Title: Bird Undercover Part 3
Cassandra Cain’s undercover mission into The Ninth Day Corporation has landed her in a secret sub-basement labyrinth facing Bella, a mutated woman who is now a dog like werewolf creature. However, after Cass uses a brick to break Bella’s electronic collar, the beast becomes a friend.
Cass uses Bella to trick her way into the guard’s chamber. She takes some of the guard’s equipment before climbing up the elevator cable and back into the ventilation ducts. She sees a woman about to be injected with a green substance and crashes into the room. She frees the woman who flees into the air duct.
Cass now finds herself facing Xane, Jens, and Chet again. She sees that Xane is still wearing her secret communication bracelet. She uses a smoke grenade to distract him as she presses something to activate the bracelet. Except this has given one of the others time to hit her in the back with the syringe.
Meanwhile at the Birds Headquarters, the other Birds have been anxiously awaiting word from Cass since she missed the last two check in times. Oracle is finally able to translate the message Cass send before her initial capture and the group sets out through one of Barda’s boom tubes into the basement lab of the Ninth Day Corporation.
As the scientists flee, gas is released and the Birds done their gas masks. They’re then confronted by 4 grotesquely muscled mutated women. Black Canary, Big Barda, Onyx, and Grace take them out. However, as Black Canary uses a device to allow Oracle access into the computer she sees a sight that horrifies them: a grotesquely muscled mutated Cassandra Cain.
