Murder Game 0: Genesis

[Atomyk]

Steve's shield ended up missing Jaffar by inches and he called it back to himself, allowing him to hold it up to deflect the gunfire aimed his way.

"Unarmed?" Steve barked, looking toward Penny. He had to bunker down, crouching behind his shield to protect himself from Schala's attack. "They sent unarmed people out here?!"

When the attack was over, Steve stood to his feet. He flinched as the car he had tossed toward Penny was thrown his direction, but it landed in a heap to the right of him. Steve looked toward the source, spotting Cullen with a strange growth of tentacles sprouted from his back.

"Yeah, he's unarmed, and none of us want to be here!" The tentacles on his back twitched and shivered, reacting to Cullen's anger. "They don't care whether we live or die, and we're only fighting or else Umbrella will start firing on us! They want us to kill each other, but anyone with half a brain would realize none of us should be doing it."

Cap shot a finger toward those fighting with Thor, shaking his head. "Then what do you call that?! We will protect ourselves first and foremost!"

"That's why this is so utterly daft. We'd stand down if we could." Cullen took a deep breath, his tentacles receding back into his body. "I don't really care, however. All I know is that the Captain America I'm familiar with would be doing everything he could to get us out of this situation. That's what you superheroes do, isn't it? If we all just--"

Cullen let out a sharp cry and his legs buckled beneath him. He knelt on the pavement, clutching his head. It wasn't long before others were falling, all those who seemed unwilling to fight.

"Tony, we have a problem--"

"A little busy!"

Tony twirled himself in the air, turning his body horizontal in an attempt to send Jason flying into Blake above. Whether this worked or not, he shot a burst of energy from his hand that cut the grapple hook in two, assuming it was still connected to him.

It was then that an explosion rang out. Fire rained down from the sky, dancing around a ball of flame. For those that had been paying attention, they would have seen that Travis Touchdown had been consumed in the explosion.

From a distance stood Krauser, a rocket launcher nestled on his shoulder. One of the armored cars was behind him, apparently having provided him with the weapon. "That was an example," Krauser said over the radios. "Now kill them!"

The pain then receded, for the moment. It seemed Umbrella was allowing those who weren't willing to fight a chance to change their attitudes.

​

​

Despite being unarmed, he was definitely dangerous. And unhappy. He didn't like cars being flung at him. No more than he liked being here. Waving around his hands in a series of patterns, he'd fling a sphere of energy towards Steve. The expression on Penny's face? Unhappiness. And of course that little sphere would explode when it hit something.

"Today sucks."​

 

[Jeremi]

The first thing to reach Thor ended up being one that even caught him by surprise and quickly wiped the smug exterior off his face; Clark's sheer speed blitzing him through the nearest building where he landed on the other side of the ground. Though his godly durability made sure he ended up okay ultimately, that was not a blow that the God of Thunder took lightly, the blonde man wiping his face off as he stood his ground again.

"... Alright. Maybe this might be a mild challenge..." He muttered, clutching his trusty hammer tightly. As all the others who wished to challenge him seemed to follow suit, he prepared himself for battle again, quickly analyzing his surroundings and taking note of what the ideal strategy would be.

The god easily enough blocked every bullet that came his way from Shirou and Miku with his metal vambraces, as though he were able to see them coming decently well. For the moment, his main concern seemed to be Clark. Faster than a speeding bullet, he really was, but first, he needed to get these flies out of the way. Or so he'd believed. As Cagliostro's magic did its work, putting immense pressure on Thor, the god found himself hardly able to move. It was quite the sticky situation, but if this wasn't something he was able to handle, then he wouldn't be able to call himself mighty.

"I know not what black magic you possess, fiend, but by the power of Mjolnir..."

Mustering as much strength as he could to resist the Collapse spell, Thor raised his hammer and slammed it into the ground, creating another mighty shockwave that rocked the area around, once again with the intention of sending everyone on the ground off-balance and interfering with their focus.

CRASH!

But he was far from done yet.

"I will best you all!"

From the smokescreen he'd generated with the debris, Thor swooped in from the side at godly speeds, smashing his hammer into Clark's side and hoping to send his body flying straight at Shirou and Miku, before focusing his attention on Cagliostro next, as he'd generate lightning with his hammer and cast it, firing a bolt right at the alchemist!

@Josh M @Crow @Sen @Kaykay @Kaide` @ThorFight​

Whether out of curiosity while examining his enemies or a deadpan way of realizing he was probably, to put it in crude terms, boned, Ant-Man could only silently purse his lips, before directing his attention first at Ada, the closest one to him. He raised an arm up, as though to wave at her.

"Hi, I'm Scott! Don't believe we've met, though... I guess you're supposed to know me as Ant-Man here. And before you ask, no, I didn't come up with that name, alright?"

