Maelstrom could only remember one thing about his past life. At some point before he received his powers, he had worked in the lab of a scientist. A scientist by the name of Dr. T. O. Morrow. Dr. Morrow was mostly known for his expertise in robotics and mechanical sciences, but for a brief period of time he had also dabbled in genetics. It was during this time that he had hired Maelstrom to work as his chief assistant. Somehow, the young man had wound up agreeing to take part in some kind of experiment...
But that was all he could recall. He had no idea if Dr. Morrow was still alive or if he was even ultimately responsible for granting him his powers. All him knew was that confronting him was the best possible choice at this point.
With the Squad by his side, Maelstrom ventured out to a remote corner of the American Northeast, where Morrow's lab had once occupied a prime bit of land on the Atlantic coast. They found the location largely deserted, but Maelstrom still noticed that some of the lights were on in the main building.
"What should we do? I'd rather not set off any alarms or alert the police."
"Give me ten minutes. I'll find a way in, mate."
"We don't have that kind of time. We need to get in now."
"What about a tunnel? A secret entrance?"
"The only one I can think of is a small door that goes through the main entrance. But only the lab animals were supposed to use it."
"I may have an idea. Stand back."
The Enchantress's coat and hat flew over Deadshot's head as the sorceress whispered a spell to herself.
Dropping to all fours, her body began to shift. Her black hair turned to fur, a tail emerged, hands and feet became paws, and her elfish face transformed into that of a cat. The now feline-Enchantress meowed at the rest of the Squad.
"Oh, oh, can you show me how to do that, honey?"
"Now listen to me carefully. The main lab is just a few levels down. Try to avoid making any sort of noise. I mean, you are a cat, right? Cats don't make sound."
Before he could finish, the Enchantress had already slipped through the little door.
