The Maleficent Seven[]

Bane travels to Chicago and Germany with Dexter’s team on their quest to get the God-Killer weapons, but only obtain Tanith’s replicas. Oblivious to their misleading, it is realised after the Maleficent Seven’s attack on Donegan’s (stolen) private jet that they are fakes.

The team rush to the English Sanctuary and sneak their way in, but run into the Maleficent Seven, then the Sanctuary officials. Fortunately, Tanith distracts the officials with a zombie-like virus and it’s up to the two teams to take the sword first. Sanguine manages to acquire it and escapes by tunnelling. In the end, all are arrested, but Dexter’s team are freed soon after.
