History
Technet were a team of bounty hunters from various extradimensional worlds. For a price, Technet would hunt and capture fugitives, rescue prisoners from captivity, or recover objects of value. The scope of Technet extended across multiple worlds and dimensions. (Captain Britain v2 #4)
Later, Technet traveled on business to the Wereworld, whose natives become Werewolves under a full moon, having been exiled from their home by Sat-Yr-9. There, Technet member Elmo was fatally wounded by werewolves. Subsequently, Gatecrasher either seriously injured or killed a member of the Berserker Pirates who attempted to interest her in becoming his lover. The pirate's family forced Technet to turn over all their accumulated wealth as reparations. Angered by this reversal in their fortunes, all of the members of Technet except for Yap and Fascination left the team. (Captain Britain v2 #12)
Shortly thereafter, Gatecrasher went to a celebration held by the despot of Kandahar. A person she believed to be the despot himself hired her to procure a perfect mathematical model of the universe that was made of rock crystal and that was held and revered by the Incas of 14th century Peru on Earth-616. Gatecrasher, Yap, and Fascination journeyed through time to obtain the model, but Gatecrasher and Yap were tricked by the person they believed to be a native high priest into consuming fruit filled with the eggs of deadly parasites. Gatecrasher and Yap were thus forced to remain under a cooling waterfall to prevent the eggs inside them from hatching and consuming their bodies from within. In actuality, an alien had impersonated both the despot of Kandahar and the high priest, and hoped to force Fascination into his employ through this convoluted plot. This alien had already succeeded in hiring the members of Technet who had just left the group. His team was the Special Executive, a future version of Technet. The team's precognitive, Cobweb, told him that Fascination wouldn't join the Special Executive for another 300 years. (Captain Britain v2 #12)
Fascination brought Captain Britain and his companion Meggan to 14th century Peru to rescue Gatecrasher. Captain Britain gathered together the plants necessary to create the antidote that would kill the parasite eggs. Gatecrasher and Yap consumed the antidote, and then they, Fascination, Captain Britain, and Meggan returned to their own time period. (Captain Britain v2 #12)
