MASK 2:The Next Generation
----
You!
----
AN:The year is almost over and I'm afraid I might not make my deadline, but we'll see.
Well, enjoy.
Hack, Slash, Gearbox, and Dr. Frankenstein stood before Darwood scared out of their minds. They had good reason too, since they had used the Mind's Pencil without Darwood's approval or knowledge and the weapon had been destroyed as a result.
"Give me one reason why I shouldn't kill the four of you." said Darwood.
"Because it wouldn't be nice?" asked Slash.
"Not a good answer." said Darwood. "First off, whose idea was it to use the Mind's Pencil on MASK?"
"Slash." said Gearbox.
"I should've known." said Darwood. "Why did you try to use the Mind's Pencil against MASK?"
"I thought it would help to solve the problem with MASK permanently." said Slash. "I thought it would be something you'd do or be proud of."
"If you had come to me with your plan, I would have explained why it wouldn't have worked!" said Darwood. "Why do you think I told your teammates to put on their masks before I activated the Pencil?"
"Uh..." said Slash.
"Never mind." said Darwood. "Slash, as punishment, you and Hack will be working directly under Marcus."
Hack and Slash both groaned.
"What's more," continued Darwood "Gearbox and Dr. Frankenstein, you both had the opportunity and authority to prevent this mistake, yet you did nothing. I have a special punishment for you. Skull, Crossbones!"
"Yeah?" asked Crossbones.
"What's your progress on the Juggernaut?" asked Darwood.
"I estimate about sixty percent or so." said Skull.
"How long have you two been working?" asked Darwood.
"About four hours." said Crossbones.
"Good, you two can now take guard duty at the commandant's house." said Darwood. "Gearbox and Dr. Frankenstein can finish your work."
"The plans are on the dashboard." said Skull as he walked towards the Beluga.
----------
The MASK team drove into their base camp not far away. The Dove was carried in with the Ferret's winch.
The Behemoth's trailer and Mammoth's tanker were combined into the fort again. Liam set down the Dove.
Laura looked out of the Behemoth's window at the Dove, what was almost her watery tomb.
Soon after the team had set up, Jeremy called a meeting with Rocky and Scooter. "Okay, what have we learned so far?" he asked.
"Darwood's got some kind of control over the troops at the base." said Scooter.
"Also, Darwood's got some new agents and weapons." said Rocky.
"On top of that, he had that ray gun which we're looking into." said Scooter as he looked over at the barrel of the Mind's Pencil being delivered on the back of the Roc.
"And they're holding Gates and his daughter hostage." said Rocky.
"Other than the fact that Max has the hots for Laura, that's it." said Scooter.
"Okay, give me a few minutes." said Jeremy. "I have to come up with a game plan."
"I gotcha." said Rocky as Max walked over to the Behemoth.
"Laura?" said Max.
"Max, what are you doing here?" asked Laura.
"I just came to see if you were alright." said Max. "You gave us quite a scare."
"I wasn't expecting that guy to do that." said Laura. "Thanks for saving my life."
"Think you're still up to some action?" asked Max.
"I just need some time to clear my head and rest." said Laura. "I think I'll be fine."
Not far away, Chris practiced his karate. After a series of spin kicks, he bowed to his imaginary opponent.
"What did the air do to get you so mad?" asked Kenny as he walked over.
"Just doing my katas." said Chris. "I do it to relax."
"Laura's fine." said Kenny.
"It's not that." said Chris. "It's something else."
"Yeah?" asked Kenny.
"Remember those voices on the answering machine tape?" asked Chris. "I swear there was something familiar about them."
"How long have you felt this way about me?" asked Laura.
"A while, I guess." said Max. "I think it was since we were both chosen for the team."
"I'm not interupting anything important, am I?" asked Jeremy.
"Depends on your definition." said Max.
"I've gathered my thoughts." said Jeremy. "I need you for the next mission."
Within minutes, Max, Sven, Chris, and Kenny had gathered.
"So, what does your mask do?" asked Chris.
"It takes pictures." said Sven. "It takes special pictures. This is a control glove. If I retract my index finger, I take a thermal picture. If I retract my middle finger, I take a picture that analyzes technological systems. If I retract my ring finger and pinkie, I take a picture that analyzes a person's medical condition."
"What happens if you retract your thumb?" asked Kenny.
"Then you'd better let me drive." said Sven.
Jeremy walked over. "Okay, here's the plan." he said. "My theory is that the Foxes are holding someone hostage at the commandant's house. I'd like to see if it's Gates before we attempt a rescue."
