    Ice walked towards her team mates in her new costume. Her bike was also waiting for her at the entrance. Her smile turned to a frown as she saw someone was sitting on her bike. Cap was sitting on her bike as if it was some kind of chair. Marauder was near a large object covered in a tarp. A similar tarp to the one that was once used to cover Ices bike.
    “You. Pill boy! Off the bike!” Ice snapped at Cap.
    “Come on someone’s got to give me a ride to the docks.” Cap said smiling at Ice.
    “Come on dude you just want to cop a feel” Omega stated smiling at Cap.
    “If you even try I am going to break your legs in half.” Ice said with a nasty smile.
    Marauder pulled the tarp off of a large desert vehicle. It was like something you would see in a movie. Marauder climbed in and looked towards Cap.
    “Looks like there’s enough space with Marauder Cap” Raven said as he elevated into the air.
    “I don’t think that’s a good idea…” Cap said clearly not comfortable with the idea of being in a car driven by a man with a metal arm.
    “Where is the badass who was here a few minutes ago?” Ice asked smiling as she put on her helmet.
    Looking defeated and disappointed, Capsule climbed into the Dune Buggy and sat next to the Marauder. Raven began flying ahead of everyone. Understandable, since considering the fact that while Ice had a bike, Marauder had that off road vehicle, and Omega had super speed. Unlike the rest of the group, Raven had little to no way of getting to the warehouse at a great speed.
    Ice started up her bikes engine and listened to the old girl purr. Marauder drove off quickly and Omega dashed off after him. Ice was left alone in the warehouse with her bike running. Two things ran through her head at this moment. The first was that if there was ever a time to back out, now was that time. The second was how much these guys had done for her over the last few weeks. If she turned around and ran away now, then how was she any better than the villains that she was fighting on a regular basis?
    “Screw it!” Ice said as she started the bike and sped off after the rest of the team.

    They pulled up to the warehouse to see that Omega and Raven were already there waiting for them. Ice was surprised that this was actually happening. She had a strange mix of fear and excitement running through her body as she got off her bike. This was what real superheroes did. They saved those who needed help, stuck together, and stopped evil psychopaths. Marauder stepped up to the group and began talking.
    “Are you all ready? This is not going to be an easy task and some of you might die. So if you want to run. Do it now” Marauder stated as he pulled off his cloak and mask.
    Nobody moved. Ice was rather proud of the pill boy, bird brain and average Joe. They could have left and went on with their lives by now. Why they stuck around, she would never know.
    “Okay. Here is the plan. Omega. You’re our shield. Make sure we are protected by anything.” Ice said smiling at the guys.
    “Deal.” Omega responded nodding at the group.
    “Raven. You’re our air support. For the love of God don’t get shot down.” Ice told Raven as if she was some kind of general.
    “Understood.” He responded spreading his wings ready for flight.
    “Marauder and I will try to get into the warehouse and stop whatever’s going on.” Ice said waiting for the obvious question from Cap.
    “What about me?” Capsule asked looked over the other guys.
    “You just kick as much ass as you can dude!” Omega said patting Capsule on the back.
    “Basically” Ice agreed in a rather cool tone.
    “So we are really gonna be doing this?” Capsule asked as they walked up to the chain linked fence.
    “Why? Having second thoughts?” Omega asked as he patted Capsule on the back.
    “I hope you die here!” Cap said smiling at Omega.
    “Not gonna happen.” Omega said laughing.
    With this said, everyone scattered into the yard to face their enemy.

