STRIKE #5

*OBSIDIAN wakes up, tied to a chair, in what looks to be a bunker of some kind.*

OBSIDIAN: Hm?

What the-?

Oh shit!

*TOMMY turns the chair OBSIDIAN is tied to face him.*

TOMMY: Good morn’n.

OBSIDIAN: Tommy. Why am I here?

TOMMY: Boss wanted ya.

But you did break the code so the three of us got free rein over ya until the boss gets here.

OBSIDIAN: Who’s your new boss?

TOMMY: No offense but I don’t think yer in the right position ter be ask’n any questions.

*TOMMY gestures to JAY and JACK behind OBSIDIAN with a baseball bat and a crowbar, TOMMY pulls out a pocket knife and cuts the side of OBSIDIANs face.*

TOMMY: Now let's make that lovely costume of yers match yer nice red hair.

*Panel shows “off screen” screams as TOMMY, JAY and JACK torture OBSIDIAN.*

OBSIDIAN: Aaaahhhhh!!!

MEANWHILE

*THE ACTOR, CREAMPUFF, BLURRY FACE and SPECTRE group up back at the HQ. THE ACTOR paces the room in anxious thought, BLURRY FACE and SPECTRE sit at the table CREAMPUFF is sitting on.*

CREAMPUFF: I’m sure they’re fine.

They could have just run away to avoid that whole broken code punishment thing.

Or maybe there wasn’t really one anyway.

THE ACTOR: No, there is a code. Both Obsidian and that goon brought it up.

*THE ACTOR puts a hand to their head.*

THE ACTOR: Oh gods, this was a bad idea.

Blurry Face, do you know anything about this code?

BLURRY FACE: Oh yeah! Not good.

THE ACTOR: *Sarcastically* Very helpful.

BLURRY FACE: Eh, sorry.

The code that they were referring to is probably the Vapira code.

SPECTRE: Vapira?

BLURRY FACE: Yes.

Vapira was a member of nobility in the 1400s before falling into a forbidden love with a knight from another kingdom.

CREAMPUFF: Romantic, but not helpful.

BLURRY FACE: Just listen.

Vapira and the knight were both banished from Vapira’s home kingdom and the village people were sent to hunt the two of them like animals on order of the king and queen as a punishment for treason. 

THE ACTOR: Well that’s brutal.

BLURRY FACE: The villagers caught the knight and, legend says they burnt them alive outside the kingdom walls so Vapira had view of the sight.

SPECTRE: I think I’ve heard this story before…

I’ve read theories that Vapira went to a witch after the knights execution to bring her true love back to the land of the living.

BLURRY FACE: Those theories are just tall tales, lies to tell at a campfire to scare your friends. 

CREAMPUFF: And how does this relate to the code exactly?

*BLURRY FACE looks CREAMPUFF dead in the eyes.*

BLURRY FACE: If someone breaks the Vapira code by either quitting before their contract allows or working with the enemies side…

…Then its considered an act of treason against the cities criminal underground.

They will send out any villains, goons or henchmen to have full rein over what to do the the code breaker.

This can be torture, perminant injury or sometimes even…

…Death.

THE ACTOR: Oh Gods…

We need to get Obsidian out of there now.

BLURRY FACE: Out of where exactly? We still have no clue where they could have gone.

SPECTRE: And, um, I checked all security cameras around The Tipsy Possum…

…Whoever took Obsidian must have avoided the cameras…

CREAMPUFF: So what your saying is we have no lead.

*All of a sudden TELEPORTER comes running through the HQs front door not noticing the heroes inside. TELEPORTER looks like they are trying to hide from someone.*

BLURRY FACE: Woah…

SPECTRE: Um…

Hi there.

*TELEPORTER turns around slowly.*

TELEPORTER: Sorry I didn’t know anyone was in here…

Ah! Heroes! Oh, maybe you can help me!

CREAMPUFF: *Under her breath* Why’d it have to be him…?

*THE ACTOR gives CREAMPUFF a nudge to stop talking.*

THE ACTOR: What is it you need help with?

TELEPORTER: I saw something I shouldn’t have and now a bunch of bad guys are trying to kidnap me!

THE ACTOR: Ok, ok. I’m going to need you to calm down, alright.

What was it that you saw?

TELEPORTER: I think I witnessed a kidnapping.

*The team of heroes a give each other a look.*

THE ACTOR: Can you tell me what the person being kidnapped looked like?

TELEPORTER: Yes! It was Obsidian, the villain. I recognized them from their hair it’s kind of hard to miss.

*BLURRY FACE looks at CREAMPUFF.*

BLURRY FACE: There’s our lead.

CREAMPUFF: Perfect timing.

THE ACTOR: I’m going to need you to tell me everything you know.

