Then there was the impact and a sickening crunching sound. The gold and white armored figure still made not a sound of pain even when slammed with great force that smashed it into the side of a van and that left a momentary dent in the armor around the midsection. The dent however quickly smoothed itself over as the malmetal worked to repair itself and undo the denting blow. As the figure levered itself to its feet again the cannon mounted on the front of the vehicle spat out a burst of plasma that struck the hero from behind and sent him sprawling to the ground. Then it spat another burst, and yet another after. The white and gold armored fighter flicked both hands and this time two plasma whips flared to life. Both of them were sent flicking out at the superhero just as he regained his own footing, still straining under the weight of fire. It was subtle but the force behind the whip blows seemed to be greater than the earlier impacts that had struck the hero and as the whips wrapped around his legs the being tugged hard using the whips to hurl the hero into one of the pillars in front of city hall. Then again demonstrating either grave single-mindedness or overwhelming determination the figure turned and moving at a sprint charged towards Macros who had remained, watching with interest.