    Nothing. There was none here. Raven hadn’t spotted anything from the air and was now on the ground. The place was deserted. Were they wrong? Was it too late? Ice felt somewhat defeated. Ice felt a hand on her back. Omegas hand was on her back as if to say “don’t worry”.
    “I’m sure we will find something here to help us.” Omega said smiling.
    Suddenly a loud noise was heard by all of the heroes. It was a loud firing noise coming from close by.
    “Everyone down!” Omega shouted as he was blown across the street by some form of wave.
    “Christ! I love this new toy!” The man announced appearing out of nowhere and leaping from the top of the warehouse to a crate just above them.
    In a red and yellow costume with pads on his knees and a mask on his face, he bounced from the crate on impact and flew across to atop a crane above them. His Australian accent and cocky attitude was known to Ice and she realised just how much trouble they were in.
    “RICOSHAY!”Ice shouted towards the cocky Aussie.
    “Present Love!” He said still holding the large weapon.
    “Ice! Omegas not getting up!” Cap shouted at Ice.
    Turning away from Ricoshay, Ice saw that this was indeed true. Omega had hit a solid iron container leaving a human shaped dent in the space he hit. But unlike every other hit he had sustained from a blast of energy, he was not getting up this time. Running over to Omega’s side, Ice quickly turned back towards the bouncing man.
    “What did you do to him?” Ice shouted at the Australian.
    “Shot him love. See the Brain has been studying this guy for a while. While having a bulletproof body he is not immune to everything. Turns out he can be beating to death, or in the case of this little beauty…” he trailed off as he lifted the large gun in the air.
    “Damage his insides to the extent of organ failure!” He said and began to laugh.
    “Come-on man you’re stronger than this!” Capsule shouted at Omega as blood ran from the wounded man’s mouth.
    “Bud. I am really tired…” Omega said as blood dripped from his lips and he let out a cough expelling some of it out.
    “Come-on…Stay with us!” Raven ordered Omega.
    “You said this wasn’t going to happen man!” Capsule shouted as he began shaking the limp body of Omega.
    Capsule took two pills and his hands grew bright. A bright light spread across his hands and illuminated the group.
    “What’s that?” Marauder asked.
    “I don’t know! But it might save him!” Capsule said placing his hands on Omegas dying body.
    “What do you mean you don’t know?” Ice asked as Omega just stared at the hands.
    “Its random okay!? I could be making it worse for all I know.” Capsule shouted in fear of losing his friend.
    “You can’t save him Capsule.” Marauder said as coldly as Tech.
    “I can try!” He shouted as his hands began to lose their illumination.
    After they had lost all their light,the group stood in silence. Omega was still dying and looked towards Ice.
    “Ice…am I dying?” Omega asked as Ice felt tears forming.
    Ice stayed silent just looking at the dying man. She felt tears running down her face as he stared weakly at her. Omega looked towards her and frowned.
    “Please…” He said coughing up more blood and grabbing Caps arm.
    “Just …win” he said as his head hung down and his grip on Capsules arm went limp.
    “I told him to die.” Cap said sadly in great despair. Ice placed her hand on his back.
    “He knew you didnt mean it.” Ice said trying to comfort him.
    “Aww. Aint that sweet!” The voice from behind them said.
    Everyone wiped their forearms across their eyes and turned towards Ricoshay. One by one.A look of anger on each of their faces.
    “Raven!” Ice shouted at Raven.
    “Right” Raven said taking flight into the air above them.
    “Where’s Tech!” Capsule shouted sound especially angry.
    “Oh he’s inside…But the boss man says that me and the boys can’t let you guys in” He said as three more men appeared out of thin air to greet them.
    Ice knew two of the men that had revealed themselves. Golem and Freezing point. However she did not know who the third man was. He smiled and pulled out a handle of what looked like a sword with no blade. He then pressed a button and a large laser like blade sprang from the hilt. The man wore goggles and seemed to be a rather large man in stainless steel.
    “And now let me introduce the boys.” Ricoshay shouted as he leapt down to the ground they all shared.
    “We all know Golem and Freezing point. But this fellow countryman of mine calls himself Silverback. And he wants a bit of the bird.” Ricoshay smiled and pointed towards Raven.
    Ice stared in anger at the bouncing man and his group of super villains. Golem looked like he had been waiting to get a hold of her for a long time and had a perverse look on his rock formed face. Both groups glared at each other from across an invisible line, waiting for the moment.
    “I want the bastard jumping bean.” Capsule stated through his teeth.
    “Boys. Time to go to work” He said as each hero and villain ran towards each other.

    Okay. Cadeyrn should be in a green tunic with runic embroding on it. Perhaps some Celtic ruins on his body as well having been the son of a Druid. He should wear a cloak to keep him warm in the winter. A simple wolf in sheeps clothing appearence. A warrior dressed as a villager would work. As for whether or not his tattoes should be shown is up to the weather. As he wears a simple peice of clothing or no shirt during the warm summers but for the rest of the year warm clothes to deal with the irish cold climate.
    Upon being enslaved by the romans his old clothes are burnt in front of him and is forced to wear rags that no longer honour his tribe or the people he once fought for. However he still wants to follow his dream and become like one of the many irish celtic heros he heard about in his youth. To be like Cú Chulainn or Fionn mac Cumhaill was always his dream, but now hes no longer sure if he can follow his dream.

