"I am getting in character of how to act like a villain," Jason said angrily. Nora rolled her eyes and folded her arms in front of her. "It is important that we understand our enemies and how they think if we hope to prevent more unnecessary death and pain." She might have admitted that last statement actually made sense... if she didn't already believe the boy was a total tool. Honestly how was anyone suppose to see the boy as a threat when he's got a spear in one hand and a soda in the other?

Aiden's voice came over the communicator. Nora couldn't argue that he seemed to be a natural leader. But, just when she was feeling more at ease, just when she had begun to compose herself-- "...we need to take a page out of the Joker's hand book." Obviously, the young man had never met the Joker or he would never had said that. Nora hadn't personally met the Clown Prince either, but being a Gothamite she was no stranger to the villain's psychosis. How could he even think of saying such a thing?! The Joker was a monster plain and simple. A monster to be feared, not emulated.

Before Nora could give the young man a piece of her mind, the son of Lex Luthor happily followed Aiden's orders. The curly ginger used the facility's intercom system to warn off the All-Stars and to threaten the hostages. The explosion that followed not a moment later made Nora realize, as she fought to maintain her balance during the shaking of the floor, that Julian made good on that threat. She sincerely hoped no one was seriously injured.

Casey, the little green imp, seemed quite gleeful to take up the role of a super villain. No longer assigned to protect the hostages, the little goblin did as he was ordered by young Mister Roth. “You heard Aiden," Casey shouted, "we need to get these slabs of meat back to where we came in!” The green-haired gremlin put some base in his voice to sound commanding, but it just made sound like Jason. Like a tool. “Nora, you and me with take up the rear," Casey said with a wicked smile. She in turn quirked her brown. “I’ll try and leave a trail of pixie dust behind us, but if that doesn’t do shit, blast them. Especially S’tann!”

Nora placed her hands upon the curve of her hips. She tried to place herself inside Aiden's head attempting to figure out his new plan. The girl was neither a strategist nor a mind reader so she could not figure out what the upper classman had up his sleeve. As she mulled it over Nora came to the conclusion that so far the team hadn't been doing a good job. Now that she took a moment to think about Nora believed more effort should have been placed on making sure the helicopter took off safely. She really didn't agree with placing the hostages all in one place either. Maybe spreading them throughout the facility would have been a better option. But, Nora was not the leader or rather a co-leader of the Squad nor did she want to be in charge. Neither was there time to make a suggestion Nora thought. The All-Stars were on their way.

Looking at Casey while activating her communicator Nora addressed her team. "[color=BA55D3]Maybe I should stay behind. Just in case the All-Stars come through this way. Maybe along with Casey's pixie dust I can help give you enough time to set up... whatever it is you're wanting to do. And, maybe I'll get a shot at Martian Boy too. If not then at least you'll still have Andrew.[/color]"
