Synopsis for 1st story
Battalion is chained to a bomb hidden in a van parked outside a U.S. government building. Earlier that day, he had taken the day off to visit an uncle in Constitution, Alabama. Members of the nativist Mamba Team Militia recognized him, abducted him, beat him, and chained him to the bomb. Battalion comes to and uses his telekinesis to free himself and disarm the bomb. He then runs down and subdues two militiamen on the street before returning to their safehouse and taking down the rest of the group. One member tries to escape in a car, but Battalion jumps on it and causes it to crash. Impaled, the driver gets out and fights him until Battalion stabs him with a metal rod. The group’s leader is arrested, convicted, and later dies in prison, but Battalion’s uncle is forced to leave Constitution. In addition, the local Congressman introduces a bill to forbid the UN from acting in the U.S.
