disconnected robots slowly begin to move. I fled the other two are still there I think, a robot followed me the rest you know’.  Alfa then drops Morris and teleports to land onto the Exterminator robot, however he lands beside it and then grabs it.

Page 31/

next week.

Using the info Alfa has from scanning the packing crates the two of them use their skills with computers and investigation to back track on the origins of the Exterminator robots.

Boxes posted by J Crowe of Acme suppliers from New York.

Acme suppliers are known to have transported high tech stuff out of the USA before.

 

 

Page 32/

L Crowe is part of a Druidic cult in North America called  United Ancient Order of Druids (UAOD) .

This is linked in the UK to a group called Order of Bards, Ovates and Druids (OBOD)

As they find this info out six warriors Dressed in plaid kilt and covered in Woad, attack with great fury and no warning They are armed with spears swords and shields, and look Gallic.

Air Girl gets onto a chair and Alfa teleports them away.

 

Page 33/

Within OBOD is a small splinter group called ROD [Restoration of the Druids] who want to bring back the control of society by the Druids.   Simon Smith is the leader of ROD having deposed the previous one Philip Gomm, who was killed by wolves while out for a walk in the dales.

Again six Gallic warriors turn up and attack, Air Girl pulls a stunt and gets her whirlwind to effect all six of them, trapping them till the police arrives.

 

Page 34/

With a picture of Simon from the net they use the internet again to find out more about him.

HISTORY-

Simon, a Vet, was a normal druidic sun worshiper often arrested or beaten by the police while occupying Stonehenge. Then one solstice at Stonehenge when as the sun rose shining through a gap in the dark storm clouds while Simon, was leaning against one of the stones, a freak lighting bolt struck. It coursed through the stone and Simon. He was rushed to hospital badly burned and injured, Simon was close to death, however he survived and over the next few days recovered fully and left hospital, much to the confusion of the doctors. He has since sold his practice and disappeared.

 

Page 35/

Air Girl taking the shape of a cloud follows a Gallic warrior when realised from the police station.

 

Page 36/

Air Girl follows to a grove in Bathford where a small group has assembled.

Using her ability to hear on the air she listens to them.

They appear to be talking with Simon on Skype, Alfa hacks into the transmission as he can hear radio waves.

Simon is disappointed that the robots did not get the stone in the Roman Baths he needed.

But he will try again, until them they must find out about these heroes.

 

Page 37/

Air Girl and Alfa hack Skype to find out Simons location. Anglesey where else.

Currently

Prof Stuart Stanley [Stretch]  with his girlfriend Martha Millington  are walking around the annual Victorian Christmas Market around the Abbey in Old Bath. She is taking notes and pictures on her tablet for the Chronicle  while he is wondering what to get her this year, girls are so hard to buy for. The wooden stalls are bright and busy, thousands of people are wondering around the area buying snakes or gifts or just enjoying the joyful Christmas atmosphere.

Doug Macarthur [Grenade] is also out around the market and city centre, palming things from peoples pockets and bags, a man has to make a living after all.

Air-Girl, is wandering around the top of town taking in the sights and smells. Dressed in flowing ropes with a coat over them.

Alfa, is also walking around, in his heavy coat and hat, enjoying the sight of humans enjoying themselves and not expecting trouble in this crowded happy environment around the religious centre of the city.

 

Page 5

Ayn Rand is also walking around the market he has on his normal Orange clown outfit with mask make up of stark white face paint with bright red spots on his cheeks Juggling Clubs  as he mixes with the crowds.

As he goes he puts his usual dampener on the joy of the people, therefore his name of Killjoy. This causes people to become short tempered, aggressive and angry with each other.

Scenes of people arguing, back biting, becoming short tempered and fighting breaking out.

Alfa and Stuart notice the sudden shift in attitudes around them, more pushing and shoving, arguing with stall holders etc.

BASH Issue Two – A Chilly Time

Issue Two – A Chilly Time

Issue one here

 Page 1/

John of MI5  sits at his desk looking at the reports.

He decides to find out where the Chill sergeants have come from. So John contacts Grenade, who he knows, to make use of his skills, as MI5 has before, to find this active threat, John also calls upon the new hero Alfa to help using a general radio message to contact him.

 

Page 2/

When the two arrive at Lansdowne golf course for the meeting, Alfa teleports and walks in, in his long coat and wide brimmed hat. Grenade takes the bus.

Afla recognises Grenade from his Fame and Infamy. While they play a round, John explains that Chill units have been turning up in various places and not just locally, they seem to be used as mercenary support for others. MI5 would like the two of them to work together or separately to find the source of these chill gun armed thugs operating locally.