LATER:

*OBSIDIAN is left bruised and bloody, very limb, as a knock is heard on the door of the observatory. TOMMY, JAY and JACK answer the door and a figure in a black hooded cloak walks in, the three goons bow. The HOODED FIGURE points to OBSIDIAN and speaks in monotone.*

HOODED FIGURE: Is that them?

TOMMY: Yes, it-it-it-it is er uh sir.

*The HOODED FIGURE walks past the goons and towards OBSIDIAN.*

JACK: Will the be here, or is it just you?

*The HOODED FIGURE turns back to JACK.*

JACK: Sir, sir?

HOODED FIGURE: No. 

The Greater Being will not be joining us this evening. I have been sent alone to retrieve the…

*The HOODED FIGURE pauses and stares at OBSIDIAN silently for a long moment.*

TOMMY: Uh, sir?

Sir? You alright?

*The HOODED FIGURE snaps out of his daze.*

HOODED FIGURE: The captive. 

To retrieve the captive.

TOMMY: Er, yes, uh ok, sir.

I’ll send me boys, Jay and Jack to get the-the ropes…

…You you want us to er, knock em out too, sir?

HOODED FIGURE: No.

I want them to walk themselves to the van.

Untie them.

*All, including OBSIDIAN, look to the HOODED FIGURE in surprise and confusion.*

HOODED FIGURE: That was an order.

TOMMY: Uh, er, right, sir.

*TOMMY gestures to JAY and JACK to untie OBSIDIAN and they do. Once untied, OBSIDIAN throws a weak punch at the HOODED FIGURE who catches their fist and kicks them in the gut.*

OBSIDIAN: Ga- er…

HOODED FIGURE: Start walking.

MEANWHILE

*The team follow TELEPORTER through the back alleys of the old part of town.*

TELEPORTER: I saw them go in there.

*TELEPORTER points to the old observatory.*

THE ACTOR: The observatory…

CREAMPUFF: You look like you know this place.

THE ACTOR: I do, this was Obsidian’s old hideout.

BLURRY FACE: Hey guys, I think its no or never.

*BLURRY FACE points to the van driving away from the observatory.*

THE ACTOR: Let’s move.

STRIKE Issue #1

*Panel shows a riot of civilians in front of the city hall. SPECTRE is not yet a hero.*

SPECTRE: Please everyone!

Calm down please!

CIVILIAN ONE: We don't want to be saved by your vigilantes!

CIVILIAN TWO: Are we training our children to send them to their deaths and call them heroes?! That's just wrong!

SPECTRE: Please calm down!

Our cities heroes are only trying to help you!

CIVILIAN THREE: We don't want their help!

CIVILIAN FOUR: They're just freaks the government's using as soldiers!

*OBSIDIAN makes their way through the crowd and to a place everyone can see them.*

OBSIDIAN: Good evening, ladies and gentlemen!

CIVILIAN TWO: Oh dear god!

CIVILIAN FOUR: A villain!

OBSIDIAN: Now I would recommend that you all skedaddle. I have some business I need to attend to.

*The crowd all fearfully run away.*

Now we wait for The Actor.

MEANWHILE

*CREAMPUFF, who is not yet CREAMPUFF is heading towards her dance class when she sees THE ACTOR in civvies being suspiciously in a rush.*

CREAMPUFF: Hey Mars!

Where are you off too...?

*THE ACTOR doesn't notice CREAMPUFF and keeps running, CREAMPUFF, suspicious, follows unseen. THE ACTOR runs to the city hall and changes into their uniform before entering.*

THE ACTOR: Obsidian.

OBSIDIAN: Ah, you made it, hero!

I was starting to think you wouldn't show up.

THE ACTOR: Well of course I would show up.

I'm the one who needed to talk to you.

See STRIKE #0

OBSIDIAN: Oh yes, I remember.

Now, what was it that you wanted to discuss?

*CREAMPUFF catches up to THE ACTOR and hides behind a door and watches everything.*

CREAMPUFF: *Whispering, to self* Wait...

Thats The Actor and...

...Obsidian?

Where did Mars go?

THE ACTOR: You'll actually be surprised.

OBSIDIAN: Oh?

THE ACTOR: I want to recruit you. To reform you.

OBSIDIAN: Recruit me? Reform me?

THE ACTOR: Yes.

OBSIDIAN: Now, why would you even want to do that? Hm? Do you think I can really be trusted?

Hero, I'm the bad guy, in case you forgot.

THE ACTOR: Listen, Guy has gone missing.

I didn't have much connection with him after his retirement but I know he wasn't the most social person.

During his hero days you were who we fought against the most.

I don't know...

...I thought you would know something about him or where he might go after studying him for so long.

