Nope, just a fire, no proverb to it at all

by Cypher

As last reported...
 
<I had a conversation with the computer unit controlling this doorway and I asked for it to not allow anyone else to access it to go through, it agreed> Cypher thinks a bit more <I sense that going through the portal takes longer than expected, is it possible a female prisoner hasn't made it all the way through yet? Unit 7265-431 replies that she hasn't emerged from the other end yet, {grinning to myself I ask unit 7265-431} to deny her access and return her to the dimensional gap, He agrees>.
 
Now the fun begins...
 
A full assault is under way as Cursed and Fire-Fighter attack Blue Wave. The rest of the team springs into action to defend our new comrade, good thing he can take a hit or two.
 
I shout out that "She's coming back!! To warn the others that ISackIran will be returning." Not really sure they hear me over the battle sounds. Stevie takes a shot at Cursed that makes him quite wobbly.
 
Windwalker and Faust are also attacking them, Ghost springs into action using her patented multiple attack. The two are knocked down, Cursed looks like he's down for the count but FF is only dazed. Then suddenly, the green skinned beauty is back and ranting...
 
How can she know where she is when she's still blind?? I think she's bluffing, She senses both Cursed and Fire-Fighter are nearby (maybe she smells the charred skin or something?) and begins to crawl towards them. Suddenly Faust flies at her full tilt hits her full force and knocks her back about 50 feet (he also goes along for the ride). That barely gives her pause! Maybe bringing her back here wasn't so wise a move after all?
 
I try to drain her defensive abilities to make her easier to hit, but instead of it working it seems to feed her - she smiles... Ghost tells me to stop healing her, I mumble something under my breath, "Well you do something then!"
 
Ghost whether acting on my directions or not goes in and pummels her twice, successfully knocking her out.
 
As we are catching our collective breath, I can hear Socrates' voice coming through the controlled robots voicebox. "Cypher can you close off the exit from this place?"
 
At least All the heroes and some new supers are present, Sandcrab being the last of our team to come through from the prison side.
 
We turn to face this new threat looming at us...
