Pro Heroes

HDMI meeting

Back at the office, Tacoman is trying to make small talk and he segway's to his conspiracy on hero gear. Everyone that is a part of Tacoman's team is facepalming, dying of embarrassment.

Ronnie shows up carrying the box of files. "Sorry I'm late. There was some girl with a scorpion tail. She was pretty tu. . . . Well, not pretty, but she was attractive. I mean, she got away, and I left a paralysed man in the middle of the road."

"What!!!" Everyone shouted.

"I don't know. I'm so confused." Ronnie put his head down on the desk.

"Ok, now you have your files, let's go over the evidence so we can come up with a plan." HDMI stretched out a cable and plugged into a computer. A projector turned on. "So we know he has a serum that amplifies your abilities and makes you a mindless monster. Now, you all have seen these monsters up close. You even stopped a few of these monsters. But one thing that is still a mystery, what do we know about the boss? Has anyone seen his ability?"

"No, we haven't seen it, but we do know he is hotheaded and intimidating. We saw him do drugs, if he is high that will make him unpredictable." Tacoman walked around the table and waved a picture of the boss around. Tacoman pulled out a hammer and nailed it to the wall.

"What the hell are you doing? We already had his picture on the projector." Cagematch stood up and clenched his fist. "You can't just come into someone else's agency and start nailing things to the wall."

"Look, you agreed to help us with our investigation and we do things with more class than these fancy projectors and holograms." Tacoman said, looking proud, as water began to leak from the picture he nailed to the wall. "This place isn't haunted by any chance, is it?" Tacoman looked at the wall as it started to creek and spew water out of the picture.

"You are working with us. We have been on this case for months." HDMI looked at the projector and accessed the building's water and turned it off. "Now if we can get back to work."

"Yea, like we were saying." Tacoman picked up the picture off the floor and whipped the water off of it and nailed it back to the wall, right beside the hole in the wall. "So we don't know the boss's abilities. But we do know his strongest fighter is the champ. He is a fire based fighter. He can propel himself through the air with the fire and we all have a score to settle with him for killing Blackmist. We also know one of his men can make balls and throw them. They glow from white to yellow, orange then to red, then they explode. He was the only one to get away from the shipping yard. Here is the manifest from it telling where the supplies came from and where they were going."

"Don't forget there is a villain called metal arms that I fought in the fight club." Andrew said.

"But he could have just been there for money like me, not necessarily working for the boss." Jose said.

"That is true, but we still need to keep him in mind. We don't know what the boss's power is and we don't know his current location. We need to make a design about where we want to take the fight. There are two locations on the shipping manifest. Where they manufacture the drug and where the drug was going. We can hit the source or go for the boss." HDMI pulled up a map on the projector and put markers on the two addresses.

Tacoman pulls out a map of the city and unfolds it out on the table, struggling to lay it flat.

"We should go for the source. Presumably it takes large machines to make a drug with this potency. So the machines will be hard to move. That means we don't need to worry about them moving after every time they make a batch. Judging by the shipping manifest, we know what the shipment was going and where it came from." HDMI said.

Tacoman interrupts. "We were the ones that found the shipping manifest."

"We don't know if the boss is at the location or if it was a drop, then they could move the supplies to the real location. Do we have confirmation that the boss is at the location on the, what do you call it, a manifest?" Catori said, looking toward HDMI, not paying Tacoman any attention.

"We have to keep an eye on the cameras so we can confirm the location of the boss and champ. We need to keep watch that way we know for sure he is there so we don't miss our chance." HDMI pulled up surveillance video of the building's at the locations on the map.

"We should go for the boss, cut the head off the snake." Andrew stood up.

"Or we could cut off the supply line to the whole operation that way know one can take over." Sophie took Andrew's hand and pulled him back down to his set.

"Come on, we can get the boss and take him down for all he has done." Andrew looked at Sophie, then tended his head toward the rest. "For what he did to all of us, to everyone in the city, all those that were affected by the monsters and those killed by his men. The mental state that we all have dealt with after the horror he unleashed on the city."

"Couldn't we spit up and attack both? We have plenty of heroes. We can split up. After all, we did stop a lot of his men at the shipping yard." Jose said, leaning back in his chair.

"Solefire did help. We would have been killed if he didn't show up." Ronnie said.

"Don't tell them Solefire helped!" Steven whispered loudly toward them, putting his hand up to hide his mouth from Catori and Bron.

"We don't care about the past as long as you work with us and pull your weight." Catori said.

"All I was saying is we dwindled their numbers that day." Jose said.

"Yea, but you need to think how many men do they have at their disposal. If they had a lot of people guarding one truck, I wonder what they will have at their main base. We should wait until we have confirmation about the boss's location and then we will make a decision and we will see how many men they have working for them." HDMI said.

"couldn't Jose go undercover, he was a part of thar goop after all?" Steven said.

"No, because he helped at the shipping yard so they know he is working with us." Sophie said

"Well no one escaped, well except the ball guy did but he didn't see him and the security footage was deleted by HDMI so they may not know." Tacoman said.

"Jose found out the location for the shipping yard, wouldn't they know from that?" Andrew said.

"Well they won't be talking about me after what I did to them. Also the boss doesn't let you disappear like I did without consequences so it really is not an option for me to go back." Jose said.
