WCOC Crew at vigilante's mercy? - Edge Exacerbates Hostage Situation

MILLENNIUM CITY. Yesterday, at roughly 9:00AM local time, the WCOC's Action News Crew were taken hostage just before their scheduled broadcast. While all relevant events seem to have taken place off-camera - the crew, as hostages, were unable to get good footage - our correspondents have some rather alarming news to report, despite of all this.

It seems that Chainblade, once Knight City's greatest and darkest guardian, has taken it upon himself to unmask and capture the ever-elusive Edge, by any and all means necessary. "No matter how far you run, no matter how long you hide, you'll never get away from me", Chainblade was recorded saying. "If innocent blood has to be spilled for you to face your failures and my judgement, then so be it."

While MCPD S.W.A.T teams were cordoing off the area, as per orders from the MCU's Lieutenant Frank Brody, the elusive Edge sneaked past the perimeter line and turned a tense hostage situation from bad to worse; he faced off with Chainblade and his cohorts on top of the WCOC broadcast tower, thereby further endangering the lives of the hostages as well as the station's rather valuable equipment. "I don't know which is worse; Edge meddling with police affairs", Lieutenant Frank Brody commented, "or the fact that he's now brought more vigilantes into town... vigilantes that are after him! It never ends with this guy!"

We do not know the exact details of what happened next, except that the intrepid Action News Crew will certainly keep reporting on this and other issues. They've been taken hostage plenty of times and probably will again, in the future. No big hassle, right? As far as Chainblade and Edge  are concerned, when I know more, dear readers, so will you!
