Naecken, Mick Harrison, Shirley Francis, and Sam "Shift" Dawson were still waiting for their friends to come back.
Suddenly, a greenish bright light appeared three feet above ground. Naecken recognized his friends falling out of the warp onto the muddy ground, so he ran to greet them. Each of his missing friends were there: Danny Hearn, Tobias Christopher, Marv Velo, Lance Lorenzo, Pete Glover, and Sonja Ljzavek.
Suddenly, spotlights were activated, and a loud electronic voice said, "We know that a group of metahumans are hiding in this camp. Give up or face charges and possibly a death sentence! You will come out with your hands behind your backs... slowly!"
"Shit!" muttered Sonja.
"You'd better get into the van!" yelled Naecken.
And they all squeezed into the hidden van, except for Naecken, who slowly rolled it silently down the hill through the forest. Once clear, they switched on the engine and drove at the highest possible speed away from there.
Alas, a soldier saw them and alerted command. So the chase was on. A few armored transports and two armed jeeps chased them through the roads of Mandelovia.
They knew that every police and goverment official would be on the lookout for them, as Naecken relayed the past few days' events concerning their duplicates' rampage across the country. But they had to get out somehow, without being seen, and without leaving a trail for anyone to follow.
This would be difficult.
