}}'''15 (Interlude; Rory Christner)''' is the fourth interlude and fourteenth and final chapter of [[Colony]]. A look at Triumph and Prism’s relationship, how Triumph gained his powers, Assault argues that the Protectorate capes should respond to the attack on Triumph, Dragon and Defiant arrive.

==Synopsis==
{{Incomplete}}[[Prism]] visits [[Triumph]] in the hospital after Skitter injures him. [[Cache]] is revealed to be alive and recovering. [[Prism]] reveals her past injuries and being a child gymnast. They visit the [[Wards]] headquarters to join the discussion over taking revenge on [[Skitter]] for her attack on the mayor's family.

Weld points out that Skitter did not intentionally break [[Unwritten Rules|the rules]] given how she figured out Triumph's and Prism's identities in the middle of intimidating the mayor. But this is dismissed as Tattletale having informed the super-villainess of the Protectorates civilian identities.
Director Piggot arrives with [[Dragon]] and reveals that she has rebuilt [[Colin Wallis|Armsmaster]] into 'Defiant' and the two will be hunting the [[Slaughterhouse Nine]] around the clock and around the world. Knowing that he is better off free to hunt the Nine, no one mentions the injustice of allowing Armsmaster to go free.

Rory needs to take some time to decide for himself. The blast site with two serial killers as tombstones are useful for contemplations.

==Trivia==
*Again Bitch's designation as Hellhound among the media is brought up.<ref name="I15c1">The Hellhound moniker was in place in the story from very early on. It’s habit for the heroes, but we don’t see that often. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/11/20/interlude-15/#comment-6422 Comment] in chapter by Wildbow</ref>
