At the White House, Martin, David and the rest of the White House are watching the news addressing the Supers fighting the Purifiers in Los Angeles, Brazil, and Boston.
Vickers: Ma'am, we really should consider taking on Daniels offer of this cure. As you've seen, the Enhuman factions are fighting on American soil again...
David: But, the Supers are fighting the Purifiers to protect the humans, not to mention, we have the possibility of an alien race in Greece....
Martin: The Supers aren't the threat right now.
Lowe: But the Purifiers are....and if these fights continue on our American soil, then there won't be an America left.
Martin: But if we approve of this cure and these aliens become hostile, there might be a planet left. For now, we wait until I see further reason.
At Parker Tower, the team is attempting to locate Charles.
Josh: Damn it. Anything?!
Alex: No...
Eva: V.O.X.?
V.O.X.: I'm still having trouble locating Master McGregor. They must've taken him to a secure area that's off the map.
John: And what about the Aquila crystals?
V.O.X.: There still in Ireland in the base. Charles hasn't given up the location just yet.
Josh looks around to notice Trisha missing.
Josh: Where the hell is Trisha?
Maria: I don't know. I'll go look for her.
Kala: Any idea of where the Purifiers would go?
Eva: No.....I don't know where else they could go.
John sighs.
James: Dad? You okay?
John: Fine.....just wondering why the hell would Adrian work with Krylla? What did she offer?
Eva: Isn't it obvious, Dad? She offered what Tombs has always wanted. Enhuman dominance over the humans.
John: He doesn't realize what will happen if Krylla gets what she wants.
In the high tech level hall, Maria is looking for Trisha.
Maria: Trisha? Trisha?
Suddenly, coughing and puking is heard in the lavatory as Maria knocks.
Maria: Trisha, you good?
In lavatory, Trisha cleans her face up in the mirror.
Trisha: I'm fine.....just...just give me a minute, okay?
Trisha exits the lavatory and is approached by Maria.
Maria: Hey, you okay?
Trisha sighs.
Trisha: I don't know....
Maria: Well, something's bothering you....I thought Enhumans don't normally get all pukey.
Trisha: They don't.....but they still throw up every once and a while....Josh's gonna be a father, Maria. I'm pregnant.
Maria gives a big smile.
Maria: What? I'm going to be a aunt?
Trisha wipes a tear.
Trisha: Yeah....
Maria: Wow....
Trisha looks down and shakes her head.
Trisha: What am I going to say to him?
Maria: Girl, he's gonna find out sooner or later.
Trisha: We never really had mom to prepare for this....other than Dad, you know?
Maria: I know, baby.....but we're going to get through this....You know; I know you're tired of me saying this, but, Trisha, if you're pregnant, you should seriously consider that cure.
Trisha scoffs.
Trisha: Oh, god, Maria.
Maria: Look, little sis. Just think, okay? How are you and Josh going to raise a child as Enhumans? As Superheroes?
Trisha: When you ask that question, I look at John and his kids. Thinking if they can raise children as Enhumans, I can, too.
Maria sighs, before the two are approached by Kala.
Kala: Uh....hi.
Trisha: How much have you heard?
Kala: Enough to know that Josh's going to be a father. Congratulations, by the way.
Maria sighs.
Trisha: Shit....
Kala: Don't worry. I'm not going to say anything.....but I have faith that you'll be a better mother than me.
Kala shakes her head, before Caspian walks up to the three women.
Caspian: Excuse me. I hope this isn't a bad time.
Kala: Whoa!
Maria: What the hell?!
Maria equips her staff, preparing to attack.
Maria: Who are you?! One of those aliens?!
Trisha: Whoa, hey, hey! It's okay! He's not one of those aliens! He's a sea dweller and a friend!
Caspian: Hello, Trisha. It's so good to see you again.
Trisha: It's good to see you, too.....I hope you all don't mind. I brought company with me.
On the other end of the hall, Neptune, the Sea Guardian, squeezes through the hall.
