Claudla s amazed w hen Roy seems to

explans later tha when he was wounded in

Ylne trio make thelr way to another half
dead town. I htnre seem to b(' more people
but tlney're not much Mendlier. Stril they are
atlemptlng to recapmre some of the pleasures
they knew before the invaslon by hosting a
rock concert in one of tlne less run down ban.
The performer Ls a popular singing star named
Yellow Dancer who has modeled her career
after the legendary Lynn M nmei.
Scott Rand and Annie enloy the music.
'lhey appreciate any slpn of real clullzatlon
especially after thelr long trek througah the
war ttll'n Countryslde l-he fkln Is Over to()
sotm when the ugly slde of hum anity rears ILS
lnead ln the rorm ol a dmnken thug who
attacks the beautlful singer in the rruddle of
lner performance.
Playing along w1tï1 the brute Yellow tnes
to reggm order. Obvlotssly she can hold her
own on stage and ln a jght. Stlll she's fust one
pemon and things get ou: of hand when (he
drunk ls Jolned by his Mends. Before Rand
and Rott can lntervene a quick telripered
blonde woman appears to put Yeliow's
awadants ln their place. Scott recognizes het
as tlle cyclone nder who helped them when
the lnvld attacked at the island.
Rand can't just stand by. He has to Iend the
new comer a hand. She does not appredate lt
but to Rand's delil t, YeLow Dancer seems
grateful. He is thrilled to meet his fdvonte
sinsng star. Yellow seems as charmlng
ln person as Rand had alwap îmapned
she'd be.
W hile Rand adm ires Yellow Rlott has a
w ord with the singer's manager. lt seems
there's no w ay to combat the thup who
broke up the concert. l'hey are in charge of
the town by gorce of numbers and mean.