    It worked! There was a large energy signal from across town similar to that of the one at Alice’s Home. Zooming in on the signature Marauder found that it was a shipyard across town where they were keeping Tech. The taste of victory however was short lived as a video link began between Ice and her companions and the man who kidnapped Tech. There on the screen was the brain floating in the jar connected to the large metal suit.
    “Guten Tag” The Titanium brain said over the video.
    “Alexander.” Marauder responded.
    “I see you have found my location by tracking Techs Belt. This is True yes?” Titanium brain asked.
    “Damn right you Nazi Mother-” Cap said but was soon interrupted by the brain.
    “I VAS NOT TALKING TO YOU!” The brain shouted in what appeared to be anger.
    “Occam’s…razor Ice.” A voice from behind the Brain said.
    “Vhat vas that?” The brain said as he revealed Tech.
    “Scorched ground Protocol” Tech said again as the brain shouted for men to take him away.
    Silence fell over both sides of the screen. Ice had heard what he said and was thinking about what it could mean. Was it a clue as to the password and if so what did it mean.
    Suddenly alarms began going off and the doors to the exits slammed shut. Something had happened and not one of the hero’s liked it.
    “Now I believe I have hacked into Techs computer and naturally set zhe Self-destruct mechanism on. Oh how Clumsy. Enjoy your deaths Heroe’s. Auf Wiedersehen!” He said signing off.
    Panic came over the heroes as Marauder opened the folder Plan 625. This place was going to be their tomb if they did not activate the code.
    “God Damnit Omega!” Cap said as he punched Omega.
    “This is all your damn fault! If we die I’m never talking to you again!” He said sounding rather childish.
    Marauder typed ‘Occam’s Razor’ into the computer hoping it was the right password.
    “Access Denied.” The computer responded.
    Raven pushing Marauder aside started typing. With only 30 seconds left according to the big clock on screen Ice continued to think. Raven typed “Tech” into the computer.
    “Access Denied” The computer responded for a second time.
    Suddenly Ice remembered a conversation both Tech and her a while back in regards to Occam’s razor. She flashbacked to the moment Tech found out who she was.
    “I have a question. What’s Occam’s Razor?” she had asked.
    “It’s a belief that states that in situations that have many different solutions the obvious answer is usually the correct one.”
    Rushing over to the computer Ice began typing.
    “What the hell are you doing?” Raven shouted as panic continued over the two fighting friends.
    “Occam’s Razor means that in situations with many different solutions the obvious answer is usually the correct one!” Ice shouted at Raven
    “I know that but what’s the obvious answer!” Raven shouted back.
    Ice typed in the most obvious password she could think of. “Password”
    “Access granted.” the computer said as the screen went blank.
    Ice spun her chair around and smiled at Raven, Omega, Marauder and Capsule. The doors began to open and so did everything that was locked automatically from Techs console. Getting up from the chair, she shook her hips in pride towards the men whose asses she had just saved.
    “If you ladies need me I’m going to get changed into my costume.” Ice said smiling at her fellow heroes with confidence.
    “Why?” Omega asked getting to his feet.
    “Well we are going to save Tech or…” Ice said smiling feeling the adrenaline rush through her body.
    “Die trying” she said smiling.
    Silence came over the men as Ice stood there in there in the doorway. They had all experienced so much over the last number of days and now was the time to show the world what they were made of. Cap broke the silence.
    “I guess it’s time for us to take the stage. No more foreplay. This Nazi robot wants us to play rough and while I can’t speak for the rest of you I am in a good mood to give it to him.” Cap said to the group smiling.
    “But let’s make this clear we are not gonna lay down and take it. We are gonna make the Kraut work for it!” Cap said lifting a cigarette to his lips and lighting it.
    “Let’s go there and grind all his men down to a thin red paste.” Raven said smiling at the team.
    “That’s showing me you have balls.” Ice said smiling as she felt something slap her ass.
    “HEY!!” Expecting Omega she turned around to see a smiling Raven.
    “Just in case I die” he said smiling at Ice.
    Ice returned the smile to the flying pretty boy. The room began to fill with laughter for a moment. Marauder left the room amidst the laughter.
    “That’s all your gonna get you know.” She said as she walked towards her room.
    The men made sure Ice couldn’t hear them before they began talking again.
    “There goes one hell of a girl” Cap said smoking his cigarette.
    “That’s true. Far too good for the likes of any of us.” Omega said scratching his head.
    “If she dies tonight we are no longer men. We are snivelling cowards. Condemned for hell.” Raven said coldly returning to his usual tone.
    “Got that right.” Cap agreed finishing his cigarette.
    “I’m not going to argue with ya Raven.” Omega said smiling.

    Ice put on her costume and smiled at herself in the mirror. She picked up her blue lipstick and softly pressed it against her lips. Looking at her reflection she remembered everything that led up to this point. Raven breaking into her apartment, meeting Tech, fighting off those two bank robbers, meeting the other Superhero’s and fighting with them against the bad guys, Tech finding out who she was and finally meeting the brain. All led up from a single night getting high on morphine. She wondered if she could return to her old life after this, or was it even possible. She hoped it was. She still wanted to be Ice and perhaps take this on full time. Jesus she had come a long way. If you asked her back when she started doing this ‘would you do it full time’? She would have told you to take your opinion and shove somewhere where it matters. Of course now it was different. She was different.
    Finishing her make-up Ice readied herself for the battle ahead. Picking up her motorcycle helmet she walked out to meet the guys at the entrance.

