After rendering one of the goons useless, Evan set his sights on the other side of the battlefield to support Psycho Spiral. He had the advantage of traveling between two destinations rather easily thanks to his ability. So, he continued to fly his way over to assist the D-Ranked hero with his ignited arm ready to use another close range burst attack. Along the way, he managed to dodge the rubble projectile mid-flight that was presumably intended for Psycho Spiral.

"I'll save you friend!~♥"

He yelled out as he was closing in on one of the goons who threw the rubble at his newly proclaimed friend, even though they barely knew each other. When he got in range, he used the same technique that was used against one of the goons not too long ago. A burst of energy pellets blasted into the goon's face, only this time Evan was really feeling the effects of coating his arm too long. At the same time, the goons would notice Evan ceased his leg jets after he stopped and attacked right in front of one of them. Looking like he is here to stay and battle alongside Psycho Spiral for now.

My arm is starting to really sting. I'm going to have to switch to my other one now...

With that in mind, the flames on his right arm were extinguished and the energy coating vanished to avoid further pain.

Ken watched as Terror-Wing merely brushed through the attack. Ken needed to keep his overload permanently on if he wanted to stand a chance. However, with Teror-Wing's final threat, Ken had to judge the situation very carefully. This time, he couldn't charge in, or Usagi and himself will both be dead. In fact, Usagi might have to get out of here. There wasn't much more the rabbit masked man could do. Ken would give Usagi the choice, but he himself wasn't running. What kind of hero would he be if he just ran away?

It doesn't matter what class you are, you can beat any of them!

"Kamen Usagi, I thank you for you're service. However, it's probably time you left the area. No one is dying on my watch, today." Ken stated. "You have the ability to become a great hero, I believe that much. Please, make your own decision." Ken added. Kamen then put his knuckles together, activating his overload. It wasn't going off this time.

"As for you, Terror-Wing, I can't allow you to leave here." He said, entering an aggressive boxing pose, with his left fist slightly infront of his right fist. "So let me warn you: Come quietly, or I will bring you down myself!"

Them Wacky Goonies At the Bank

"What kinda hero are you?! I'll sue you for molestation!" The two hapless goons roared out as they covered their behinds and scurried away from the evil psychic's homing projectile in a comedic fashion. Grunting and snorting like bulls driven to the point of madness by a matador waving their flags, their noses snorted and puffed as they began each uprooted a nearby small tree to use as impromptu bludgeons. They then whipped the ten feet high trees around crazily with augmented strength while dashing towards the perverted hero- vastly increasing both range and destructive power. Probably the only good thing about this scenario was that they were so mad that they actually sometimes slammed the tree into one another while thrashing about wildly, which only served to fuel their anger at Hiroshi even more. Still, they WERE getting closer... and then ironically the fire pellets slammed into the uprooted arboreal weapons, which turned them into FLAMING tree clubs.

Black Antler was indeed correct in that their formation led to them being good at going forward relentlessly, but not so good at any other ways of movement. Thus, disentangling and leaping away was easy. The time needed for them to turn around only served to aid Aka Rocket's strong sneak attack as yet another mook got smacked around town on his noggin and fainted, leaving only the two center ones entangled with their fainted comrades as dead weight. Seeing as they were all but magnetically locked together and the other two weren't awake to disconnect manually, the remaining henchmen decided to activate yet another function. A smooth ball popped out under their armored boots and began to revolve around like a gyroscope, causing them to spin in place until they all but became a black twister that homed in on Black Antler and Aka Rocket. Despite this extremely dangerous looking attack that was chopping grooves and furrows in stone wherever they went, the telltale sounds of gagging and motion sickness could be heard from within which caused the movements to become drunkenly and disorderly after only a few seconds of this.

