    Whittaker passed the drinks over. “Anyway, it seems that he’s got himself into a bit of bother,” he continued. “A very serious bit of bother.” “Bother?” repeated Kendall. Whittaker heaved a sigh. “Yes you know,” he replied. “Trouble.” Kendall nodded. “Oh trouble, I get you,” he said. “So what sort of bother are we talking about?” Whittaker took another drink. “Well it’s a case of murder I’m afraid.” “Murder,” repeated Mollie. Whittaker said nothing, but simply nodded agreement. Another murder, thought Kendall. Just what I need. “Just stop right there, for a moment, and rewind will you,” he said. “Then let’s have it from the top, slowly.” ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Peter John Borys.

    I glanced at the other passengers, then back at her. "This your only bag?" She nodded. "You got something in there fit for riding?" She nodded again. "Put it on, you're going with me." She turned and went behind the stagecoach. One of the passengers, a plump elderly woman with a shrill voice and didn't seem to mind using it yelled, "You can't take her!" "She can stay if she wants to," I told her. She returned shortly wearing a man's outfit. It only accentuated her curves. I helped her into the saddle. "Move your foot so's I can get up behind you." I slid my boot into the stirrup and swung up behind her. The top of her head rested under my chin. I inhaled deeply. "It's been too long," I thought. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Aliases: Aminia TwainAge: 31Height: 5†4”Weight: 130Hair Color: Mousey BrownEye Color: HazelBirthplace: Kansas CityPower Source: Multi-dimensional Resurrection, In-depth knowledge of heroesFirst Appearance: Freedom Five Annual #3They. . . didn't save me."The darkness closed in around her, pressing, crushing, choking. Aminia felt blind panic, like shadowed hands squeezing her desperately thudding heart up again her ribs and then-- nothing. Darkness. Silence. And one thought: "They didn't save me."Suddenly, the light hit her eyelids with searing brightness as she snapped into life with a jolt. She gasped for air. "Ms. Twain? Are you alright?" Dr. Stinson asked quickly."Hiccups?" Mr. Parsons asked in his usual, genial manner. She felt her stomach churn - how did she ever find that phony charisma so charming? She smiled weakly and nodded, feigning another hiccup, before excusing herself from the meeting for a cup of water. Shutting the door behind her, she melted, stunned, on the other side of the wall. The meeting continued on within the room behind her - they didn't even notice her absence.What happened? Her eyes darted around the familiar headquarters of the Freedom Five, but not everything seemed like how she'd left it. Things were different. She was different. She had died. The darkness had lifted to unveil a changed world. Or perhaps, perhaps only she had changed? She went to the sink to fill the "World's Finest Assistant" mug Dr. Stinson gave her three years before they let her die. This one's handle had yet to crack.This world was most definitely different than the one she left, but no difference cast such a stark contrast as the difference she felt inside. No longer was she the devoted, sheepish secretary who alerted the Freedom Five to where trouble emerged, who placed orders for Tachyon's many pairs of new footwear, who copied memos from the President, who washed sweaty spandex uniforms. Now, she was awake.Aminia straightened up her jacket and opened the door to return to the job she perfected in her previous life. No longer would she skip date night to remove every fleck of red dust from their precious equipment. Nor would she lose sleep worrying about the calls she would make to loved ones with bad news after a battle. For never again would she shed a tear for the Freedom Five. No. For now, all she heard amid the cheer of the grateful crowds and the praise of the adoring public was that one final thought. They had a choice - me, their devoted servant, who gave EVERYTHING . . . or five total strangers."They didn't save me.""Can they save themselves?""

    Although many denied it, a giant ocean liner was dying. The superstitious nodded their heads, knowing her fate had already been sealed.

Penny it is.”“How much time do I have?”“Well, it is eight weeks until Christmas, so keep track of the day, and on the 23rd, head home.”Penny nodded. “I can hardly wait to feel what it is like to be alone in the human world.”Ru grinned. “Then, stop talking and get going. The sooner you are on your way, the sooner you can begin your new experiences.”Penny nodded and pressed the concentrated magical snowflake between her breasts. In a moment, she went from the workshop to the human world, and she was standing in front of a huge machine. Her eyes went wide and someone called out, “Rancer! Get your ass in that machine. The highways aren’t going to clear themselves.”With a grin, she climbed the ladder and situated herself i ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kathryn LaPlante.
