Synopsis:
In the early morning hours, Tara broods on a Florida beach,
still stinging emotionally from her encounter with Rad. She
is joined by Nightveil, who tells Tara about Alizarin
Crimson's threat before capturing Tara herself. Back on
Jungle Island, a bitter Janis Lawson, fed up with Tara's
neglect of Jungle Island and inattention to her, takes off
in a Fremont craft to find and confront her. At the Fremont
Building, TC's staff, including Roger Brant, are caught in
the chaos as the Femforce seemingly lay waste to the
building despite the Shade's efforts to intervene. In
reality, the team that was apparently killed in its own
blast were really the robot Femforce created by Dr.
Pretorius, who is furious with Crimson for duping him into
letting her use then destroy the robots instead of having
them serve as long-term Femforce replacements. In Crimson's
nether-realm, the sorceress toys with the captured Colt,
Tara, and She-Cat before sending Claudette back to the Earth
reality. She-Cat is puzzled over being granted her freedom
until she makes the horrifying discovery that her captivity
has weakened her resistance to Sehkmet's influence and
accelerated her possession by the cat-demon. In her
writhing, tortured state she is discovered by a young girl
whom Sehkmet plans to make its next victim.
