Casan: Havoc In Happy Harbor
"This is getting out of-", before Casan could finish that thought an explosion went off between him and Hunter. While it would free Hunter of Casan's grasp if he survived the explosion was unknown. Casan on the other hand would survive as his symbiote form was simply broken into pieces and scattered over the area. It did not cause pain but what came next would. The puck to his surprise released, what seemed to Casan to be, bolts of lightening that struck one of the fragments of him. Despite being separate from each other all the pieces felt the effects of the shock as the heat from it burned Casan. The pieces of his symbiote form which at first appeared smooth and liquid became rough and angular like it had become a solid within seconds. "The city is under attack and I'm stuck having to handle this madman. I need to end this", he brought himself together and once again as a large mass of black tar-like liquid rushed over to take down Hunter. This time he didn't just go for the arms and legs but his entire body hoping to keep him down to tire him out.

Josephine: Back to Work
The party was still going strong until the sounds and vibrations of explosions nearby were sensed. The nightclub fell into pure silence as everyone tried to figure out what was happening. "The city is under attack!", yelled a man within the crowd, "I'm on my phone right now and it says robots are attacking!". Everyone crowded around him to see for themselves. Once their suspicion was confirmed there was a variety in reaction. Some ran out trying to get home as fast as possible, others stayed for fear of being killed on the way home, while others still partied either out of indifference to the situation or because they wanted one last dance before they died. Sera's hallucinogen had worn off now and she looked to Josephine in fear, "Shit, what do we do?" she asked as she sat further back in their booth. "It's not safe here. My guess these people will get violent soon and you can't be anywhere near when that happens", Josephine got out of the booth and looked for the exit. "Come on, we're going to your place", she called out to Sera who followed close behind.
Once outside they realised the severity of the situation. Humanoid machines were raining down lazer fire on the city below as people ran is fear. The explosion left a pillar of smoke which could be seen from where the girls were. It was madness and she knee this couldn't have been caused by any normal individual. No it seemed her quarry had grown in number. While she suspected the "heroes" had nothing to do with this she was sure there was a metahuman behind the attacks. "Follow me, this way!", she yelled for Sera to follow and the two girls ran through the chaotic city streets dodging lasers and explosions caused by the sheer chaos going down. It took some time but eventually they arrived at Sera's apartment.
Once inside Sera sat down on the couch and switched on the tv, "Havoc in Happy Harbor as the hero team "Young Justice" fights an army of robots who have attacked the city causing a gas station to explode. The heroes have been seen combating the machine but unfortunately have been made the center of the city's anger as mobs have been seen throughout the city. When asked by our on scene reporter, Vincent Clark, members of the mob stated they are fed up with the collateral damage caused by the heroes and are saying no more to it. We'll have more information as the situation develops". Sera was infuriated, "Great, just fucking great! Not only do we have to worry about a psychopath going around killing supers but the whole city hates them too!". "The supers are a danger to the city Sera, people have a right to be angry"
"We're not all like that though!"
"No but you can be"
"You sayin' I'm like those assholes who robbed the bank earlier?!"
"No I mean that even though you aren't a danger now, things could change. And I'm not saying you specifically", that last part was a lie. Josephine did believe Sera could turn out to evil. She thought that every super had the the capacity to do wrong and so when she found one that did she executed them without hesitation. It was only by doing this that she could prevent them from continuing down their path of destruction. "Listen I need to get to my apartment, you stay inside and I'll see you soon", Josephine didn't wait for Sera's response. She dashed out the door and back into the battlefield that was Happy Harbor. Her house was still standing thankfully and she quickly got inside. "Those drones need to be taken out before I go after the ones responsible", she got into her costume and put on her mask. Once the mask was on Josephine was gone, The Pariah had taken her place. Grabbing the SWC-Volt Rifle from the closet she left her apartment and began her counterattack against the drones.
"Stun setting won't be enough to bring down those drones, she thought before setting her rifle to kill. She aimed her rifle upwards towards the first drone she saw and fired away. The shot met its mark and the drone went haywire for a moment before plummeting down towards the her. She quickly activated her hardlight shield and braced for impact. The drone hit hard but the shield was able to withstand most of the impact. However the force caused Pariah to stumble back a few feet. "The one time I'd actually ask for the heroes and they are nowhere to be found", however her frustration was put to an end as she looked up to see GA fending off the drones. "Good. Some air support"
