Becky Rockler rubbed the bridge of her nose taking in all the information Stillwell just gave her.

“Homelander has convinced most of the superheroes community to takeover the government for Vought?” Becky said before looking at the Team Titanic members who were told of the plan by Homelander himself.

“We thought it was all part of the plan. Homelander said that Alicorn is also apart of it and would be sending a magical army to help,” Jimmy the One said.

“Stillwell get on the phone and make some calls, if we move fast enough we can stop this before it’s too late to stop it,” Becky said.

“No it’s too late for that,” Regina Dentata who has been watching the news of the destroyed gate but breaking news cut that off. On the screen superheroes are invading Washington DC, attacking the Pentagon and the Whitehouse.

“Looks like there is only one thing to do now. I’m getting the team,” Becky said as she takes out her phone and alerts the Superdupers.

“And what would that be?” Stillwell asks.

“Me and the other Superdupers are going to go and help to put a stop to this mess,” Becky said.

“You’re going to Washington?” Bradley asked.

“Yes and…,” Becky stop as she reads the text message she just gotten. “Trixie just texted me that, Starlight just escape from The Seven HQ. She and Queen Maeve tried to leave but Homelander stop them. Queen Maeve threw her out of the base and the base crash during her fight with Homelander.”

“Oh god,” Bradley said.

“Well it’s clear that Homelander must have been the one who destroyed the portal. Alicorn is the only one who can challenge him,” Becky said.

“Is there anyway to contact her?” Stillwell ask and thought of the backup plan to deal with Homelander. (1)

“Already did but there’s no answer, she must be dealing with the destruction on her side,” Becky said leaving the room.

From another rooftop having been listening in, Frenchman and Female relay everything they heard back to HQ.

The Boys HQ -

“What do we do now?” Hughie ask Butcher and Mothers Milk.

“M.M. you empty out the vault, and I do mean everything. Hughie you grab the potions and gear that Alicorn gave us, the time to use them is now,” Butcher said.

“Everything? Even the Homelander ones?” Mother’s Milk ask.

“Especially those. If he wants to takeover we’re going to air out all of his dirty laundry,” Butcher said and turns to Hughie. “Grab the stuff and meet me on the roof.”

“Ok,” Hughie said going to the large fridge that house the potions Alicorn had given Butcher months ago.

Inside the fridge Hughie grab the already mixed potions. After careful testing of the potions and mixing them together, they managed to create some mixtures that has helped them now and than. Like mixing the Violet potion that grants speed and the Pink potion that increases intelligence, the one who drank it could not only move fast but also think as fast, so that their minds be able to react as fast as they’re moving.

Hughie mixed up something he calls, the works. Mixed with 5 of the potions to make whoever drinks it be able to go toe to toe with the strongest supers. (2)

Red - Enhance, when drunk with another potion will enhance the effect or make it last longer.

Violet - Speed, increase the running and reaction speed.

Purple - Power, increase the strength of the user.

Black - Immunity, makes the drinker immune to the effects of heat, cold, lightning, toxic environments, and poisons.

Brown - Defense, increase the amount of damage a user can take.

The Works potion last about half an hour give or take before wearing off on its own. Each of the potions are held in a small plastic bottle, Hughie grabbed 4 of them just in case. He went over to the safe and unlock it revealing the magic items that Alicorn also gave them after the big reveal that everything she said about herself was real.

Belts of strength that increase the strength of the user by 5 times the strength of the wearer.

Rings that creates a magic shield around the wearer.

Amulets that makes the wearer immune to all heat.

Bracelets that increase endurance and stamina.

Then there are the specialized cartridges for specialized guns. The comics and still a that have Becky Rockler in them where she’s part of the action has her using a flare gun that fires magic bullets. Ranging from incendiary, armor piercing and high explosive rounds that can be found in military. To ice rounds, glue rounds, different types of gas bullets, lightning rounds, and other types of shells that use magic. The shells are kept in shotgun shell cases and are color coded. Hughie grabbed two flare like guns and two cases that each held 100 shells each that were already sorted out for use.

Loading it all up into a suitcase, Hughie left the office. Leaving Mothers Milk uploading all the files The Boys have on the superheroes up to the web and news sites. Soon word will get out showing what the superheroes are really like, and the downfall of them as a business model will go down too.

Reaching the roof, Hughie found Butcher standing next to a tied up and has a bag on his head that’s dripping with blood.

“You told me you didn’t want to do any of the rough stuff anymore. But what we’re going to be doing, I need you to do the job that needs to be done and if this doesn’t do it, then nothing will,” Butcher said pulling off the bag from the man’s head.

The man bond and gagged A-Train, who killed Hughie’s girlfriend Robin.
