Synopsis for 1st story
Glory is working in her Washington, D.C. apartment when Jagger bursts in through a window asking for help. Jagger tells her about tracking Geist to Paris only to find Bloodstrike beat him to it. After a brief scuffle on the Eiffel Tower, Geist teleported away. Jagger explained his history with Geist to Bloodstrike, and the two agreed to team up. They met with a local source and learned Geist had been contracted to steal an artifact from the Louvre. Geist had just acquired it, a gem called the Tear of Isis, when they caught him. In the ensuing fight, Bloodstrike severed one of Geistās hands, and Jagger tackled Geist just as he teleported away. They separated mid-teleport, and Jagger materialized in D.C. weeks later. Glory tells Jagger he can stay until he is ready to resume searching for Geist, but Jagger shows her that he has the Tear of Isis and expects Geist will come to him. Aboard the Darkness, Colonel Bravo and Link intend to recruit Bloodstrike to their cause and force Gunther to take them to him. The Experts release Bloodstrike from his regeneration chamber, revealing him to be Cabbot Stone. Hearing his real name, Bloodstrike at last remembers who he is.
