Bullets flew from a gunmans pistol as he staggered through the streets, the projectiles hammered against the unyielding chest of the newest hero to operate openly in Britain, a hero that has made London her home, a hero that has taken on the mantle of the legendary 'Union Jack.'
The bank robbery had started and proceeded as most do, shock, violence and intimidation leading to stolen goods and a getaway, but when the three robbers made their exit from the central London branch of H.S.B.C they were accosted by Union Jack on her motor bike. A fight ensued and she downed two of the robbers with single blows, sending them flying across the streets and into the inevitable custody of the Mmetropolitan Police.
The final robber ran between the parked cars and was chased down and captured with no casualties and no injuries other than to the robbers and the man they had beaten to spread fear through the bank when they first entered.
The three man team would have made off with over three million pounds if not for the actions of the new Union Jack, but what gives anyone the right to take a superhuman name that has already been/or is being used? We dispatched a reporter to ask that very same question to Peter Wisdom; head of MI13.
'The thing is, a name is just a name normally. Peter, John, Dave; all just names. But some names do have power and for us this is something that is important. Union Jack is a name that has been linked to some of the bravest actions ever undertaken by our countrymen, its also a name that's been dragged through the mud over the last year with the trial of Union Black,' said mister Wisdom, standing outside the base they now reside in in the driving rain.
'So is this woman Union Jack? Well maybe a name as important as this one needs not to be appointed by a team of experts, maybe this is a name that shouldn't be sanctioned and controlled, maybe this is a name that must be taken. A role that must be forged anew so that the mistakes of the past can be learnt from and maybe the pain of those mistakes can finally start to ease. Now i think if she wants the name she can have it, but she bloody better well live up to it!'
