Objective

Jimi Stringer set a distress signal to Hero Factory from Tranquis VII, where he had been in a deep cover mission for several days. William Furno and Dunkan Bulk were dispatched to the planet to investigate.

Background

Tranquis VII was a vacation planet that Stringer was sent to in a mission. He was absent through the Attack on Makuhero City and Mission: Collision Course because of this. He sent a distress signal to Stormer, but was cut-off.

Summary

Bulk and Furno arrived on the planet using a prototype Drop Ship with a cloaking device, but not after avoiding ships near the planet that fired upon them. The city of Tranquis was deserted, but Bulk spotted a lone robot, and tunneled underground with Furno following. They accidentally burst into an area filled with security robots, but Furno used a flashbang to defeat them. The Heroes went back above-ground, and scaled a building, but saw that robots controlled by Brains were surrounding the base of the building, but they didn't appear to be fully controlled. A Brain-controlled Stringer ambushed the two Heroes, and attempted to control them with Brains, but Karter saved them. Karter brought them to his laboratory and his boss, Dumacc, who insisted that the Heroes leave Tranquis and not expose the laboratory. They refused, and were stripped of their weapons and placed in a cell. At Hero Factory, Stormer received a call from Stringer saying a rebellion needed to be crushed, but knew that it was not like Stringer. Furno and Bulk staged a jailbreak, but were armed by Dumacc to defend his lab from Brains. Karter and Bulk grabbed the Brains' attention while Furno went to fight and save Stringer. Stormer arrived and took control of the prototype Drop Ship while Stringer offered Furno a place in his empire. Furno cuffed him and Stringer attempted suicide, but landed on the prototype Drop Ship, where Furno removed his Brain. They went back to the lab in time to stop Brains from activating Dumacc's superweapon Project Sunstorm.

Aftermath

Project Sunstorm was a weapon harnessing the sun of Tranquis' energy to devastate worlds, created by the Galactic Conspiracy. While Heroes captured all the Brains in the city, Nathaniel Zib examined it, but was knocked out by Karter who destroyed the weapon and tried to injure Bulk. Karter was imprisoned in Hero Factory, but had fulfilled his objective to get into the building.
