Fair enough. I'll need some time to flesh out the details and tailor the story so the new sections fit organically (as opposed to feeling shoehorned in). I'll tell you some about Basilisk in advance, though. It's a criminal gang, but the thing is most of the members have superpowers or other special abilities. For example, Gerard is an iguana man with numerous unique weapons, Estes can turn himself into liquid form, and Kim can control both light and darkness (Reread the passage in which Max is subdued). Though Basilisk is a criminal gang, Gerard and other members also combat other gangs and even some supervillains, making them anti-heroes as well. Eventually, long after this story, Gerard will reform and work with the superheroes. Some of the gang members, such as Estes and Kim, will reform along with him, forming a new heroic team called Re'em. Other members of Basilisk, however, won't know that he and many of his associates have reformed and formed Re'em. They'll think he's still a crime boss because the gang will continue to attack the operations of other criminals, just using more humane methods (He'll also stop his involvement with his illicit operations, but many will chalk that up to him wanting less stress and pressure in his life and some will think, "Hey, more for us!"). Some of them will wonder, "Who's behind this mysterious Re'em group which supports the heroes and keeps interfering with all the criminal gangs?" If they find out, a lot of them won't be too happy, but Gerard and his bunch will be sure to settle their hash!

By the way, do you think I conveyed Max's horror sufficiently?
