The Cruising Crusader

The Cruising Crusader part 4

Thala Shock sprints all the way from the prison over to the Power Patrol headquarters she feels insanely tired naturally because she just ran over 10 miles from the prison near Powerland to the headquarters. Sandra Day, Bowregard and a fully healed Starwoman are there and they feel rather concerned that the rest of their team hasn't attended a meeting in a week. They are wondering where Suburban Amazon and the rest of the Power Patrol were this whole time. Thala finally walked inside of the headquarters and she tells the three heroes what happened even though she is out of breath.

Thala: "Guys... The other... Heroes... Are captured... In a slavery theme park."

Starwoman: "A slavery theme park? Oh hell no! This wealthy businessman is going down! I'm going to kill him!"

Bowregard: "Wait a second, how are we supposed to know that she's telling the truth?"

Bowregard pins Thala to the wall and points an arrow at her face "Now you better tell me the truth or this arrow will go right in your eye!"

Thala is terrified and she is so tired and so scared that she could only muster a small whimper.

Sandra: "Bowregard knock it off! Look at her she's going to go insane! It's clear that she had to run for miles on end to get here so I think if you just let her go and gave her a chance to rest she might be able to give us a clear explanation."

Bowregard agrees with her. After he lets Thala go and gives Thala an energy pill that was developed by Sandra to restore a person's energy quickly Thala is able to explain how Wallace placed the superheros in Powerland and how she is planning to infiltrate the park to save all of the superheros inside.

Thala: "So we need to sneak inside and plan a Rebellion in order to save the Power Patrol. Samantha probably knows the park inside and out so we will find her and get the Intel from her."

Starwoman: "I'll fly you over to the park gates and after that we will have to get to the cells without our powers. Those dampeners must be debilitating. I will kill Wallace when this is over though."

Thala: "That's unnecessary you can't just kill the guy! He might be following his mother's orders against his will!"

Starwoman: "If we don't kill him he will keep on commiting these atrocities."

Thala: "Lets just go to the park."

Meanwhile Ophelia is taking the Power Patrol to their cells

Ophelia: "Yes! Welcome home Slaves!"

Amazon: "Ophelia this is insane! You can't keep us here!"

Ophelia: "Well it seems to me that I can do what ever I want to slave. Hm slave what a joyous feeling that is just to say that word. It's like saying love or Huey P Newton."

Human Insect: "People don't actually live here do they?"

Ophelia: "People no. Wallace's slaves yes. It's not as bad as Birmingham in the 60s though. This is more like an NFL training camp. See those slaves over there?"

The heroes see a bunch of other superheros picking cotton.

Ophelia: "Oh look at their bodies growing in strength! This shall purify a Superhumans body and soul."

Human Insect: Well how can that be good for them?"

Ophelia: "Well the cotton is organic"

She-Beast catches a glimpse of other superheros being used as practice dummies for Wallaces mercenaries.

She-Beast: "What the?"

Ophelia: "Oh yes the sound of superheros yelling in pain is so satisfying after a good shot with a stun gun or electric baton!"