When she had drawn her knife, however, his tone quickly changed, the man raising both arms defensively and backing away from her slowly.

"Alright, alright, look. I'm warning you right now, this doesn't have to end badly for any of us, 'cause let me tell ya, it'll really smart when you get me going. I mean, I'm a dangerous guy, y'know. And I'm clearly not beneath hurting a lady if I--Oh, son of a--!"

While the man seemed much more interested in talking, he was caught off guard when Domon went in without a word. The lucky first punch managed to connect and send him stumbling back, though he quickly recovered, raising his arms to block and evade Domon's flurry, bobbing his head around like a boxer. He waited for the right opportunity, and then...

Whoosh!

Gathering his bearings quickly, Ant-Man countered a punch Domon would throw, grabbing his extended arm and turning around, before performing a shoulder throw and slamming the Gundam pilot into the ground! Feeling confidence well up with that brief display of close-quarters-combat, he looked upon the others who intended to fight with him, putting up his dukes and clenching his fists tightly like a street brawler.

"Oh, hell yeah, I'm the man. And it only took a woman to teach me how to do that. Alright! Who's next, huh? Who wants--"

BOOM!

Ant-Man stopped mid-sentence as Twisted Fate's cards exploded in front of him, sending his body flying a few feet away! Hitting the grass with a loud grunt, he gritted his teeth, shaking his head. "Ow... Goddammit," he grunted, looking up at Twisted Fate continuing to throw cards, Alice charging right at him, and Naomi pointing her gun at him. He wasn't used to being surrounded like this, but hey, if he was gonna prove his worth as an Avenger, he needed to show that this was a walk in the park!

Not that he exactly intended to be on the same level as Thor.

With that, scrambling to put what appeared to be a metal helmet on, Ant-Man quickly pressed what seemed to be a button in his hand, and with that, it was as though his body disappeared, practically disappearing within the blades of grass beneath everyone.

It was nigh impossible to ascertain where he had gone for everyone around, though his body didn't remain missing for very long, exactly.

An extremely minuscule figure hopped on top of Naomi's gun, and ran along its length, before then making its way onto the woman's shoulder, and leaping towards her face, where it delivered what felt like a hard hook punch toward her, knocking her a few feet away! With that, the man's body appeared once more, standing just a few inches away from where Naomi once was, looking before everyone.

"See? Told ya I'm a dangerous guy! But you didn't--Oh, shit," he began, before finding himself unable to even finish talking as Ali thrust his sword toward his groin and Alice began charging at him, prompting him to do the most logical thing.

Run away.

"Screw it all, I am so not cut out for being a real Avenger!" Ant-Man exclaimed as he turned tail, "And why are there civilians?! What kind of people are you to drag civilians into this place?!"

Well Android 18 knew who her target was now. Damn too many people flying around so that nixes the Destructo Disc. At this rate she'll never get to us it in a fight she thought to herself.

With a burst of speed she flew towards Thor the deliver a flurry of punches and kicks.

"Damn..." Joshua had to hold back a grimace as Travis was blown away. The man had seemed interesting enough, something akin to a mercenary to himself. Perhaps the two of them could have been friends if not for this conflict? "Well, best focus on the task at hand. No point in worrying over past coin tosses," That didn't mean he would waste time shedding any tears though.

Giving Jaffar a nod to tell him that he was ready to get back in the fight, the myrmidon headed back into the fray. "Now you see what we have to deal with on our side, friend," Joshua remarked as he aimed to use whatever remained of Lucio's speed boost to begin twirling about Rogers, bobbing in and out of his reach to cut at him before falling back with a slight frown, "Best you figure out a way to get us out of this situation if you want us to stop. Given the choice? I'd be happy with just being left to go back home and choosing my own fights rather than working for these dastards."

As Thor's hammer found itself slammed into the ground with a godly earth shattering crack, Miku found herself disrupted as the shock wave hit, debris and other nasty things threatening to find their way onto her.

This feeling of unsteadiness was only amplified when, after a second of trying to regain her bearings, Miku looked up-- only to see the blurs of a high speed projectile of a person flying right towards her. It was gone almost as soon as she could process it, Clark appearing to vanish out of sight. It appeared several people tried to intervene with that near catastrophe for the young android, and boy was she thankful for that. It really did seem like these people had her back.

Back to the matter at hand.​

An extremely minuscule figure hopped on top of Naomi's gun, and ran along its length, before then making its way onto the woman's shoulder, and leaping towards her face, where it delivered what felt like a hard hook punch toward her, knocking her a few feet away! With that, the man's body appeared once more, standing just a few inches away from where Naomi once was, looking before everyone.

