Agent Miki awoke, moaning softly as her eyes adjusted to ceiling lights and the blurry figure standing over her. The fingers shaking her cheeks focused the phantom into Lady Raquel.
"Where...?" asked Miki, her head beginning to ache.
"Welcome to the Magnifying Room, Agent Miki! And you, too, Power Princess!"
"Untie us, Raquel!!" Power Princess, already conscious, yelled.
"Why would I do that?" Lady Raquel gloated at the super heroines struggling to free themselves from the ropes that bound them to a long table.
"What have you planned for us?" demanded Agent Miki.
"Turn your eyes to the large magnifying glass suspended between yourselves and the skylight!" Lady Raquel knelt beside her long time arch enemy Power Princess. "It is now 11:40 in the morning. The sun will reach its apogee through that window above us. When that happens, the intense light rays of the noon sun will be concentrated by this specially designed magnifying glass, creating a laser beam. As the sun moves on its course, so will the laser, with you and Miss Miki..."
"Agent Miki!" insisted Miki.
"Yeah, whatever!...you two will be in the direct path of the laser beam!"
"You bitch, Raquel!" Power Princess shouted.
"Oh, such hurtful language from the duo committed to virtue and the punishment of evil doers!" Lady Raquel pulled a switch close to the exit, moving the magnifying glass into place. "Looks like this duo is about to become a quartet! I hate to...split!..ladies, because parting is such sweet sorrow!"
Lady Raquel laughed sinisterly and went out the exit.
Max peaked around the corner in time to see Lady Raquel walk from the Magnifying Room. Standing at the entrance was Gwen.
Glancing back to the dark end of the hallway, Max checked the two Funjin Corporation female security guards, unconscious and bound securely. Then Max considered how to take Gwen out the situation. He could use his last tranq dart, but he may need it while making an escape. The only alternative was to rush Gwen and deliver a neck chop ko.
Gwen is a nice girl, he decided, for a Sisterhood of Evil agent and she's a great fuck, so Max went easy on her.
"OOOHHH!" the sudden sting in her lower calf made Gwen blurt. Then she was light headed and very happy. Gwen barely felt the cold marble of the floor smack her in the face.
Max quickly pulled the empty dart from Gwen's leg and pressed the sleeping girl's palm onto the electronic door ID scanner. When the entrance "whooshed" open, Max gently placed Gwen in a corner, kissed her affectionately and ran inside the Magnifying Room.
"Max!!" both women yelled out at once. Already the sun was in the skylight, moving the laser beam inexorably toward Power Princess.
"Max??" they asked each other in exasperated confusion.
"I'll explain later! We need to get both of you free!" Removing a small, sharp knife from his pocket, Max rapidly cut at the ropes holding the crime fighters in place.
"How do you know Power Princess?" Miki demanded, more annoyed than surprised.
"Are you with Miki, also, Max?"
"Well, yes, I've been involved with both you ladies at the same time!" admitted Max as he pulled the ropes from Power Princess' legs. "And it the happiest I've ever been in a relationship, to be honest..."
When the last rope fell away, Power Princess leaped from the table as the laser nearly nicked her thigh. Removing her own mini laser device from her utility belt, Power Princes freed Miki from the laser's path.
"Start talking Max!" ordered Miki, getting in her lover's face.
"We need to get out now," Max urged. "We can fight about this later!"
As they moved to the exit, the door whooshed open and there stood Lady Raquel, Cathy and two security guards.
"Max Haig, how nice to see you!" Raquel said, pointing a gun at his chest. "I just found Agent Gwen resting outside. I was wondering how she got in that condition, you feckless bastard!"
Before Max could respond, Power Princess broke in. "I know all about the Mabuse computer virus!"
Raquel furrowed her brows unhappily. "Really? That means I have to kill you first!"
Agent Miki leaped forward, kicking the gun from Raquel's hand. Cathy and the guards surged forward.
Max grabbed Cathy by the arm and flung her across the room. She smashed the table to pieces when she landed. Power Princess and Agent Miki fought the guards, exchanging punches until the female security officers lay sprawled on the ground, out cold.
As Lady Raquel reached for her pistol, Power Princess kicked it away and yanked her to her feet.
Immediately she grabbed Raquel's right arm and twisted it behind the bad girl's back.
"Where is Professor Rabor?"
"With the other scientists!" sneered Raquel. "Go to hell! I'll tell you nothing!"
"Are you sure, Lady Raquel?" asked Miki, holding a small spray can to Lady Raquel's face. She fired a jet of pink gas under the villain's nose.
Lady Raquel tried to pull away and then agged into Max's arms. She nearly went completely to sleep, but remembered what a shinny, cotton candy day it was.
"Lollipops..." Raquel murmured.
"Where are the scientists being held?" asked Power Princess.
"Funjin Corporation has a research and development center in Los Angeles," Raquel whispered happily. "They're putting the finishing touches on the computer virus right now..."
"Will the Mabuse virus drain all the financial accounts in the world if it is released?"
Raquel laughed slowly, like an exhausted child. "Of course..."
"When will the virus be activated?" Power Princess asked.
"Not...gonna..tell.."
Lady Raquel went into deep sleep. Max let her fall on the floor. "We need to get back to Justice Force headquarters and regroup!" Power Princess said.
A loud "oooohhh" rose from the other side of the room. Cathy had sat up amind the destroyed table and rubbed her head groggily. "Wha ... happened?"
Max darted behind her and urged Cathy to go back to sleep. His judo neck chop sent the girl back to floor, peacefully asleep.
"All right, now let's go!" he said as they made for the door.
"Where...?" asked Miki, her head beginning to ache.
"Welcome to the Magnifying Room, Agent Miki! And you, too, Power Princess!"
"Untie us, Raquel!!" Power Princess, already conscious, yelled.

Cool action piece, with all kinds of colorful pleasures... First and foremost, the magnifying glass laser peril was great, a sexy spin on 007's troubles with Goldfinger back in '64. Raquel's sleepy responses were also classic: nobody taps the unconscious return to childhood (lollipops and cotton candy) better than you! As mentioned, I thoroughly enjoy the serialized aspect of this story, with every chapter offering some fights, knock-outs, clever perils and fun character bits. Keep 'em coming!