Her attack had worked! Another of the power armored guys was knocked out cold! Reika landed on the hovering cushion of her boots, sliding backwards above the ground to avoid an immediate counterattack by one of the two remaining men. Though then they... started to spin. Really, really fast. Reika jetted back further, seeing just how badly they were tearing up the street below them. Getting close... it was going to be really difficult when they were like this! ... But... at the same time... were they groaning and gagging in there? Were they doing this without and protection from getting dizzy? AkaRocket almost felt herself getting dizzy looking at the mess in front of her, and it was clear they were starting to becoming uncoordinated and unsteady the more they spun around.

"... Er... wh-what do you we do?" she asked, uncertain. They were doing a lot of property damage... but at the same time it almost looked as if they'd soon knock themselves out without even getting close. This was just weird, Reika wasn't sure what to do in response...

It wasn't long before SUPER clean-up crews arrived. Dressed in silvery uniforms, the operatives quickly began to dispose of the mess that had been made. Namely the dead body of CrocoKill.

"What a drag..."

A rough, female voice came from the darker end of the alleyway. A series of footsteps echoed out from it, and slowly, a figured emerged from the darkness.

She had tanned skin, a black jacket, sarashi, and hat. She had long, wild black hair and green eyes. She was, perhaps, on the tall side for her apparent age, as she didn't appear as if she was out of high school. And yet she was someone that anyone in SUPER would recognize...



Bat Bancho, daughter of Bat Bancho, who was the child of Bat Bancho, raised her bat to her shoulder and rested it there, cocking her head slightly to one side. She gazed at the scene before her with an expression of mild disinterest, as if she was more or less annoyed to have to deal with this rather then ready for a serious fight. She particularly didn't look intimidated, that was for certain.

"I'm gonna have to deal with some lame coward who goes around preying on lower-rank heroes, aren't I?" she commented, before slowly, calmly approaching the two heroes and her enemy, one hand on her bat and the other finding the pocket of her jacket.

Aya's Apartment

"Eh-heh, um... I was made about... eight months ago now, I think! I'm the newest super-human-like robot, they made me as accurate as possible and then filled me up with all kinds of weapons, so that's why I'm a hero!"

Huh. Seemed pretty normal for a super high-tech era such as this one.

"Ah… I see."

After finishing the last bits of her soup in one gulp, Aya rushed back into her bathroom. The ramen was good, but getting rid of that spray paint stain so she wouldn't get sued by this robot's institute or whatever would be even better. Just like last time, Aya came out with a bar of soap, a bucket of water and a simple cloth. She looked down at Kiko, hoping the machine girl wouldn't think to weird about the stuff she was holding in her hands.

"So, uh… You've got this little paint splodge on your face, so I'll clean it off for you, yeah? I mean, I don't think the scientists back at your institute would like to see their latest robot vandalised by a certain B-Class hero. Just, er, sit still, 'kay?"

Aya then kneeled down beside Kiko and began to wipe the troublesome paint that had resulted in this crazy situation becoming a reality. I mean, technically kidnapping (but not really) a super human-like robot and having a bowl of ramen with it? For Aya, it was either she experienced extremely mundane situations (save for some superheroine ass kicking) or very awkward and unusual moments.

It was a very weird and silent few minutes, but the paint finally came off, much to Aya's relief. The woman sighed before sinking into her sofa.

"So… I guess you'll be leaving then? I mean, I've dealt with my problems, you've dealt with yours so…"

Aya lightly scratched the side of her face. How was she supposed to send this girl off? She didn't want to be rude, nor did she want to to keep her here even longer getting all sentimental for some reason. Plus, she was a fellow heroine, too. She couldn't just shove her out of the apartment and call it a day.

"Well, um… It was nice having you here, I guess. That ramen you cooked up was pretty good too! I mean, it's actually kinda nice eating ramen with someone… It does get quiet around here I guess-"

Shit. How did that just slip out? Fuck, now's not the time to be acting all sentimental! You're already looking creepy enough as it is!


"Uh, I mean, you can go now! Uh, hope I see you some time I guess? Ah, crap…"

It was just slip up after slip up. She needed to calm down before bidding her goodbyes to Kiko. Putting a smile on her face, Aya looked up.

