Hardy New-Born laid in his cell, guards about to arrive any second. He started playing with his communicator, trying to get it to work. After a while, he finally picked up Disco Stave's signal.
Hardy New-Born: "Disco, where are you? Why didn't you answer my signal before?"
Disco Stave: "I was covered in Seamen."
Hardy New-Born: "...What?"
Disco Stave: "I was covered head to toe with evil Seamen! But I'm all right, now."
Hardy New-Born: "Get the others, come to the MBL Headquarters, and try to get in without anyone noticing, but don't rescue me, yet. I want to try and find out what Forrest is up to."
Disco Stave: "Aye-aye, Cap'n. Over and out."
Hardy New-Born disconnected from Disco just as guards piled into his cell.
Guard 1: "All right, the boss wants to know how those others got out, and you're gonna tell him, ya got it?"
Hardy New-Born just swore at the man. The guards piled on top of him and began to kick the shit out of him, then dragged him to General Gerald Forrest. The Rhymer was too weak from attacking the energy beams to fight back.
"What will Gerald do to HNB?
We'll just have to wait and see."
In pain, beaten, battered, and bloody, Hardy New-Born was held down in front of Forrest. Blood dripped out of the Rhymer's mouth, as Forrest walked toward him. Forrest lifted his arm in the air and punched Hardy New-Born across the face. Forrest looked into the MBL leader's eyes, and neither said a thing. They both just tried to stare each other down.
Finally, Forrest said, "Your time has ended. The MBL will be destroyed. This time I don't need an IBG to defeat you, or money, like last time. I have one idea that I bet you wish you had right about now..."
Before Forrest finished what he was saying, alarms flashed all around them, and a loud crash sent TriVext armored guards right through the wall, and they landed in front of Forrest.
Forrest: "What is this?"
Out walked from the destroyed wall Smasher, in a black costume with a silver stripe across the chest. "This is the MBL Headquarters. Everyone in here will die!"
"What? Who the hell are you?" Before Forrest finished what he was saying, Smasher punched him with all of his might. Forrest was knocked into a steel wall, and steel bars fell from the damaged wall on top of him. The strike was so powerful that Rhymer was sure Forrest was dead.
Smasher: "Who wants to be next?"
Out of the rubble where Forrest had landed then came a bright red glow. The steel melted around the body of Forrest, who stood up and was now holding a red glowing stone.
Forrest: "As I was saying... I have found the Dragon's Stone... and with it, the power of a god..."
