Description: Emplate
travels through his dimension of pain to our own
one and is greeted by D.O.A. Emplate talks about
recapturing Penance and promies revenge on the
GenXer's. Meanwhile in Boston,
Generation X, accompanied by Sean, are looking
forward to a chance to unwind. The group splits
up; Angelo goes to park Sean's jeep, dropping off
on the way to meet his ex-girlfriend Gayle
Edgarton. Ange parks the car when he has a sudden
migraine, while he tries to pull himself together
(no pun intended) someone comes up behind him and
knocks him out. Elsewhere Monet andSean are
talking, he begins to question her about her 'spells'
when she seems to tune out the rest of the world.
He mentions her family, and her twin sisters when
she suddenly runs away from him. He tries to
follow her and goes into a wooded area where he
is ambushed.
Back
at the Academy Emma is attempting to learn more
about Penance. She sits still for over an hour,
allowing Penance to come closer. She suddenly
uses her telepathic powers on her, stunning
Penance momentarily and allowing Emma to read the
girl's mind. She is so shaken by what she sees
that she is left vulnerable for Emplate to attack.
In
Boston Husk, Jubilee, Mondo and Synch are waiting
for their food in a restaurant. While Jubilee
goes on about the varying quality of chilli
available, Mondo and Paige talk a little. She
reveals that she 'likes' a friend (i.e. Jono) but
that it could never work out. Before the
conversation can go any further the food arrives.
Jubilee lifts the lid off the pot and a strange
purple mist rises out of it. It surrounds the
four teens, choking them until they pass out.
Meanwhile
Jono waits for Gayle at another restaurant across
town. When she shows up he sees that she has a
strange fangy-mouth-like thing on her hand. She
suddenly puts her hands into his chest, draining
the psionic energies inside of him.
M
arrives at the Academy and seeing the jeep,
assumes that everyone has arrived home safely.
She sees a strange light on the back lawn,
follows it and finds her teammates and teachers
the prisoners of Emplate, Gayle Edgarton and his
followers. Emplate greets M as his 'little sister'.
Comments:
Fairly average issue all round. We discover that
M is actually the sister of Emplate, shocks
galore. Emma gets some insight into Penance's
mind, and Paige and Jono's feelings for each
other are illustrated once more and there are yet
more hints as to what M's secret may be.
