The Equaliser Foundation

The small frightened girl huddled in the upstairs closet. She fumbled with the cell phone before ringing the number. “You have reached the Equaliser Foundation __please leave a message.” In the barest whisper the girl said “please Mr Equaliser, someone is hurting my mommy, please come.â€? It was all she could say before breaking into soft sobbing.

A calm man’s voice answered the phone getting the girls address before she started sobbing again. He promised to be there in a few minutes. True to his word minutes later the knock came at the front door. The huge man inside, a giant slab of meat, laboratory enhanced, rushed outside to confront the door knocker. The visitor was too fast for the beastman. Stepping to one side he hammered it to the ground with a two handed blow to the back. Surprisingly the fight was over fairly quickly. The sheer speed of the Equaliser proving decisive as it usually did. Binding his adversary using an SAS technique the Equaliser stood up just before the police arrived.