    Silence filled the room. Ice and the other heroes stood staring at the face of the Marauder. Removing his cloak and setting it down next to his mask, he walked closer to the group. He looked like he could be Tech brother or even his twin. The only problem was that this man clearly was raised in South Africa due to his accent, while Tech spoke with a more intellectual American accent. This was getting really damn weird. And Ice thought that the weirdest part of today was going to be talking to a brain in a jar. The silence was finally broken by Cap.
    “Okay! What the Hell is going on?” Cap said towards the group.
    “Shut up Capsule!” Raven said as he removed his own mask.
    Raven was a rather handsome man. He was a little feminine looking which Ice found rather strange for someone who clearly had seen the worst of humanity. He actually looked like he belonged on the cover of the magazine she used to work for, Flamingo, rather than patrolling the skies and fighting crime. Something clearly had broken Raven in the past to cause him to become this man. It was at this moment that Ice realised that she knew nothing about her new friends, besides the fact that they were the good guys.
    “My name is Tafari Maalouf. At least that is the name I was given after for the first few years of my life. However, the name I was given at birth was number three.” Tafari Maalouf said only to be interrupted by Capsule.
    “Oh boo hoo! Get to the point!” Cap said removing his hat.
    “I am getting to the point. During the cold war the leading scientists of the world came together in an attempt to make the perfect being. This was all kept a secret among the leaders and scientist’s that participated. Project Adam. The sperm cells were a mixture of several healthy, intelligent and great men that were paid a large amount for a small cup. Each fertilised egg was given a different compound labelled A-Z and then the eggs were placed into the female volunteers.” Marauder stated.
    “That would mean there were 26 children born.” Raven said folding his arms.
    “Actually, only 16 were born and some died shortly after their birth. In a way the offspring produced were siblings, but the experimentation didn’t stop at the birth. They children who survived were tested for five years to see what the effect of the substances had on the aging children. Some children found they had extraordinary abilities and then the bidding began. Each child was sold to the highest bidding country as weapons that had to be moulded. The cold war ended five years later rendering the project obsolete. The children were still weapons and needed to be taken care of. They had to be eliminated. Operation Pacifier was implemented and the slaughter of the remaining children began. There were some that survived however, by hiding and running from the soldiers. How many I cannot say. And that is where the story ends.”
    “And what? You and Tech are survivors?” Ice said finally breaking her silence.
    “Yes mam. We do not share the same mother, our abilities are not the same, and we were raised in different parts of the world but we are brothers.” He said his face scarred and familiar.
    “So what’s the Titanium brain got to do with all this?” Ice asked causing the room to go silent again.
    She realised that this was the first time she had mentioned Dr.Schwarz since she regained consciousness. The others didn’t seem to know the name, but she could see from the look on Marauders face that the name meant something.
    “So he is alive.” Marauder said.
    “Who is he? What does he want with Tech.?” Ice asked.
    “Doctor Alexander Von Schwarz was the head scientist of the Adam project and unknown to the other men and women involved a former Nazi officer. He wanted to create the perfect race of beings to lead in the name of the Fuhrer. However, he was a victim of one of the children’s abilities and was confined to a small robotic suit for the rest of his days. I thought he was dead” Marauder said.
    “There’s also a high chance he isn’t working alone, and has some form of a contingency plan if we find him and attempt to stop whatever he is planning.” Marauder stated opening up a map on the computer screen.
    “So you’re saying he’s ready for us no matter what we do?” Omega asked.
    “In simplistic terms. Yes.” Marauder answers.
    “Wait…So we are dealing with clones and Nazi’s with super suits?!” Ice said feeling like she was part of a 80s B-Movie.
    “Omega! How did you get me into this shit?” Cap shouted towards his friend rather frustrated.
    “Hey! I didn’t see this coming. I was just doing a favour for Tech and now I’m part of this!” Omega shouted with fear.
    “Why isn’t Alpha here!? He would know what do to!” Cap shouted looking around the room.
    “Alpha is at home! Someone has to be patrolling Wave Valley!” Omega shouted.
    “Would you two shut up?” Ice shouted sounding like a mother.
    “You think Tech would want us to fight like this! No! We need to find him and stop whoever this psychopath is!” Ice continued taking control of the situation.
    “And how are we going to do that?” Capsule said turning his attention towards Ice who was now getting up from the bed.
    “I don’t know. But at least I’m going to try and not bitch like a bunch of teenage girls.” Ice said facing the group.
    Cap voicing his opinion said “So what you’re gonna magically find Tech and then somehow…”
    His opinion was quickly cut short by a fist. It wasn’t the fist of Raven, Ice, or Marauder, but the fist of Omega which sent Pill boy off his feet and to the ground in pain.
    “What the hell was that for Asshole?” Cap shouted rage filling his eyes.
    “Ice is trying! Unlike us she is trying to stop this guy and save Tech. It may not be the ideal situation but god damnit it is better than blaming everyone here….” Omega said offering a hand to Capsule.
    “This is our life buddy. The life of capes, super powers and insane assholes who think their owed something.” Omega continued helping Cap up.
    “So I say we stop acting like scared kids because daddy’s away ,and hunt this guy down and kick his ass!” Omega said trying to be inspiring and failing.
    “Okay…”Cap said rubbing his nose.
    “But not because of that speech. I’m only doing this because I wanna kick some Nazi ass!” Capsule said smiling at Omega.
    “Such a strange set of friends.” Raven said shaking his head.
    “Says the girly looking bird boy.” Ice said smiling at Raven.
    Then for the first time that Ice knew him the Raven began laughing. This was her team and she had just been appointed their leader. Suddenly something came to Ices mind. Tech was the smartest guy on the planet, he would have obviously had a plan in place in case something like this was to happen.
    “Guys! Has anyone checked to see if Tech left something behind for us in case this happened?” Ice asked.
    The Marauders and Ravens eyes widened and they bolted out of the room towards Techs computer. Ice, Omega and Cap shared glances and quickly followed them.
    “That’s a no then.” Ice said following the men.

