Description
Killraven and his freemen, along with Mint Julep and her freewomen, fight their way through the catacombs underneath the White House, which is now the headquarters of the Martian invaders. In his command post, the High Overlord receives reports from the sensor-matronics system: several humans are in the catacombs. He calls Abraxas, who is at the slave market at the Lincoln Memorial, on the vis-com system and tells him to capture Killraven. Abraxas orders Sabre to take his Cavaliers to the catacombs. The freepersons exchange anecdotes at their New Year's "party," but they are rudely interrupted by Sabre, who wings Killraven in the arm. Sabre marches his captives away. Rattack and his army of rats arrive soon afterward. The rats catch the scent of Killraven's blood and trail him. At the Lincoln Memorial, the High Overlord tells Killraven that his escape from the rats has only inflamed the rebel cause. The High Overlord promises to carry out Killraven's death sentence. Suddenly, though, Rattack and his rats appear. Abraxas seizes Rattack. The High Overlord tries to shoot Killraven with a beam from his gauntlet, but he hits a slave instead. Killraven fights with the other slaves and turns his back on the High Overlord, who prepares to blast him. Sabre fires at the High Overlord, but the beam bounces off his chest and hits a column. The column, though, falls, followed by the roof above it. Abraxas throws Rattack aside, his flesh ripped by the suction cups of Abraxas's arms. The rats smell blood and tear Rattack to pieces. The statue of Abraham Lincoln topples and buries Abraxas. Sabre disappears. The High Overlord is buried in the rubble, but he has already started to dig himself out when the freepersons leave.
