Alexei smiled as Melinda rested her head on his shoulder; this was just one of the few things good that were left in the room. Suddenly, Sparkles released a surge of electric currents; apparently tracking down the Mimics. It was only about a few minutes before Sparkles was back to normal. The fool began to smile and think that it was all over. Perhaps this was a trend to those faggots... always thinking that things can be easily solved.

"Really? Do you really think it's over? God, they'll just give the captain rank to anyone nowadays. How that team has degenerated." Alexei rolled his eyes; desperately trying not to draw his pistol. "Besides, Sparkles, we asked for a cure to the parasites... not firepower. We were enough to take them; what we needed was a cure."

Alexei glared intently at Sparkles; choosing the wrong words to say. To a retard like that, there's no need for manners.

"Have you heard nothing of what I said?! Heath, here, is even smarter than you! There's a DADDY... A father of these Mimics, and even if you kill the offspring, that parent is still gonna keep jacking off! The Mimics aren't from Earth. It is likely that they originated from somewhere else, and if they managed to get here, rest assured... they're still gonna keep doing so; no matter how many you kill." Alexei roared; unbelieving of this level of idiocy.

"But you know what you fail to see? That it's not the adult Mimics that are the problem... It's the way that they thrive... via parasitism. I know that you faggots at Team Bullshit can kill those adult Mimics, no problem... It's the Larvae Mimics that is the problem.. A PROBLEM THAT WE NEED TO BE SOLVED, AND WHICH YOU FAILED TO FIND A SOLUTION TO!" Alexei blurted out; turning to Nerdlord.

"I'm done talking to this Lightbulb, Nerdlord. Is there anyone else up there who is more into Cytogenetics, Pathology, Organic Deconstruction, or pretty much, someone intelligent to talk to? I don't really want to talk to a clown who was just born with the proper genetics." Alexei sighed; eyeing Nerdlord.

"Dammit Kam, remember what Dad always said about thinking before you act?" Enki-Lukas thumped Awesome on the arm, looking now strangely like a larger, more mature version of Kami, but brown-haired and unarmoured. Taking Kaminari aside for a moment he spoke more quietly, "We talked about this, you need to be more careful of people's feelings that a normal. Remember that time you nearly fried Rhonda's kids? She's still not talking to you."

Catching the grim, defeated look that briefly chased across Kaminari's face Lukas looked grim for a moment. "This is my fault. I should have been around more Kam, I know, it's been hard for you. We'll go and have a few beers, lay some ghosts to rest."
Kaminari's face softened a little, became a little more human. He smiled. Not the mad grin of Captain Awesome but a gentle smile, at being recognised and understood.
"It's settled," Enki/Lukas grinned, feeling the loneliness and uncertainty under the blazing steel exterior of his brother. "You can tell me about that business with the Alderaan Sisters," Grinning, EnkiLukas gently turned them both back towards the group. "Let's see if you can somehow clear the worms out of these people without frying them eh?"

Hollow had been watching and listening intently to the events going on around him, he was sure that these people knew how to help, or could figure something out at least, but when Kaminari fried the two mimics without a care in the world for the state of Mild's bar or thinking that there was a larger problem he suddenly wasn't so sure. He watched as Enki drew Kaminari aside and spoke to him softly and seemed to be calming the bastard down a little but when they turned back to the group and Enki had said that they would try to kill the worms without frying the group he suddenly wasn't so confident he would survive this. "Isn't there a way to kill these things without getting the shit shocked out of us by sparkles there?" he said as he looked at the other members of the group, "My family has a history of heart problems and if I get killed by this lightbulb on steroids I won't hesitate to haunt your ass from beyond the grave, I swear to god." Hollow didn't usually talk this way but he was pretty freaked out, he did not want to be turned from a Mildly Competent superhero to a well done steak in no seconds flat.

Kami nodded at his older brother. With great power came great responsibility, that was the principle he had been taught when his powers had been discovered. Of course, when you have the power to be everywhere in the world at an time, your responsibility becomes to stop every crime, to fight every supervillain, to save every child. Every single death was Kami's fault, for not intervening, a testament to his failure. "Yeah. Sorry guys, I'll fry those worms." The weight of an entire world on your shoulder would break most backs, but Kami's was strong enough to hold it, and thus it was his responsibility. He sighed, as he thought back to his childhood, an out-of-control kid with way too much power, capable of avoiding even most superheroes.

"Don't move, I don't want to fry your organs by mistake." He slowly reaches out, touching Hollow on the forehead. Sparks crackled over his entire body, as he focuses, trying to isolate an oddity in the man's body. If he didn't move, he SHOULD be able to burn whatever was in them. Of course, if it went slightly wrong, they'd need a new liver. Oh well, he wasn't called the most powerful superhero for nothing. "Just... don't flinch either. This might hurt a little, but remain completely still."

EnkiLukas stood quietly next to his brother, radiating reassurance, but not reaching out while Kami was concentrating so fiercely. Kami had power by the bucketload and was now trying something equivalent to gently poaching an egg with a flamethrower. "You got this bro..." he murmured quietly, "it's going to be fine" he added, meeting Hollow's eyes and nodding ever so slightly.