"See? Told ya I'm a dangerous guy! But you didn't--Oh, shit," he began, before finding himself unable to even finish talking as Ali thrust his sword toward his groin and Alice began charging at him, prompting him to do the most logical thing.

Run away.

"Screw it all, I am so not cut out for being a real Avenger!" Ant-Man exclaimed as he turned tail, "And why are there civilians?! What kind of people are you to drag civilians into this place?!"

"NAOMI!!" Alice called out to her colleague in horror, then turned back to Ant-Man, teeth bared in the same way they'd been when she had tried to escape the observation room earlier.

"YOU COWARD!! GET BACK HERE AND FINISH WHAT YOU STARTED, YOU PUNY SPINELESS ANT!!!!" Nothing was more despicable than a coward. To hit someone, then run when in danger?! He was no better than the bug he paraded as!

And that bug deserved to be squashed.

Alice initiated ASURA-6's immobile form, lifting into the air to shoot Beams at the fleeing Ant-Man.

Naomi collapsed to the ground and dropped her gun. Her hand flew to her face and she felt warm drops of blood. She took a deep breath and put all her focus into remaining calm.

She had seen blood at crime scenes plenty of times before. However, it had never been her own.

Blood, at a crime scene...

As she watched Ant-Man run off, she knew rhat she couldn't let him just get away. Fighting through the pain, she forces herself to grab the pistol and give chase.

As she followed, she notoced blood, whether her own drawn from the force of Scott's punch or Scott's blood drawn from ally attacks. She reached into her bag of forensic tricks and pulled out a bottle of luminol spray.

"Luminol... It reacts with iron in the blood. A dose of this, and even if he shrinks to his miniscule size again, he should be a glowing blue target." Naomi does her best to spray Ant-Man with Luminol, and hopes that there's enough blood to gain a reaction.

Or at the very least, that Ant-Man's suit has some components of iron.

Looking back over the battlefield, Miku just barely caught sight of the aftermath of Naomi being flung several feet away-- and witnessing Alice react accordingly. She watched as Ant-Man appeared full size once more, beginning to flee with Naomi giving quick chase. This was her chance to assist her. Averting her aim away from Thor, Miku tried to take aim at the fleeing figure of Ant-Man. She probably wouldn't be able to hit a moving target like this, but at least she'd be able to help distract him or something... Right?

Steady hands, steady aim. BANG!​

"Tony, we have a problem--"

"A little busy!"​

And that was precisely when she made her move, having just been skirting along the battle and waiting for a good opportunity...though that pained incentive helped. A blast of crimson energy shot through the air, aimed to crash right into the good Captain while he was distracted. A moment later she lowered herself closer to the ground. "Oh my my..."

"Hope I didn't break your concentration. Actually, hoping more for broken bones, myself. Better fun that way."

All seemed fine on Blake's end, until Jason was flung over his direction.

"Not again..."

Blake had no choice but to leave the shield up to reduce the collision between himself and Jason. No way he was going to let the guy fall all the way down.

"Battle protocol 4."

The shield disappeared and formed into the wings that enabled Blake flight again. Almost before the other would start falling, he reached out to grab Jason by the arm.

"C'mon... Not letting anyone f-"

Around that time, Blake's PWM cube had just run out of power, the wings disappearing and soon made gravity relevant to him again.

"Falling! Aw crap, aw crap, this wasn't on the plaaaaan!!"

Ugh, backup plan, I need a backup plan. I can try to direct myself to land on something... Or to grab onto... No, not enough time...

Blake was running all of the possibilities on how to lessen the fall damage, his eyes darting everywhere. It was like he forgot about others willing to catch him... and there had to be someone willing to, right?

@Otto @Yun Lee @Archwar @Mason Moretti @Minerva @penguin055 @Gands @AntManFight​

Twisted Fate's muscles had gotten sore from throwing all of those cards. He rested for a moment before preparing another deck. Instead of throwing more cards, he hesitated, unsure of what to do next. His moral compass was all over the place. Previously, T.F was fighting because his opponents didn't seem human to him. They were just blank cards. He didn't know their personalities, their families, their hobbies, or anything that distinguishes humans from one another. Ant Man's manner of speaking reminded T.F that he was another man like himself. In fact, the Avenger's personality was quite humorous. He thought about how the Umbrella corporation was forcing him to fight. Damn them. I ain't doin' it. ​

Her finger was stuck. In fact, her whole body seemed to be frozen. Even her breathing and blinking had stopped. Like a statue, Kujou stood there, almost like a picture from a textbook of shooting form.

"...Ah," Kujou shook from her statue-like state, her eyes widening a bit as she lowered the gun. She looked down at it, and then back up at the fleeing Ant Man.

She really couldn't do it after all. She really was useless.

