And now Regalia has turned Prof, his closest ally, into a dangerous enemy. David knew Profs secret, and kept it even when Prof struggled to control the effects of his Epic powers. But facing Obliteration in Babilar was too much. Once the Reckoners leader, Prof has now embraced his Epic destiny. Hes disappeared into those murky shadows of menace Epics are infamous for the world over, and everyone knows theres no turning back... But everyone is wrong. Redemption is possible for Epics--Megan proved it. Theyre not lost. Not completely. And David is just about crazy enough to face down the most powerful High Epic of all to get his friend back. Or die trying.

IVE witnessed the fearsome depths.

I was in Babilar, Babylon Restored. Formerly New York City. I stared into the burning red star known as Calamity, and knewwith no uncertaintythat something inside me had changed.

The depths had claimed me as one of their own. And though Ive pushed them back, I still bear their hidden scar.

They insist that they will have me again.

THE sun peeked over the horizon like the head of a giant radioactive manatee I - photo 5

THE sun peeked over the horizon like the head of a giant radioactive manatee. I crouched, hidden in a tree of all places. Id forgotten how weird the things smell.

We good? I whispered over the line. Instead of using mobiles, we were relying on old radios wed rigged to work with headsets. The audio snapped and popped as I spoke. Primitive technology, but essential for this job.

Wait a sec, Megan said. Cody, you in position?

Sure am, crackled the reply, laced with a calm Southern drawl. If anyone tries to sneak up on you, lass, Ill put a bullet up his nose.

Ew, Mizzy said over the line.

Well move in five, I said from my perch. Cody had called the contraption I was using a tree stand, which was really a glorified camp chair strapped some thirty feet up the trunk of an elm. Hunters had used them back in the day for hiding from game.

I put my Gottschalka sleek, military-style assault rifleto my shoulder and sighted through the trees. Normally, in this sort of situation Id be sighting on an Epic: one of the super-powered individuals who terrorized the world. I was a Reckoner, same as my team, dedicated to bringing down dangerous Epics.

Unfortunately, life for the Reckoners had stopped making sense about two months ago. Our leader, Prof, was an Epic himselfand had been caught in a rivals intricate plot to find a successor. Consumed by his powers, he had left Regalias empire in Babilar, but had taken with him her hard drives, complete with notes and secrets. We intended to stop him. And that led me here.

To a large castle.

Seriously. A castle. Id figured those were just in old movies and foreign countries, yet here one was hidden in the woods of West Virginia. And despite the modern metal gates and high-tech security system, this place looked like it had been around since long before Calamity appeared in the skylichen covered the stonework, and vines twisted up one of the weathered walls.

Pre-Calamity people had been weird. Awesome tooevidence: castlebut still pretty weird.

I looked away from my scope and glanced at Abraham, who was hiding in a nearby tree. I could pick him out only because I knew exactly what to look for. His dark outfit blended well into the dappled shades of morning, which wasour informant saidthe best time to assault this particular location: Shewbrent Castle, also known as the Knighthawk Foundry. The worlds primary source of Epic-derived technology. Wed used their weapons and tech to fight Steelheart, then Regalia.

Now we were going to rob them.

Everyone have their mobiles off? I asked over the line. Batteries out?

Youve asked that three times already, David, Megan replied.

Check anyway.

They all gave the affirmative, and I took a deep breath. So far as we knew, we were the last cell of Reckoners. Two months in and we still had no sign of Tia, which meant she was probably dead. That left me in chargethough Id gotten the job by default. Abraham and Cody had laughed when Id asked if they wanted it, while Mizzy had gone stiff as a board and almost started hyperventilating.

Now we were putting my plan in motion. My crazy, foolhardy, incredible plan. Honestly, I was terrified.

My watch buzzed. Go time.

Megan, I said into my radio, youre up.

On it.

I shouldered my rifle again, peering through the trees toward where Megan would launch her assault. I felt blind. With my mobile, I could have tapped into Megans view to follow her attack, or I could have at least brought up a local map and watched my team represented as blips. Our mobiles, however, had been built and distributed by Knighthawkwho also maintained the secure network they ran on. Using those to coordinate an attack on Knighthawks own installation seemed about as smart as using toothpaste for salad dressing.
