Watching the crates be sucked into the "shadow pods" made Sean quite angry.

"She got away. Damnit. I will get her next time if it's the last thing i do!"

He then jumped about the newly arrived hovercraft and walked over to Heru.

"Great job back there Heru. I couldn't have taken out those enemies without you. You're a great addition to the team."

"You also proved to be quite useful human. There is a 95% chance of us working together again", Heru said in his monotonic voice.

You Fear Me, posted tihs in General Discussion, but in case you don't go there, here goes:

I'd be willing to make some villain dials for ya if you're running out of ideas. I have tons of ideas, and I'm not bad at making dials (IMO ). See my work in the D & D forum for examples.

Thanks for considering my offer.

let me redo my earlier post.

"Thanks, you aren't that bad of a team to begin with. I look forward to continuing our work.", Heru said in his rich voice.

Vladimir quickly summoned his Dust speck and told it to follow Twilight into the depths of the darkness. The dust speck reluctantly agreed, and promised to report back any news of interest.

Vladimir walked back onto the hovercraft, and locked himself in one of the supply rooms. He drew a rune circle on the floor with his nebulous dust in an attempt to inform the Cosmic hierarchy of the Shadow Mistress's treachery.

Watching the crates, Mercy sighed. She barely had enough energy to do that even.

She surveyed the battlefield. Walls were scorched, rubble sat silently, and the ground looked like it was going to drop into the depths of the Earth very soon.

Still, she was proud of how she and her teammates had performed. Up against a larger and more deadly, and more unknown threat, they had all acted nobly and fearlessly.

She wondered if anyone on the team still resented her for killing Deadeye. The team had acted normally in a combat situation. But she still felt like an outsider since Deadeye had died. The irony was that some of them still found opportunity to gaze at her backside. She could feel their stares, but ignored them. Men, she rolled her eyes. Then she remembered some of them still attended high school. She smiled. Boys.

Mercy stretched, but immediately doubled over. The blow from Hype at that speed, coupled with her overextertion and dehydration on the battlefield, made Mercy want to go sleep. But she had a feeling that with this group, she wasn't going to get much of that in the near future.

Gigawatt surveyed the damage, a feeling of satisfaction filling what would best be described as his soul. It had been some time since he had last returned to Whitney industries for a systems upgrade.

"I regret to inform you all that I must depart for a short time," Gigawatt said as he started to hover a few feet off the ground. "I must be upgraded for the possibility of any future threats. While my systems have proven thus far to be more than sufficient for our threats thus far, I have recieved transmission that some weapons upgrades are waiting for me. I am most interested in seeing what is waiting for me. I shall return shortly."

With that, Gigawatt flew through an open door and made a beeline for the nearest exit. He knew that some may not have been thrilled with his action, but they didn't own him. Whitney Industries did, and nothing could change that...



Barely an hour later, he arrived at Whitney Industries. What he found awaiting him would be more than enough to earn his forgiveness from his teammates.

Heru saw all the fighting had taken its toll on the surrounding area.

Why does this view seem familiar to me? Where have I seen this kind of destruction?

The fast human called out to Heru interrupting his contemplation, "Great job back there Heru. I couldn't have taken out those enemies without you. You're a great addition to the team."

Heru replied, still attempting to grasp what he seemed to almost remember, "Thanks, you aren't that bad of a team to begin with. I look forward to continuing our work."

Still with all that was happening, Heru decided that he shouldn't spend too much time figuring out something that might just be his imagination.

A quick jog outside showed the familiar Hovercraft ready to transport the team to a new location.
