The Nora’s Hunt

Prologue

It is another night in Bay City.

Around the midnight hour people of all ages go out to the nightclubs, the most famous place for it is of course in the Neon District. The district as always is lit up with the neon signs around on the buildings. The most famous sign is of the course the Big Dipper sign on top of the small building that houses the Dipper Pub. Patrons are attracted to the bright red leprechaun being dunked green in a lime green lit tankard of beer.

Along the street are signs that shows lit up ladies in skimpy wear, or if you prefer, men also in skimpy wear. One shows medicine which belongs to the pharmacy, which may or may not also sell the latest backstreet drugs. Strangely the backdoor gets a lot of customers then the front.

While this district has many choices, none can compare to the nightclubs. Yes it is easy to find a nightclub in this district, just look for a neon sign and you’re there. But the most famous club has no name, no sign and not even a local street. This club is There.

Located in the small backstreet between buildings, the huge club stood in the alley blocking off both sides. A line at each entrance. The bouncer stomp on his fifth ciggie for the night and took a look at the list in his hand. ‘Sorry mate’ he said in his gruff voice, ‘But you’re not on the list’

The bloke scoffed, ‘Come on mate, it’s impossible to get in either way so can you please just give me a break?’

The Bouncer stroked his little beard, ‘Sure’ he said.

The Bloke grinned and started heading in, but his arm was grabbed and the Bouncer snapped it in half. He screamed out in horror before getting his head smashed into the wall beside him. The onlookers in the line either ignored that or took pictures with their phones. They are the smart ones.

Siege of the Precinct

The Aftershoks are preparing for their battle. Hero walked through the camp, seeing his fighters training with test dummies in police uniform. Some burst into flames, others hit with thunder, and many more unique powers to make this one tough army.

He soon found Ice Queen and Healer, talking at the tables, they have become such close friends since Healer arrived here at the camp. Of course, its hard to ignore her blond hair turning into a spikey mess at the end there, must have run in the family.

‘Good evening ladies’ said Hero, his smile making them blush, ‘what are we all talking about here?’

Ice Queen looked away, surely that means there is something they don’t want him to know, but Healer, being loyal since the day he saved her, faced him, ‘It’s my brother’ she said.

‘The agent from the ACA, you do not need to worry’ said Hero, ‘He will never find you or this camp, I mean it when I said you are safe here’

‘Thank you, and I am so grateful for all you have done for me, for everyone’ said Healer, ‘but I am not talking about him’ Hero frowned, waiting for her to explained. ‘Ice Queen’s contacts told her, he is still alive’

King of Bay City

‘When we get out of here, I am going to kill you’ said Mike, his sleeves rolled up and leaning on the table, with Isaac and Rebecca sitting either side of him. The trio sitting in a white room while they wait for the Agent to walk in.

They were sent to one of the ACA’s hubs, for Isaac had broken his deal by being in a town far away from Bay City, where he was supposed to stay so they could keep an eye on him, but not only did he broke that deal, but he seems to know Hero’s secret.

‘For the last time, I was kidnapped, no I was Man-napped’ said Isaac

‘Why didn’t you call us, let us know you were ok?’ asked Rebecca

‘Because I was half dead’ replied Isaac, ‘you try shooting out of the ground from the Earth’s core’

‘Enough’ said Mike, ‘we can all talk about this later, now Isaac’ he turns to the Aftershok, ‘you said you know what his power is’

Isaac grinned, ‘yeah I do’ he went on, ‘I couldn’t hurt him cause’ it felt like punching a brick wall, and he could fly but that doesn’t mean he is Superman’

‘You said you made him bleed, how?’ asked Rebecca
