I realize that SOME PEOPLE might find reading their way through one hundred fifty-odd pages to get caught up to the current content a little time consuming and intimidating. (And I did all that work...SHAME on you. Shame, shame, shame) Hence, this thread and
corresponding link to the main page.
This is an
extremely abbreviated
summary. I've left quite a bit out to keep each chapter
summary as
brief as possible.
Prologue Lucille Harris and
Jeffery Jordan, agents of an unknown espionage agency based in the future USA, travel to Plateau City to rescue Rouge Castlestone, a
witness to a terrorist group. The terrorists attempt to kill her, and after a
brief gunfight Lucille kills the terrorists. One of the hostages
volunteers to get Lucy, Jeff and Rouge out of the city. It is revealed that Lucy and the hostage, Sarah Brighton, knew each other years ago. After reaching New Boston in the US, Rouge trips and causes Jeff's gun to discharge into Sarah, critically wounding her.
Chapter One: Lucille discovers a small boy in the secured hallways of the Hotel New Boston, also the HQ of her Agency, who speaks cryptically, then vanishes. Renald, the director of the Agency, breaks up Lucy and Jeff's partnership, assigning Jeff to guard Rouge and Lucy to train Mir
Cobalt, a new Agent. Mir and Lucy are given a combat assessment, where Mir proves to be
competent and Lucy poor at hand-to-hand combat. Lucy pays Sarah a visit at the hospital, where she intercepts a man attempting to kill the comatose girl. He proves to be Thomas Barker, one of the terrorists Lucy killed
rescuing Rouge.
Chapter Two: Lucy talks Renald into letting her and Mir
pursue Barker to Brazil. They meet up with Shawn, another agent, and track Barker to a camp deep in the Amazon. Barker attempts to
perform what looks like a
bizarre ritual over a glowing blue pond, but is interrupted by Lucy. Lucy is shot by Barker and falls into this pond, which heals her. She collects a sample.