"Freezeframe wouldn't be able to do that." said Sven.
"I'm not asking you to." said Jeremy. "I'll use my Hawk mask to get that information. If it's Gates or his daughter, Chris and Kenny will assist me in their rescue. Sven, I asked you for reshoots on those soldiers. Max will take you in, the rest is up to you."
"I'm going to need to borrow a vehicle." said Max. "Enzo's still fixing the Bear."
"Hey, Liam!" called Jeremy. "Your cousin needs your car."
"Okay, be sure to return it in one piece." said Liam.
"Ah, you know me." said Max.
"What's everybody else up to?" asked Kenny.
"Let me think." said Jeremy. "Enzo is repairing the Dove and the Bear. Scooter and Michael are trying to determine what that thing Darwood was using is. Laura is still recuperating. Liam, Rocky, Caitlin, and Wei are standing guard."
"Are we going?" asked Chris.
"Yeah, let's go." said Jeremy.
----------
As the Skyhawk, Roc, and Ferret pulled out, Scooter and Michael went over the barrel of the Mind's Pencil.
"How did the computer hacking go?" asked Michael.
"Not well." said Scooter. "I still can't get through the firewalls and passwords."
"YOU can't?" asked Michael. "That's odd."
"I'll say." said Scooter. "Any idea what this thing is?"
"It's some kind of sonic ray projector." said Michael. "It didn't damage our vehicles, so the frequency wasn't right for that."
"I know this thing was used when we landed on the island." said Scooter. "I picked up the ray on my computer."
"We'll know soon enough." said Michael.
----------
A few minutes later, the Skyhawk and Roc pulled up to the base of the hill the commandant's house sat on. Jeremy, Chris, and Kenny climbed out of their vehicles with their masks on.
"Okay, at the top of this hill sits the house Gates was living in." said Jeremy. "Our current theory says that Gates or his daughter is being held hostage there."
"Sven picked up three distinct people." said Chris. "My guess is one is Gates or his daughter since Darwood wouldn't risk leaving one agent to guard them both."
"Yeah, he'd be easily overpowered." said Kenny.
"I'm about to see if my theory is correct." said Jeremy as he reached out his hand. "White Hawk, on!"
A white energy mass shaped like a hawk flew out of Jeremy's mask visor. He guided it up the side of the hill and towards the house. He flew the mass around the house and directed it towards the windows. He saw Skull and Crossbones in the living room and Gates in an upstairs bedroom. He then flew the mass back down the side of the hill and dissipated it.
"It's Gates." said Jeremy. "He's in an upstairs room. There are two goons standing guard. I think the best way up would be to take that hiking trail up the side of the hill. After that, we'll find some way into the house."
"Twenty feet straight up." said Kenny. "No problem."
----------
Meanwhile, Max and Sven showed up at the base and climbed out of the Ferret.
"Think there's anything else we can shoot?" asked Sven.
"I think so." said Max. "Probably some new troop movements."
"Yeah, I can definitely get some better shots from here." said Sven.
"Looks like they're working on something in that hangar." said Max as he looked at the Juggernaut.
Sven zoomed in on the Juggernaut, retracted his middle finger, and called "Freezeframe, on!"
His visor flashed yellow for an instant and he was presented with a technical scan of the Juggernaut.
"The troops." said Max. "That's what we came here for. Get a shot of them."
Sven looked at the mind-controlled troops, retracted his ring finger and pinkie, and called "Freezeframe, on!"
His visor flashed yellow for an instant and he was shown a medical scan of the troops. This time, he was able to do a more thorough scan.
Max then saw Marcus. He remembered it was him who almost killed Laura with his mask. "Sven, get a shot of that slimeball." he hissed.
Sven looked at Marcus and called "Freezeframe, on!"
His mask visor flashed yellow for an instant and he was given a shot of Marcus. Unfortunately, Marcus saw his visor flash.
"Hack, Slash, come with me." he ordered.
----------
Jeremy, Chris, and Kenny reached the top of the trail. "The house is just across this garden." said Jeremy. "Uh oh, didn't notice that camera."
"No problem." said Kenny. "Watch the birdie." He pointed to a bright red parrot and called "Noah, on!"
A series of green energy rings were projected from Kenny's mask towards the parrot. "Fly to the camera." he said. The parrot flew over to the camera and hovered directly in front of the lens.
