Now the year was 1977 and that meant Andros was
Comrade Andros,a software developer over at Space City,and
the Soviet Union was alive and well.
Now Andros's girlfriend was actually a agent in the KGB and she'd been
assigned to keep track of this guy named Andros because some buerecrat in Moscow thought Andros was selling secrets on the under Ultra Top Secret Mir Mars Lander program.
The space guys had perfected a He 235 fission rocket engine years earlier that
would allow the Soviet Union to get a manned space ship over to Mars in under 2 months due to the He 235 using some space and time compression technology.
Clearly Ultra Top Secret stuff and not the kind of technology you'd want some traitorous citizen to hand over to the CIA spies.
So Talia had finally been given the orders to assasinate her supposed boyfriend Andros and she and big burly Ivan were marching towards
Andros's house to kill him.
So the two assasins kicked in the door with a "Banng"
7.65 mm pistols drawn and emptied their guns into the sofa where Andros normally slept.
The two agents then carefully crept over to the sofa in the near dark and expected to see a corpse on the sofa.
There was no body there,just pillows with feathers and dust floating out of them through the bullet holes.
Talia pulled went over to the desk phone and dialed the secret phone number she'd been given and reported in.
The quarry had escaped.
Now what Andros hadn't known was that the purple dragoness
costume had been sewn together by Talia's missing stepsister Illyana.
Illyana had known something about Talia's murderous side job,and had realized that sooner or later she would end up being targeted for assasination by the msterious Comrade M in the Kremlin.\\
So Illyana had sewn together that purple dragoness costume,
hoping that the ability to fly,breathe fire and have scales would
keep her alive a little longer.
Alas she'd vanished and her costume had found its way to a warehouse
store where visiting Poliburo folk came for those "behind closed doors"
finger up the nose to the official party way of life.
Now the costume was designed to protect its wearer from harm,and since Andros clearly wouldn't have believed that his girlfriend of three
weeks would murder him,the suit had taken over.
