The Protectorate's heaviest hitters combine forces to exterminate C.L.A.S.H. because of the recent wave of terror attacks. Elsewhere, two new C.L.A.S.H. members break into prison seeking new recruits but instead discover a horrible conspiracy, one that left unchallenged, spells permanent enslavement -- or worse -- for mankind. Meanwhile, Procyon uncovers a traitor within his own ranks and a battle of super-humans erupts that may ultimately decide the planet's future.