@Otto @Archwar @Mason Moretti @Minerva @penguin055 @Gands @AntManFight @Verite

Twisted Fate looked towards Kujou, noticing her apprehension. His heart smoldered with rage. He wanted to turn around and kill every single Umbrella employee. He had enough of their torment. The sad part was, he would die if he tried to do that. The thing in his head would prevent him from doing so.

Just then, he realized something. One of the benefits of being a mage was having the ability to control power. All he had to do was channel less power into his cards. As a result, his cards would look like they were imbued with magic, but they would do small amounts of damage. Hopefully, his opponents would recognize this.

He threw his deck into the air, causing a number of cards to float around him like a tornado. He would pursue Ant Man, throwing explosive red cards in an attempt to hit him with the splash damage. At the same time, the tornado of cards flung themselves one by one toward Thor. Of course, the damage would be minuscule. It would look like it hurt, though.

Steve's shield ended up missing Jaffar by inches and he called it back to himself, allowing him to hold it up to deflect the gunfire aimed his way.

"Unarmed?" Steve barked, looking toward Penny. He had to bunker down, crouching behind his shield to protect himself from Schala's attack. "They sent unarmed people out here?!"

"Yeah, he's unarmed, and none of us want to be here!" They tentacles on his back twitched and shivered, reacting to Cullen's anger. "They don't care whether we live or die, and we're only fighting or else Umbrella will start firing on us! They want us to kill each other, but anyone with half a brain would realize none of us should be doing it."

"That's why this is so utterly daft. We'd stand down if we could." Cullen took a deep breath, his tentacles receding back into his body. "I don't really care, however. All I know is that the Captain America I'm familiar with would be doing everything he could to get us out of this situation. That's what you superheroes do, isn't it? If we all just--"

Cullen let out a sharp cry and his legs buckled beneath him. He knelt on the pavement, clutching his head. It wasn't long before others were falling, all those who seemed unwilling to fight.

"Tony, we have a problem--"

"A little busy!"

Tony twirled himself in the air, turning his body horizontal in an attempt to send Jason flying into Blake above. Whether this worked or not, he shot a burst of energy from his hand that cut the grapple hook in two, assuming it was still connected to him.

It was then that an explosion rang out. Fire rained down from the sky, dancing around a ball of flame. For those that had been paying attention, they would have seen that Travis Touchdown had been consumed in the explosion.

From a distance stood Krauser, a rocket launcher nestled on his shoulder. One of the armored cars was behind him, apparently having provided him with the weapon. "That was an example," Krauser said over the radios. "Now kill them!"

The pain then receded, for the moment. It seemed Umbrella was allowing those who weren't willing to fight a chance to change their attitudes.

As the explosion occurred, both Pokemons looked back and saw the outlines of a man disintegrating within the flames.

"How can you do something like this!? I'm fighting for someone!!!" Jabber would lash out verbally against Krauser.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!" Doremi would scream with a very loud and sharp voice (Hyper Voice) that it would cause the ears of the people around her ring loudly. Because of this, Jabber held his paws over his ears too.

[Takumi]

Steve's shield ended up missing Jaffar by inches and he called it back to himself, allowing him to hold it up to deflect the gunfire aimed his way.

"Unarmed?" Steve barked, looking toward Penny. He had to bunker down, crouching behind his shield to protect himself from Schala's attack. "They sent unarmed people out here?!"

When the attack was over, Steve stood to his feet. He flinched as the car he had tossed toward Penny was thrown his direction, but it landed in a heap to the right of him. Steve looked toward the source, spotting Cullen with a strange growth of tentacles sprouted from his back.

"Yeah, he's unarmed, and none of us want to be here!" They tentacles on his back twitched and shivered, reacting to Cullen's anger. "They don't care whether we live or die, and we're only fighting or else Umbrella will start firing on us! They want us to kill each other, but anyone with half a brain would realize none of us should be doing it."

"Damn..." Joshua had to hold back a grimace as Travis was blown away. The man had seemed interesting enough, something akin to a mercenary to himself. Perhaps the two of them could have been friends if not for this conflict? "Well, best focus on the task at hand. No point in worrying over past coin tosses," That didn't mean he would waste time shedding any tears though.

Giving Jaffar a nod to tell him that he was ready to get back in the fight, the myrmidon headed back into the fray. "Now you see what we have to deal with on our side, friend," Joshua remarked as he aimed to use whatever remained of Lucio's speed boost to begin twirling about Rogers, bobbing in and out of his reach to cut at him before falling back with a slight frown, "Best you figure out a way to get us out of this situation if you want us to stop. Given the choice? I'd be happy with just being left to go back home and choosing my own fights rather than working for these dastards."