"Great, we've got bird trouble." said Skull as he saw the parrot and nothing else on the security camera. "I'm going out to shoo the bird."
"What's the point?" asked Crossbones. "No one's tried anything yet. What are the odds someone is now?"
Skull stepped out and walked over to the parrot and waved it off. "Get outta here!" he yelled. "Stupid bird."
Chris jumped out of hiding and elbowed Skull in the back. Kenny grabbed him and dragged him into the house.
"Where's your friend?" asked Jeremy.
"I think he went upstairs to check on the prisoner." said Skull.
"Skull, what's going on?" asked Crossbones from upstairs. He managed to get a good view of the agents and his captured partner. Then, he saw the back of Chris' jacket. "You!" he yelled.
"Oh no." groaned Chris.
Crossbones vaulted off the second floor landing and landed on the couch. "You have some nerve showing up here!" he yelled.
"How do you even know it's me?" asked Chris.
"The logo on your jacket gave you up!" said Crossbones.
Chris looked over his shoulder. "Oops." he said.
"I've got a score to settle with you." said Crossbones.
"Bring it on." said Chris.
Crossbones walked towards Chris, performed an elbow thrust, a hand sweep, a palm strike, a forward kick, then an uppercut. He directed Chris towards him with his hand.
Chris gave a forward punch, a karate chop, an overhead strike, a roundhouse kick, and finally an X-block while walking towards Crossbones.
The two stared at each other for a second, then Crossbones threw a punch at Chris. Chris quickly blocked it and countered with a spin kick. Crossbones ducked the kick and jumped back up with a kick of his own.
"Yeah!" yelled Skull. "Wipe the floor with him!"
"This is gonna get messy!" said Kenny.
"Not if I find Gates." said Jeremy.
Jeremy ran to the stairs. Crossbones jumped away from Chris and did a spin kick to knock a vase in Chris' direction. Chris jumped, split his legs, and caught the vase as it passed between his legs.
Chris held the vase in his right hand as he landed and called "Breaker, on!" A wave of red energy flowed from his glove to the vase. He tossed it towards Crossbones.
Crossbones held up his hands and called "Chi, on!" A yellow ball of energy formed in his hands. The vase hit the energy ball, destroying both.
Upstairs, Jeremy looked around. "Now, if I were Gates, where would they hide me?" he asked. "Of course, the locked room."
He ran to the door with the lock on it and kicked it in. He entered the room and looked around for Gates. He probably should've looked over his shoulder. Gates was standing over him with a lamp. He swung the lamp towards Jeremy just as he noticed him.
"Gates! Wait!" yelled Jeremy.
Gates caught himself just in time. "Jeremy!" he said. "You came!"
"Chris is downstairs fighting with one of your guards!" said Jeremy. "We need to stop them from killing each other! You still have your retirement present?"
"It's in the bedroom." said Gates. "Come on!"
Jeremy and Gates ran to the bedroom next door. Gates went straight for the closet and took out a box. He opened the box and took out a mask.
"I hope this works." said Gates as he put on the mask. They ran for the stairs.
Chris jumped off the couch to try to perform a flying kick. Crossbones responded with a handstand kick. Chris was knocked out of the air, but was able to land on the nearby coffee table.
"You have to act now!" said Jeremy.
"I've got a clear shot." said Gates. "Authority, on!"
A series of blue energy rings projected from his mask and enveloped Skull and Crossbones. They looked at him nervously. "Get out of here now!" he ordered.
Skull and Crossbones ran for the door and out to the driveway.
"Thank goodness that's over." said Gates.
Chris jumped off the table. "Looks like we pulled off a rescue." he said.
"And it looks like we need to talk about something." said Jeremy.
----------
"We've got another turret over here." said Max.
"And some tripwires over here." said Sven.
"Looks like we can start organizing the raid." said Max. He turned around and ran right into Slash.
"Going somewhere?" asked Slash.
Hack snuck up behind Sven. "Nah, they're staying right here." he said.
"So, Sanchez sends in his spies to learn our Achilles' Heel." said Marcus as he walked over.
Max recognized him immediately.
----------
Begin flashback...
Marcus climbed out of the Rocket and called "Shockwave, fire!"
A blue fireball fired from his mask and hit the side of the Bear, knocking it over.
"Shockwave, fire!" called Marcus.
A blue fireball shot from his mask and flew straight towards the Dove. It hit the Dove and knocked it into the pond.
...end flashback.
----------
Max glared at Marcus and said "Haven't you done enough?" asked Max.