"It was nice having ya here, robot girl. Hope we see each other some other time, yeah?"

Heading towards her art room, Aya looked back.

"Oh, and it's Aya, by the way. Aya Kagamine."

With the lack of help forthcoming, it was inevitable that Maria would get exactly what she wanted sooner rather than later. Particularly after showing what a 'gentle' tap with the sword could do to the wrist of an unconscious security guard. The researcher had caved and handed over the password, with the knight now displaying what could be termed a surprising level of familiarity with navigating a computer.

Unlike so many movies, the Undying Silence had both lived through the intervening years and not become a luddite. Particularly because technology might finally be able to solve the answer to her queries--especially if this formula helped. It was several steps back from the current serum, with warnings about uncontrollable, painful regeneration. In short: ideal for her purposes.

Make some. Fill a briefcase.

Another note. Another waiting game until she got what she wanted.

"As for you, Terror-Wing, I can't allow you to leave here. So let me warn you: Come quietly, or I will bring you down myself!""

Terror-Wing just simply grinned at this threat. He then issues a guttural chuckle as it turns into an ugly hiss, his mouth already salivating strips of saliva.

"Stubborn little fool." he remarks with an ugly tone as he prepares his own battle stance, "You've already lost!"

And just before he can issue another volley of plasma beams...

"What a drag..."

A rough, female voice came from the darker end of the alleyway. A series of footsteps echoed out from it, and slowly, a figured emerged from the darkness. Terror-Wing quickly cocks his head towards the direction of the noise, issuing another growl of unamusement. Someone else was here... A girl, with tanned skin, a black jacket, sarashi, and a hat. She had long, wild black hair and green eyes. She was, perhaps, on the tall side for her apparent age, as she didn't appear as if she was out of high school. And yet she was someone that anyone in SUPER would recognize...



"I'm gonna have to deal with some lame coward who goes around preying on lower-rank heroes, aren't I?" she commented, before slowly, calmly approaching the two heroes and her enemy, one hand on her bat and the other finding the pocket of her jacket.

Radon has heard of her before. In fact, as a human he had seen her on various errands around the city. He knows quite well that this is an A-Class hero he's dealing with, his first, might one add. He was able to kill E to C-Class heroes and be overpar with B-Class heroes, but never has he actually fought an A-Class hero, one that actually matches his "rank". He would love to put his abilities to the test against her, but he's already dragging in more attention then he should. At this rate, everyone will know the area where he dwells and will come after him. Of course, before he retreats, he might as well test the waters with this new A-Class hero. He laughs devilishly as he faces the new hero, one truly worthy of his rank.

"You seem to be mistaken..." he growls as he expands his wings, "It is in fact YOU heroes that walk carelessly into the jaws of death! Your heroes, comrades, allies, I've caused their casualties all just self-defense. Nothing wrong with that, hm?

I know who you are... A-Class. For years have I waited for this moment, for someone TRULY worth my time to come and fight, not these... moronic wannabes. But now... a true combatant has appeared right in front of me. It's time that I finally taste the flesh of a real A-Class hero!"

And with that, he raises to the air and begins to fly above her, firing several volleys of large plasma blasts at his foe. He must make this quick, to demonstrate his powers, and quickly find new shelter. He might as well move to another abandoned neighborhood after this...

As SUPER clean-up crews begin to clean up the mess, Ellis helped slightly with the operation too, as well as looking out for any unknown hostilities that may come their way. After, he'll quickly head back to SUPER headquarters along with the others.

Market District

“What? A kancho is completely harmless!” Hiroshi knew that was a lie, having been the victim of a few when he was younger. But! Those experiences only helped him to realize its… absurdly disgusting power. Hiroshi probably isn’t gonna revisit this attack any time soon if he can help it. But for now, he just relished in seeing the two goons flee and laughed at their fear. They eventually managed to escape his range, but he just left his weapons spinning on the edge to taunt them further.

