Editing Slaughterhouse Fight in Los Angeles (section)

== Prelude ==
The [[Protectorate]], [[Wards]] and [[Undersiders]] entered and cleared the Slaughterhouse Nine's extradimensional base. They found that the teleporter had been used to send Nine members to [[Houston]], [[New York]] and [[Los Angeles]] - specifically, the Santa Fe Springs area of Los Angeles, that had been rendered uninhabitable by [[Tohu]].

[[Weaver]] had observed their departure using her power. The group that had travelled to Los Angeles was known to include Jack Slash, Siberian, Hookwolf, Gray Boy, all eight Harbingers, Psychosomas, Nyxes, and others she couldn't identify. It was decided that most of the heroes would teleport to Los Angeles; heroes already in the field would deal with the New York attack, and Defiant would deal with the Houston attack with the help of other organisations that had pledged to help against the Nine.<ref name=":0">[[Interlude 26a]]</ref>