They also are concerned that Jo Coburn a scientist who works on chilling technology, has not been seen for some weeks, has she been kidnapped, just on holiday or something else?

 

Page 3/

Alfa asks if the Chill Sergeants are clones, John answers no they are human.

He then heads to the library to access the net to find out about Jo.

She works at University of the West of England [UWE], and lives in Bath.

Alfa hacks the UWE data base to find her address. She lives at Riverside and is late back from a four week holiday.

Is she working for them or held by them?

 

Page 4/

The two go the the riverside and Grenade rings the front door bell.

With no answer Alfa looks into a window and teleports in and opens the door for Grenade.

 

Page 5/

The flat is empty.

So the two of them look for clues.

Alfa [uses a hero die] finds a card and wet patches.

The card for Chill mercenaries co. with a e-mail address, the damp patches seem to be melted ice.

 

Page 6/

Alfa goes back to the library, while Grenade heads to UWE.

 

Page 7/

Alfa using uses its hacking skill to send a spam mail to the Chill e-mail address.

This allows access to computer records.

 

Page 8/

Grenade having reached the Uni. front desk smiles at the female at the desk and suggests she supply some Info on Jo.

Kelly the front desk lady takes Grenade to Jo’s labs and the assistants working there.

 

Page 9/

Again Grenade makes eye contact and suggests they show him the research.

It seems that the group are working on making small and efficient freezing and chilling units. Which can make keeping containers cold easier, or helping troops in hot areas keep cool or even firemen able to fight the heat of a fire.

 

Page 10/

This tech could also be used as a weapon, although that is not what they are working on.

Various companies and people have been interested in this work and Grenade gets a 6 page list of these companies.

Grenade texts himself all the info he has gathered so Alfa can see it.

 

Page 11/

Alfa tries to get deeper access to the Chill co. records but fails and is chucked out of the system.

 

Page 12/

Alfa and Grenade met up at a cafe to share info and decide to contact John of MI5 to visit a Chill sergeant in prison.

 

Page 13/

Prison.

John takes them to see the one healthy chill sergeant, the other is still suffering from the injures he suffered.

Grenade uses his suggestion ability to again get information.

Apparently they work for a Captain Chill whose base is to the south of old Bath  and agents go to the Odd Down Park and Ride to take a enclosed van on a short trip to it.

The white van has Chill Co on its side.

 

Page 14/

Alfa decides to do a thermal scan of the area to the south of old Bath.

Using his ability to teleport, he teleports into the sky, falls a little and teleports higher and along a path doing this to cover a wide area.

This takes time but works nearly as good as having flight.

He finds to very cold spots, one at Bath Reclamation at Odd Down and Circle at Peasdown.

 

Page 15/

Afla lands at Brec and looks around. It is a small sprawling area dealing mainly with scraping and reusing tech. Ran by Kenny Kirstone, cold area seems to be where the chilling liquid from industrial freezers is kept.

He leaves quickly before being seen or caught trespassing.

 

Page 16/

He then jumps to near the Circle site. This site holds a hospital as well as some small industrial units.

He checks radio traffic and finds on a military frequency a security signal. Which seems to be a monitoring system linked to cameras etc.

 

Page 17/

He walks around the area and sees a enclosed behind fences Advanced Industrial Freezer Co. He picks up those security singles from this area.

Walking around the car park he spots a Chill Co. van.

 

Page 18/

He looks through the windscreen and teleports into the driver area.

He opens the door into the back and sees a enclosed area with some seats.

He teleports away.

 

Page 19/

Alfa and grenade met at a cafe again.

Talk about Miss Marple  the author. in between discussing their next steps.

They contact John and give him the info they have on AIF and the Circle area.

 

Page 20/

The two had to Circle with Alfa carrying Grenade as he teleports there.

 

Page 21/

Once there Alfa scans for cameras but falls to find them.

So Grenade decides to climb over the 15′ high fence with barbed wire on top.

He then uses his stealth to get to the door which is a locked and alarmed steel door. There are also barred windows and air vents.

 

Page 22/

Grenade finds the feed for the camera’s and puts them into a loop, using his security skills.

Then he uses his ability to open locks to open the heavy door.

 

Page 23/

Alfa teleports to the door.

The two of them see Kirk at the front desk and Grenade suggests that he takes them to Captain Chill.

‘We have an appointment’

Kirk, his name is on his badge gets up and moves to the secure door behind him which leads to a corridor, with doors to various rooms.

 

Page 24/

Kirk opens the first door in the corridor and says, ‘Captain, you have visitors’.