“HAH-hahah! HAH-haha-hahah! HAH- No wait, what are you-” Hiroshi’s joy was cut short when he saw the goons just uproot a tree straight from the ground. The ball and yo-yo fell to the ground with a clatter and he went white with fear at the sight. Oh how the turntables have turned… table? This is why you don’t gloat! Karma comes back at you! If not eventually, then immediately! As the goons bounded back for him, Hiroshi’s first instinct was to RUN THE HECK AWAY FROM THEM.

“AAAAAAAAAAAAA-“ he screamed.

“I’ll save you friend!~♥”

A savior?! No… The B-Rank! The B-Rank would save him from this mess for sure! He didn’t even care that he preemptively called him a friend. So long as he bailed him out, he was definitely his frie—

…The trees. …The trees are now on fire. …There are now burly men with flaming tree clubs chasing him.

Hiroshi merely smiled and shook his head as he felt the world slow around him. “Ah… This is my life isn’t it…?” He chuckled to himself and immediately broke back into a scream as he sprinted even harder away from the two.

”AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!”

Whoops posted in wrong place. ^^

Kamen Usagi let out a deep breath, "Fuuuuuuu, I can finally get the hell out of here." He groaned, cracking his neck and heading back down the steps. This was a long day, but at the very least he had two higher ups witness to his heroic deeds. He rubbed the back of his head, "Troublesome crap." The young hero groaned, why did this have to happen today? But, it could be good news, maybe he'd rank up from this? Who the hell knows! "It's gotta happen right? Hehe." This was going to be great, it was time to get a couple of meals from the shop. With a quick pop, off came the mask and Usagi was reborn!

"Alright, Time to get some food~" He sighed happily, wait... no, OW! the pain! it surged through his body like rivers through land. "Nnnngh... Ow ow ow..." He groaned, he could feel his ribs slipping. "Alright... First... Super..." He groaned, placing the mask back on, just so he could call Super. "I.. Need... Help..." THUD!

It seems Evan misjudged the situation and made things worse by accidentally lighting the henchman's tree clubs on fire. Now they were dangerously charging after the two while swinging their new flaming weapons of mass destruction! Evan looked completely terrified at the monsters he created as he started to backpedal a few steps away from the brutes before instantly turning around, running the hell away from them.

"EEK! Run away!"

Of course, he completely forgot he could manipulate the flames to turn the tables on the goons. He managed to catch up to Psycho Spiral and sprinted along side with him in a comical fashion,. It felt like they were trying to outrun a pack of bulls...bulls who wore power armor and carried flaming tree clubs! Evan turned his head to Psycho Spiral wishing to beg for his forgiveness.

"I'm sorry friend! I didn't mean to help them like that! Will you ever forgive me?!...Oh, my name is Evan by the way!~"

At first he sounded genuinely apologetic with tears welded up in his eyes and snot coming out of his nose, but all of that disappeared in an instant when he thought it was a good idea to use this time to introduce himself in a cheerful and friendly manner.

Soon enough, Kiko had completely devoured her ramen. Inside her body was a high-power furnace which broke down any food material she consumed to be used as fuel. In essence, this allowed her to eat food just as a normal human did, another aspect of her design implemented to allow her to resemble a living person as much as possible. And it also let her taste delicious things, so she was always pretty happy about that. How else would she make ramen for people if she didn't know how it was supposed to taste?

She listened cheerfully to Aya for a few moments, but before she could open her mouth, the other girl was scrubbing her cheek. Paint? All this had started because of paint? Couldn't Kiko take a bath or a shower and wash it off? ... Oh well, it let her get to know a new friend, so that was nice, wasn't it? Of course it was. She smiled warmly at the other girl after the paint came off.

"Thanks!"

Afterwards, she hopped to her feet, but paused as she listened to the other girl a bit more. She sounded pretty lonely, didn't she...? That was no good at all! Sure, Kiko would have to be recharged, but that didn't mean she had no time for anything else, did it? It definitely didn't!

She turned towards the other girl with a grin.

"We can hang out if you want, Kagamine-san!"
