Have you read chapter 19 of ‘Wasp’ yet? No? Then come back when you have!

Discord made me do it.

This all started in response to a comment (no names, you can probably work out who you are!) made after I posted chapter four; something to the effect of 'well it was obvious that Fusion would survive', after I left it at a cliff-hanger ending.
