An undisclosed US airbase - President Stark addressing the bounty hunters.
The President’s request for bounty hunters had met an unexpected success. Rallying a band of brave warriors, vigilantes and criminals alike…All with the hope to be rewarded the 10 million dollar bounty placed upon Ziah’s head. “I thank you for all for dedicating your time to this cause,” Stark spoke, his words confident and composed, calmly addressing the band of hunters before him as they watched his every move, “if you are here, you have accepted the dangers of this mission and accept that some of you may not return. But…For all who survive, be this mission a success, will receive a 10 million dollar bounty and possibly, a presidential pardon for past crimes…” Having finished the formalities Stark threw down a metallic disk onto the floor as a blue-hued, almost transparent screen was protected into the air.
He pointed to the screen, “We have located Miss Darksong and tracked her down to what seems to be an ancient and abandoned abode. The area is covered in molten rock and is very volatile. Radar has detected many signatures which imply that the area may be harboring weaponry and a foreign substance, possibly metal, which may be used against us if they are indeed weaponry. We are on her home turf…” His face was stern, knowing the dangers of this mission and glad he was not actively partaking, “…Do not expect this to be easy” momentarily pausing, Stark stepped onto the metal disc as a swirling purple ball turned into a blue portal, “This portal directly leads into the location…It is a way one route. The only way in and out is through here, if you get lost while engaging Ziah we won’t be sending out a rescue party…You know the terms,” Nodding, Stark smiled towards each and every bounty hunter…Warrior, vigilante, criminal and hero – “Good luck” stepping aside and allowing the hunters access to the portal, Stark saluted, awaiting the results, hoping for the best yet expecting the worst…Ziah was no slouch, and she was very, very dangerous.
On the other side of the portal
The ancient air was saturated was the pungent smell of molten rock and lava spewing from the crevices and underbelly of this archaic location. An ancient, long since extinct civilization’s underworld which had been buried here for thousands of years. Full of timeless artifacts and exotic weapons of war forged through battle by the pre-historic humans who once thrived within the metallic underworld, Ziah was somewhere…Hidden, waiting, and almost certainty scheming.
