October 1978. After being told of Argonium 3159 by Topol Mysterre, Gunther Garth was not making any progress in finding anything about the element. Finally realizing that his political influence to destroy Tony Starke was being matched dollar for dollar in the halls of Congress. Gunther Garth was losing his patience and decided to go with a full frontal assault on Starke Labs on Halloween night. An army of well armed men advanced on Starke Labs and made it past the fence and then straight into the lobby where they were met by four armed men that matched them in firepower. The ensuing firefight lasted just over five minutes with most of Gunther's men wounded or dying and only one of Starke Lab's security men was wounded. Gunther Garth walked in and decided to take a tour of the building and was enraged to find the building was nearly emptied of all scientific equipment. Meanwhile, in the nearby woods Tony and his men were tracking the Mothman creature. When the creature began to realize he was being followed, he took flight with his wings. But Tony had already a detection unit built to track the creature. For the next several days there was continuous pursuit of the creature over a vast area that included West Virginia, Southeast Ohio, Western Pennsylvania and finally Virginia in December 1978. Tony had decided that he could not keep up the pursuit after the first of November and flew to Hawaii to take care of his pregnant girlfriend, Summer Moran. In January of 1979 Summer had informed Tony that she was not pregnant with his child and now knew she was pregnant with twins. Due in late April or May, Summer was happy. Tony Sharpe, realizing the kids would need a father because Summer told him of the consequences if her father knew that Dirk Pitt was the true father of the twins. Tony Sharpe had met the young beauty back in June and was stunned that she had gotten pregnant with another man's kids. His love for Summer never wavered despite the knowledge and her father's obvious lunacy. On February 24, 1979 Tony was informed that one of the men in pursuit of the Mothman had wounded the creature. March 22, 1979 Tony Starke ran into Gunther Garth while in Los Angeles and the two fought in the hallway of an office tower. Tony was bleeding from his mouth when he spotted the door that led to the roof and took off for it with Gunther Garth in pursuit. On the roof, Tony again had to defend himself in a more brutal fight that he had ever fought. Now fighting for his life, Tony knew it would have to come down to his death or Gunther's. With an roundhouse blow to his ribcage, Tony danced about awkwardly in pain and slammed into an AC unit. Another blow from Gunther cut Tony's cheek. Tony came back with his two hands in one fist that slammed Gunther over the edge of the roof level and onto the next section of the roof. Tony jumped onto the man's legs almost pinioning Gunther to the roof and came down with a blow in the lower section of Gunther's belly that took the man's breath away. Tony then smashed a powerful blow on Gunther's face. Gunther roared upwards and knocked Tony off of him. Tony staggered towards the edge and swung himself away from it. Gunther came at Tony, and with a sidestep, Tony swung his head away from a blow. Gunther, not realizing that he had taken one step too far, had tripped himself onto the roof before the edge. Tony jumped on the man with all of his body. Gunther roared out loud and tried to heave the slightly built frame of Tony Starke. Tony twisted about to avoid going over the edge. Gunther roared up towards Tony at that same moment and was in full attack when he went over the edge of the building, falling fourteen stories to his death. After looking over the edge of the building for a moment to see Gunther's broken body, Tony knew he had to get the heck out of the building quick. Tony made it to a nearby alley just in time to escape the authorities. Tony made his way to a nearby small restaurant where he ducked into the restroom quickly to clean up. While in the restroom, Tony called for a car to take him to the Van Nuys Airport. Less than an hour later, Tony was boarding his private jet and told the pilot to head for Hawaii quickly.

May 19, 1979. Summer Moran gave birth to twins, one boy and one girl. Tony Starke held the baby boy in his arms while Summer held the baby girl in her arms. Summer had the biggest, most beautiful smile Tony had ever seen and knew he could never leave her. The nurse came into the room to take the babies to let Summer rest in peace. Reluctantly, Tony left Summer so that she could rest. The radio phone in his pocket vibrated. "What's up?" asked Tony. "We believe the Mothman is dead or hiding in some underground river below us here in the mountains of Virginia. The last time we saw it, it appeared weak from the pursuit. I'm sorry, Tony, but it looks like we have lost the creature and believe that it is dying. I'm truly sorry, Tony, but I know it was important for you to find this creature. We are tired too, after months of pursuing the creature. I'm sure that you will compensate us when you have the time. Oh, and congratulations on the birth of the babies, Mr. Starke, We just heard from your assistant". The End
