Synopsis:
Following the assassination of Kanis-Biz, Vril Dox takes control of Cairn. The other drug lords unite against him to demand surrender. Dox creates an army of Lobo's to attack them. Dox's friends oppose his methods, so Vril drugs them before the battle begins. However, he failed to anticipate the hormonal change to Stealth's body. She resists the drugs. She then attempts to violently mate with Dox.
