Chapter 10: Journey To Nomanisan Island
The Batwing Streaked Through The Skies As It headed Towards The City.
Batman KNEW That is Syndrome IS Back (And, It Seems VERY LIKELY He Is)
He Would Strike At The Incredibles FIRST...Meaning The PARR FAMILY Was In Danger.
Sure Enough, His Suspicions Proved TRUE...
Just As The Batwing Came Over The Neighborhood Where The Parr`s Lived...a Smoking Blaze Was Visible.
"oh, my god... Said Batwoman
Batman Squinted His Eyes In Anger.
"violet...
He Landed The Plane Beside The House...Which Was DEMOLISHED.
Batman Jumped Out And Overlooked The Burning Inferno.
Bawoman Soon Joined Him.
"i`m sorry, tim...
"Their Still Alive...I KNOW It.
"That May be True...But, How Can We Find Them!
"Syndrome Is a Pure, TEXTBOOK Supervillain...
Knowing Him, he Has Taken Them To His Secret Base On Nomanisan Island.
"But, What If Their Is a Trap Waiting For Us?
"For ME, Batwoman...Not US.
"What?
"This Is One Mission I have To Do ALONE.
Beside, I Have Something I Need You To Do, FIRST.
"What is It?
[Meanwhile, On Nomanisan Island]
Mr. Incredible Groaned As he Struggled To Open His Eyes.
His Visions Was Blurred, But Soon Cleared Up.
To His Horror...He Was Back In The Control Room Of Syndrome`s Base.
He Was Once Again Restrained By The Electro orbs...Along With His family.
At First He Thought He Was Dreaming...But, It Was Clear That Wasn`t The case.
"Helen!
Elastigirl Soon Awoke.
"B-Bob?
"You Okay?
"I...I Guess So.
What Happened?, Where Are We?
"allow me to answer hat question. Said a Chilling Voice
Mr. Incredible And Elastigirl Looked Over, As Did Violet And Dash...Who Soon Woke Up.
a Man Dressed In a Black Costume With a White "S" And Cape Walked Over.
"SYNDROME! Exclaimed Mr. Incredible
"You Remember Me, I`m Flattered... Said Syndrome With a Snide Grin
"It Can`t Be...YOUR DEAD!
"WAS Dead...No Thanks To You.
Luckily, I Still Have SOME Friends...Like Xeric.
"Xeric! Exclaimed Elastigirl
Suddenly, a Large Screen Flickered On.
a Video Image Of Xeric Appeared.
"Hello, Helen...Long Time No See.
Helen Narrowed Her Eyes In Anger.
"Xeric...What Are You up To, THIS TIME!
"Oh, Not Much, My dear...
Just a Little Plan That Will Ensure My Domination Of The World.
"And, Your Doing This By Bringing Syndrome Back To Life!
Xeric Chuckled.
"Syndrome Was Only The FIRST PHASE Of My Plan...You Were The Next Phase.
Elastigirl Looked Around.
"wait a minute...
Elastigirl`s Eyes Grew Wide With Anger.
"WHERE IS JACK-JACK!
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH MY BABY!
"Don`t Worry, Your Son is Safe...Syndrome Has Him, That Was Part Of The Deal.
Syndrome Smirked At Mr. Incredible.
"told you i would "Get Your Son, Eventually"...
Mr. Incredible Struggled Angrily At Syndrome, But Couldn`t Escape.
"What Are You Planning To Do To us? Asked Violet
Xeric Grinned.
"Why, It`s Very Simple...I Am About To Achieve POWER And YOU Will Help Me.
"We Won`t Do ANYTHING For You...no matter what you threaten. Spat Out Elastigirl
"Oh, You Misunderstand, Helen, My dear...
I Don`t Expect You To help "Volentarily"...In fact, You Won`t have Much Of a CHOICE.
Xeric Suddenly Pressed a Button, Underminer Appeared Next To Xeric On teh Screen.
"Underminer...How Goes Progress Of My Machine?
"The Power Absorber Should Be opperational In a few Minutes...
Once It`s Online, Your`ll Be Able To Drain The Incredibles Of their Powers And Contain It
"WHAT! Exclaimed Elastigirl
"That`s Right Helen.
I Intend To Take Away All Your Powers: Super Strength, Elastisity Invisibility/Force Field Energy And Super Speed!
The Incredibles Gasped In Shock As Xeric Continued To Speak.
"When The Machine Is Up And Running, It Will Steal Your Super Energy And Contain All Your Powers In An Electronic Orb...Where I can Desperse It WHENEVER I CHOOSE.
Aside From Keeping The Powers For Myself...I Will Sell Them To Whoever Can AFFORD THEM...
Xeric Chuckled Evily.
"Just Picture It...
An Army Of SUPER STRONG SOLDIERS, INVISIBLE SPIES, ELASTIC ASSASINS And SUPER FAST MESSENGERS.
I Will Make a "Killing"...And, Syndrome`s Own Troops Are All But TOO HAPPY To Beta Test It.
"And, What Will Happen To US?
"You Will Become NORMAL, POWERLESS HUMANS...
I Shall Leave You Fate In the Hands Of SYNDROME...All I Want Is Your Powers.
"IF YOUR THINK WE`LL LET YOU USE OUR POWERS FOR EVIL-
"Like I Said...Your Don`t Have Any choice.
So, You Might As Well Give Up, Now...WIth All Of You Out Of My Way, NOTHING CAN STOP ME!
[Meanwhile, At The Batcave]
Batman Gathered Some Essentual That He Figured He Would Need And Packed Them Into His Utility Belt...
He Then Walked Down To the Lower Level Of The Batcave...Where The Caverns Waterways Was Located.
There Was a Dock...Where a Bat-Shaped Boat/Sub Was Waiting: The Aquabat
Batwoman Stood Over a Ledge, Overlooking Batman Getting In.
"I Don`t Like You Going To that Island ALONE!
"Trust Me...It`ll Be MUCH EASIER For Me If I`m "Flying Solo".
Besides, I Need You Here For "PLAN B"...In Case "PLAN A" Doesn`t Quite Work Out.
"Could You AT LEAST Take The Batwing?
"Planes Have Been Known For Being SHOT DOWN Near Nomanisan, Cass.
The Aquabat May Not Be As Strong At The Batmobile or Batwing...But, It`s The SAFEST Way Into the Island.
Batwoman SIghed.
"Alright...
Just Be Careful, And CALL BACK WHen You Get There!
"I Will...DOn`t Worry ABout Me.
Batman Get`s Into The Aquabat And Shuts The Door Tightly.
The Aquabat Sinks Underwater And Speeds Off Out Of The Cave And Into The Sea.
[Several Hours Later]
Batman Sits Quietly In The Boat/Sub.
His Radar Shows He Is Nearing Nomanisan Island...
He Opened Up The Window And Looks Through The Glass Visor.