"Apparently not." said Marcus. "You're still alive. But I can fix that."
"Not just yet." said Max. He kicked Slash in the knee and scrambled away.
Sven hit Hack in the chest with his elbow and ran after Max.
"After them!" yelled Marcus.
Max and Sven hid in the forest. "They can't chase both of us." said Max.
"Ja." said Sven. "I'll run towards the fork in the road. You go for the Ferret."
"Sounds good to me." said Max. He ran for the car. Sven took off in the other direction.
Marcus, Hack, and Slash made it to the place where they split up. "I saw one of them going that way." said Marcus. "The other one's sure to go to the road where he's most likely parked. You two go after him."
Max ran up to the road and then to the Ferret. "Alright, I'm outta here."
Just as he tried to get the door open, Slash ran up behind him and tackled him. He then pulled Max away from the car and carried him back towards the road.
"You're in big trouble when we get you back to base." said Hack.
Max squeezed out of Slash's hold and ran back towards the trees. "Don't you mean IF you get me back to base?" he asked.
"Annoying squirt!" yelled Slash as he and Hack chased Max.
Max ran towards a tree and jumped up to the trunk. He then grabbed a branch and hauled himself into the tree.
"Where'd he go?" asked Hack as he stopped under the tree.
"I dunno." said Slash.
Just then, Max swung out of the tree and hit Slash in the back. Slash was knocked into Hack and the two fell to the ground. Max then punched Slash in the back, immobilizing him. He returned to the Ferret.
Sven continued to run along towards the fork in the road. Marcus was right on his tail. Suddenly, Sven tripped over a rock and fell.
Marcus walked up to him and said "This is where it ends."
Sven rolled onto his back to face Marcus. He then retracted his thumb and called "Freezeframe, fire!"
His mask visor flashed white.
Max drove to the fork in the road in the Ferret thinking "Please be there, Sven."
He reached the fork and stopped. He waited for a minute, then Sven ran out of the trees and jumped into the passenger seat.
"You okay?" asked Max.
"Just fine." said Sven, hyperventilating.
Max drove off. Just then, Hack and Slash ran out of the trees and watched them drive off.
"Just missed them!" yelled Slash.
"And where's Gilford?" yelled Hack.
"Here he comes." said Slash. Marcus was staggering out of the woods. He bumped into a tree, then tripped over a rock, then had to drag his way up the hill.
"Gilford, are you alright?" asked Hack.
"Hack, where are you?" asked Marcus as he reached around. "That shutterbug blinded me with his flash!"
----------
"You're joking, right?" asked Scooter.
"I wish." said Michael. "Unless my figures are off, which I doubt, this is a mind control weapon."
The Skyhawk and Roc pulled up. Jeremy, Gates, Chris, and Kenny climbed out of the vehicles.
"Mr. Gates!" said Scooter.
"Ah, Scooter's here too." said Gates.
"We all are." said Jeremy.
"J, you're not going to believe this." said Scooter.
"Darwood's weapon is a mind control ray." said Michael.
"I believe you." said Jeremy. "Gates told me about it."
"The Mind's Pencil is no more." said Gates. "At least we have that going for us."
"Gates told me about it." said Jeremy. "Darwood used it on the base personel...and his daughter Julie."
"If we can find some specs on the Mind's Pencil, maybe we can find a way to defeat it." said Michael.
"I've been trying to hack into the base computer, but the security systems are killer." said Scooter.
"Even with your skills in consideration, I'm not surprised." said Gates. "For obvious reasons, the security systems are the best we could get. They require three nine-letter passwords which I had to memorize."
"Mr. Gates, could you please help Scooter through those passwords?" asked Jeremy.
"Of course." said Gates.
"Chris, we have to talk." said Jeremy.
----------
In the Behemoth's trailer base, Scooter started to hack into the base computer.
"Maybe the base personel came out of their trances when the Pencil was broken." said Scooter.
"No, if they had, we wouldn't be planning a rescue operation." said Gates.
"Alright, I'm at the first password." said Scooter.
"It's nonsense." said Gates. "They did that so it would be harder to guess. It's E-F-I-L-A-T-E-G-T."
Scooter typed in the password. "It worked." he said. "What's next?"
"U-O-S-I-H-T-D-E-R." said Gates.
Scooter typed it in. "Alright, what's the last one?" he asked.
"U-G-I-F-U-O-Y-F-I." said Gates.
"I'm in." said Scooter. "Let's see what we can find."
