[QUOTE="DM_Matt, post: 4565163, member: 1213"] White gets a comm, and then reports "One of our guys just set off the self-destruct on Freedom Hall. We believe Ares was in there. He should be sufficiently wounded that he won't continue raiding the city. Speaking of which, that agent will join your team when he gets back. You could use a superspy." Meanwhile, Star wakes up, weak and groggy. She basically remembers what happened while possessed, except the end after getting shot by KB. Red checks her out obsessively, while White, having received a summary from the analysts, continues: "This is what we're hearing. Ares, Medea, and the other supers with them survived the blast, but were badly hurt. Medea managed to teleport them to the hotel, and one of their allies, probably Dr. Otaku, managed to break through the security perimeter on the boardwalk in some kind of heavily-armored ship, which they used to evac their guys. Ares, Maestro, Simian, Medea, Hiroshima Shadow, Orion, Wild Card, and the Animus Beast escaped. Possibly that guy with the sound gun too. It seems Wild Card was busy using the confusion to steal stuff. He and some mooks carried off the money from those casinos, as well as a couple banks. Fortunately, the police had already transferred Stratos, Devil Ray, Megalodon, and Black Star to another location, so they were not rescued.
