Story Title: ROAD WARRIOR'S!

SUMMARY:

The New Mutants crash into Nguyen Goc Coy's(Shan's uncle) penthouse apartment & subdue him for information on Viper's whereabouts in order to save Dani. He agrees to tell them only if Shan will work for him for an entire year. With no other choice, Shan agrees.

All of Team America comes back together & are informed by Professor X of the seriousness of their mission. Work together as a team or Dani is as good as dead!

The Professor & Lilandra sit in the Blackbird while Prof tries to keep tabs on both groups. Team America is trying to steal the crystal Viper wants & the New Mutants are trying to rescue Dani. It's very tiring for him.

In Big Sur, California, Viper & Harada discuss both the fate of Dani & Harada's revenge on Marika (his sister) who is betrothed to Wolverine.

Team America reaches the fort at Black Mesa thanks to R U Reddy & Wolf, who the Prof puts to sleep to rest while Wrench & Honcho try to infiltrate the fort. They get their hands on the crystal but as they try to get out, the fortress blows up & the Prof & Lilandra are attacked psychically by some unknown mutant.

Meanwhile, the New Mutants begin their attack on Viper's compound. Dani manages to escape her cell & finds Rahne sliced down one side courtesy of Harada who now turns his attention to Dani!

Team America manages to get away from the fortress in one piece & are pursued by guards. Wolf manages to transform into the Black Rider & stop them.

Sam & Roberto stop Harada from killing Dani. Harada then transports to Viper, who is in psychic struggle with Karma. Harada knocks out Viper to release her from Karma's control & disappears with her.

Team America gets back to Professor X & helps him & Lilandra recover from the psychic assault from the unknown mutant.

The other mutants reach Dani & Rahne & after a joyful reunion, Karma is psychically attacked by the unknown mutant.

Then, on a nearby yacht, Harada pushes a button & blows up the compound where the New Mutants are!

The Prof senses surprise, terror, pain & then nothing from the mutants & hurries to get to them!

Continued in #7…


PERSONAL COMMENTS:

Seeing Shan's slimy, criminal Uncle made me furious when she agreed to help him for a year for the info they needed. Hopefully, something would keep her from having to fulfill that promise, I thought.

Charles was juggling his mental link with 2 teams in different locations. That was amazing to me.

Team America started showing the results of the Prof's training. The ability to change themselves into the Black Rider was neat.

Who was mentally attacking Charles & Karma? I was sure it would come out later.

Man, I couldn't wait to read the next one after Harada blew up the compound! I wondered if I was about to witness a death of one or more of the kids. Just don't let it be the end of Sam….
