Tip number 1 - If you are going to have a secret base in the Antarctic, make sure its really secret
Tip number 2 - Make sure its well defended enough to, at the very least, say, TELL SOMEONE ITS BEING TAKEN OVER BY OBLIVION.
Yeah, so, the Birds of Prey met Oblivion, and it was kinda chatty. It welcomed us in, told us it was too late to do anything, that is was going to "rebirth" itself, basic Borg stuff. Resistance is futile, your distinctiveness will be added to our own, that kinda thing (what!?, I saw First Contact :-). Oh, and it didn't want us calling in anyone to let them know we had found it. Which was really kinda telling that, yeah, it could be stopped, and all that. So, in we went. We did get a message off first, but with the whole YPRBJ thing going on, we were kinda on our own. And, Oblivion has a new playmate. Cyborg Supes. That evil guy that showed up during that very confusing "Is Superman dead?" time 20 years back. So, it was Cyborg Supes, Red Tornado, Cyborg, the bouncy robot head guy, and Robot Man, versus little old us. So, ouch! Yeah, not much fun. We took out Cyborg Supes, cause we had just gotten back from New Krypton, and had all these neat Kryptonite toys with us. And that is when things started to go bad. There was something happening where we took CS out, and the rest of them got stronger. No fun. I was fighting a very defensive battle, trying not to get hit, and making the times I could get a good hit off count, but, we very nearly lost. We lasted just long enough to take away the power source from the SECRET ANTARCTIC BASE that we were making sure was "secure". Yeah, not so much. Taking the power source, and escaping forced Obi to rebirth itself without the 30 people and the power source it was planning on taking along. So, it left the people there to die, took the Borged heroes, and merged and became something, different. It just looks like a humanoid shaped, 8ft tall puddle of nanites. I have no idea what happened to the Borged heroes. Hopefully, they are still in there somewhere, and can be saved. Pray for them. We went back and rescued the folks left behind, but who knows what Obi did to them before leaving. I hope they are ok.
Not much else to report. Either I'm really stressed, or my body is changing, or both. I've been wanting to do more and more during the crisis, and I haven't been sleeping much. Or eating much. In fact, the down time I'm being told I have to take, I usually can't sleep. So, I sculpt, or read, or just meditate. I'm down to about an hour of sleep a night, if that, and I'm just eating maybe a meal a day. Sometimes not even that, just a power bar, or official Justice League food supplements (basically a better tasting power bar :-). Haven't seen Superboy much, with the whole New Krypton thing, and the YPRBJ's. Maybe he's one of "those" guys. :-)
Cya!
PS - OMFG! This is getting silly. Some morons decided to nuke the "secret" base. Literally. So we have minutes to get the people out of here. AND, the prison transfer they were hoping to do is still happening. I'm going to have to speak to Oracle about this, cause if this is the organization she is working for, I may be in the wrong place. I gotta go. We gotta go stop the plane with, well, hopefully you never have to find out who was on the plane....
