1. Phase 1

6 lines
Cecil Stedman

Jesus... Hail Mary looks even more unstable than before.

Invincible

I thought I killed this thing already!

Cecil Stedman

You almost did. But during all that chaos, it slipped away before we could finish the job.

And frankly, Mark, with your father tearing the planet apart, I had bigger priorities than giving you a full debrief.

Invincible

Yeah? Well, your "lower priority" is tearing through the harbor right now!

Cecil Stedman

Believe me, I noticed. Half the coastline's already gone.

2. Phase 2

5 lines
Atom Eve

We finally made it budge!!

Dupli-Kate

It actually felt like we were just tickling it until now.

Cecil Stedman

It's a Kaiju, Kate. It's survived more extinction events than the rest of you have had hot meals. What exactly were you expecting? A polite surrender?

Keep your focus. This isn't a street fight. You aren't going to drop that thing with a standard combo.

Invincible

Come on, team. We do this together, or we don't do it at all. Let's break it!

3. Phase 3

5 lines
Invincible

Come on, everyone! Hail Mary is on her last legs! Let's finish this!

Cecil Stedman

Good. Time to send that thing back to the Second Age, where it belongs.

Rex Splode

Wow. Didn't realize we were beating up one of Immortal's old drinking buddies.

The Immortal

Careful, Rex. Keep talking and I'll show you how old I really am.

Cecil Stedman

Save the comedy routine for later. Hail Mary's still breathing. Finish the job.

4. Phase 4

7 lines
Atom Eve

We did it!

Rex Splode

I'm pretty sure I'm feeling just about as dead as Hail Mary is.

Cecil Stedman

Yes, the threat has been neutralized. That was a top-tier performance out there. You can all be proud of what you achieved.

Black Samson

Don't sell it short, Cecil. That was easily the most dangerous fight this team has been forced to handle.

Invincible

Yeah, no kidding. I just really hope that was the last of it. It is dead for good, right, Cecil?

Cecil Stedman

The vitals have flatlined, Mark. It's as dead as it's going to get.

...Now, get back to base. We have a cleanup crew arriving in five, and I don't want any of you standing around when they get here.

5. Phase 5

10 lines
Invincible

CECIL! What the hell is Hail Mary doing back here?!

Cecil Stedman

Calm down, Mark!

Invincible

Calm down?! You keep making the same mistakes over and over again!

Cecil Stedman

ENOUGH! Yes, I kept Hail Mary contained. And yes... it escaped again.

But I did it because this planet's running out of options. You know that better than anyone.

Every day, something stronger comes for us. Sequids. Viltrumites. Things worse than both. We need every weapon we can get.

Invincible

And every time you play with one of your "weapons," innocent people end up paying for it!

Cecil Stedman

Save the lecture! We can argue morality after we stop that thing from flattening the city!

So what's it gonna be, Mark? You helping us... or getting out of the way?

Invincible

God... you're unbelievable. But fine. Let's end this.

6. Phase 6

4 lines
Cecil Stedman

Good work, kid. But this is just the beginning.

You remember what we pumped into that monster to stop Omni-Man? Every drug. Every enhancement. Every illegal upgrade we could manufacture.

That thing was built to survive impossible fights. Which means this battle is going to be long... bloody... and brutal.

Stay focused. Coordinate with your Alliance. Wear it down, piece by piece. Because if Hail Mary reaches downtown, there won't be a city left to save.

The end of the story so far