    Marauder was typing quickly on the computer searching for files or videos that would help them. He came across two folders that were labelled “Plan 652: Scorched ground” and “Teleportation Belt”. They attempted to open the folder “Plan 625” but ran into difficulty. A password was needed for access unfortunately. Ice watched as each of them tried to guess what the password could be. It would take years of research to find out what Tech would use as a password. Ice was so frustrated. She needed to find what was on the files.
    “Let’s try the other folder. Maybe there’s a clue inside of it that could help us.” Capsule said.
    Opening the other folder a video popped up of Tech using the belt Ice had seen him with earlier. He stated that it made him very sick after using it as a result of his matter being moved so fast that his body couldn’t take it. It was just a simple research video he was doing. But something he said caught Ice’s attention. The power of the belt was specific and therefore needed to be charged for a certain amount of time after usage.
    “Guys!” Ice said as an idea came to her.
    Pausing the video they all turned to face Ice. It was like someone was interrogating her now. The spotlight was on her.
    “What if we look for traces of large energy sources in specific areas.” Ice said trying not to sound like an idiot.
    “That…Might just work!” Marauder said as he got to work.

    “Hey Magma Mouth!” Ice shouted as she slowly walked down the stairs.
    Ice wished she had come up with a better insult then “Magma mouth”, but she was in too tense a situation to really focus on what insults would be the best for this kind of situation. She gripped the bannister as Golem looked up at her with anger in his eyes and the brain in the suit motioned towards her. From what she saw the brain did not have any eyes, or any other organs in view besides his brain.
    “Word through the grapevine is your looking for me. Any truth to that?” Ice said faking a smile as she looked down towards them.
    “Oh I have been looking for you snow bitch.” He stated with a disturbing laugh.
    “Yeah keep laughing rocky at least I’m not like a ken doll where it counts.” Ice said to the no longer laughing Golem.
    “Oh such a smart mouth un this von” The brain in the suit shockingly said.
    “Holy crap you can talk?” Ice said looking over at the brain.
    “Oh Vhere are mien Manners?” The suit said with a chuckle.
    “Dr. Alexander Von Schwarz. Now known as Ze Titanium Brain. Me und my associate’s do not vish for a fight…”He continued before being interrupted.
    “YOU don’t want to fight. I want to burn this bitch to ash!” Golem said licking his lips.
    Sighing Dr. Schwarz started typing something onto the monitor on his wrist. Suddenly the Golem began to scream in pain as even began to punch himself. His warped screams of agony caused filled the room. Ice took a few steps down the stairs towards the two.
    “Now now Golem. Mien first rule vas do not act against me.” Dr.Schwarz said as he turned the knob on his wrist device.
    “OH GOD MAKE IT STOP!” Golem screamed in pain as the good doctor started fidgeting with his wrist again.
    “You vant me to stop?” He said as Golems screams grew louder and his movements began to mimic that of someone having a seizure.
    “YES! PLEASE!!”He screamed in agony.
    Dr. Schwarz pressed a button on the monitor and turned towards Ice who had made it to the ground floor. Golem suddenly stopped screaming and slowly rose to his feet looking ashamed.
    “Now vhere vas I?” He said returning his attention to Ice.
    “Oh yes..I vish for your employer’s location. Mr. Tech. As he can help with mien…situation.” He explained to Ice.
    Ice didn’t like this guy. There was too many questions that needed answers about all this that she doubted the brain would answer. Concentrating, she was getting ready to freeze the now rambling Dr. Schwarz and his molten rock companion. Suddenly two metal tendrils erupted from the back of Dr. Schwarz suit and grabbed onto her arms dragging her towards him. Heat emitted from the tendril’s burning her hands and stalling the use of her powers.
    “Now Now…vas that really necessary? Cryo Kenisis is impressive, this is true. BUT! You rely on it far too much. Now. If you do not help me I vill release golem on you and watch as he rips you apart piece by piece. Like a dog with bone.” Dr. Schwarz said as his tendrils began to twist Ice’s arms.
    “I vonder vhat vould happen if I broke your arms?” He said as he continued to twist her arms and Ice began to shout in pain.
    “You promised me the girl!” Golem shouted at the Titanium brain.
    “Und I am in charge!” The brain said towards Golem. Ices screams now filled the room. She was powerless now. She couldn’t concentrate on anything but the pain she was now in.
    “I have just dislocated your arms. Now…vhere is Mr. Tech?” Dr. Schwarz asked pulling Ice closer to where his face would be.
    “HERE!” Tech said from the top of the stairs.
    Tech looked weaker than he had earlier. Alice seemed to be helping him walk as they came down the stairs. Ice was now really pissed off at Tech. She had just gotten her arms dislocated defending the son of a bitch and now he gives himself up.
    “Guten Tag Tech. You look vell.” Dr.Schwarz said dropping Ice as if she was a doll.
    “I know what you want me for Schwarz. If I come with you…- cough-” Tech began only stopping to cough.
    “If I come with you…You leave her alone.” Tech finished trying to keep face in front of the man bot.
    “Deal!” Dr. Schwarz said folding his metallic arms.
    Ice barely lifted her body off the ground and saw Tech weakly activating the teleportation device.
    “TECH NO!” Ice screamed but was quickly silenced by the cold metal hand of Dr. Schwarz.
    Everything went black as Ice fell unconscious.