@Gands @thatguyinthestore @Gummi Bunnies @Hospes @CrunchyCHEEZIT @The Myrmidon @Crimson Spartan @Takumi @Bomb @Hachiro Terra @Yang Lee @Mason Moretti @york @Darkseide @SteveTonyFight​

Azura would use the speed boost tp run over tp Captain America, jumping forward and delivering a hard horizontal swing of her Naginata, using a bit of distance due to her weapon. Unfortunately she wasn't as powerful with her swings as Joshua or Jaffar, but that didn't mean she couldn't pack bit of a punch if need.

Azura quickly made her way over to Joshua's side afterwards.

"Joshua, are you alright?" she asked, only briefly glancing to what had happened to Travis Touchdown before quickly looking away.

Hearing Doremi's Hyper Voice caused her to cringe from the ear ringing pain but only slightly.

"I would rather not fight...but with what just happened our fates are sealed." she sighed. Fate. What a funny thing, bringing them together in such a way.

All seemed fine on Blake's end, until Jason was flung over his direction.

"Not again..."

Blake had no choice but to leave the shield up to reduce the collision between himself and Jason. No way he was going to let the guy fall all the way down.

"Battle protocol 4."

The shield disappeared and formed into the wings that enabled Blake flight again. Almost before the other would start falling, he reached out to grab Jason by the arm.

"C'mon... Not letting anyone f-"

Around that time, Blake's PWM cube had just run out of power, the wings disappearing and soon made gravity relevant to him again.

"Falling! Aw crap, aw crap, this wasn't on the plaaaaan!!"

Ugh, backup plan, I need a backup plan. I can try to direct myself to land on something... Or to grab onto... No, not enough time...

Blake was running all of the possibilities on how to lessen the fall damage, his eyes darting everywhere. It was like he forgot about others willing to catch him... and there had to be someone willing to, right?

Schala ceased her assault for a moment, seeming to be taking in what was happening around her; various people who had been brought to this place along with her had refused to fight... And those who had, were soon eliminated, made into examples of what would happen to those who still refused.

There was this tearing battle in her head... As she still felt as conflicted as ever about continuing to fight, but yet... Some part of her pushed her continue, not to win... But simply for her own survival.

However, instead of immediately continuing her attacks, she appeared to have gotten momentarily sidetracked... As she saw someone plumetting from the sky, at a rather alarming rate.

Casting haste on herself a second time... She, with some luck on her side, would hopefully be able to catch Blake in the nick of time, and if everything went according to plan... Well, Schala would give him a brief, but... Sincere smile, before setting him down and returning to the fight at hand with Captain America.

Her head still throbbed from the last time that chip had been used... And well, she reckoned she'd be in trouble if she got sidetracked for too long.

So, still as tentative as ever, she raised her hands again, concentrating... Like she had gotten quite used to, another area of effect spell, spanning about the same area as the previous ones, but rather than lighning or ice... It was fire; for a good while, multiple flames would burst forth from the ground underneath Cap, seeking to strike him.​

Naomi Kimishima Little Guy Quotes

  @Kaide` @Yun Lee @Verite #LadySquad
  @Otto @Archwar @MetalNova #AntFight
  
  A loud buzzing noise accompanied by a strong vibration emanated from Naomi's pocket. She reached into her pocket and pulled out her cell phone, which was glowing with a strange, purplish aura. "Oh no," she said to herself.
  
  With worry stitched into her face, she answers the call. On the other end is the voice of Travis Touchdown, screaming in agony as he burns to death. This was Krauser's "example". A sacrifice of one of our own.
  
  Naomi had heard the voices of the dead before, but this was different. This voice of the dead contained all tbe malice that went into his murder.
  
  Naomi froze in place. A gear in the clockwork stopped moving.

  Pain. Pain shoth all throughout Navel's body. Starting in his legs, he felt the pain caused by Umbrella's technology. Next came the pain caused by Doremi's Hyper Voice that seemed to rattle his whole body. Finally came the mental pain of watchibg Travis Touchdown getting burned alive.
  
  As the pain subsided, Navel did the best ge could to return to his face. "I could use a little help," he cried out to his allies in fighting Tony and Steve.
  
  Directly to Doremi, he says, "Do you think you could do that thing with your voice, but next time maybe, JUST MAYBE, not have it injure a bunch of your allies in the process?"
  
  Although there was a certain level of snark to expect from Little Guy, most of the snark now was deruved directly from the pain he was in.

  As Thor's hammer found itself slammed into the ground with a godly earth shattering crack, Miku found herself disrupted as the shock wave hit, debris and other nasty things threatening to find their way onto her.
  

