"Pick up...Dev...are they okay? What do you mean gone? Her...why would she do that, we had all agreed...I didn't do anything to her or her...We goin...I am coming too, I don;t care aabout what she has done in the past...Just the two of us then? Who else? Okay."
Everyone looked at him with really puzzled faces.
"Private matter that me and Dev have to take care of after this mess is over...providing we live through this. He's on his way back."

"I'm gone. Still meet at the rendevous point? Or has it been comprimised?" Furball asks as he tears out of the Rookery.

Red Arrow is unaware about the Red Bee, but she has harsh thoughts about people with insect powers. Just use acids or explosives and be done with it, the girl thought as the information began pouring in.

<call goes out to Rocky, Ex, PB, QK, Space Ranger>
It's the Red Bee! Our worst fears are realized. This changes everything--we need to work with Lardy and the LMB leadership if they can be found to end this threat.
I think you'll find we have bigger problems. I'm going to be joining in the fight.
Stay safe. Cobie out.

Knight, thy repentance has been noted. Go, therefore, in the Path thou hast heretofore trod and do not stumble.

I am going to find Red Bee and end this now. My powers should protect me from his, at the very least they should cancel eachother out. Red Arrow, if anything happens you can have my dossier files. Your Highness, I presume you have tracking and transportation devices?
Red Arrow adds, "We sealed off Legionworld earlier, so this can't spread elsewhere. But that also means whatever help and weapons we have is all we have. What weapons, machines,etc. do we have?"

Tracking and transportation devices? <He touches his LMB flight ring>. I have a few Nth metal belts in the closet there if you need one. I don't really keep much of that stuff here. Otherwise, follow Power Boy (but through the door, please). Now, if you'll excuse me. <Rocky exits, through the front door, following Power Boy.>

<He moved over to sit on the side of the bed, and upended the content's of Nyebif's bag. Papers spilled out across the bed.>
<Where was it? Finance records... no... organizational charts... no... info on tax shelters... no. Damn it, where was it?>
<Wait... bingo!>
<Ex pulled a sheath of papers from the pile and looked at the title with a mix of sad disbelief and resignation. It had been nearly 20 years since he had seen the words that were emblazened on the title page, and he had thought he had long put it behind him:>
Project Möbius
<How the hell did Nyebif get a hold of this and, more to the point... when? He looked at the side of the sheath... still sealed. Whatever was inside, Nyebif never got a chance to examine it. Thank God for small miracles. Ex tore open the cover and began to read:>
<Ex grew more maudlin. He had known some of these>
<He flipped through the pages, at first slowly, then quicker as each subsequent entry revealed more of the same:>
Subject C-Null - deceased 2974 <flip>
Subject D-Five - deceased 2980 <flip>
Subject F-Twenty Seven - deceased 2991 <flip>
Subject M-Six - deceased 3004... <flip>
<They're all gone, Ex thought with the briefest flash of regret. But why does this document even still exist? The very architect of Project Möbius was himself 20 years dead. Who had compiled this?>
<Dont look, Ex told himself... don't do it.>
<Of course you'll look. He flipped forward:>
Subject X-Null - status unknown
<Ex's lips pursed tightly. Someone knows.>
<He quickly scanned throught the remainder of the list. All deceased. The loop was almost closed. He tossed the list into the fireplace and watched it burn.>
Well... I knew it had to happen sooner or later, but I was really hoping for a little more time. There's nothing to be done now, but soon as this terrorist crisis on Legion World is concluded, it's time to pay a long overdue visit to my "dear old dad".
<Exnihil's omni-com goes off; it's Cobalt Kid>
Ex, I know you're more of a private citizen but considering all we've gone through recently, I thought you might have a stake in things.
I firmly believe you're in danger and the recent attack on the casino was payback to Gruertis Nyebif. The Red Bee is crazy but he's deliberate. So you should first be among LMBers for safety.
Also, perhaps the recent pre-cog abilities you've shown could come in handy? If there was a way you could control them...?
See if some of the more powerful guys can give you a ride to meet me in downtown. Better your with us at the center of this madness...

Red Arrow ran off to follow him. Better stick with someone with the same power levels. For once I don't have an ultimate strategy. But I have enough super-villains in my family tree to know this is a tantrum. Nothing is gained from all this destruction except pure fear. If the Red Bee really wanted us all dead, he could have done it by now. Besides, the man couldn't pull off the color scheme to save his life.
