Helluva Loud Adventures.
"Lady Ace captured."

(Somewhere in Royal Woods Michigan.)

The vision is blurry, and the woman chained to a steel chair is dazed and confused. "Huh? What? Wait, what?" the woman, is Lady Ace and she looks around and sees that everything is dark, and she can't get free from her restraints and she also feels weak. "What the heck is this? What's going on here?"

Then a spotlight it turned on, and Lady Ace closes her eyes, but she opens them again and she sees she is stuck and unable to move, and this enrages her. Lady Ace struggles and so she decides to use her powers, but then she sees someone step out of the shadows and she sees who it is. "You? The mysterious person from last month?!"

The woman snickers. "Yes, and I indeed could be the only person in the very world who has done the unthinkable, Lady Ace. So, best hold the presses and keep the flashes at bay, because today I will return to the spotlight and be the top Royal Woods Gazette, all over again!" The woman reveals herself, as the former boss of the Royal Woods Gazette, Jesse Hiller.

Lady Ace is surprised to see her former employer. "Ms. Hiller, I don't know what this is all about, but you are making a huge mistake!"

The woman smirks. "A mistake? Please, there is no mistake in what I am doing." She then sets up the camera. She then goes over towards Lady Ace. "Also, I know that you will use your superpowers to break free, and so this is what I am offering. Stay still and do as I say, or she gets it."

Jesse Hiller pushes a button on her wrist, and the spotlight shows some others who are tied up, and they are Alyssa DiMartino and Katherine Mulligan, and they are chained to chairs, around their legs and arms, and they have handkerchiefs on their mouths, they are awake and in tears. Lady Ace didn't like this.

"As you should know, it took some time for me to apprehend these ladies, and one of which I am annoyed by." Jesse Hiller goes towards Katherine Mulligan, and the news reporter is scared, and she looks to Lady Ace with concern. "But, a damn shame that Amanda Bright wasn't around, the one woman whom I hate and would wanna fire again and again and again for making me lose my job."

Lady Ace didn't like hearing that her real name has been mentioned, this is bad. "Now, you will do as I say and these ladies won't get the worst treatment ever." Jesse Hiller then shows some sharp and dangerous sex toys, and a camera facing them, and this horrifies the two women.

Lady Ace is horrified to see this. "You wouldn't dare!"

Jesse Hiller then goes over to Lady Ace and she slaps her in the face, and then she holds her cheeks. "You don't know what it is like to be me at the moment. I lost everything, and I had a hard time getting back on my feet. But apparently, I am only good at being the boss, the news scooper and making sure the Royal Woods Gazette is back on top with me leading. So, I will do whatever it takes to get the truth, and this is what I am going to do."

She then let's go of Lady Ace and then she explains. "I am going to reveal the secret identity of Lady Ace, and if you try to get free and use your super powers, then you can watch as these women become the next headline news. For everyone to see, as they are gone from this world, forever."

Katherine Mulligan and Alyssa DiMartino are in tears, they don't wanna suffer and die. Lady Ace doesn't want them to get hurt, and she also has tears in her eyes and she is angry. "Alright! Alright, fine! But when this is over, you have to let them go!"

Jesse Hiller grins. "Now that wasn't too hard, now was it?" She then goes over, and she places her hands onto the legs of Lady Ace, and she trails them to her waist, hips, and then to her chest, and she gropes on the suit covered breasts of Lady Ace, and this angers her and she turns red, but the woman smiles.

"You know, I always wondered what you looked like without this. I mean, someone such as you flying around in such a skin tight sexy suit would have many of your dear and loyal fans wondering the same thing. Has anyone else seen you without this, Lady Ace?"

Lady Ace doesn't look to her, and she grits her teeth and she is pissed off. Jesse Hiller then grabs Lady Ace by the face, and she looks at her. "For some reason, you look awfully familiar to me. Someone I hate, a lot." she then lands another slap to the face of Lady Ace, and then she punches her, and this stuns Lady Ace, and then she grins. "But we're on a short time schedule and I wanna get this over with and return to my life and career."

Jesse Hiller then readies the camera, and several other cameras, and she has some more knockout gas too. "I know that when I reveal who you are, you will be ruined and be a prime target. So, after I show everyone who you truly are under that suit, I will let those two morons go, and keep you as my pet. I will enjoy having fun, with Royal Woods True Blue Superheroine."

Lady Ace didn't like where this is going, but what matters is that the others are safe, and sound. Then the camera turns on and Jesse Hiller speaks.

"Hello, Royal Woods Michigan. We are live here, at an unrecognized area, and at the moment we have this special guest, who is willing to show and tell. Say hello to the camera, Lady Ace." Jesse Hiller has the camera facing the chained and bound superheroine, but Lady Ace looks away, and then Jesse Hiller has her facing the camera. "Don't be shy, the whole world is watching this, Lady Ace."

