The hereos watched the two men finish their coffee and leave the shop. Nano-man, Blaise and Hephaestus discretely followed the thin guy who had recieved the "package". Catching up with him at a bus stop, Blaise and Nano-man boarded a bus with him keeping their distance. After a couple of stops the thin guy appeared to get suspicious and moved to get off. Blaise intervened bundling him off the bus. Producing a gun he threatened the ex-marine. As Nano-man disintegrated the gun Blaise covered the man in a plume of flame from his gauntlets. While Nano-man ushered the bus away Blaise used his bolas to bind his legs. Taking something from his jacket and swallowing it, the thin guy snapped his restraints and turned to face the heroes; his eyes now had a piercing look. Nano-man sent forth is nano-machines whose deconstruction caused him enough pain to knock him unconscious. While Blaise waited for the police to arrive Nano-man and Hephaestus flew to join Magni, Blue Bolt & Bloodthirst who'd followed the other guy. The other guy was built bigger and led the heroes to a dock side warehouse. Attempting to spy through the windows the God landed on the roof with a crash. Deciding a stealth entrance was no longer am option if ripped out the buildings power line and Blue Bolt teleported them inside. Appearing on a raised gangway, Blue Bolt's glow was the only illumination. A group of men, apparently ready for their entrance, opened fire. The well built man, aka Drum, approached the heroes as from behind a stack of crates a man in a winged suit appeared; aka Techno. Firing his twin lasers he knocked Magni unconscious. Realising they needed back up Blue Bolt began teleporting the rest of the team in. As they appeared Techno also summoned help from adjoining rooms. A man called Speed appeared and moved like blur around the warehouse. Another called Bass leaped off the gangway to hover in the air surrounded by a field of sound. Then from another door Rant appeared. Shouting his powerful voice at Bass the sound field absorbed it. Redirecting this energy Hephaestus took the blast. At this time visual perspective in the warehouse took on a life of its own. Much like it had in the bank raid weeks before. Trying to take advantage of this, the dance inspired group pressed the attack but gained little result. Bloodthirst pulled Magni to one side allowing Nano-man to heal him. Blue Bolt finished his final trip bringing Blaise with him. From where they appeared they could see two sets of red and gold power armor standing in crates apparently inactive. Nano-man moved in to tackle Rant. As he did Rave appeared. Holding Rant's hand she attempted to disintegrate the regenerating man. Failing , Nano-man returned fire dropping the blonde bomb shell. Now able to rely on what their eyes told them the heroes pushed back. Bloodthirst transformed mid-air, from wolf vampire, to drain Bass' blood. Magni lifted a truck with Drum attached and through them both against the wall. Hephaestus fired off his homing missiles which, despite Techno's excellent maneuvering, badly damaged the flying villain's suit. Attempting to repair some of the minor damage Techno activate the dormant power suits. Blue Bolt and Blaise moved in to take care of them. Smashing out through one of the warehouse windows Magni called down a bolt of lightning. Redirecting it with his hammer he fire it at Techno. Blasting him out of the air the suited villain fell unconcious.