    Ice awoke to voices. Voices that she recognised almost instantly as Cap, Raven and Omega.
    “Ice wake up!” Raven shouted.
    Ice sprung up and noticed her joints were fine and realised that while she was out the guys must have used the nano-bots on her body to heal. Or they just re-located the joints.
    “Hey guys…” Ice said smiling at the concerned men.
    “Oh thank God! She’s awake.” Cap said in a rather rude manner.
    “She has a name and the ability to freeze you” Ice said smiling at cap.
    The family moment was quickly forgotten when the memory of where she had been beforehand quickly struck her. Tech wasn’t here!
    “Where is Tech!” Ice shouted springing up from the table.
    “That is a question we were hoping you would answer my dear.” The new voice entered the room.
    “Who is that?” Ice asked watching the doorway.
    “We met briefly. I am the Marauder” The gas mask wearing man said while entering the room.
    “He can help us.” Raven said folding his arms at Ice.
    “How?” Omega asked.
    “Tech and I share a…link if you will.” The marauder said as if revealing a huge secret.
    “What are you Twins?” Cap said laughing a little
    “Actually in a way yes.” The marauder said.
    Suddenly the room went quiet. The marauder removed his mask to reveal, under the brown hood and gas mask was a dark skinned man who looked almost identical to Tech.
    “I suppose explanations are needed?” He said in a thick south African accent.

    I sat in my apartment and drank scotch, while listening to the songs of artists long since dead. Sometimes the alcohol would help me forget, and sometimes it just made things worse. Here I was “Justice’s” Shield drinking away my sadness as I slowly died. This wasn’t going to be one of those times when the scotch would help. I sighed and turning off the music, I switched on the T.V to the news and left my living room to enter the kitchen. Marcy would be here later and I had to cook something. The news was loud in the background as I examined the ingredients.
    “And so Marks the fourth day since Morpheus Crowley has been missing.” The female voice said from the living room.
    Mr Crowley was last seen leaving work a week ago by his co-workers at the Cryo-stasis prison where he is the head doctor.” She continued as I began slicing vegetables.
    “Along with the disappearance of Mr Crowley, Four prisoner cubes have also gone missing.” This piece of information stopped me in my tracks.
    Did she just say four prisoner cubes had gone missing? I ran into the living room and saw the picture of a balding man who looked like he was happiest when everyone around him was miserable. Turning up the volume on the T.V I waited hoping she was about to give more information on who was in the cryo-cubes.
    “No information about the prisoners has yet to be released as to not cause hysteria amongst the people of our fine city. While there is no proof thus far that the two are connected. The police force are searching for anyone with information about these events” She said as I folded my arms and listened carefully to her voice.
    “Returning to the top story of this evening. People are still claiming to have seen members of the former League of Superhero’s known as “Justice” around the city. The police have shunned these rumours saying they are nothing at all but wild stories.” The women went on.
    “But could this be the return of “Justice”?” She said raising her eyebrow to the camera.
    “This has been your Six O clock news. I am Harmony Jones. Good Evening.” The woman finished leaving me fearing the worst of the situation. Why would someone steal four prisoner cubes? It was not knowing who they belonged to that scared me the most. I quickly poured another glass of scotch when I heard a knock on the door.
    “Who is it?” I said slowly approaching the door.
    “Your date birthday boy!” Marcy said on the other side.

