Ben and Alicia are at Shea Stadium, taking in a Jets game, when a Goodyear Blimp fles overhead, zaps Ben, and proceeds to hoist him out of the Stadium while Alicia sits there confused. In the blimp, we see a small group of eastern martial artist types wondering if they're doing the right thing, but deciding that they couldn't afford to be turned down, so they must be. Ben comes to, hanging in a room with Iron Fist trussed to the wall across from him. Introductions are made, and I.F. promptly breaks loose and sets Ben free as well. Deciding against a fight (since they're in a dirigible over the ocean), the two wait it out, and are eventually (once over land again) dropped into free fall. Once on the ground, they're told that they were brought there to train an army in combat. If the army can beat them, the logic goes, it can easily deal with its enemies...
