Out of a Frying Pan

by Jerry J. Vahn

Because I was contemplating life, the universe and just about anything else, I missed helping another group of resistance fighters get away from NAGA.
 
The team helped save several resistance fighters get away from another group of NAGA.
 
I finally realized that I'm in it for the long term, and I have to do whatever it takes to help get rid of Destroyer, well almost anything. I don't think that I can become a cold-blooded killer. I'm not sure that I can kill. I believe that killing is wrong.
 
What Destroyer and his followers are doing is wrong also, but two wrongs don't make something 'right'.
 
XO seemed to step through some sort of portal and arrived at a major NAGA base. He was able to surprise them enough and take them out, so it was decided that we should try to put a DarKr web devise on the base so that maybe we can intercept NAGA communications.
 
We arrive on the scene, and Wildthing takes the device to the top of one of the communication towers while the rest of us try to keep the agents busy.
 
Shortly after we arrive, a woman breaks out of a shipping container. So, now they are trapping metas to do who knows what. She hears others in some of the other containers, so they go around and start to set them free. I run around and take out a couple of the flying NAGA agents and on the way back around the back side of the building, I help tear open another container.
 
Just as we've gotten all of the 'guest' of the NAGA hotel out of their rooms, Gigaton arrives with some Destroids following behind him. Just great, Gigaton, one of the worst of the worst, and titularly the head of the United States under Destroyer. I guess if you are a good psychopath, you get to run a country.
 
We decide that the better part of Valor, is to beat feet with our newly liberated super friends, well, hopefully they will continue to fight against the current regime.
 
Just as we are leaving, five other 'supers' arrive, and start fighting Gigaton.
 
Ghost and I agree that we can't just let them take on Gigaton alone, but first we have to get these others that had been trapped out of here, and back to safety.
