Location: Memorial Park in Our Fair City
Shatterman and Red Hawk stood over the defeated Deathkite. They surveyed the park to make sure the rest of B.A.D. had escaped. Shatterman pointed to the trucks which were pulling into the park’s parking lot. One was an armored truck the rest were not. All appeared to have high tech communication equipment attached. “That would be CHESS arriving to secure the area. Those are Rook agents. It won’t be long before 3 to 4 Knights and a Bishop arrive.”
Shatterman waved to get the attention of the arriving Rooks. He showed them the unconscious Deathkite and pointed to the location of the bomb. Two Rooks picked up Deathkite securing him in handcuffs and ankle cuffs. They carried him to the armored van.
A group of 5 Rooks went to the statue with the bomb. They quickly and silently removed from the statue. It was loaded into a different van.
A strange sound was heard overhead. Red Hawk saw for the first time up close the CHESS Skycycles. Three were being flow by armor wearing CHESS Agents. Shatterman informed Chris those were the Knights. The other Agent was wearing a suit. Only the Bishop landed while the Knights circled the park from the air.
The Bishop introduced himself. His codename is Prince.
Bishop Prince, Shatterman, and Red Hawk walked toward the entrance of the park as they explained to the CHESS agent the details of the bomb threat and the ambush.
"Den ... er ... Shatterman, I think I hit one of these officers trying to take the woman with the gun down." Running over to the police he tried to see if there is anything he could do to help. "What happened? What was all this about? I don't understand why they did this? It's just a park." Chris rambled a bit nervously. "I'm going to beat the asphalt from that little dark dwarf next time I see him." Suddenly realizing Brian was nowhere in sight, "Shatterman, where is Condor?"
Shatterman looked around in a panic then flew off in the direction of the lake. Before Red Hawk could follow Bishop Prince placed his hand on this shoulder to stop him. “Sorry, I have a few more questions for you. I will have the Knights and Rooks help Shatterman find Condor.”
<reply?>
As Prince spoke on this comm. unit giving instruction Red Hawk understood the reason the CHESS Bishop had stopped him. Several policemen were looking on him with hostility. Officer Kyle Worth started screaming for Red Hawk to be arrested for assaulting a police officer. Officer Henry Riley stepped between Kyle and Chris. He gently guided Officer Worth a few steps away from the situation. He explained that it is a CHESS affair. He can file the complaint for being assaulted but the MPD cannot make the arrest. After he calmed down, he indicated he did want to press charges.
Bishop Prince let out a heavy sigh. “Okay, let’s get the facts straight. First Red Hawk helped with getting the civilians out of danger from the bomb?” Officer Riley agreed. It was he that had been with Red Hawk at the locked gate. “But the gate wasn’t really locked. It was an illusion.”
“But later a woman came running up to Officer Worth claiming Red Hawk was chasing her trying to hurt her?” Officer Worth nodded in agreement. The Bishop turned to Red Hawk, “Is that true were you after her?”
<reply?>
“Red Hawk were you trying to hit the woman in question when you hit Officer Worth? If he was nearby why did you fire?”
Prince looked to Officer Riley. “Did you believe what she said? That Red Hawk was attacking civilians?”
Officer Riley mumbled. “Well, yes. She was very persuasive”
Prince looked at everyone in turn? “Anything else you can tell me about her?”
<reply?>
Shatterman and the Knights at this point returned with Condor. He was found unconscious near the lake. It appeared he had been in it when the explosion had occurred.
Prince spoke to the Officers.”Thank you very much gentlemen. Officer Worth if you want to file the complaint please come down to CHESS HQ when you are able.”
The Bishop instructed the Rooks to take Condor to the third van. He would be provided medical attention. “Red Hawk you are not under arrest. This is a procedural matter will have to follow but it will be more like an inquiry against your DSA Superhero License as oppose to arresting a criminal for assaulting a police officer. I do need you and Shatterman to come to CHESS HQ with me.
“I have the remains of this bomb. There remains of a different bomb that was set off in Center City. DeathKite will need interviewing. Finally there is a case file on B.A.D you can have access to if you’re interested”.
“I will bring Condor in the van so the CHESS doctors can fix him up.”
“Will you come?”

Holy Cow
Good Issues. More going on than I can easily keep up with all things considered. I'll have to work on improving Red Hawk's fighting techniques. :)
Quick question to start the next issue. Did Red Hawk see Condor dive into the lake while they were flying around? If so he'll immediately dive into the lake thinking Condor might be unconscious. If he didn't see him then dialog with Shatterman will be the starting point ... and apparently an aiding and apologizing to the police while trying to get those who need it medical assistance.
Thanks Tom

GM: I did a quick detect hidden roll on whether Red Hawk saw Condor dive into the lake. Det Hidden is 48% and roll was 57% so No, Red Hawk did not see where Condor had gone. I rolled Shatterman as well. He did not see Condor either.
So both do not know that Condor dived into the lake.
Regards
Tom
