Stormy: Be Strong
Having left the Magnus Lair, Stormy Magnus races to the known location of the silo.
"You've found out how Omega is doing?" Stormy says through the radio,
"He's just broken through the front gate." EJ replies back, "Don't worry, he'll be fine."
Stormy eventually reaches the known location of the silo.
A downward spiral path encircles the outside of the silo which is barricaded with steel.
Stormy races down the path on the MagnusCycle. Round and around Stormy rides on the spiral path, which feels as if it can go on forever.
Eventually after a few minutes, Stormy reaches the bottom.
A cargo door acts as the main entrance. As Stormy dismounts the MagnusCycle and walks towards the Cargo Door, it opens, slowly rising up.
As Stormy steps through, she is shocked with what she sees.
In the giant silo, a giant intercontinental ballistic missile stands in the centre of the silo, which towers right up to the roof. Surrounding it on the walls is a circular staircase with prison cells going all the way up.
Inside the prison cells is what shocks Stormy the most.
"Oh my God!" Stormy shouts in disbelief.
The prison cells contain all the hostages that Alexander Stephenson and his cult have kidnapped within the last year.
"Welcome Stormy!"
A voice booms from the top of the silo. A helipad platform resides on the top next to the nose of the missile. There stands Alexander Stephenson.
"You are just in time for the cleansing of this infected nation!"
"You fucking monster!" Stormy shouts at the top of her lungs.
"If you want to have me so bad, then come on up here!" Alexander shouts with joy.
Several armed cultists emerge. Sporting assault rifles, they begin to fire.
Stormy pulls out her submachine blaster and starts to fire.
She takes out the cultists in her way, and begins to climb the circular staircase.
Given her incredible speed and agility she possesses, she manages to clear a third of the staircase.
"Go girl! Get that monster!" some of the prisoners cheer Stormy on as she ascends the staircase.
"Nice movement!" Alexander shouts, "Let me throw in a wrench."
Out of nowhere, a part of the staircase explodes right in front of Stormy, who comes to a screeching halt.
Looking to her right, she decides to grapple to the next few levels of the staircase using her gauntlets. Getting her footing, she continues to climb.
More parts of the staircase explode, making it harder for Stormy to traverse.
She again decides to use her cable launchers to ascend a few more levels, almost to the top, but more parts of the staircase are being destroyed by explosions.
In a split decision, Stormy decides to jump on the missile itself. Getting a hold of anything that can be grabbed, she begins to climb.
The silo begins to rumble, the missile begins to shake ferociously.
"EJ! Nesha!" Stormy shouts on the radio, "The missile's been activated!"
"We're hacking the missile control computer now!" Nesha shouts through the radio,
"Have... to keep... going!" Stormy mutters to herself as she continues to climb.
Thoughts race through her mind.
Her cousin, Omega Magnus...
Her friend EJ...
Her uncle Dallas...
Her mother, Stefani....
The woman she loves, Nesha...
Her friend, Harry…
Her sister from another mother, Tengge...
"I have... to be strong... for them!" Stormy shouts to herself.
She continues to climb, her willpower driving her more forward.
She reaches the nose of the missile.
From there, she sees the helipad, with Alexander standing in the middle.
From the nose, she makes a massive leap.
She lands on the helipad.
"Well done!" Alexander exclaims, "Now that you're here, the cleansing can begin!"
Alexander removes his robe.
He sports a exo suit with synthetic muscles along with thin tubes encircling the suit. The suit itself is red and white, the very colors that represent the Cult of Confederacy.
"A little gift courtesy of my trusting sources!" Alexander proudly proclaims, "This suit duplicates the speed and strength that you Magnus freaks possess. This was bound to come in handy someday."
He unsheathes a double edged sword from behind his back.
The sword has beautiful craftsmanship, decorated with rubies and jewels.
He points the sword at Stormy, who in turn pulls out her dual chow bows.
"The cleansing of this infected nation... starts with you!" shouts Alexander. "Brace yourself!"
Both assume fighting stance.