‘Kirk you are a  idiot!  get lost’. says Chill.

As he says this the air in the room gets very cold and frost starts to form on the walls and other surfaces.

 

Page 25/

Grenade tells Kirk to run and not disturb them. As he does he puts his hands onto the growing ice. He pits his power against Chills power to try to disrupt the creation of ice by making it shatter. He fails Chill has more power to control cold than he has to make things explode.

Alfa teleports behind Chill and grabs him.

Captain Chill forms a warrior out of the forming ice and says ‘Are you feeling the cold Dude?’ while trying to break free. He fails to break free he is just to weak compared to the robot strength of Alfa.

 

Page 26/

Grenade flips a powered up marble at the ice warrior, which explodes on contact blasting parts of the ice away.

Alfa teleports to the hospital car park, with a memory of total recall he can go any place he has been before. While restraining Chill.

The Ice warrior skates towards Grenade and then tries to stab him with its ice sword but fails to hit the nimble Grenade.

Chill again tries to break free.

 

Page 27/

Grenade leaps over and away from the warrior touching it as he goes and so activating its potential energy. It will explode next page.

Alfa teleports to the prison with Chill.

The Ice warrior turns and skates towards Grenade and again misses with its sword.

 

Page 28/

Alfa ‘Where is Jo?’

Grenade throws another marble to add to the coming explosion but misses for once. Then moves 60′ away into the corridor.

Boommmm

Ice Warrior cracks and bits fly off of it, but then its body reforms from the ice around it.

The warrior skates on the ice towards Grenade but is now out of reach with its sword.

 

Page 29/

At the prison the walls start to freeze.

Captain Chill tells Alfa, ‘Let me go and I let Jo go’

Alfa tries to bully Chill into giving her away. He threatens to teleport him into deep ice.

‘that will not hurt me’ Chill says. ‘No but lack of food etc will, Alfa replies.

Alfa tries again but Chill sticks firm saying that he knows a hero would not do that, and Alfa knows he is right he will not do anything he says he will.

 

Page 30/

Grenade throws another marble at the warrior. It hits and more ice flies off.

The Ice warrior skates forward towards grenade and again misses him with his sword.

But as Grenade watches the Ice warrior starts to melt away turning to water, as is all the ice around.

Chill must no longer be effecting this place.

 

Pace 31/

Grenade texts Alfa again, updating him. Then goes and finds Kirk and asks where Jo is and suggests he find new employment. Jo is in a lab 2 with others.

Alfa leaves a rapidly freezing prison and teleports to Grenade.

Grenade Texts John to tell him where they have put chill and about the base.

 

Page 32/

Alfa looks around the office area and finds the computer. He tries uses it to bring up a layout for the building, but fails to find one.

 

Page 33/

The two walk down the corridor to lab 2.

Bypassing the door lock, they open the door and Grenade looks the first person he sees in the eys and says, ‘Jo?’ while suggesting they tell the truth.

It turns out she is she against her will as the other four here where. Alfa, ‘you are free to go’ he says.

Jo says ‘what about the guards?’, Alfa says ‘we will deal with them go’.

 

Page 34/

The next door they open has maintenance  staff and cleaners which they also send away.

 

Page 35/

The last door they come to holds a training room and rest area for the guards.

There are 12 people in this area, some practicing with their chill guns on targets. Some resting and some having instruction by others.

There appears to be two Chill sergeants and ten henchmen.

 

Page 36/

Alfa calls on them to surrender, ‘Chill is behind bars and you are outmatched, give yourselves up now!’

The response is that there are 12 of us you are outnumbered, and we do not believe you can keep chill out.

Grenade, looks a sergeant in the eyes and suggests that he ought to tell the others to give in. ‘You want to convince them to lay down arms and leave this robot is armed and very dangerous.’

This works and the 12 guards run for it leaving their guns behind.

 

Page 37/

Grenade takes a target as a souvenir, while they wait for MI5 to arrive and take charge.

 

Page 38/

Mi5 arrive led by John and take control.

Alfa and Grenade head out and encounter a crowd of hospital staff and others including press.

 

Page 39/

Next days headlines and article by M Millington in the Chronicle.

Robot Alfa and criminal called Grenade cause havoc at Circle area including the hospital.

Patents and staff put in danger as area freezes over, stopping life threatening operations to stop.

Police say a criminal gang under a Captain Chill had a base there, but that effective security action had dealt with them.

It is rumoured that Alfa removed the Super powered villain to prison and freed the hostages while Grenade fought a Ice warrior however non of this can be verified.

Are these heroes causing more damage than the criminals they proclaim to stop?

This reporter wonders.
