[IC] Academy of Heroes and Villains

[KatherinWinter]

Katherin studied the earpiece given to her. She had seen similar devices and knew how they worked, but she had never actually used one. She wondered how it would handle extreme cold. If she went Cryokinesis would she damage it? Still it would be useful in communicating with others. Hoping she wouldn't break the device, Katherin carefully fitted it into her ear.

[knight125]

Anthony simply chuckles at the numerous signs of distrust and says, "You all have your jobs, better get started." He accepts the earpiece with a nod, and surveys the street for a vehicle. He spots a discarded motorcycle nearby with a helmet on the ground next to it. He hops on the bike, hands the helmet to Sue and says, "Let's go." Once Sue gets on the bike, Anthony races away from the scene. The motorcycle allows him to weave through traffic and panicked pedestrians alike as he zooms out of the city.

Ben shrugs, "Well, there's no time like the present." As he sprints toward the Hulk, he yells out, "Hey Shrek! You're pretty far from the swamp!"

Hulk, ever the gentlemen, responds with a salutatory grunt, "Puny bug." After the jovial greeting, he then sends a welcome gift of two cars, a lamp post, and a city bus.

As Ben finds out that the Hulk is less than pleased to see him, he prepares to dodge any attacks. To avoid the cars, he simply sidesteps them and runs along the wall of a nearby building. At the sight of the lamp post, Ben flips off the of the building, lands on the post, and before it crashes to the ground, he runs along it before leaping off and bursting through the rear mirror of the bus that followed it. He climbs through the bus quickly, then jumps through the windshield, which sends him on a collision course with the Jade Giant. Ben twists his body in a way that directs his flight over the Hulks shoulder, which he then pushes off of with both feet. He hits the ground with a roll and continues running, hoping the Hulk will continue to chase him. After a few steps, Ben falters for a moment, and what looks like a red mist is visible for a split second between him and the Hulk. Ben regains his footing and continues to sprinting away.

Austin replied to Esuteresu's thought," understood. Right now were having him chase us out of the city, or at least he thinks. We will try to not use physical force." He then took off, basically preforming parkour, not stopping or adjusting his oath for anything. His claws were out, his pupils shaped like a cats. He launched himself up a building, his claws scraping against stone. He then raced across, reaching Anthony then jumping off, landing with a roll beside Ben, almost immediately running again. He said," nothing like outrunning the hulk." He wasn't yet running full speed, just fast enough to keep up. He was bare feet, his claws scraping on the ground, giving him optimum traction. He then said into the ear piece," Connor, where is the clearest route out of the city? Me and Ben got him on our tail."

[Avanhelsing]

Jack had no idea what to do about this. Hell he was not all that great at this. He watched Ben do whatever he was doing. He manage to run out of a side alley and follow after them sprinting just as hard. "Well this couldn't get much worse!" He yelled as the hulk chased them.

[[gah! wut is happening?! im gone for a whole day and suddenly the Hulk is chucking things around XC I dont know wat to do.... *cries in corner* ]]

[SomeoneSomewere]

( I'll send you a pm to explain )

[MarshiestMallow]

Phoebe followed after Austin and Ben, but stayed out of sight of the hulk, ready to redirect him with her power if something happened.

Connor took to the skies,examining the area, then replied telling Austin where to go, "turn left, then...go straight for about four streets then right, go straight until
You get out. Hopefully all is well"

[KatherinWinter]

Katherin swore to herself that she would spend more time jogging once this was doing. She was having a hard time keeping up. But that could be a good thing. If the Hulk lost interest in the others it could be handy to have someone behind him to encourage him to go the other way once again.

[Avanhelsing]

Ryan ran next to Phoebe. "Well this is fun. Sprinting at a quarter of my speed being chased by some freak. Just another day in the life. Am I right?" He asked jokingly.

[knight125]

The Hulk roars in frustration as more and more of the puny humans surround him, staying perpetually just out of reach. He spots Connor flying above him, so he leap into the air and swats at Iron Man's son. He then turns his attention to Austin and Ben. He picks up a nearby limousine, and attempts to smash the two boys into the ground with it.

Seeing the danger, Ben leaps at Austin and grabs him by the scruff of his neck before leaping again to get out of the way. Unfortunately, Austin was heavier than Ben had expected, so when Ben leaped the second time, he loses his grip on Austin. This causing Austin to fall to the ground, with the limo racing through the air toward him.

[MarshiestMallow]

Connor flew out the way of the hulk, then seeing the danger to Austin, didn't hesitate, holding up a hand, he sent a blast at the limo, even as he flew towards it.

