This one is pretty short, but I hope you enjoy it all the same!

“Easy, easy,” Supervillain said, holding their hands up in a placating gesture, “I’m not armed, Hero. It’s okay.”

Hero’s eyes darted between Supervillain, their men, and the cliff below. They held their hands out in front of them, ready to shoot ice at any point. Dozens of tranquilizer guns were trained on the cryogenic, ready to fire on command.

“I just wanna go home!” Hero shouted over the waterfalls.

“I know,” Supervillain said, “I know. We’re doing important work, Hero, you just need to be patient-”

“I’m tired of being patient! I want to go home! I don’t want to be here anymore! Let me go!”

Supervillain gave the signal for their men to stand down. They did so, and Supervillain approached Hero slowly. A few times, an ice crystal started to form, but Hero never fired.

“I know you’re scared,” Supervillain said, “and hurting, and confused. I understand all of those things. But this isn’t the way out. You’re putting your life in danger, and if you’re not careful, you won’t ever get to go home. I don’t want to see you hurt. Come back with me, and we’ll talk about it, okay?”

Hero faltered for a moment, lowering their hands. With their own hand behind their back, Supervillain gave the signal. A dart fired, whizzing past Supervillain and into Hero’s shoulder.

Hero stared at it with wide, frightened eyes. They just had time to look back at Supervillain before they crumpled. A few soldiers came to pick them up, but Supervillain stopped them. They lifted Hero into a bridal carry, shushing their quiet whimpers.

“It’s going to be okay,” Supervillain said, “this is just a precaution so you don’t get hurt. You’re not thinking clearly right now. We’re going to get you back to your room, and I promise we’ll have a discussion. Shhh, shhh.”

Hero couldn’t move, couldn’t speak, couldn’t think. The sounds of rushing water died down as Supervillain carried them into the back of the facility’s van. A single tear rolled down their cheek. They were so close to going home, but it was all for nothing.

Arcade drugs Storm and Banshee by shooting them with a tranquilizer dart pistol in X-Men #123

Here it is!

Banshee wakes up from his nap when he hears the telephone ringing and tries to answer it. Before he could do it, Banshee gets shot in the back from a tranquilizer dart by a mysterious perpetrator.

Storm comes out of the bathroom when hears the commotion from the room. Though she wonders where Banshee is, Storm rushes out to answer the phone only to get shot from the same weapon by the perpetrator. It turns out that the caller was Spider-Man and he was trying to call the remaining X-Men in the mansion to warn them about the abducted X-Men but it was too late. The perpetrator is none other than Arcade who has already captured Banshee and Storm.