    Marcy was smiling as she walked around my apartment but was far too early. She turned to face me and I noticed she was still in her trainer uniform.
    “You’re early” I said smiling at her and approaching her.
    “I couldn’t wait any longer.” She said smiling at back at me.
    “And…I got bad news. I can’t make it later tonight.” She said wrapping her arms around my neck.
    “What are you doing?” I asked.
    “Surely you’re not that old…I’m going to kiss you” She said teasing me as she pressed her lips against mine.
    Her lips tasted of cherry as she kissed me. I smiled as I ran my hands down her body and pulled her closer to me. I felt alive for the first time in a long time. She pulled away smiling at me as if she was very proud of my actions.
    “Thank you…” She said softly in a beautiful whisper.
    “For what?” I asked looking into her pretty hazel eyes.
    “I know who you really are.” She said smiling in a way that scared me.
    “What?” I asked breaking away from her quickly. Worry taking over my body.
    “I know your Mr Invincible” She said with a confused sad look on her face.
    I felt my stomach twist again and I quickly retreated back to my glass of scotch. There was no civil way of saying how much trouble I was in if she was one of the people that nightmare talked about.
    “Where did you come up with that accusation?” I said drinking down my glass of scotch.
    “I know it’s you. Look…18 years ago. You kind of saved my life. I’ve had the biggest crush on you since.” She said catching my attention.
    “Not in the stalker way I mean. I have just always wanted to know you and…Wow I am not helping myself am I?” She said her confidence now gone and what remained was a fan girl.
    “How do you know that I am THE Mr Invincible? What if we just look alike?” I asked her wondering if I could trust her at all.
    “I am sure you’re him.” She said sounding slightly doubtful.
    “I should leave…” She said sounding like she was on the verge of tears.
    “Wait Marcy…..” I said stopping her.
    I knew I was going to regret this but I suppose I owed it to her for that hell of a kiss. She turned back towards me with tears forming in her eyes.
    “Here I owe you this” I said as I picked up the knife from the counter.
    Poor girl was terrified at this action. She must have thought I was going to be a Patrick Bateman kind of guy when I picked up the knife. Putting the blade on my wrist I looked over at her.
    “No…Please you don’t have to prove you’re not…” She shouted as I slashed the blade alone my wrist.

    No blood on the blade or cut in my arm. She looked in shock at me as I put the blade back down. For the first time ever, I had revealed my identity to someone. It felt nice.
    “You are him!” She shouted in excitement running towards me.
    Leaping up on top of me, I fell back to the ground a twenty-eight year old on top of me furiously kissing me. If this was her method of assassination, I had to admit I enjoyed it.
    She began fiddling at my clothes in some kind of an attempt to strip me clumsily. I laughed as she herself began stripping. This was by far the most romantic and funny experience I had ever had, which is probably why I enjoyed it so much. Suddenly a pop song started playing and Marcy stopped. She pulled her phone out of her pocket and put it to her ear.
    “Hello?” She said into the phone.
    “Busy?” I asked. She quickly put a finger to my lips.
    “No! I’m a little busy right now!” She said blowing a kiss at me.
    “Common…Have Pamela do it!” She said her expression changing from that of happiness to disappointment.
    “Yes I want to keep my job” She said now angry with the caller.
    “God damn it ….fine” She exclaimed hanging up.
    Looking down at me her face darkened with sadness. A perfect moment ruined by some asshole on the other side of a phone.
    “I have to go to work….Can we reschedule?” She said putting on a smile for me.
    Feeling disappointed I smiled back at her. Running my hands over her legs I winked at her.
    “Sure. When do you get off?” I said watching her as she got up off of me.
    “I’ll let you know” She said writing something down and handing it to me. I sat up and took it off her. It was her number.
    “Call me” She said as she left my apartment, leaving me with a smile and a number.