Phoebe laughed, "all in a days work!" She watched Ben grab Austin, saw Austin fall, raised both hands, vines growing, trying to wrap them around the limo and pull them away even as Connor shot at it

[SomeoneSomewere]

Austin yelped when he was grabbed by his scruff, knocked off balance. He quickly scrambled onto all fours and launched himself out of the way, easily adjusting to the change in his stance. If not for Connor and the plant girl whose name he can't remember, he still would have been crushed. He got to both feet and said," next time, warn me. I have superhuman speed." He called," thanks!" He then turned and roared at the hulk, taunting him before running again, looking at Ben for him to follow him. He started to take the turns and Connor told him to. He looked back, trying to keep an eye on the Hulk while not crashing into cars or buildings.

Ending her efforts Esuterura returned her senses to normal and came back out into the open. From what she gathered the Hulk was fighting some inner battle. But he was already too angry for her to make any significant headway as she had hoped. Scoffing she thought to herself, Stupid creature. By now her fellow students had led Hulk a good distance away. She was going to have to do some catching up if she wanted to try anything else.

Waving her hand she began swirling a stream of wind into a loop. After building it up she whipped it around behind her and propelled herself forward at an angle as to avoid a majority of the obstacles in her way. She did this several times and made short work of the trip. She arrived in time to spot the limo hurdling toward Austin. It looked like the others had it though so she let it be. Taking position behind the case she began running normally. She saw no reason to draw attention to herself when the Hulk was already going where they wanted.

[Mistress Dizzy]

Kijani didn't waste time either, and flew off on her giant paper airplane. She kept to the edges of the battle, throwing her paper blenders like knives to keep the Hulk herded while the boys did the running. She didn't want to admit it, but the airplane trick made her tired. But she kept on, staying up with the group. She knew this city- she'd been born in the Hamptons so New York City wasn't too unfamiliar.

"I hope Sue and Anthony are okay..." She murmured, pretty much forgetting about the earpiece.

[MarshiestMallow]

Connor angled back up, relieved his friend hadn't been hurt. "Alright, there's a group of people up a head, so let's take a left then a right to bypass them"

Phoebe stared, shocked "did I just actually save someone?" She said ecstatic, starting to run again thrilled

[Avanhelsing]

Jack had dove out the way at the last second. The limo just barely missed him. He kept running he was curious if he should attack it. Maybe not. "I hope Sue and what's his name are ready. " He said still keeping base with the two if them. Even though it seemed the Hulk wanted them dead more than him.

Ryan kept running next to her. "It would appear so. Good job!" He said managing a smile as they kept running.

[Mistress Dizzy]

"I'm on it." Kijani burst ahead on her paper airplane until she met the crowd of civilians. She yelled down to them. "Stay here and don't start running! We're going to lead him right around you! Just... don't get in the way!" She gave them the best smile she could muster and hoped they wouldn't be too stupid and panicky. Then she returned to the group.

[knight125]

As each moment goes by, The Hulk is attacked by annoyance after annoyance. The most persistent of these annoyances was a barrage of small paper shards. Hulk traces them back to their source, and having spotted Kijani, he leaps into the air, and garbs hold of the concrete wall of a building. He waits until Kijani's momentum xarries her to him, then grabs the front of her plane, and throws it to the ground. He then leaps at Phoebe, landing just three feet away from the young hero. He begins to reach for her, but is distracted by a lamp post that whistles by his head nearly strikes Phoebe.

When the Hulk goes after Phoebe, Ben leaps into action. He jumps onto the top of a nearby lamp post, causing it to fall towards the Hulk. Without pausing to see if his attempt to save Phoebe was successful, Ben leaps into the air, and catches Kijani. As he sets the girl down, an extremely subtle red mist floats between them, although the sight is obscured by their two bodies.

[MarshiestMallow]

"Thanks!" Phoebe muttered, quickly ducking out the way. She had no delusions that she was ready to fight the hulk. She glanced around trying to see all the class but not being able to.

Having lost the attention of the hulk, Connor swooped down "hey!" He set of a low powered attack, more of an annoyance. A tickle. "Come on, this way" he murmured

[Avanhelsing]

Ryan ran and pulled Phoebe out of the way as the hulk jumped near her. He managed to get her out of the way with help from the spider dude. Well one of them at least. The lamp distraction gave him the time he needed to run her ahead. "I think he's pissed. "

Jack turned and fired two webs at the Hulk while that speed guy tried to get her away. He was hoping that would get the Hulk's attention. That combined with Connor's blast hopefully did the truck of getting its attention.
