    In "Angels Unwares", an older couple receives a visit from an unexpected source to tell them of the fate of the hero in their lives.
    "Don't Let Them Bite" finds a squad of gritty insects combatting the bed bug menace in an unseen war.
    An art thief makes an unusual decision following a request from a burgeoning artist in "Steal It Forward".
    The dire consequences of zombie combat strike home for a martial artist in "The Duel".
    In "If They're Really After You", a Scott Sremmah determines not to be a victim when a mysterious package arrives on his front porch.
    Gideon finds out if he is "Worthy" as he undergoes training by Ashkelon, a dark sorcerer seeking to elevate heroism.
    In "Consummate Professionals", a young woman named Candy finds out that there are many kinds of heroes as she guides Ace through an encounter with a terrifying tomblord.