    After Marcy had cancelled our date, I decided to order some take out and listen to some Sam Cooke for the night. I had called twenty minutes after Marcy had left and ten minutes later I was still waiting around getting drunk on Scotch. Suddenly my phone rang and I answered it.
    “Hello?” I said into the phone expecting the good doctor.
    “Look outside your window” A static voice said.
    “Who is this?” I asked sitting up in my leather seat.
    “Are you a betting man?” The voice asked as I stood up.
    “Who is this right now or I am hanging up!” I ordered looking around in an attempt to spot them.
    “YOU HANG UP AND THAT GIRL YOU WERE WITH EARLIER TONIGHT DIES!” They shouted over the phone causing me to stop looking and obey their orders.
    “What do you want?” I asked approaching the window.
    “We want you to see what we have done. If you hear us out she will live.” It said as I looked down at the people below.
    Below there was flashes of red light and flames spreading below. Police blocked from a bright yellow shield that burned anyone who went near it. I recognised the shield and the blasts. The Red queen, Stretch, Nightmare, And Bullet were below and fighting Toxin and Warhawk! Stretch was on the outside of the shield and Nightmare was trying to find a way inside of it. The stolen convicts must have been former enemies of Justice! I felt fear run through my body for the first time in a long time.
    “You see it…The last remnants of a lost age. The forgotten titans of this fine city.” The voice said as my hand shook.
    “What do you want from me?” I asked as I stared down at my former comrades.
    “I want nothing but I am offering you a job.” the voice said to my surprise.
    “I am creating a group to get rid of these nuisances. But I could use another set of hands. You have a choice in front of you sir. I want you to put on your old costume and burn it while you wear it. Being Mr Invincible you won’t feel the pain many others feel.” It said as I continued to stare.
    “Why burn it while I wear it?” I asked feeling as if all the pain in my life came to me at once.
    “It’s a form of baptism my friend. Baptism By flame.” It said proudly.
    I walked towards my bed and opened the bottom of it and saw Mr Invincible staring back at me.
    “What’s my other option?” I said as I took my old costume out of hiding.
    “Well you could go down there and fight with your comrades. No harm would come to the girl as long as you never go near her again.” It started before I interrupted.
    “But you will hunt me down like a dog along with the other former members of Justice correct?” I asked as I slipped on my old tights.
    They still fit like they used to. Putting on my bracers I awaited his answer.
    “My dear boy…You can’t die. You have tried killing yourself in the past with no affect. Hunting you down would only add to my enjoyment. For you see unlike the rest of the team you can’t die, not even by your own hands. But you will witness all of their deaths one by one.” I stopped as I fastened my belt around my wait.
    He was right. I had tried to kill myself. When I found out I had cancer I wanted to end it all. A simple bullet through the brain to end it all. But nothing. The bullet either slid down my throat or dented in my skull. Tears began to form I’m my eyes as I put on my shirt. Standing up I walked towards my balcony.
    “And that will be your punishment.” He said as I felt a tear run down my cheek.
    Looking at my mask I put it on and looked across to the opposite building.
    “Yes perfect….Now grab the lighter I had placed on the table and light up.” He said as I picked up the lighter.
    Below I saw that my comrades were losing to the young villains. This of course was no surprise. Toxic was in his early thirties when we caught him and Warhawk was in his 20s. The people he once called allies were below losing to the people they put away so long ago. But how many more would die because of this? If I took this offer I could save more people than if I rejected it. But if I take the offer they die. I lit my arm on fire and heard a clapping from the phone. The fire spread from my arm all over my body. My comrades lay defeated on the ground below. All of them tired and bruised. Nightmare was right. We were being hunted down by some crazed man who knew who we were…..

    …..And I hated being screwed with. Rolling over the balcony I fell at great speed towards the huge shield. The flames Making me the brightest thing in the sky and receiving a lot of attention from both the crowd and villains below. My entire body hit the shield with great force sliding through it and burning my body with the Toxic chemicals that made it so dangerous to anyone besides myself.
    “Mr Invincible?!” Toxin said as he lowered the shield.
    “Who let you out?” I asked angry with my decision.
    I couldn’t have just let these idiots die could I? No…I guess I couldn’t.
    “Oh my you have gotten old haven’t you? Hasn’t he Warhawk?” Toxin said as he got closer to me.
    “Oh he has Toxin.” Warhawk said as he landed.
    “I won’t repeat myself.” I said as both men approached me from opposite ends.
    “What’s that?” Toxin said raising his hand to his ear in a mocking fashion.
    “Speak up old m-aCK!” He choked as I grabbed his throat.
    Warhawk nervously fired all he had at me to save his friend. My grip tightened as I spun around and hit Warhawk with the burning toxic skin that coated Toxin. His weapons melted at the contact of Toxins body to his armour. He was now harmless and had nowhere to run.
    “What the hell!?” He shouted as he stared in fear at me.
    “You said none could touch you man!” He shouted as he backed away from me.
    “Oh did he now? He’s right you know! Any normal person would die from touching him.” I said as I squeezed his throat.
    “But I AM NOT NORMAL AM I!” I said as I slammed Toxin to the ground.
    The rest of the team got up and stared at me as Warhawk backed away in fear.
    “I’m giving you this one chance. Run! Never come back. Never let me see you here again or else.” I said and watched as the melted armoured man ran away.

    See I dont see that. But of course that could be because I made him. The reason I made him like that was because I noticed a lack of creepy ass clowns.
