Gunslinger and Nemesis didn't really seem to attract any fans.While on Patrol we got word that Astro Labs had been broken into.  We were close and went right there.  Nemesis scouted out with his ESP as I sneaked in.  The two of us went to the second floor while the others investigated the first floor.  The place filled up with this weird green gas.  I have no idea what it was but it even worked through Nemesis' gas mask.  I was a little stunned and that was just enough for the first android to knock me out cold.  His fist came right out of the green gas and I never saw it coming.  Even if I had I would not be able to do anything about.I wasn't out long.  Gunslinger was shotting and even though he was a floor below us I could hear the shots ring out.  I credit that to me coming to my senses.  The green gas had partially cleared and there were three androids near us.  Nemesis was in trouble.  Gunslinger had already taken out two of them below and came up to help us out.  He shot one but then they over whelmed him and he was injured pretty fast.  I knew I had to spring into action to save my buddy.  I did a kick flip to quickly get to my feat.  My first punch was a little bit off.  But after that I was able to do some damage.  I tumbled around on and came down with an axe kick on its injured body destroying.  The next one I was able to flip over and then come down with a powerful over head punch again at its exposed circuitry.  I was able to take those two out fast and Nemesis smashed the last one with a desk.About that time the police arrived.  By now most of you have seen the picture of what happened next.  I'm not even sure where that photographer came from.  Gunslinger was on the ground unconscious with serious wounds.  I rushed over to him and start giving him CPR and called out for an EMT.  The picture came with me doing chest compressions and calling for help.  I'll admit it was a very dramatic shot.  Someone got the picture as an 8 x 10, framed it, and then got it hung in the library of Freedom Hall.We gave the police full reports and they were thankful for our aid.  From there we came back to Freedom Hall and Gunslinger is in the care of our own medic team.  He should make a quick full recovery. That was my first official patrol as a member of Freedom League.  I don't know what the androids were up to exactly, just after some plans for something, but I know I'll rest soundly knowing that evil plot has been defeated.</blockquote>
