Everything had moved fast, things had spun out of control quicker than even Rufus could catch them. His teammates, despite his direct suggestion, still continued killing the zombified citizens of San Francisco. When Lock and Load were killed Rufus felt the same kind of rage, disgust and regret that all of his peers did. He wanted to kill everyone last one of the zombies, the thought of vibrating his hand into their skulls.. Well, it was tempting. But he didn't. He instead dashed about, maiming and capturing as many as he could, while saving lives, both his allies and his foes. But then the shots rang out, and the people returned to normal. Rufus was sure that they still could chalk this into a 'win'. there had been 'acceptable' casualties, a few hundred inside of the tower, at worst. Or so he thought when he left the tower for the city to check that out. Finding it being just short of burnt to the ground at the hands of the Kryptonian. His mind went blank. That invincible shit had annihilated the entire city. How was anyone supposed to be able to rely on that guy? How would anyone be able to trust the Titans again?! The rage he, minutes ago wanted to use to kill zombies made him more and more willing to place his hand inside of Isaac's brain. He ran. *** Having seen the attack on the tower get launched by the military, Rufus had arrived in the tower again, just in time for the heroics to start. Pistolera was in charge instead of Thermo. It was the smarter choice, Pistolera had the second highest IQ after himself, and she had both the mental stabiltiy, skillset and tactical know how to be a Robin, should she ever have wanted to be one. He arrived as Isaac dashed into the military, about to kill even more poeple. He was going to head out and stop him right then and there. But like the saying goes; curiosity caught the speedster. He listened to what the woman said, having Zane open a portal to a new safehouse was smart, they couldn't stay here. Pistolera put Rufus in charge of sheparding the Kryptonian and the Boy-Bat. [i]Fanfuckingtastic.[/i] Putting him in charge of babysitting. Awesome. Microbat was already in the air 'helping' Isaac. Once Zane and Pistolera had entered the portal and it had closed, Rufus dashed out of the tower. Knowing full well that the psuedo alien had heard the orders Rufus had been given, he still tried to tell Accelerate what to do. He wasn't going to have any of this. He dashed around the soldiers, picking the clips from their weapons and disarming the tanks without hurting anyone, the exact same thing he knew Sentinel could have done, if he used his brain for anything more than to figure out which way to Smash. Though, he was taken by surprise by Sentinel's speech. For being a complete idiot, the guy wasn't a moron. He did understand that this was 95% his fault. He had alone taken the most lives by being reckless and gotten out of control. And like anyone would tell a alcoholic, the first step in the right direction is to recognize that there's a problem. Once the megaphone hit the ground, Rufus could see how Isaac was about to move. He wasn't gonna have any of it. He knew the Kryptonian would either jump into the air, leaving a crater behind him. Or he would accidentally break the sound barrier and make all these poor people's eardrums burst. A black blur was seen for half a second right next to Sentinel before he vanished, being dragged by Rufus to the outskirts of the city, where Rufus tossed the Kryptonian forward, forcing him to skid to a halt. "Let me be really fucking clear now, Sentinel." Rufus began. "I'm sick and god damn tired of you doing however you well please. You think you're invincible, but you're not. A run of the mill Magni could rock you, not to mention what a certain type of rock could do to you. You don't think before you move, you don't plan ahead. You create collateral damage everywhere you go, and then you have the audacity to claim to be even in the same league as Superman?! For fucks sake, you destroyed the city!" Rufus shouted at the top of his lungs, if the kryptonian even did as much as twitch, Rufus wasn't going to pull any punches. Taking a moment to regain his composure, Rufus looked him dead in the eye. "Pistolera wanted us to meet her in Star City. And we're going to have to fetch leatherface. We're gonna sort this mess out, we're going to solve this manhunt, shove it up Luthor's ass and clear our names. Once that's done, however. You and me are going to [i]talk[/i]. Now [b]move[/b] it." He wasn't even angry anymore, that red hot rage he had felt a minute ago had now cooled into a coldblooded void of emotions. He wasn't making a threat, he was making a promise.
