The tremendous blast spewed detritus out from the magnificent building, surrounding the blue clad hero. Much of the swirling mass of destructive energy and debris exploding from the building was being deflected by the shimmering field of ZPE that surrounded the hero. The façade, the plaster, the office equipment all crashed into buildings across the way and even back a few blocks. 

It was in effect a clusterfuck. It was something that the Splatterer was good at. Yet, through it the entirety of it, the hero known as General Freedom only swayed to and fro; having to concentrate to remain hovering in the air, his gaze never moving from the building. 

The swirling ZPE coiled around his form, flaring and sparking briefly. Clearly he had to eliminate this minor leaguer and get on with business, the question was how. Since the Splatterer wasn’t exactly known for his intelligence, perhaps the key lay in that.  Get the oaf from the building and beat him senseless in the streets.

Dropping to the ground, the beloved hero landed, his knees bending, his right hand touching the ground. Around him a dozen computers, office chairs, and desks lay scattered. Hundreds of thousands bits of paper swirled in the wind.  Rising slowly he glanced upward ready to emit a challenge when a tremendous burst of magical energy lifted him off his feet, carrying him through two buildings and into an armored car, which he tipped over upon impact. 

Kali had lured him with the beast and then struck. Shaking the cobwebs from his head, he clambered from the twisted wreck of metal. Through the hole he had created he spotted Kali. Gritting his teeth he began running back towards her when suddenly he was lifted into the air by her mystical arms.

Using her magic, she bounced the blue clad hero against the street, a building, and then, finally against the tall metal pillar that stood as a sentinel before the Ril-La and Melon Hed building.  That last blow caused him to wince in pain. The architect Vordak had built the building and its superstructure to withstand the mightiest heroes of World War II. This spire was made of nearly indestructible Carbondatium.  

[color=00aeef]“I am pretty sure he was trying.”[/color] General Freedom gasped as he struggled to stand, releasing a burst of ZPE around him. 

Breaking free of the witch, General Freedom rose again into the air, his attention focused on the woman below him. Rising he reached the level of the hole blasted by the Splatterer, however his attention was on Kali. 

Preparing to discharge a ZPE bolt, the hero flared the distinct cobalt blue in a scintillating nimbus of cascading energies around his body. 

[color=00aeef]“You made a big mistake Kali, you should have let Emo-Boy handle me before you showed yourself.”[/color] General Freedom said as he cocked back an arm, readying to fire a ZPE bolt at the woman frantically preparing a mystical shield.