  

  
  This feeling of unsteadiness was only amplified when, after a second of trying to regain her bearings, Miku looked up-- only to see the blurs of a high speed projectile of a person flying right towards her. It was gone almost as soon as she could process it, Clark appearing to vanish out of sight. It appeared several people tried to intervene with that near catastrophe for the young android, and boy was she thankful for that. It really did seem like these people had her back.
  
  Back to the matter at hand.
  
  
  
  

  

  
  Looking back over the battlefield, Miku just barely caught sight of the aftermath of Naomi being flung several feet away-- and witnessing Alice react accordingly. She watched as Ant-Man appeared full size once more, beginning to flee with Naomi giving quick chase. This was her chance to assist her. Averting her aim away from Thor, Miku tried to take aim at the fleeing figure of Ant-Man. She probably wouldn't be able to hit a moving target like this, but at least she'd be able to help distract him or something... Right?
  
  Steady hands, steady aim. BANG!

  And that was precisely when she made her move, having just been skirting along the battle and waiting for a good opportunity...though that pained incentive helped. A blast of crimson energy shot through the air, aimed to crash right into the good Captain while he was distracted. A moment later she lowered herself closer to the ground. "Oh my my..."
  
  

  

  
  
  "Hope I didn't break your concentration. Actually, hoping more for broken bones, myself. Better fun that way."

  (Thor&AntMan Fight)
  
  Twisted Fate's muscles had gotten sore from throwing all of those cards. He rested for a moment before preparing another deck. Instead of throwing more cards, he hesitated, unsure of what to do next. His moral compass was all over the place. Previously, T.F was fighting because his opponents didn't seem human to him. They were just blank cards. He didn't know their personalities, their families, their hobbies, or anything that distinguishes humans from one another. Ant Man's manner of speaking reminded T.F that he was another man like himself. In fact, the Avenger's personality was quite humorous. T.F hesitated several times when he was preparing to throw more cards. He thought about how the Umbrella corporation was forcing him to fight. Damn them. I ain't doin' it.
  
  Twisted Fate looked towards Kujou, noticing her hesitation and apprehension. His heart smoldered with rage. He wanted to turn around and kill every single Umbrella employee. He had enough of their torment. The sad part was, he would die if he tried to do that. The thing in his head would prevent him from doing so.
  
  Just then, he realized something. One of the benefits of being a mage was having the ability to control power. All he had to do was channel less power into his cards. As a result, his cards would look like they were imbued with magic, but they would do small amounts of damage. Hopefully, his opponents would recognize this.
  
  

  

  
  
  He threw his deck into the air, causing a number of cards to float around him like a tornado. He would pursue Ant Man, throwing explosive red cards in an attempt to hit him with the splash damage. At the same time, the tornado of cards flung themselves one by one toward Thor. Of course, the damage would be minuscule. It would look like it hurt, though.
  
  Twisted Fate almost collapsed when Travis was killed. One of the many deaths that he predicted just happened. And there were much more on the way. His face strained under the pressure of his foresight, and his emotions.
  
  "Argh..."
  
  He tried his best to ignore it and continued throwing cards.

[The Unknown]

Zerberus watched other people falling to the ground. Zerberus then shoved other people aside. He was determined to protect them, but he had to take one of these people down. He was walking toward Ant-Man. His blade was glowing bright pink as it then made his blade more deadly. This was a style called Blade Charge. He point the blade at hims as the pink aura then extended the weapon's reach a few feet. His eyes still filled with hatred as he then points his blade in the air. He flickered into the other armor and his face was different. It felt.....creepy....



Zerberus then flickered back into his armor.

"Barrier!"

Zerberus's blade shot a bright light into the air, causing him and Ant-Man to be contained in a see-through barrier. He flickes his blade around as he then points it at him.

"I'm sorry.....I don't want to fight you but if I don't....my friends will get hurt.......You understand....right? You will be my oppenent...."

A few tears fell from his face. If he were to die.......he was happy to die protecting his friends. Zerberus then jumped into the air and bring his sword downward on him.

The first thing to reach Thor ended up being one that even caught him by surprise and quickly wiped the smug exterior off his face; Clark's sheer speed blitzing him through the nearest building where he landed on the other side of the ground. Though his godly durability made sure he ended up okay ultimately, that was not a blow that the God of Thunder took lightly, the blonde man wiping his face off as he stood his ground again.

"... Alright. Maybe this might be a mild challenge..." He muttered, clutching his trusty hammer tightly. As all the others who wished to challenge him seemed to follow suit, he prepared himself for battle again, quickly analyzing his surroundings and taking note of what the ideal strategy would be.

