Released (July 1, 2000)
The time has come. Our soon to be heroes will soon meet the man who will change thier Destinies. SoulSlayer shows no mercy. A trained killer. It's what he was born to do. He's arrived and nothing will ever be the same.
SoulSlayer: "The world shall know my name again. The being they refer to as Satan doesn't even hold a flame up to me. This All American City called Fresno is the perfect place for me to set up camp. I will hunt for these new Souls Of Power. Yes, yes, yes. Let's see. There is an old children's hospital. This is perfect. The Souls have no idea what they are in for."
{Meanwhile in San Francisco...}
Haven: "This was a great idea. Thanks for telling us about these forgotten tunnels."
Lugnut: "Just doing my part for the team. I feel close to everyone. I do miss my hometown. Oh well, there was nothing there for me anyways."
LaughWave: "You have proven yourself worthy of our trust and friendship. You are one of us."
Lugnut: "That means the world to me. I finally fit in somewhere. I always felt like a freak."
Mantrix: "I guess we all felt that way at one point. I wonder how many more Souls of Power are still out there waiting to be released or discovered."
PoleRider: "TiempoDios would know. He knows everything and doesn't even help us out."
Prizmix: "Hey! Don't be talking smack about Jimmie."
LadyUtopia: "Hasn't it occured to any of you that we haven't heard from him or any of the NecroSouls in a while?"
Mantrix: "Well... I wouldn't actually say that we haven't heard from any of them."
SnapShot: "What do you mean? You had a run in with one of the NecroSouls?"
Mantrix: "No.. I haven't.. I was referring to Priz's encounter with Arcoiris."
Prizmix: "Man! That's old news. I kicked that punk's butt!"
LadyUtopia: "Chill out Priz. It's not like we don't believe you."
Prizmix: "Look, loca, nobody told you to put your two seeds in my business. I am just getting nervous about things."
Mantrix: "I don't think you have been the same ever since TimeWeaver became TiempoDios."
Prizmix: "Do you think you have me figured out? Nobody knew me like he did. Not even you, Mantrix. Even though we grew up together. He will always be one of my best friends. Mantrix, you don't know what it's like to lose someone that you really cared about. I need to go for a walk! I'm out of here!"
Masquerade: "Sheesh! What's eating him?"
Haven: "None of us asked for this kind of life. It just happend to be this way. He's hurting. I don't know what I would do if I lose anymore family or friends. I'm not ready for any of that anytime soon."
Mantrix: "Enrique doesn't remember our childhood together. He always left me behind. He went out and got to see the world. I was never jealous of his and Jimmie's friendship. I just was never part of his life when he met Jimmie. Doesn't Enrique know that I have feelings too. I might not show them. I have them though."
Haven: "We all know you have a heart of gold. Enrique has been through some stuff that is foreign to us. Arcoiris took his powers away for the second time. I am not making excuses for his attitude, but we got to give him some room."
{With grief in his heart, Prizmix goes off on one of his famous little walks. Meanwhile at SFO.... SoulSlayer has arrived...}
SoulSlayer: "Aahhhh... Smell that ocean. Smell the crisp clean air. This city shall soon flow with rivers of blood. Blood of the host carriers of the Souls of Power! Let's see. I must do a Soul Exploration. I know those Star Souls are here somewhere. *SOUL HUNT SCANNER* These fools don't have a chance!"
{Hours later...}
Prizmix: "Hey everyone! I'm back. A man could get lost trying to find these tunnels."
LadyUtopia: "No kidding. They all look alike."
Prizmix: "I just want to apologize for my behavior. I just wish I could hear from TiempoDios. I know he's not supposed to interfere with destiny. I just miss him."
Haven: "Don't forget what he said. He will come to give you guidence. Enrique,.. Don't forget, we all miss him."
Mantrix: "It's not cool when you go off on us like that."
Prizmix: "I'm so sorry. I will try harder to control my anger. Next time just slap me."
SoulSlayer: "Time to die! *SOUL EXTRACTION* Say goodnight Gracie!"
SnapShot: "What the heck! AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!"
LaughWave/Haven: "SnapShot!!!!!! What did you do to him?"
Masquerade: "Who are you?! What on Earth are you?!"
SoulSlayer: "His soul is mine! I am here to collect your souls. All your souls shall be mine. I already have this one you call SnapShot. I need one more to call it a day!"
Haven: "You killed him? Oh no! You killed Randy!"
SoulSlayer: "SoulSlayer is the name. It's what I do. And you're next pretty lady! *SOUL EXTRACTION* Hasta la vista!"
PoleRider: "Oh no you don't! I'll protect.. AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!"
SoulSlayer: "Oh bother. I so did want that Supreme soul of Zinax's. I guess this one of PoleRider will just have to do for now. Don't look so scared Star Souls. I shall be back for the rest of you later. Gotta' catch you all! Bye! HaHaHaHaHa!"
Prizmix: "Oh no. No. No! This is not happening! What just happend? I froze! I froze!"
Haven: "Oh my Gawd! He killed them both. She risked her life for mine! How many more must perish! What has to happen? Who is this mad man?"
That's the question on everyone's mind. How many more shall perish. Follow this story as it crosses over into Dream Souls #4. SoulSlayer meets up with the Dream Souls. Who's souls will he capture? No one is safe. Find out what happens in two weeks. Part 2 of 6.