Neptune: Hello, Enhumans...and other human.
Maria: Holy shit.....
Kala: Is that a shark?
Trisha: Neptune?
Maria: You know this thing?
Trisha: Hell yeah. He sided with Ramses when he almost flooded the world.
Neptune: It's okay, guys. Caspian asked the other Guardians and I to help maintain order in Atlantis....order as in keeping the peace the sea world and the surface world.
Neptune grunts.
Neptune: Is there anywhere that's not so tight that we can discus somewhere more open?
In the Grid, John, James, Eva, Josh, Alex, and Jessica are attempting to locate Charles on the grid map just as Trisha, Kala and Maria return.
Joseph: Everything okay?
Trisha: Yeah....yeah...everything's fine.
Kala: Uh, John...you've got some company, too.
Caspian enters the Grid, with Neptune following behind him, squeezing through the door.
Neptune: Oh, yeah, much better...
John: Caspian.
Neptune turns to John and James.
Neptune: James and John Parker.
James: Neptune.
Neptune: Uh...No hard feelings about you know....me almost....?
Neptune mimics eating.
John: Agh....it's cool.
James: Is it? This guy did help Ramses out...
Neptune: And Ramses is right now imprisoned in the trenches....and now, I'm here with the true Atlantean king helping out Enhumans.....
Caspian: In his own free will...
Neptune: That and honestly, I had nothing better to do other than scare the shit out of teens that were skinny dipping.
Alex: Okay, then...
Caspian looks around.
Caspian: Where is Charles?
James: We're trying to find him. The Purifiers captured him. He and the Threll formed an allegiance and right now, Charles is one of the few that knows where the Aquila Crystals.
Caspian: The ones you were informing me about before.
James: Yes...we've tried locating him, but we've had no success.
Caspian: Is there anywhere you can think of?
Alex: We've looked everywhere....V.O.X. can't locate him and we've conducted scans on the whole planet.
Josh: Still nothing....
Caspian: Hmm....
V.O.X: Wait....Master McGregor has activated his tracker.....
The team rallies in front of the Grid map.
John: Where is he, V.O.X?
V.O.X: Master McGregor's location is latitude; 51 degrees, 30 minutes north. Longitude: zero degrees, seven minutes west.
Joseph: Where is that?
Alex: London.....The Professor is in London.
Jessica: That is impossible. London was lost in the flooding like South America and Egypt....
John: It makes sense, though. The Purifiers hiding in a destroyed city....
Eva: Someplace the public wouldn't think to look.
James turns to John.
James: Dad....it's worth a shot, don't you think?
John twists his lips.
John: Alright. Here's the plan; I don't know how long Charles will hold out on the location of the Crystals, but we can't take chances just in case.
John turns to Alex and Jessica.
John: Alex, Jessica, I want you two to go to Ireland and guard those crystals.
Jessica: You got it.
Alex: John, not to question you, but why us?
James: Because you, Charles and I are the only two that might be able to calculate how the crystals and work and if the Purifiers or Krylla kills Charles or me, it might be up to you.
Alex nods in understanding.
Kala: I'll give you some back up, too.
Jessica: Are you sure, Kala?
Kala: Yes, I'll help as much as I can.
Caspian: Neptune, go with them. Guard those crystals in case the Purifiers manage to know their location.
Neptune: Yes, my king.
John: The rest of us are going to London to rescue Charles. Let's hope they haven't broke him.
In the abandoned London, an ruined building, Scarlett, Mongor, Switch, Snake-Bite and Ravage are watching the news report of the recent actions of the Purifiers and Supers, amongst the Purifiers is another brute with a skull mask named Gridiron. Tombs and Krylla walk into the room.
Tombs: Shut that goddamn TV off. We need to talk.
The Purifiers turn off their TV and turn their attention to Tombs, who speaks.
Tombs: My Purifiers, we have been called many things for so many years. Murders. Freaks. Killers. Assassins. Villains...but in our perspective, we've always done what's right for us. My children, we have to act now.
