Stacey was sat in a tall chair in front of a long table, next to her sat on either side sat Mist and Greena, their eyes were fixed on Ben who was standing in front of them all behind him stood Frostbite, behind them both was an overhead project, Stacey looked at Ben in shock and horror remembering how he had once looked, she then turned to Mist who was sitting next to her, “do you know why Ben has aged Laura?” She asked, trying to keep her voice as silent as she could, “I thought that Mega Humans didn’t age like that?” Greena who had been listening in on the conversation learned her head over she gave Stacey a puzzled look, “maybe it’s due to stress Stacey? That’s more than likely the reason why he has aged so much!” Stacey was about to say something back to friend where she heard Ben clearing his throat she turned her head and watched as he began pacing up and down finally he stopped and turned towards the table, “you may all be wondering why I have called this meeting?” He said as h

It was dark and quiet as both Ben and Stacey slept their arms wrapped around each other everything was quiet and at peace, everything apart from Stacey who was moaning and shivering in bed as she was having a nightmare, in her mind she saw herself running through a forest snow covering both the ground and tree tops as she ran she saw Ben dashing beside her, “wait Ben don’t go!” She yelled after him, as she raced after him she found herself in a clearing the forest was now long gone and all that remained was a frozen wilderness the only landmark was that of a large white walled coloured building with two large towers on either end, Stacey moved towards it neither showing fear or courage as she entered the building she was shocked at what she found broken and twisted bodies of both human and mega humans their faces were twisted in pain and fear, “my God what happened here?” She asked herself as she walked through the carriage disgusted by what she saw, as she moved closer inside the wal

Ben stood up pacing up and down in a dimly lit room a lit cigar was in his mouth standing in front of him was Frostbite who held James in a chair tied up, besides him was Stacey who looked at her father in disgust, “what’s going to happen now?” She asked Ben who turned to her, “are you going to kill him?” Ben didn’t say anything but it was Frostbite who spoke first, “he deserves to die after what he’s done! How do we know that he isn’t working with either the Outcast or this new enemy?!” His tone was harsh and cruel, Ben looked at him giving the other Mega Human a sour look, “we don’t Serigel!” He said in a voice that lacked any sort of emotion, “not yet anyway,” he turned his head towards Stacey, “Stacey you do know that I am going to have to probe his mind don’t you?” His voice was thin as if he was worn out, Stacey turned and nodded, “I know that you have to do this babe but will his mind be damaged?” Frostbite then spoke up, “does it matter?!” He yelled, “this bastard tried to kil

Night fell as Stacey and the other members of Sanctuary were teleported into Washington DC looking around Stacey was surprised by what she saw, Washington DC was nothing more than a ghost town and a warzone, buildings were ablaze with fire, streets were empty, roads and pavements were scarred with craters which looked like they had been hit by heavy bombardment from shells not a soul stirred. In the distance far off the domed Senate building could be seen near the building just a small distance away could be seen a row of lights, Stacey turned to Ben who was walking beside her, “what do you think those are babe?” She asked as she gripped a handgun that hung from a holster around her waist, “do you think that they are friends or foes?” Ben didn’t say anything at first he turned and looked towards the light scanning them with his mind, “well boss? Who are they?” Elemental asked impatiently, Ben turned his head toward the blue skinned Mega Human his face was grave, “they are the ones tha

It had been two days since Stacey and her companions had left Washington DC and it’s ruins behind, since that time Stacey hadn’t left Ben’s side due to both worry and loyalty on her part, it was the second night and she had prepared a meal for them both out of out of the ration kits that she had found in one of the lockers, she placed two trays on a makeshift table in front of them both and sat next to Ben as he ate. “Well?” She asked as she watched him cutting a small piece of food and biting into it, “how is it babe?” Ben looked up at her as he began chewing on a piece, “it’s not bad babe!” He said as held a glass of water and held it up to his mouth, “you seem preoccupied babe!” She asked as she watched him placing the glass down, “is there anything wrong?” He looked at her and smiled gently, “no, there is nothing wrong babe why should there be?” Stacey then put her head onto his chest, “before we left Washington DC you mentioned your brother I didn’t know that you had any family l
