*Runaway children are being found dead in the gutter. That's not something new alas.
but when the superhero known as Major Impact visits a shelter for the homeless destiny takes an unexpected turn: the despicable monster choosing these ripe young lambs for his spiritual slaughter has decided he's developed a taste for the choicest of mutton...the Major himself!
Recurrent nightmares leave Major Impact questioning himself and as those self doubts increase in number so to do the mistakes he begins to make.When your job is crime fighting that can cost lives.
As the hero sinks further into depression,his colleagues within the government sanctioned superhero affiliation that is The World Espionage Bureau ( W.E.B. ) refuse to look the other way. Tomfoolery takes a back seat for the super-scientific Sonic as he seeks a cure for his best friend, the ethereal entity that is Shade seeks a logical reason behind the whole mysterious affair, and Amethyst and the Lady Zonta bide their time, each with their own personal agenda, waiting to see which way the cruel wind blows.
All to soon they find what they are looking for and then the true nightmare begins.Through trials and tribulations they journey to the very heart of evil, giving all that they have in the name of friendship. Could anyone do less? Perhaps, when there's a shape-changing soul-sucking Demon waiting for you at the end of an inter-dimensional tunnel!