Switch: How? We can't stop em. We're outnumbered.
Krylla: And what's why we're here. Once the Owl gives up the location of the crystals, I will open the portal and my Threll will come through and begin to overthrow the human planet....with you all watching.....
Scarlett: How do we deal with the Supers?
Krylla: You cannot hold back anymore.....You all must kill them.
Scarlett's eyes widen at that, before she turns to Tombs, then back at Krylla.
Scarlett: Kill the Supers?
Krylla: Is that a problem, Scarlett?
Scarlett: I...No...No...not at all.
Tombs: We are going to stop them....we are going out there to kill....we are going out there to be the conquerors of the world!
Scarlett looks at her father with concern.
Scarlett: Dad...I haven't always agreed with Parker, but are you ready to kill someone who was once your friend?
Tombs sighs.
Krylla: Why the hesitancy, Scarlett?
Scarlett: It's just...you're asking to kill your own husband and your kids.
At that, Krylla grabs Scarlett by the throat, putting her sharpened tentacles at her eye.
Krylla: Sara Parkers' children! Sara Parkers' husband! Not mine! I am Krylla! Understand?!
Krylla throws Scarlett to the wall as she clutches her neck, before Krylla exits the room. Scarlett looks up at Tombs.
Scarlett: What? Were you just gonna let that bitch kill me?
Tombs: I....
Tombs sighs.
Tombs: You shouldn't have pissed her off, Scarlett. What Krylla is doing is for our people.
Scarlett looks down at the ground and shakes her head. In another section of the building, Charles is strapped to a chair, beaten as Krylla enters and approaches Red Dragon.
Krylla: Well?
Red Dragon: He's not going to talk.
Krylla: Damn it, Xiang. I was told you were at making her talk.
Arachnica: Please, Krylla. If you want a man to talk, you have to get a woman's touch.
Arachnica enters the room and approaches Charles.
Arachnica: Charles, your loyalty to John is amendable, but....
Arachnica sprouts spiders out of her wrist as they begin to crawl all over onto his arm.
Arachnica: Birds sometimes get eaten by spiders....now, tell me, Charles. Where are the crystals?
Charles screams in pain, before he looks up and screams, then he glares at Arachnica.
Charles: I'm not telling you shit.
Outside of London, Dragonfly brings up a holographic image of the building.
Dragonfly: Dad, I've found him.
Quantum: Where?
Dragonfly: 30 St Mary Axe. Top floor.
In the 30S St Mary Axe, Charles is still being interrogated.
Charles: You're all idiots! Every goddamn one of you! Following this alien bitch, because she offers Enhumans peace?! She's lying! She's lying to you all!
Arachnica: Tombs has offered you all many chances. Now, I won't be as nice as Red Dragon. I'll ask again; where are the crystals?
Charles looks up at Arachnica, whose spider legs cling onto the edge of Charles chair, leaning him on the edge as below, a barrage of sharpened debris.
Arachnica: It's your choice, doc. You can tell before you fall or after you fall and you won't be able to fly your ass out of this one.
Charles gives an angry glare.
Charles: Go to hell.
Before Arachnica can react, Sun Sorceress, Neon Crane and Dragonfly burst into the room.
Sun Sorceress: Evening, everyone.
Suddenly, Quantum bursts into the room through the other door. Red Dragon equips his whips, before Arachnica uses a spider leg to whack Charles off to the floor below.
Neon Crane: Charles!
Neon Crane light jumps and manages to save Charles with a neon rope.
Neon Crane: Got him!
Arachnica shoots webs Quantum, who blasts the webs with his laser vision. Sun Sorceress and Red Dragon duel with Red Dragon kicking Sun Sorceress away. Quantum then super flies and tackles Red Dragon out the window. Krylla appears and fights with Dragonfly.
Dragonfly: Mom....
Krylla: Not your mother, boy.
