Rac burst into floods, she didn't sob, but instead silent tears poured down her cheeks. More disconcerting than sobs would have been. Wanda, Tabitha and Susan rushed to her, to comfort her.
"Does she do this a lot?" Susan asked
"You mean the tears? No." Wanda replied, wrapping her cloak round Rac.
"No, causing all females to mother her."
"That? Yeah."
"Doesn't do it intentionally."
"Sort of by accident."
"She's so frail."
"But she's strong."
"I couldn't live through, what she has, unscarred."
"But she is."
"I meant mentally."
"See what you mean."
Suddenly electric blue sparks appeared, flowing from one of the machines, they flowed together, and a person appeared. It was Henry.
"Rac, I've done it. Oh, what's up?" Henry ran to Rac, and gently ruffled her hair.
"Who are you?"
"I'm Henry. Her room mate."
"Henry?"
"I don't like my real name. Let me guess, Helen turned up, and you got Rac to tell her history?"
"Yes. How did you know?"
"I know her history. And this is the only time when she opens the flood barriers."
"Oh?"
"Come here, kid." Henry scooped Rac up, and held her close. "That better?"
"Yeah." Henry set Rac back down on her feet, and ruffled Rac's hair.
"I did what you wanted."
"Thanks." Henry appeared to notice the Fantastic Four for the first time.
"The Fantastic Four! I knew they'd turn up! Bobby owes me $20! Yahoo!" Henry disappeared in a flurry of blue sparks.
"Why did you call us?"
"For your help."
"Why? We can handle Apocalypse."
"I don't think you can."
"Why not?"
"'Cos he's got an army. He's got hostages."
"O.k."
"But who can?"
"Me, apparently."
"What?"
"How did you get that?"
"Well, he said, that he was fulfilling a prophecy. I did some research, and found out, that a mutant imprisoned Apocalypse, centuries ago. This mutant was the wise man of the local village. He made a prophecy, once he'd sealed up Apocalypse, about Apocalypse's return. It was all done in pictures." Rac projected a wall painting.
"This is it. It takes a while to understand it. But basically, it says that when Satan returns, he will destroy the world, with his army, unless the Lord fights him, with his army. Now, if you take Satan to mean destruction of the world ('cos that's what he'll bring), the destruction of the world, often is referred to as Apocalypse. The Lord is depicted as two symbols. Alpha and Omega. You know the line 'I am Alpha and Omega, I am all, the Creator, He!'. My codename is Creator; therefore I have to fight him.
"But what about the army?"
"Take a look at the picture. It is the basis for many hymns. Such as '.downwards bends each burning eye.' ... burning eye. Look!" Rac pointed to one figure, with a single burning eye.
"Shades!" Lance breathed.
"Yes, it's Scott. There's also the New York Angel, Spiderman, the X- men, the New Recruits, the Fantastic Four and the Brotherhood. You're all in there."
"You're great!"
"Listen, when you turn 18, come and join us. We could do with some new members."
"Yeah."
"Hey, get in line!"
"Anyway, here's our mobile number!" Johnny handed over a scrap of paper, with numbers scribbled on it. Rac entered the numbers into her mobile.
"I'll see you."
"You will."
"Where do we go?"
"Follow the drive, and you'll get to a mansion."
"Thanks." The Fantastic Four wandered down the drive, followed by the Brotherhood.
Rac stood at her post, giving people the drink, and directing them down the drive.