Lady Ace still doesn't do as she says and then Jesse Hiller continues. "Now, as our special guest here, we have two others as well." the camera then moves to see the tied DiMartino and Mulligan, and they are in tears and trying to break free. "Now, as we agreed Lady Ace. For the folks to know and for the presses to carry onward. Tell us, who you are or I am forced to do other measures."

Lady Ace growls. "Bite me, freak."

Jesse Hiller snickers. "Alright then." She then goes over, and she grabs Katherine Mulligan and forces her onto her knees, and in front of Lady Ace. "This is what will happen, I use this knife and there will be two options, Lady Ace. Either I slit her throat, and let her blood go all over you, or I rip that nice and tight red underwear of yours, and have her lick what is beneath?"

Lady Ace and Katherine Mulligan are horrified from this, and Lady Ace didn't know what to choose, and she sees Katherine Mulligan is in tears and sobbing, even she doesn't know what is happening and she doesn't wanna die, then Jesse Hiller speaks. "Or, tell us who you are!"

Lady Ace doesn't seem to have a choice, and she has to tell her. "Alright, fine... I..." Lady Ace has some tears. "Tell you, who I am."

Jesse Hiller grins. "Yes, tell everyone who is the True Blue stupid superhero, and ruin your life forever!"

Lady Ace is about to speak, but then the building shakes. Jesse Hiller looks around. "Whoa, stop the presses and what the heck is going on?"

Lady Ace sees her chance, and she breaks free from her chains and she lands a punch onto the face of Jesse Hiller, and she drops the knife and hits the table, Lady Ace then frees Katherine Mulligan and Alyssa DiMartino and she checks on them. "Are you two alright?"

The two women embrace her. "Thank you."

Lady Ace smiles, but they depart from the hug. "We're not out of the woods yet, we need to get..."

"Nobody is going anywhere!" Jesse Hiller has a shotgun. "Now, get back to the chairs and..." But then the wall comes down, and they see a Tiger Tank, and this vehicle knocks away Jesse Hiller, the shotgun drops and shoots the ceiling, he hatch opens and coming out are Lincoln, Luna and Loona Silva Hound, and their superhero counterparts, and the two guys driving the tank, Leon and Sergei Spellman.

"Hey, what did we miss?" asked Luna Silva Hound.

Lincoln Silva Hound goes over to them. "You girls alright?"

Lady Ace nods. "We're A-Okay." the two women escape using the large hole and are escorted by Moxxie and Millie, she then asks. "Wait, how did you guys find us? The live stream?"

Leon D. Spellman is confused. "What live stream? There is no feed and no signal here."

Loona Silva Hound then explains. "The FutureTech allied comm link thing with you. We tracked down your position, and also Stella Zhau saw what happened to you in the alley, and reported this to us. Didn't take that long for us to get here."

Luna Frost then speaks. "Also dudes, this is the old newspaper recycling facility."

"What?" Lady Ace then sees the camera, and the signal bar is so weak, it is not enough for a live feed. "Wait that means nobody saw what happened."

"No! This cannot be!" Jesse Hiller gets up, and she is enraged. "This was all planned, how did I forget about the signal?!"

"Because..." Lady Ace dashes forward and she punches the woman in the gut. "You are too over yourself..." she then elbows her in the back. "And so annoying, and..." Lady Ace then throws her to the other wall, and then she dashes over. "Just one psychotic ego maniac boss lady, and you're fired!" Lady Ace punches her in the face, and Jesse Hiller is knocked out and she falls to the ground.

Leon and Sergei go over to arrest her, and Luna Frost makes ice hand cuffs. Lady Ace then falls to her knees, and she tries to catch her breath, and the Silva Hounds go over and they check on her. "Are you alright?"

Luna Silva Hound then looks to the table. "Dudes, that lady is insane." they also see this, and are shocked. This woman is in deep trouble and she'll be locked away for what she tried to do. Lady Ace then hugs Lincoln and she sheds some tears, and so he returns the hug.

"Hey, it's alright now. Everything is A-Okay again, and you saved the day, Lady Ace. You stopped the bad guy."

"No..." Lady Ace still cries. "You all saved me." she then departs from the hug, and Lady Ace passionately kisses Lincoln Silva Hound, and the others are surprised to see this and the superhero counterparts yell out.

"Holy shit!"

Lady Ace then departs from the kiss and he hugs Lincoln again. This surprises Luna and Loona, and Lincoln looks stunned, and they can tell that he might be the only one who could comfort her, but Lincoln has another plan. 'I also need to talk to Alyssa DiMartino and Katherine Mulligan, something tells me that they might need comfort too.'

"To be continued in the next chapter folks!"

A/N: Lady Ace is saved, and way too close too. But will that damned woman return? Who knows, and Lincoln needs to help Lady Ace calm down, and get back to her feet once again. I hope that you all enjoyed reading this newly posted chapter folks!
