Plot
A terrorist group led by Sam Washington Vernon Wells seizes the British embassy in downtown Los Angeles, killing hostages. All seems lost, but the T-Force, the world's first fully cybernetic law enforcement team is deployed and within minutes, more than thirty terrorists are dead. One member of the T-Force is destroyed Athens R. David Smith. Upon learning this Adam Evan Lurie, one of the members of T-Force, goes too far and shoots a disarmed and surrendering female terrorist Spice Williams-Crosby. He then destroys a terrorist helicopter with six hostages on board including the U.N. Ambassador Chris Olsen Clement Von Frankenstein with a grenade launcher. Mayor Pendleton Erin Gray and Chief Richman Duke Stroud of the LAPD decide to shut down the program and disassemble the cybernauts despite protest from the cybernaut's chief scientist Dr. Jon Gant Martin E. Brooks.
Perceiving their shutdown a threat to their self-preservation, Adam, Mandragora Jennifer MacDonald and Zeus Deron McBee rebel and go on a killing rampage by targeting the mayor and the chief. Lieutenant Jack Floyd Jack Scalia of the LAPD teams up with Cain Bobby Johnston, one of the cybernauts who chose to obey the law, to hunt down the renegade cybernauts and destroy them.
