Icon watched as the “team” that Christopher Arthur was on the verge of falling apart before they even set out to end the crisis which was facing the entire world. One of the speedster twins, Boom, looked to be about ready to throw down right there in the middle of the headquarters with War-Pulse, who had just admitted to having played a part in attempting to poison the Lost Haven water supply. And though Icon agreed with Boom in principle, now was not the time for this. 

On top of that, Arthur and the three young metas from Albany were cracking jokes about the name of the terrorist leader. As Icon looked around the room, he didn’t need his enhanced vision to see that the majority of the group was getting anxious. Then the tension in the room was momentarily lifted when yet another young woman entered the fray. She looked to be about sixteen or seventeen, and as she entered she announced that she Boom had sent her.

Naturally, Arthur made a joke about the girl being a 12 year old, which set her off on a bit of a tirade of her own.



“[color=00aeef]You think your day is bad[/color]!” Eva shouted out, due to his rudeness although she probably wasn’t someone they’d expected to show up. “[color=00aeef]I was told this was a meeting of Heroes, like Icon over there. Not a Fetish Club meetup. I’m half expecting someone to break out the ball gag and latex. Uh. You’re not doing that, are you[/color]?”

Somewhat still embarrassed by her outburst she continued. “[color=00aeef]Look, I may not be Icon, and I may be younger than most of you. But I have a magic sword that can cut through practically anything[/color].”

While Icon found the outburst amusing, he did everything he could to not let it show. This group was facing something that none of them had ever seen the likes of before, and they proved with each moment that passed, that they were just not ready for this… at least not in their present state. 

[b] “Alright, that’s enough.”[/b] Icon said, hoping to reign the situation in a bit. [b] “I’m not sure if you understand the stakes we’re facing, but we need to get serious and get our act together, otherwise none of this will matter. So, maybe we should stop cracking jokes and fighting amongst ourselves, and figure out a plan to stop Pax Metahuman and bring down those domes. Or have you all forgotten what we’re supposed to be fighting for? There are people out there who’s lives are in danger, and we owe it to them to get out there and put this threat down, once and for all.”[/b]