The god easily enough blocked every bullet that came his way from Shirou and Miku with his metal vambraces, as though he were able to see them coming decently well. For the moment, his main concern seemed to be Clark. Faster than a speeding bullet, he really was, but first, he needed to get these flies out of the way. Or so he'd believed. As Cagliostro's magic did its work, putting immense pressure on Thor, the god found himself hardly able to move. It was quite the sticky situation, but if this wasn't something he was able to handle, then he wouldn't be able to call himself mighty.

"I know not what black magic you possess, fiend, but by the power of Mjolnir..."

Mustering as much strength as he could to resist the Collapse spell, Thor raised his hammer and slammed it into the ground, creating another mighty shockwave that rocked the area around, once again with the intention of sending everyone on the ground off-balance and interfering with their focus.

CRASH!

But he was far from done yet.

"I will best you all!"

From the smokescreen he'd generated with the debris, Thor swooped in from the side at godly speeds, smashing his hammer into Clark's side and hoping to send his body flying straight at Shirou and Miku, before focusing his attention on Cagliostro next, as he'd generate lightning with his hammer and cast it, firing a bolt right at the alchemist!

@Josh M @Crow @Sen @Kaykay @Kaide` @ThorFight​

​

"Tch."

Shirou clicked his tongue as Thor effortlessly blocked his bullets. Another freak who could shrug off bullets, huh? That was annoying. Seriously annoying. Inhuman monsters that defied reason.

Though, after taking over a Holy Relic, he had to say that he was the same.

Even as the ground quaked beneath him, Shirou seemed unhindered. His footing remained stable, not making any obvious visible effort to regain balance. As Clark came flying, he deftly stepped aside. If it was going to be this kind of battle, then he'd simply follow suit. This wasn't going to be a battle between humans. Shirou put away his pistol and stood up straight.

"Formation..."

The second level of the Ewigkeit formula. Chains began to surround his body, focusing around his right arm.

And then he was gone.

With superhuman speed and strength, his fist flew forth towards the God of Thunder's face.

@Josh M @Crow @Sen @Verite @Kaide` @Gands​

This was all disorienting. The ground shook, causing the man of steel off the ground, suddenly however? Road saved him. Looking at girl, Clark smirked!"

"Noted. Maybe you aren't as bad as you think."

With Road's warning, Clark thought he could make a clean dodge.. However, Clark had one issue. Mjolnir nipped Clark's hand. As he was running away, Clark felt the pain, tumbling the ground. Shocking himself and maybe Road, Clark shout in pain. Clark frown. This was something he feared, one of his few weakness

"His Hammer.....it's magic."

Stumbling up, anyone who saw Clark noticed his right hand was hurt. Clark knew now, sadly, he need these people's help. Being a former quarterback, though skills now kicked in. Some needed to play call.


"Fallback! We need to work together!"

As two people fought Thor up close, Clark flanked the god from a far with powerful heat vision.

Around that time, Blake's PWM cube had just run out of power, the wings disappearing and soon made gravity relevant to him again.

"Falling! Aw crap, aw crap, this wasn't on the plaaaaan!!"

Ugh, backup plan, I need a backup plan. I can try to direct myself to land on something... Or to grab onto... No, not enough time...

Blake was running all of the possibilities on how to lessen the fall damage, his eyes darting everywhere. It was like he forgot about others willing to catch him... and there had to be someone willing to, right?

Steve's shield ended up missing Jaffar by inches and he called it back to himself, allowing him to hold it up to deflect the gunfire aimed his way.

"Unarmed?" Steve barked, looking toward Penny. He had to bunker down, crouching behind his shield to protect himself from Schala's attack. "They sent unarmed people out here?!"

When the attack was over, Steve stood to his feet. He flinched as the car he had tossed toward Penny was thrown his direction, but it landed in a heap to the right of him. Steve looked toward the source, spotting Cullen with a strange growth of tentacles sprouted from his back.

"Yeah, he's unarmed, and none of us want to be here!" They tentacles on his back twitched and shivered, reacting to Cullen's anger. "They don't care whether we live or die, and we're only fighting or else Umbrella will start firing on us! They want us to kill each other, but anyone with half a brain would realize none of us should be doing it."

Cap shot a finger toward those fighting with Thor, shaking his head. "Then what do you call that?! We will protect ourselves first and foremost!"

"That's why this is so utterly daft. We'd stand down if we could." Cullen took a deep breath, his tentacles receding back into his body. "I don't really care, however. All I know is that the Captain America I'm familiar with would be doing everything he could to get us out of this situation. That's what you superheroes do, isn't it? If we all just--"

Cullen let out a sharp cry and his legs buckled beneath him. He knelt on the pavement, clutching his head. It wasn't long before others were falling, all those who seemed unwilling to fight.

"Tony, we have a problem--"

"A little busy!"

