The truth was that Blitz was very close to home. He was in another part of Berlin with the Rovers attempting to stop some cano-mutants from dog napping the pupils of a recently opened guard dog school. At the moment he was fighting a particularly nasty cano-mutant. Well actually he was running from the cano-mutant and hoping no one saw.
"Let me give you a hand Comrade" Exile said coming around a corner and dashing that hope. The Husky then froze the ground under the cano-mutant's feet and sent him sliding into Blitz.
"I didn't need your help Exile" Blitz snapped as he got to his feet.
"Your welcome" Exile snapped back.
"Was that the last one" Hunter asked when he saw the unconscious cano-mutant.
"Yes Comrade" replied Exile.
"Good then lets hit the road Rovers".
The next morning all the Rovers except Blitz were eating breakfast as they watched the news.
"Blimey that's just awful" Colleen commented about the current news bulletin.
"Da" agreed Exile "for once I am glad Blitz is the lazy head with sleepy bones. This will upset him for sure".
"What will upset me" Blitz asked entering the room. Then he saw the news bulletin. "No" he said in disbelief "that can't be true''.
"I'm afraid it is buddy" Hunter replied putting a hand on Blitz's shoulder.
"I have to go home" Blitz said pulling away from Hunter. "Tell the Master to call me if I'm needed". Then without another word Blitz hurried off.
