American Courage

The strangest things have been happening in and around Millennium City these days.
 
Take for instance this cargo ship "American Courage", it pulls into port early and has some type of leak or something that causes the water around to start boiling. Not only that, any living creatures approaching the boiling water get turned into molten metal. You heard right! Molten Metal - right there in the water!
 
Anyways, of course we have to investigate, is this a new supervillain threat? Is it something completely different (And I don't mean another Monty Python Sketch).
 
So the team goes to investigate, Maximum Resistance, WildThing, Sandcrab, Windwalker and me (Cypher). From tech I've taken from some of the other adventures we've had, I create some additions to my L'il Robot Army. Namely... (Grand entrance music) Fleetwood, a trio of minuscule robots only 2" tall with advanced surveillance capabilities. Christine, John & Lindsay are their code names. Christine goes to investigate the Cargo Ship, its been armed with Advanced Cannons, similar to those that were on site at Detective Noisewater's prison camp. Christine has no way to get down into the guts of the ship to see if there is some supervillain hiding out there.
 
Several times, Cypher offers WildThing some cough drops as her throat must be sore, it sounds so rough...
 
The Cargo ship seems like an obvious target and so we suspect it may be a trap, there are several people wearing protective aquatic suits taking readings within the water itself. We leave Christine to keep an eye on the boat.
 
We think about going onto the ship to see what's really going on but reconsider as we seek more intel about what exactly is going on here.
 
John finds us another cryptic scene to explore on the North side of the island. Here we find a lone guard apparently minding a couple crates of drill bits... How peculiar. He is however, wearing very high tech gear. A force field security belt and a sophisticated helmet with high tech defensive baffles that are difficult to break down. Cypher studies this helmet and wonders what its weaknesses are.
 
Maximum Resistance uses his High Range Radio skills to discover there are other secretive communications being relayed through the helmet. Something about tunnels being formed towards the boiling water and cargo ship.
 
Sandcrab spots a power generator with lines being fed down into the ground, he investigates and leads us to an underground complex where we pause to take our next steps!
 
What about Lindsay??? Good question...
