(Chapter-26)
Lex knew he could use the President's visitation as a diversion to get out of the city cause that would pull most of the L,A.P.D. to Escort detail and Security and it would also get the National Guard moved. But what he doesn't know is the visitation is all a put on to draw him out, and the President is a look alike. He thought he had the perfect out with the visitation.

At the Hotel Brock and Marco was staying in, they had just gotten ready to leave when Spiderman showed up. Brock got knocked back where Marko just stood there wondering how Spiderman knew they were here. Marko quickly extended his arms and knocked Spiderman off the wall. Faith and Buffy came in and sat up a Sonic Sound Device, Shego was there to provide the fire, cause her Plasma powers could make things really hot.
Faith passed to Buffy and Shego a pair of ear plugs, once they had them on Faith threw a switch and activated the device. They could see the sound waves when they hit Sandman's body as they rippled through him. But once they hit Venom he shrieked in pain that's when Shego began blasting him with Plasma Energy. After several minutes the Venom Parasite separated itself from Edward Brock.
With that done Shego was able to trap the Venom Parasite in a Containment Canister. Now all they had to do is take care of Flint/Marko Sandman.
Spiderman used a new trick to get Sandman outside of the building where Jennifer was waiting with Heather with a large vacuum that's used to removing sand and dirt from objects on the ocean floor. Inside Spiderman blasted a web to hold Sandman long enough to use some more webbing that would be used to get him out.
The fight was still ragging when Spiderman was able to get Marco bound. Once bound Spiderman dropped from the ceiling and used his webbing to form a long enough line. Everybody pulled with all the strength they had and was able to get him outside the door. Once he was in place Jennifer and Heather dropped a huge hose that stopped just before hitting Marko in the head. Jennifer hit a large button that activated the vacume. It cause Marco to be pulled up into a Containment Bag.
Jennifer then threw a switch and hit the button again, this caused Marko to be expelled into a Concrete Mixer that held a special mixture that would allow only his head to move until he was removed and placed in a special cell that would prevent his escape. Edward Brock was transported to the Hospital for a complete check up by a Doctor before being taken to jail. Faith, Buffy and everybody else were sitting in the conference room back at the L.A.P.D. building.
Faith stood up and walked to the podium, "Good work people, with Marko/Sandman and Brock/Venom out of the way we can look foward to catching Lex. By now he would have noticed the news of the Presidents visit to L.A.. But what he doesn't know is the visit is fake, it was thought up by Heather as a way to catch Lex. But now we need to make a phone call."
Faith walked over to the phone that was in the room and called Lex, "(Hello)...Hey Lex...(What the hell do you want bitch?)...Damn Lex you're really scrapping the bottom of the name barrel for an insult...(Just tell me what you want)...Well I thought I would call to let you know to watch the news tonight...(Why would I want to do that?)...Because it'll have the full story on the two men you hired getting arrested...(YOU'RE DEAD BITCH, YOU HEAR ME YOUR DEAD)...talk to ya later Lex."
Faith hung up the phone and looked at the others, "Ya know I think he's pissed at us."
They had a small laugh, but knew they had to be on guard cause Lex was more dangerous when he gets pissed.
Faith looked at her watch, "Ok people it's dinner time, So lets knock off for the evening."
Tomorrow they hope Lex goes for the bait of the President's visit to get a way out of the city. And if he does he'll be on his way to the new Prison they had built for criminals like him.
They knew they had to be extra careful now that Lex was really pissed. They knew when he gets this pissed he could easily change his mind and come after them and not escape the city. But if they knew Lex the way they did, they know he will try and escape and seek revenge at a later time. But they were still gonna be extra vigilant with watching out for Lex.

The next day everyone met in the conference room at the L.A.P.D. Headquarters. Faith stood at the podium, "Ok people this meeting is to talk about the situation with Lex. We called him last night and when we told him we took out Sandman and Venom he blew his top."
Lional raised his hand, "I'm sorry to be butting in so early. But if I may make a suggestion."
Faith smiled, "You're not butting in early, please go for it."
Lional stood, "With as pissed as you said he was, I suggest you make a small enough opening and let him slip through."
Faith leaned on the podium, "How so?"
Lional paced a bit, "Let him still think the President's visit is real and you pull some people away from a certain area. When he sees the opening he'll take it. And If I'm correct he'll head for Sunnydale and once there he'll be able to calm down a bit and then you can make the capture. Cause as you know with Lex as pissed as he is, he'll do anything to keep from getting caught. And that includes Suicide-By-Cop."
Faith stiffened, "Which means he'll have the Police kill him so the virus can be released. Damn why didn't I see that. Jennifer I need you to have the BOLO (Be On The Look Out) called off." Faith looked at a map of the City and County of Los Angels, "I want everyone in sector seven pulled out about twenty minutes before Air Force One lands.
Buffy looked at the map, "That would leave a good five square mile opening for him."
Faith turned Shego, "I need you to call the C.H.P. and have them also call off the BOLO. We can't risk him getting killed."
Shego wrote down what she needed to do.
Faith turned around from the map, "Ok people, in about an hour and a half Air Force One will be arriving, I want this to look good so lets get busy."
An hour later all extra L.A.P.D., C.H.P. National Guard and Faith and Buffy's people were pulled out of sector seven. Now the only thing people can see is normal everyday Police activity, And that's just the way they need it for Lex to make good his escape.

Mean while at his Hotel Lex got word that every extra personal from Police to National Guard had been pulled from the area the Police call Sector Seven to beef up Presidential Security.
Lex smiled, this was just what he was waiting for. He grabbed his bags and headed to the guarge where he had an SUV waiting. He loaded his bags into the SUV and got in and left.
KpKpKpKpKpKpKpKp
Outside the Hotel was a van being used by Dog and his people. Dog picked up his cell phone, "Hey Faith, it's Dog...(What you got big guy?)...He's leaving just as you said he would. You want us to follow him?...(No, we know where he's going, so come on back and let get ready to head back to Sunnydale)...No problem." Dog shut his cell phone off, "Ok we're to return to the L.A.P.D. Headquarters and get ready to head back to Sunnydale." Dog and his people packed things up in the van and headed back to the headquartes building.

Five hours later Air Force One left L.A.
Faith turned from the tv, "Ok people, Air Force One is gone. And just as we knew he would, Lex has also left the city and is now headed back to Sunnydale."
Jennifer looked up at Faith, "Hey Faith, you think you got room for two more people?"
Faith looked at Jennifer and smiled, "If you're asking if you can come with us, the answer is yes. So you better have Lara pack a couple of bags."
Jennifer jumped up and down and then hugged Faith and Buffy, "Thank you, thank you, thank you."
Faith pulled back, "Ok, Ok, Ok the longer you're here the longer we wait. "
So an hour later Jennifer and Lara returned to the L.A.P.D. Headquarters and loaded their bags into the large truck that would carry all the gear back to the school.
Faith looked at her watch, "Ok lets get loaded up and head home. We have a fugitive to catch."
A few minutes later everyone was headed to L.A.X. to catch four Black Hawk helicopters that will fly them back to Sunnydale.

Mean while on the road headed to Sunnydale, Lex listened to the radio and watched as the Police passed him as if he was an everyday citizen out for a drive. Lex smiled and continued to listen to the music he was playing as he headed for what will be a fight like he never had.