Hollow took a deep breath and stood as still as he could. He still wasn't so sure that it would work, but if it didn't at least being fried would hurt less than being eaten from the inside out. He met Kami's eyes and said "I'm ready when you are, sparkles." and he didn't move a muscle, didn't even breathe, as he waited for it to be over. Whether over meant his life or this experience is up for interpretation but either way Hollow was sure he was ready for it.

Kaminari breathed in and out, locating the source of the alien thoughts inside of him. An electromagnetic pattern that simply didn't fit inside a human body. He focuesed solely on that, on the movements of electrons, as he began speeding them up. His stare was one of intense concentration, as the voltage went up, slowly, and before long, Hollow can feel a stinging pain from the heat. But the creature wasn't dying. The heat increased even more, as Kami got frustrated, knowing that if this went on much longer, Hollow's organs would be friend. However, that was when he hit the right chord, and, with a flash, the creature's nervous system was fried. "Holy shit! I can't believe that actually worked!" Kaminari laughed at his improbable success, before looking around. "Okay, who's next?"

Alexei's eyes opened in doubt as Sparkles began to zap Hollow with his powers. Although Hollow was motionless, Alexei had this gut feeling that what the guy was experiencing something that was not pleasant. Suddenly, Sparkles backed off from Hollow; the look of delight on the man's face assured Alexei that nothing bad happened. The lad sighed in relief for his saved teammate. Alexei turned to Sparkles, smiling a bit gently.

"Finally, something good happened in a while." Alexei sighed as he turned to his team. He wanted everyone to be cured first before himself; in case Sparkles would lose his bolts, and feel tired... "Good job, Sparkles. You feelin' better, Hollow?" Alexei nodded as he turned to Melinda, and Heath. "All right, guys. You're up. Sparkles, here, will cure all of you." Alexei smiled as he turned to Sparkles. "Lessen the pain for them, will you? I don't want them shaking their legs." the lad turned to the two as he motioned for them to approach Sparkles.

"You guys will be fine. We'll be fine."

Melinda looked at Spakles working his magic around Hollow. Her eyes widened and her legs shooked a little. What if it stinged? She might send Sparkles flying away. She looked at Alexei seeing that he was worried, how sweet. Melinda walked towards Alexei kissing him on the cheek and smiling at him as she turned to Sparkles and slowly walked to him so he could use his whatever on Melinda. Yeah she was scared but she had to do it. "Go...ahead.."

Captain Awesome went past each of the members of Team Mildly Competent one by one, as he used his powers of electricity maniulation to rid them of the parasites that their bodies played host to. While there were a couple of close calls, and Captain Awesome nearly fried Alexels kidneys, it overall went rather well, and throughout the entire display, Mild could be seen practically drooling at the sight of Captain Awesome in action. Captain Awesome, of course, smiles brightly, sure that his work was absolutely perfect, and that those close calls were because of the people who he'd been helping, not at all his own fault. "There! Now, are you guys done? I'll stick around for a while to see if this fellow makes another appearance, but I'm a busy guy, and there are other parts of the world that need saving.

Alexei closed his eyes as one by one, they were being zapped alive in order to kill the parasites. Alexei smiled as he saw his comrades getting cured, and his smile became wider when Melinda was cured. After that, Alexei knew it was his turn. The lad stood solid in front of Sparkles as he showed no emotions. Suddenly, a burning sensation enveloped his system. Alexei endured the pain as he clutched his sides; feeling agony near his kidneys. Alexei swore that he was being killed on purpose, but suddenly, everything returned to normal.

Alexei fell to his knees as he clutched his sides; still feeling a throbbing sensation. Alexei's eyes darted to Sparkles, angry with the near-death experience... However, he remembered that everyone was cured... Everyone was already fine... for now. The lad smiled as he weakly stood up; chuckling silently. Alexei turned to his allies, nodding to them; signalling that they were cured already.

"While I am grateful for your aid, Sparkles... You already said it yourself: You can't be in two places at the same time. Sooner or later, you'll be going back to where you came from." Alexei mumbled; trying to catch his breath. "What we need now is an antidote or a measure against the parasites should they resurface again. While I won't doubt that you killed those Mimics, there's no telling whether their larvae have already infested this town's water system. I have some experience with Chemistry, but with that, I'll need your help." Alexei turned to Sparkles.

"If I'm not mistaken, you used Heat and Electricity to fry the larvae. All we need to do is to find the right ingredients that can trigger a similar effect; only safer in the human body. A medicine as you would label it." Alexei shrugged his shoulders. "If we can find the right antidote, the Mimics won't be any more of a threat. That way, you can go and save other worlds that need more power." Alexei suggested as he sat on the chair; his right hand still on his sides.

Heath wasn't going to lie, the de-contamination at the hands of Sparkles was painful. It hurt. Heaps. But Teleporto stayed strong, clenching his teeth and holding on tightly to Tanya's hilt. Once Sparkles was finished, Heath thanked him, before watching on as Alexei continuing acting as Team Mildly Competent's leader. The more he saw of the man leading, the more he began liking him as the main man. Alexei was definitely one to be trusted.
