Captured

[jla_extras]

Freddie feels the dull ache of his impaired legs as he awakens. Last he remembered he had been in space on a personal vision quest. The rest seemed like a disjointed haze. Green fire and..Sabbac! Now it began to return to him

"I'm afraid there won't be any speaking from you child. The Power of Shazam is here for my purposes, not yours." croons a menacing voice.

Amid the floating debris that Freddie finds himself bound to comes the Dark Lord of Chaos, Mordru.

Touching his hand to Freddie's forehead, arcs of lighting arc and surge about the young man's flesh as he cries out silently in pain.

"Yes, I think that will do nicely." he purrs.

"We can begin, but first I think we should acquire the last of the Marvel brood."

"Why?" comes a voice that sounds like an iron grate scraping concrete.

"I thought all you needed where these three? Why the girl? Not that I mind the chance of sampling such innocent fare, but isn't this just a delay"?

Lounging like a great demonic hunting cat over the rock that Freddie is bound to, Sabbac carves tiny designs in Freddie's shoulders with his deadly claws. Freddie's eyes although pained and anguished, remain resolute in his defiance of their captors.

"Ah my friend, it pays to cover all your bases. With Mary Marvel still free, Hector Hall and his ridiculous society have a possible touch stone to locate Mary's fellow champions. I was mistaken to take Nabu's apprentice lightly last time, I shall not make the same mistake twice."

He rubs his chin.
"You are correct however, I shall remain here and begin the ritual to bring our last ally back from his banishment. Shazam's error has left me in control of this place and I shall make expedient use of the Marvels.

I trust you and Eclipso can manage one little girl?"