Tony twirled himself in the air, turning his body horizontal in an attempt to send Jason flying into Blake above. Whether this worked or not, he shot a burst of energy from his hand that cut the grapple hook in two, assuming it was still connected to him.

It was then that an explosion rang out. Fire rained down from the sky, dancing around a ball of flame. For those that had been paying attention, they would have seen that Travis Touchdown had been consumed in the explosion.

From a distance stood Krauser, a rocket launcher nestled on his shoulder. One of the armored cars was behind him, apparently having provided him with the weapon. "That was an example," Krauser said over the radios. "Now kill them!"

The pain then receded, for the moment. It seemed Umbrella was allowing those who weren't willing to fight a chance to change their attitudes.

Jason was surprised when Tony literally cut the wire from his Zip-Kick in half. He used the same wire that Bruce used, and he could only name around two or three people that could cut his wires in half like that. Sure, he could easily replace the wire later, but the point still stood. These guys meant business. But for now, Jason was about to fall to his death. Until Blake grabbed him by the arm.

"Thanks." Jason said, breathing heavily. When all seemed like it was finally going according to plan, Blake's wings ran out of power and they began to fall. Well wasn't that just peachy? Well luckily, Jason had a backup plan.

Jason would quickly pull himself up from where Blake held onto his arm, only to grab onto his waste. He would then release Blake's grasp before tugging out his grapnel gun and firing it onto a nearby building. Just as they landed on the building, the explosion which killed Travis Touchdown happened, causing them both to roll across the building. Jason would quickly get up and stumble a bit before looking at the body of Travis Touchdown.

"Ugh... those psychotic fucks!" Jason yelled before looking at Blake and then to Tony. Well, it looked like he had one last resort. Jason would approach Blake and look him dead in the eye. "I swear to fucking God, you'd better not tell anyone about what I look like. Last thing I need is people asking questions, got it?" Jason asked before backing up and lifting his visor. He'd then take the visor off completely before setting it on the ground, causing his face to now be covered in what appeared to be a plain red tactical visor. The blue spots of his suit also now turned red. Todd then took out his dual handguns. Jason pumped one in the air, causing what appeared to be the butt of a sniper rifle to form. A scope would have now formed on the other pistol, along with the barrel of the pistol forming that of a sniper as well.

"Your move, kid." Jason said, his voice now sounding like a regular human being's without a voice synthesizer.

Well, Jason and Blake seemed to be alright, leaving Setsuna feeling safe to resume her assault. Well, up until the man of iron blasted the former out of the sky, leaving him to free fall to what would likely be his death if nobody were to catch him. While the blonde was completely ready to catch him, it appeared Jason had swooped in with the same intentions, saving her the trouble. So, back to the fight it was.

Or, that'd been her intentions, when the explosion suddenly went off and snagged her attention. Realizing what had happened, a horrified look- the first real expression of emotion aside from determination to be seen from her -crossed her face. One of her comrades had been killed in that explosion... And being as she had no real master at the moment, all of her comrades were under her protection. Once again, she'd let someone down.

"..."

Hands clenching into fists, Setsuna shook it off, aiming to take what was hopefully a distraction to Tony- the explosion -as an opportunity to lunge at him in the air from behind and fire off another harsh punch at his back.

Noticing that Setsuna was going in for a punch to Tony's back, Jason took this time to take aim at Tony via the sniper. Setting it up at a good vantage point, Jason fired towards Tony's chest or back depending on which way he was facing.

Alice's fury was halted for a moment as she heard the explosion. Looking over she gasped, actually stunned into silence. Travis Touchdown, the No More Hero, the hero to all assassins dreaming of getting away from the UAA...was dead. The man who represented hope, a means of freedom from a life of violence and destruction, a symbol of life beyond all the death...killed by a single rocket launcher.

She didn't know what to think. What to process. Had they known he was the No More Hero? Had they cared? Was that why they killed him, to send a message of how expendable they all were? Would they kill everyone else, too? Miku, Naomi, Blake, Azura, Joshua...they all had names. They were all people. People, damn it! But they were nothing more than weapons to Umbrella, to be thrown away at a moment's notice.

If Alice had any last pieces of her heart still intact, they had just broken. She was right: she would never be free.​

Lucifer watched as the other man blew up. Yup, these people weren't kidding. He looked at his gun and had an idea. It seemed from what he had learned, Hammar man was magical hammar men, Stars and stripes used a shield, not here was little not here and Tin can was slightly impressed tin can. He debated with himself on who posed the most threat. It seemed that everybody had someone covered, except him. He debated quietly what to do and decided to help with the Ant-man fight. His first action was to shoot a bullet out of his gun and then to manipulate it with his telekinesis towards Scott Lang, non-fathal for now, small leg.

Meanwhile, Linda did her best to shoot Ant-man also.
