Arachnid slipped the goggles on and through the mist managed to catch sight of Surgeon readying his claws. The guy looked extremely dangerous but Arachnid felt that her powers should give her the edge to take him and she jumped down from the VTOL and stood face to face with him. The villain grinned at her as he charged swinging his claws wildly as Arachnid performed gymnastic moves to stop herself from being sliced to pieces.

During her melee with Surgeon her foot slipped on the mall floor and losing her balance she fell, Surgeon catching her in the abdomen as she regained her footing. Immediately she knew that he had cut deep and she cursed herself for making the mistake and her attacker for injuring her like this. Quickly putting her abdomen to one side she focused on her aggressor and jumped onto the roof of a nearby cart as he attacked her again.

As he slashed at the roof's support she managed to jump behind him wincing as she landed and delivered a punch to the back of his head before checking her wound realising she was losing a fair amount of blood.

May I begin beating on henchmen?

Listening to Rainmaker several things when through Arachnid's head mostly about the situation at the shopping center. She was concerned about potential hostages, whether or not the league was coordinating with the Chicago Police, what to do about wounded civilians, the safety of the building itself, how many henchmen were involved and finally she couldn't be the only one who thought that these attacks were pre-planned and. that league members needed to interrogate any captured villains to confirm that.

Raising her hand she spoke up "I have several. Firstly are we working with the Chicago PD? Have they taken any hostages? What do we do about any wounded civilians, security or law enforcement personnel? How many henchmen are involved? Has the buildings structure been damaged in the initial attack? Finally I don't think these attacks are random, this was planned, I think somebody hired these villains to try and gatecrash the unveiling of the league. If it's in anyway possible I think we need to interrogate any of them we capture to try to find out who hired them."

Samantha turned as a message played over the loud speakers as the founders were about to make there speech. "This should be interesting" she muttered to herself as the music began to play and one by one the league's founders were introduced. Personally she found the introductions a little over the top but the kid in her enjoyed the spectacle and hell a lot of people up there were those she looked up to in both her lines of work.

She listened to Zenith's speech intently, joining in with the applause and by the end of it all was looking forward to her evaluation. She knew physically that she was more than up to the task but her temper, trust issues and her former gang affiliation made her nervous about the one on one. It was then Zenith informed the crowd about the incursions in the city and she knew that this was a great chance to prove herself to these titans.

Making her way to Olympia she saw that several other already had the same idea among which a few heroes he had not noticed before, turning to Olympia she said "Where do you need me?"

Samantha quickly span a bench a bench for the giant a muttered a quick "Excuse me" before turning her attention to a conversation behind them she had been tracking. Since plucking up the courage to introduce herself to the metallic giant she had been scanning the get together and a few groups had caught her eye. There were the showoffs, the jokers but one group in particular had caught her eye partially because the man in the biker outfit she had seen earlier.

The group looked interesting to her there was the biker guy from earlier, a man in a blue jumpsuit, a girl wearing goggles and another man in a mask. To be honest they reminded her a bit of the cirque de la criminalité a travelling group of thieves who she'd sent to Rikers shortly before coming here. The reason she had cut her conversation short with the metallic giant however was the tone of conversation between the two masked men, the way one of them spoke was rather matter of fact and the cop in her told her that this could go south rather quickly. Particularly as the girl had interjected herself into the situation and the biker struck as a rather dangerous person.

She maneuvered herself to the side of the situation and mentally prepared herself to step in just in case, the last thing this place needed was a fight to break out.

Sat at one of the larger tables was Samantha Carpenter aka Arachnid one of the many heroes of New York City. The homicide detective tucked into her lunch and surveyed the gathering in front of her. The sight both amazed and terrified her, everyone from metallic giants, to powerful sorcerers & from the corner of her eye what appeared to be a man in biker outfit. The sight of the founders however took her breath away as she considered them to be among her idols and the chance to work with them was a big reason for why she had flown out to attend the league's opening.

FInishing off her food she got up and started to wander around the pavilion taking in the scenery and the music. The whole thing made her extremely relaxed and yet at the same time she was terrified. Her time in the gang and subsequent time in juvenile hall had made it difficult for her to open up to people and that was sure to hold her back with the league. She knew her temper and other issues would prove an issue as well and knew she'd have to work on them, less they bring harm to her new teammates.

Suddenly she heard a thump in amongst the general background chatter and turned to see the metallic giant bending over to help up the guy who had apparently tripped over him. Swallowing she decided to try to make at least one friend here, at the very least she could spin the poor thing a place to sit. Making her way over towards to figure she nervously extended her hand before saying.

"Hello, I guess for now I'm Arachnid and I'm a spider based heroine from New York City. I couldn't help but notice you lumbering around and if you like I could spin you somewhere to sit."

Imagine a mind controlling ringmaster, super strong strongman, human cannonball that can't be stopped once it gets going, snake charmer that controls mutant snakes etc and you get the idea.
