"Guy's?!" called out the now barefooted blonde in the lobby of the Metro Tower. 

Shadows moved and swirled like something out of a cartoon. The man of living darkness shaped himself in ways that would truly haunt a person if they could only see him coming. As the heroic female in her civies tried making her way deeper into the HQ she was startled when a man bumped into her. It was the young hero Vibe also trying to find somebody with a clue as to what was going on.

"Hey!?" he said out loud before tripping over his own foot and falling to the floor."What in the heck's going on? I bet the guy without a face would have a few ideas..." Vibe continued to comment picking himself up and waiting for the barefoot girl to respond. However, from the corner of his eye Vibe noticed a shadow move and turned to blast it with his strange energy.

"We're not alone, Apollex!" he yelled before a shadow tendril grabbed him from the darkness and threw him like a ragdoll across the lobby and into some statues of Vixen and Robotman.

The generator room below the back end of Metro Tower was currently occupied by three heroes. The Blue Beetle, Champion, as well as the Lizard were looking into the power outage. The lights were out save for the red emergency lights and the exit signs. The whole thing felt like a horror movie. The generators themselves looked like a few school busses sitting side by side they were so massive. It was what younger members assumed batteries would look like for giant Japanese mechas like in the cartoons. Beetle came in a little late to the party and missed the thunderclap. 

"What happened? What was the quake about?" Beetle had asked, but before anybody could answer a spark shot up through an outlet on the wall and shot back towards the already damaged area. It grew larger and eventually the villainess Livewire came to life in front of the heroes.

Ted felt a sudden tigntness in his chest as the light took form. "Holy hell!" Ted exclaimed as he stumbled backwards and fumbled for his gun though he didn't know how much good it would do against the lady of pure electricity. 

"LET'S PLAY BUG ZAPPER!" Livewire screamed firing bolts of electricity at the three heroes before teleporting through another wall outlet. She bursted out of an overhead light and caught Lizard with a solid dropkick before bolting through the air again to dodge the would be attack of Blue Beetle. 

Finally getting his fingers on his BB gun, Ted fired a strong gust at Livewire only to miss. The frantic hero had to wait as his gun compressed enough air to fire again but in the mean time he loaded up his grappling hook in the hopes of grounding the glowing sack of energy.

As it was in the rest of the tower, the fortified panic room was quiet and dark. Perhaps moreso, what with the thick steel walls and claustrophobic spaces.

[color=black][b]"I appreciate the gesture, Lieutenant, but I'm hardly defenseless."[/b][/color] Bruce mused, a mixture of his trademark annoyance and a dash of bemusement evident in his voice as he entered in behind the mecha-less hero [color=black][b]"We should probably be looking for your teammates."[/b][/color]

[color=1a7b30]"And I appreciate your sentiment as well, mister Wayne. However, League protocol dictates that we put the safety of civilians as our number one priority... Besides, I doubt a power outage is much to..."[/color] the radioactive man began to reply, turning around to be met with what appeared to be the shapeshifting arm of Bruce Wayne. 

"You should rearrange your priorities, human." the would be Bruce cut him off and stabbed through the hero's stomach while nobody was around, similar to how he had killed the Ravager. He phased through the entrance to the panic room and took the form of the Question. 

"Did you retrieve the weapon?" the alien spoke telepathically to the Shadow Thief.

"Of course I did but I'm a little preoccupied at the moment!" Shadow Thief responded dodging another energy wave attack courtesy of Vibe.