*Panel shows shock on both OBSIDIAN and CREAMPUFFs faces.*

OBSIDIAN: My...

CREAMPUFF: *Whispering, to self* Guy...is...gone...?

OBSIDIAN: Well...

...That is certainly some interesting news.

THE ACTOR: So...

...What do ya say?

OBSIDIAN: I don't think the public will be very happy if I were to play hero.

THE ACTOR: If you help me with a missing persons case as big as this I'll see what i can do about getting you pardoned.

OBSIDIAN: I doubt you'll do that.

You don't even trust me, do you?

THE ACTOR: I do trust you.

OBSIDIAN: Then prove it.

THE ACTOR: How about I make you a deal?

If you join me, I'll tell you who's behind the mask.

*OBSIDIAN smiles.*

OBSIDIAN: Alright, hero.

You've got yourself a deal.

*THE ACTOR and OBSIDIAN shake hands to seal the deal.*

OBSIDIAN: So now tell me, who are you?

*THE ACTOR slowly takes off their mask*

CREAMPUFF: *Gasp. Whispering, to self.* Oh my god...

The Actor is...

THE ACTOR: My name is...

CREAMPUFF AND THE ACTOR: Mars!

*CREAMPUFF was a little to loud and was heard by THE ACTOR catching their attention. THE ACTOR suddenly looks toward the door, CREAMPUFF covers her mouth in fear.*

THE ACTOR: I'm sorry, I thought I heard something.

OBSIDIAN: *In awe* ...Your beautiful.

THE ACTOR: Hm?

*THE ACTOR quickly turns back to face OBSIDIAN who is slowly reaching their arm towards THE ACTOR who takes a large step back.*

OBSIDIAN: I thought you trusted me.

*THE ACTOR leans forwards to show trust and OBSIDIAN tucks a few strands of hair behind THE ACTORs ears, holding their face.*

OBSIDIAN: Heh, I didn't know you had freckles...

...They're cute.

*THE ACTOR smiles. OBSIDIAN takes off their own mask and leans in for a kiss. THE ACTOR pulls away.*

THE ACTOR: Well, um uh. Good to know your on the team...

...I've got a uh, few more people to talk to so um I'll stay in touch...

*THE ACTOR puts both of their masks back on to hide the fact that they are currently a blushing mess as they head toward to window and pull out a grappling hook.*

OBSIDIAN: But...

THE ACTOR: Good bye!

*THE ACTOR grapples away. OBSIDIAN throws their mask down and sit on the windowsill.*

OBSIDIAN: Stupid!

Ugh! what is wrong with you that was a stupid move!

*CREAMPUFF looks back at her dance bag and thinks hard while staring at a dark blue crop top with a heart logo.*

LATER

*Panels show THE ACTOR arrive at a cabin house on the outskirts of town and an apartment door, both residents answer.*

THE ACTOR: Hello...

...V.

...Bug.

I am putting together a team to search for a missing persons and I am well aware of your abilities.

BLURRY FACE: My abilities? I-I don't know what your talking about...

...You must have the wrong person.

SPECTRE: Missing? Who's gone missing?

THE ACTOR: V, I am well aware that you have been following Guy and I for the past few years.

I know very well about the powers of your incense and crystals as well.

Guy has gone missing, I need your expertise to help find him.

SPECTRE: I'm not so sure if I'm the right person for this, don't get me wrong I would love to help but...

There is nothing special about me.

BLURRY FACE: And all this time I thought I was being sneaky.

Ok, I'll help!

THE ACTOR: Nonsense. I've heard about how you can calm a crowd and that you are incredibly handy with a computer.

We could use a tech expert on our team.

SPECTRE: Wow, thats really an honor...

...I would love to join you! Thank you so much for this opportunity!

THE ACTOR: Perfect!

*THE ACTOR hands them both a card.*

THE ACTOR: Meet me at this address on saturday next week at exactly 4:45.

Don't be late.

BLURRY FACE: Will do!

SPECTRE: Thank you! I'll be there!

LATER

*OBSIDIAN is stopped in an alleyway by CREAMPUFF in a makeshift uniform made from her dance clothes.*

OBSIDIAN: And who might you be?

CREAMPUFF: I'm no one.

But...

*CREAMPUFF threatenly leans in toward OBSIDIAN.*

CREAMPUFF: If you dare hurt Mars.

I'll kill you.

*OBSIDIAN nonchalantly pushes CREAMPUFF back with one hand.*

OBSIDIAN: Calm down, creampuff.

You got nothing to worry about.

*OBSIDIAN walks away.*

CREAMPUFF: Sure.

But I'll be watching.

Dreams show me the vilest concepts. This was few nights ago, and I can't stop thinking about it
