Citizen Soldier and his men has taken over the Capitol Building.
Santini argues with Giant in keeping himself and the Homeland Security
Squadron from interfering, given that Santini is wary of them possibly
causing more civilian casualties (especially Giant's previous actions at
the United Nations). In the end, Santini relents to the Squadron's
intervention. Giant and Santini meet with Jukko and Jaeger at the Capitol
Building. Jukko tells Santini that there is a looping feedback on the
reanimated corpses of Citizen Soldier's men which negates his
pain-absorption, and believes that he can find the one who is
reanimating the soldiers by concentrating on the variances in incoming
pain signals from the corpses. Giant has his team-members, Hexebus and
Ripslashbloodclawmaimblade, go with Jukko and Jaeger to breach the
Capitol. Meanwhile, Citizen Soldier abruptly enters the office of Senator
Sonny Terns and confronts the senator, who is really Alias posing as
Terns. Unaware that the real Terns had been secretly captured and
replaced, Citizen Soldier claims vengeance for Terns' role for Citizen
Soldier's two previous deaths. Alias tries to explain to him that he is
not Terns, but Citizen Soldier doesn't believe him and he shoots Alias
in the head. This causes Alias to revert to his real form and surprising
Citizen Soldier. Back at the Capitol; Jukko, Jaeger, Hexebus and
Ripslashbloodclawmaimblade fends off swarms of Citizen Soldier's men,
both living and undead. Hexebus and Ripslashbloodclawmaimblade
accidentally kill themselves in the struggle. Jukko and Jaeger are
surrounded and confronted by the reanimator of the corpses, Deadhead, a
skull-head post-human. Deadhead boast of what he will morbidly do to
them and stating that he himself is among the real posthumans serving
Citizen Soldier. Just as Deadhead leer his face close to Jukko, the
latter transfer the pain and suffering from the dead onto Deadhead with a
single touch. Deadhead is subdued and severing his control over the
deceased. Tefibi informs Santini that he has got a teleportation signature
on Citizen Soldier, who is now running. Santini then receives a call
from a barely alive Alias who tells him of his ordeal. Since a witness
had saw Alias being shot by Citizen Soldier, this makes Senator Terns
officially dead. Santini has Alias teleport back to the UN headquarters
to be treated before having his team trace Citizen Soldier. Team Achilles travels to where Citizen Soldier had gone to: Mount
Vernon. The team finds that the historic landmark is vacant and Citizen
Soldier has traveled to Boring, Ohio. Santini is confused as to why
Citizen Soldier would make an extra stop until Golovin informs him that
there is something that he really needs to see. Santini and Tefibi
enters Washington's Tomb where the body of the Founding Father is
missing and discovering the original identity of Citizen Soldier from
the tomb's epitaph: "When we assumed the Soldier, we did not lay aside
the Citizen." The Citizen Soldier is George Washington.