In the lower level, Charles is strapped to the chair before Neon Crane and Power Surge appear, tending to Charles.
Neon Crane: Oh, god. Charles....
Power Surge: Charles? You okay?
Charles: Uh....barely...don't worry about me, kids. Go help the others.
Neon Crane: Don't worry. We're gonna get you out of here.
Suddenly, the monster Prague jumps down, causing Power Surge and Neon Crane to turn to him.
Monster Prague: Remember me?
Power Surge: Holy shit....
Monster Braka jumps down to confront the heroes.
Monster Braka: Won't be so easy to kick our asses this time.
Power Surge: Jeez...what happened to you guys? Took a little power trip cocktail?
Before Monster Braka can attack, Neon-Ghost shoots neon beams at his back.
Neon-Ghost: Go!
Neon Crane cuts Charles free while Power Surge bolt speeds at Monster Prague, bolt speeding and punching Monster Prague repeatedly, before Charles kicks him out the window and engaging a fight in free fall. In the 30 Saints Building, Krylla knocks Dragonfly back, before noticing Neon Crane, Power Surge and Neon-Ghost fighting Monster Braka. Eventually, during the fight, Krylla interferes as Monster Braka incapacitates Neon-Ghost, while Power Surge and Neon Crane fight Krylla, but her telepathy and tentacles prove too much for the two Enhumans as she wraps a tentacle around Neon Crane's neck and lifts her into the air, before restraining Power Surge to the ground.
Krylla: So, who do I kill first?
Woman-Warrior attempts to sneak up on Krylla, but her tentacles overpower and restrain her as well.
Krylla: For a human, you're not that smart to side with the Enhumans.
Krylla seethes at Woman-Warrior, Power Surge and Neon Crane, but then her expression changes when she uses telepathy to hear a tiny heartbeat coming from Neon Crane's lower stomach. Krylla then walks towards Neon Crane.
Power Surge: Hey! Get away from her!
Krylla then puts her ear to Neon Crane's stomach, then looks up.
Krylla: Oh, my....Oh, my....two heartbeats.....yours....
Krylla turns to Power Surge.
Krylla: And his seed.....
Power Surge's eyes widen, realizing what Krylla is saying.
Woman-Warrior: No....
Krylla then smiles.
Krylla: Well, we are in a pickle, aren't we?
Krylla then begins strangling Neon Crane.
Woman-Warrior: No, Trisha!
Power Surge: No! No! Please! Stop! Stop! Don't!
Krylla: Tell me where my Aquila crystals are! Or she and your unborn child die!
Neon Crane: (straining) No....
Krylla sharpens her tentacles, preparing to impale Neon Crane. Power Surge, knowing he can't, but realizing that Neon Crane is pregnant with his child, shakes his head, raises his hand.
Power Surge: Okay! Okay! I'll tell you!
Krylla: Tell me!
Power Surge looks at Neon Crane, then back at Krylla.
Power Surge: Ireland....The crystals are in Ireland.
Krylla smiles.
Krylla: Thank you....
Krylla then fatally stabs Woman-Warrior in the chest.
Neon Crane: No!
Power Surge: Maria!
Krylla tosses the wounded Woman Warrior, before she tosses Power Surge and Neon Crane over the balcony. Outside the building, Charles continues fighting Monster Prague in midair while in the streets of London, Quantum fights Monster Bruko while Neon Ghost fights Monster Blaka and Sun Sorceress fights Monster Nawk. Charles is thrown into the street by Monster Prague and eventually, Monster Prague, Monster Blaka, Monster Bruko and Monster Blaka surround Quantum, Sun Sorceress, Charles and Neon Ghost.
Neon Ghost: Anyone got any plans?
Sun Sorceress: We're alright. It's even. Four on four.
Suddenly, the Purifiers appear and confront the heroes.
Neon Ghost: You were saying?
Before the Purifiers and Monster Threll can engage the team, Dragonfly and appear, joining the Supers. Quantum and Genesis make eye contact.