----------
"Chris, who was that guy?" asked Jeremy.
"His name is Dennis Paulsen." said Chris. "He's an expert in five forms of kung fu and he's a former member of the World Styles Confederation. Former because of me."
"What do you mean?" asked Jeremy.
"We were engaged in a battle in Phoenix." said Chris. "Karate versus kung fu. Dallas versus Vegas. The match began well and honorable and stayed that way for two minutes. The match ended in controversy."
"How?" asked Jeremy.
"I turned to give him a roundhouse." said Chris. "I thought he'd block it, but he managed to counter with a punch. He went down. The referee called it a fair hit, but Paulsen disagreed saying it was too high as per the rules of the match."
"What happened then?" asked Jeremy.
"He had a very verbal disagreement with the management and promptly quit the World Styles Confederation." said Chris. "I decided to resign myself out of shame. I didn't feel right causing a man to resign his position like that."
"How did he identify you?" asked Jeremy.
"With this." said Chris as he turned his back, showing Jeremy his Team Banzai logo. "I always wore it."
"Will he give you up?" asked Jeremy.
"Oh, I hope not!" groaned Chris. "The WSC had a strict honor code. I don't know if he'll still abide by it."
"This talk is adjourned." said Jeremy. "You may leave."
"If you say so." said Chris.
"Hey, Chris." said Jeremy. "Was that hit too high?"
"Hey, the fight was going so fast, even I don't know." said Chris. "After the fracas, I just wanted to forget everything."
Michael ran over and said "Jeremy? Scooter wants to see you."
----------
"I found the Mind's Pencil in the facility's database." said Scooter. "Ready for this?"
"Go ahead." said Jeremy.
"The version that VENOM used was a less sophisticated system." said Scooter. "The broadcast signal and control signal were combined. When one went, the other went with it. This one is more complicated. The weapon we recovered was the broadcast signal. Thankfully, it's unlikely Darwood was able to create a clone in such short time and the prototype was the only one in existence. However, there is a separate control signal which is controlled by computer. We have to find that computer and deactivate it to free the troops from their trances."
"Why didn't the Pencil affect us when it was used?" asked Jeremy.
"The Pencil operates on a specific frequency which is filtered out by our masks." said Scooter. "The version used by VENOM had the same weakness."
"Do we necessarily have to shut down the computer?" asked Chris. "Can't we just blow it up or let you use your mask on it?"
"Can't risk damaging the minds of the base personel." said Scooter. "It's like a computer. Carefully shutting it down is like gently drifting off to sleep. Haphazardly yanking the plug is like knocking you out with a sledgehammer."
"Sorry I brought it up." said Chris.
"There's one other thing." said Michael. "This version of the Mind's Pencil has one capability that VENOM's didn't. With a few minor adjustments, those affected can be allowed to use firearms."
"I don't think Darwood's going to pass up that advantage." said Jeremy. "Does anyone know what kind of guns they use at the facility?"
Just then, Max and Sven returned.
"They might." said Rocky.
"Jeremy!" called Max. "We're back. Aw, man. You wouldn't believe what happened to us."
"What did you get?" asked Jeremy as the other agents came over.
"I'll show you." said Sven. He walked over to the side of the Dove and said "Freezeframe, on!"
The first image projected onto the ambulance was the technical scan of the Juggernaut.
"What's that?" asked Kenny.
"I dunno, but I'd hate to face it on the battlefield." said Liam.
"I think I saw it in the database." said Scooter. "I'll check on it as soon as we finish here."
"Next picture, Sven." said Jeremy.
Sven moved his thumb and switched to the next picture, the medical scan of the soldiers.
"We have confirmation." said Laura. "This kind of brain chemistry change can only be caused by some kind of sonic ray."
"I'm willing to bet it's the same frequency as the one used by the Mind's Pencil." said Michael.
"Armalite M-16s." said Rocky. "Powerful, but not powerful enough to pierce our armor."
"Next picture, Sven." said Jeremy.
Sven moved his thumb and brought up the picture of Marcus.
"Gilford!" yelled Gates.
"Wait, MARCUS Gilford?" asked Jeremy. "The man who shot Julie?"
"That's him!" growled Gates.
"So, he IS working with Darwood." said Jeremy. "This could be a problem."
"Why's that?" asked Caitlin.
"Marcus Gilford is a deadly assassin." said Jeremy. "He's believed to be responsible for the deaths of several important witnesses in the case of Malcolm Darwood. Said victims could have confirmed any relation between Darwood and Miles Mayhem."
