Alright, you find the mind-controller, I'll deal with the civvies.”[/color][/b][/quote] Carol nodded as she zipped up higher, about mid-length with the height of the sports arena to get a wider look of the surrounding area; it was obvious that the superheroine was better with a height advantage after all. As she straightened up she set out to do exactly as Flash suggested— to stop the root of the mental domination on the civilians by Lorelei and by extension stop her before she tried to get hold of the Fastest Man Alive himself. Fortunately even if Lani Ubana found a way to get her eyes set on the speedster before Carol could deal with her she’d likely have difficulty compared to the mob she had willed to attack Carol. The Flash had a very strong will, after all. [i][color=gold]Hm. Where are you, I wonder?[/color][/i] Carol mused as her eyes cut into the crowd, eager to stop the chaos before it grew from the arena’s parking lot. It was clear to her that Lani Ubana had obviously darted into hiding after she set the mob onto Carol only moments earlier. Ubana’s ability was strong indeed, but unlike other mutant psionics she lacked the depth and variety that made them dangerous beyond telepathy; ergo Lani held no telekinesis abilities or the stronger psychokinesis abilities. As she briefly thought about it she came to a question that hadn’t been answered: What energy slinging mutant blind-sided her in the first place? She shook her head, she’d find out eventually she was sure. That’s when she noticed something out of place— someone scattering behind the back of a Ford F1-50. Carol flung herself in an arc around the space above the vehicle. If it was someone on her “naughty list” they were going to get a face full of a contact sport of her own. And unfortunately for the mutant known as Lorelei, she happened to have picked the wrong automobile to take cover behind. Her jaw quickly met Carol’s fist which systematically sent the woman to the floor. [b][color=gold]“That’s going to be a bad one to wake up to.”[/color][/b] Carol grinned as she looked at the now unconscious body that was sprawled flat on the pavement. However… this was [i]expected[/i]. Another member of the Brotherhood had settled down inside a nearby white van, waiting for Lorelei to be chased down by either Captain Marvel or The Flash. Upon Carol’s one-two punch to Lorelei, the superheroine found herself quickly blasted in the side as the van’s doors swung open; the blast hitting her with a volatile energy beam which like earlier in the confrontation... blindsided her. Carol’s body slammed into the back of the pick-up truck, denting it from the impact as Carol groaned in annoyance. [b][color=gold]“Twice in a row? Really?”[/color][/b] It really was annoying. Carol cursed herself; for her to be this [i]sloppy[/i] to have gotten hit not just once but [i]twice[/i] by projectile energy was as annoying as it was physically painful. Carol was no god after all. She wasn’t Thor. [b]“Your interference is done with.”[/b] Wincing in a bit of pain she saw the mutant who spoke— Astra. Teleportation powers and a penchant for using expensive Stark, LexCorp, Hammer, and WayneTech weaponry against superheroes and occasionally non-mutants in general. Carol’s expression turned into a intense frown when she saw two other mutants come from the woodwork to her left and right. She didn’t recognize them. [i][color=gold]They must be new.[/color][/i] [b][color=gold]“Gee, I’m popular today. You guys sure are serious. What is The Brotherhood up to that this kind of level of distraction is needed?”[/color][/b] [b]“You’re not going to find out, Captain Marvel. We’re sending you to the hospital.”[/b] Astra seemed [i]confident[/i], but then again after you blindsided a superhero twice and had two lackeys to back you up it was pretty much a given to be sure of your plan working out. However, Carol wasn’t ready for her monthly medical check-up. Not yet. [b][color=gold]“Is that a fact?”[/color][/b] The blonde-haired hero cooed as she began to glow with golden energy.[/indent]