Quantum: This doesn't have to end in a fight, Adrian.
Genesis: It always ends a fight, John.
Dragonfly turns to Quantum.
Dragonfly: Yeah, that was pretty lame, Dad.
After a tense stare down, the Supers and Purifiers charge at each other, engaging in a brutal fight. The fight last a good while, until Krylla enters the battlefield, using her telepathy to grab the Supers individually and throw them into each other or a separate building. After their defeat, Genesis turns to Krylla.
Genesis: What'd you do that for?
Krylla: We don't have time for squaralls....I have found the location of the crystals.
Genesis turns to the recovering Quantum, then turns to the rest of the Purifiers.
Genesis: Let's go, everyone. The time to Enhumans awaits us.
Krylla, the Purifiers and Monster Thrells leave the battle. The Supers and Caspian recover and regroup.
Caspian: Well, that could've gone so much better.....
Dragonfly: No shit....
Sun Sorceress: But why did they leave?
Quantum: They're going after the crystals...
Dragonfly: V.O.X.?
V.O.X.: Tracking the Purifiers right now....
Quantum speaks into his earpiece.
Quantum: Alex, be ready. The Purifiers and Thrells are on their way to you. Get prepared.
Thermo: You got it.
Dragonfly turns to Charles.
Dragonfly: Charles, you okay?
Charles: I am. Thank you for coming on such short notice.
Quantum: Charles, you didn't tell them where the crystals are, right?
Charles: I didn't....They did all they did, but I didn't give in.
Caspian: Well, then how the hell would they know where to go the-
Neon Crane: Help! I need help!
Quantum, Dragonfly, Caspian, Sun Sorceress, Neon-Ghost and Charles turn to notice Power Surge and Neon Crane carrying the fatally wounded Woman-Warrior.
Sun Sorceress: Oh, god. Maria!
Quantum flies over and grabs Woman-Warrior.
Quantum: Here, here! Set her down! Set her down!
Quantum sets Woman-Warrior against the floor as the team surrounds her.
Charles: Let me see her!
Neon Crane: Hold on, Maria! Just hold on, okay?! You're going to be okay!
Power Surge: Shit!
Woman-Warrior breathes frantically as Charles checks her wound.
Charles: Damn it! Her wound...it's...it's....
Neon Crane: What can we do?! We can do something! Can't we?!
Woman-Warrior coughs up blood, taking Neon Crane's hand. Neon Crane looks down, tears streaming from her eyes.
Woman-Warrior: Trisha...Trisha.....
Neon Crane: It's okay, Maria. I'm here. I'm here.
Woman-Warrior: Don't....Don't take the cure....
Neon Crane: What?
Woman-Warrior: Don't...stay who you are.....stay who you are....You're gonna be a good mom....I...
Woman-Warrior finally stops breathing and dies. The team give each other looks as Sun Sorceress gasps. Neon-Ghost gives a saddened look.
Neon Crane: Maria?
Power Surge sighs then closes his eyes.
Neon Crane: No...No, please! No! Maria! NO! NO!
Neon Crane cries in anguish as Power Surge comforts her. Neon Crane cradles her sisters' dead body in her arms.
Neon Crane: Please, Maria! Don't leave me, sis! Please!
Power Surge continues to comfort Neon Crane, before Quantum finally speaks.
Quantum: Team...I'm sorry, but....but we still have to go stop Krylla and the Purifiers.
Neon Ghost: For Christs sakes, John! Give Trisha a minute! It's her goddamn sister!
Quantum: If we don't stop them, then....then Maria would've died in vain.
Neon Crane wipes her tears.
Neon Crane: He's right....we have to stop her.
Neon Crane sets Woman-Warrior's body down, before she stands up with vengeful look.
Neon Crane: Let's go get those bastards....but we bring my sister with us.
Power Surge nods his head in agreement, before he carries Woman-Warrior's body. The rest of the Supers follow as the Eagle descends.