"Now...To Find Out Where The Incredibles Are Being Held.
Batman Typed Something In.
Colored Areas Appeared On Certain Parts Of The Map.
"Hmmm...
There Appears To be An Area With AN Energy Level HIGHER Than The Other Facilities.
Batman Narrowed His Eyes.
"That Must Be Where They Are Keeping The Incredibles...
Batman Got Up And Walked Away.
"Time To Go To Work.
[Meanwhile, Back At The Base]
Xeric Walked Into The Containment Room, With Underminer Behind Him.
He Was Holding a Large Gun WIth a Blue Orb Latched Onto It.
Xeric Grinned Evily.
"It Is TIME... Said Xeric, With An Evil Grin.
Mr. Incredible And Elastigirl Glared At Him.
Dash And Violet Stared With Looks Of Fear In Their Eyes.
"Ms. Violet Parr, You Always Wondered What It Would Be Like To Be NORMAL, Yes?

He Walked over To teh Weakened Mr. Incredible And Grinned Like a Madman.
"i`ve waited a LONG TIME for this...
Syndrome Struck At Mr. Incredible.
[Meanwhile, Outside The base]
Several Troopers Patroled Outside The Large Compound...

However, They Were All Unaware Of a Dark Shadow Lurking Within the Dense Jungles...

Batman Moved With Speed And Grace Through The Leaves And Branches.
HE Stayed Hidden In teh Shadows As He Got Closer To The Compound.
He Saw a Round Vehicle Moving Along a Track.
He Climbed a Tree And Waited For It To Get Closer...
Once It Did, He Leaped And Landed On It.
He Reached In And Toss One Guard Out, While Grabbing Another And Knocking Him Out.
Later, The Round Train Approached The Main Gate...With Only One Soldier.
The Guards Let Him In And The Train Moved Along The Track.

"You Always Thought You Were SO GREAT Beause Of Your POWERS!
All You Supers Did...But, I SHOWED THEM!, I SHOWED THEM ALL!
I DEFEATED ALL THE SUPERS!, AND I DID IT WITHOUT ANY POWERS!
Bob Fell To His Knees.
"STOP! Shouted Helen

Syndrome Snickered.
"Well...Yes, BATMAN...It Is True.
Xeric DID Use The Pits To Bring me Back...And MORE.