"If he's that dangerous," said Sven as he moved his thumb "I must've lucked out."
Marcus' close-up came up.
"You encountered him and survived?" asked Gates. "You must be luckier than I thought."
"Okay, I'm working on a plan." said Jeremy. "Enzo, I want you to continue repairing the Bear and Dove."
"Si, si." said Enzo.
"Scooter, I want you to get your laptop ready." said Jeremy. "Also, research that thing we saw in the picture."
"Got it." said Scooter.
"Max, rest up." said Jeremy. "We're going to need you to infiltrate the facility."
"No problemo." said Max.
"That's all for now." said Jeremy. "I want you all to get ready for battle."
----------
Enzo crawled under the Dove and took a wrench to the transformation control unit.
Chris walked over to the side of the Roc and practiced his karate.
Scooter worked on his computer, looking for the vehicle in the picture.
Max leaned back against the Marlin to catch his breath.
Rocky checked his weapons.
----------
Scooter ran to Jeremy's staging area to find him leaning against a railing and talking to Enzo.
"You want me to break the news to Max or will you?" asked Enzo.
"I'll tell him." said Jeremy. "You can return."
Enzo walked back to the vehicles and passed Scooter.
"What was that about?" asked Scooter.
"Enzo couldn't fix the Bear." said Jeremy. "He needs replacement parts and we didn't bring any. Luckily, the Dove is working. What do you have to report?"
"I found that thing from the picture." said Scooter. "It's called the XM-130 Juggernaut. It was originally designed to be part of the original MASK team. It was rejected for being too large and requiring too much manpower to operate."
"So,Darwood intends toput it into action." asked Jeremy.
"Of course." said Scooter. "With Dr. Frankenstein's androids, the manpower problem is solved. And its size can definitely strike fear into enemy hearts. There's one other thing about it."
"And that is?" asked Jeremy.
"Look who designed it." said Scooter. "Bruce Sato."
"He might know how to defeat this thing." said Jeremy. "I'll contact him."
"Anything else?" asked Scooter.
"No, you can go." said Jeremy.
Scooter went back to his computer. Jeremy went to the communications array. He started to contact the design team, but had a brainstorm. Instead, he called Captain Jeffries.
"Agent Sanchez?" replied Jeffries who was in the middle of lunch.
"Captain Jeffries, how quickly can you get back to George Island?" asked Jeremy.
"In a couple of hours, I guess." said Jeffries. "What's up?"
"I think I might need you for the next battle." said Jeremy.
"Uh, you are aware the Bluebird has no weapons, right?" asked Jeffries.
"Doesn't matter." said Jeremy. "I'm counting on the size of the plane to do all the talking."
"I understand." said Jeffries. "Just say when and I'll come running."
"You got it." said Jeremy. "I'll call you when I need you."
Jeremy closed the communications channel and called the design team.
A few minutes later, he told the agents "Everybody, come here now. I have a plan."
----------
AN:Okay, I think this is shaping up to be a nice finale, which should be next chapter. Thanks for staying with this.
For this chapter's profiles, I'm giving details on MASK 2's doctors, doctor for people Laura Kennedy and doctor for cars Enzo Castaldi.
Enzo Castaldi
Allegiance:MASK 2
Position:Mechanic
Cover Job:Auto Mechanic
Birthplace:Venice
Mask:Torque (projects a twisting beam)
Vehicle Code Name:Marlin (Fiat Coupe/recon submarine)
Bio:Little is known about Enzo. What is known is that he was involved with a secret project of the Italian army which he never talks about. (Presumably, he's been sworn to secrecy.) Also, it's known that Enzo has an incredible sense of humor which tends to come out at opportune moments. Whatever the case, Enzo is still an excellent mechanic and a very good addition to the team.
Laura Kennedy
Allegiance:MASK 2
Position:Field Medic
Cover Job:Paramedic
Birthplace:Boston
Mask:Doctor (heals minor battlefield injuries)
Vehicle Code Name:Dove (Dodge Sprinter ambulance/medical unit)
Bio:Laura lost her father to a rare disease when she was sixteen. His death fueled her desire to become a doctor, which she decided to pursue on the west coast to get away from her family. During her career, she ended up saving the lives of a group of FBI agents, including Lawrence Gates. He offered her a position on the new MASK team, confident she would be chosen.
Thank you for reading. The thrilling conclusion is coming up next.
