...All kinds of crazy...
He appears of nowhere causing chaos and is gone just as soon. And for what? What did it accomplish other than terrorize us? Or was that it?
Or was it a distraction for something else?
If his attacks are in this blitzkrieg manner, we'll never find him...

Question Kid looked on the message. Anagram? No, that would acquire intelligence. Red Bee clearly is not a tactician. Question Kid turned to Cobalt Kid, "He made the wind, let him harvest the whirlwind*. I'm at your service for whatever needs to be done."

That's precisely what he wants you to think--that he's a wild card. It's all a part of his strategy. The truth is he is a master tactician.
I'd wager the last 24 hours of carnage were a distraction to keep us occupied for the Bee to accomplish some other purpose.

Hard to say if this message is him being poetic in his own sick mind or taunting us with a clue. I'll tell Lardy to have some people stationed here.

"I wish I could say the same, Sir Roy. All those files brought back bad memories," Red Arrow said. My father...spied...betrayed...a super-team. He kept dossier files on everyone for years and massacred them at their weakest point. I remember standing there and him patting me on the head and telling me to go to mommy. She sent me away to another universe, so I wouldn't be raised the super-villains I count as relatives. Ever since I started hanging out with Question Kid my memories have begun to reassemble themselves. (In case anyone doesn't know italics mean thoughts)

I keep returning to this spot...like I expect he'll be here.
Dev's squad was victorious in one way--they proved the Bee can be worn down after awhile. As if his energy supply is limited and can be depleted over time. If we can use that to our advantage...

"It's about time you came for me," Question Lad smiled. "We have to end this quickly, but the way you are fighting this will be a long war."

Up until now we've been all over the map. We've been scattered and half of us have been hurt. We've spent so much time trying to find the Bee, we haven't figured out how we can beat him.
But Dev has come up with an excellent strategy to lure the Bee to us. Good enough where we need to go on the assumption it will work.
And that's where you come in. We know the Bee's power can be depleted. But even when slightly depleted, he still could practically kill two of us.
But...if we could cut his power in half from the get-go...and then pour it on...
It's a lot to ask of you. Absorbing that much of his power means absorbing that much of his madness. You may never the same.

Dev lands. He looks the best he's looked in years...and that surprises Des. His face however is saddened, as he's just found out news that he has been dreading, but expecting.
"Hey Cobie, Kid. Timberwolf and Hot Chick are on their way here too. Lon told me that Sharky is not happy about missing out on the last melee, and wants in if we come across it again."
He pulls Des to the side, "have you talked to Lolita about the plan? Is she up for it?"

You better believe it. No ones hates the Bee like her. She'll be meeting us shortly. From here on out, she's in on it.

He just stares at Question Kid. "We could have used your help yesterday."
He turns away before Question Kid can respond. "What's the plan boss men?" He says to Des and Dev with a smile. He pats two guns on his hips. "These aren;t probably going to do much except annoy the hell out of him...but if I can manage at least that...I'm happy." He looks back at Hot Chick, "or at least happier."

Don't be so quick to judge QK. I purposely asked him to hold back and not engage the Bee thus far. The Bee has no clue who he is or what he can do...maybe this will lull him into a false sense of security.
