Her eyes snapping open almost immediately as she swung her sword down on the skull of her own brother. His agonizing screams still echoing through her mind. Her eyes darted to around the old bed in the church she had made her home, soon realizing that it was another abhorrent nightmare. [b][color=FDAD07]“Scott...”[/color][/b] She muttered, her hands grasping the edges of her bed as anxiety filled her body. It had been some amount of time since she had fought the abomination on the moon. She wasn't sure why she was having nightmares again, but she supposed the mind liked to taunt humans and gods about the same. She took a heavy breath as she stood up from her bed, moving her hands from the mattress to her face. She felt she had to remind herself that the nightmare was just her memories being twisted by her anxiety and guilt – they weren't literal, or the truth. She knew that had she stayed on Apokolips instead of retreating she would be in a similar state, another god fallen in one way or another. Before she could think too much on what she should do once she had gained her bearings her motherbox-enhanced computer had whirred to life, a loud mechanic chime uttering from its speakers. Bekka expected this to mean there were several issues she needed to attend to in Gateway City, but oddly enough this was not the case. Her computer had been tracking news reports on radio, television, and on the internet to keep her up-to-date with extranormal threats in not just Gateway City, but the rest of the world. As she reached the computer she saw one such pertinent issue in the city of New York City, a place on the other side of the United States. She found it curious that the city of Iron Man and Spider-Woman would need aid, but perhaps this was a situation where both heroes were unable or overwhelmed. She summoned her armor in an instant as she looked at the feed and prepared to use her motherbox to go to New York immediately. One thought echoed in her mind as she groggily readied herself. [color=FDAD07][i]What in New Genesis's name was [i]Giganta[/i] doing this time?[/i][/color] She unsheathed her sword as she prepared to fight the metahuman thief and enforcer. It had been a few months since their last “duel”. Without a second thought Bekka then channeled her motherbox and opened a gateway from her place to New York – ready to put everything she had in a tackle into Giganta's rightmost shoulder and attempt to take her down with as little collateral damage as possible.

She wondered if she should unwind a little with some out-of-state tourism when she was done with Giganta. [/indent]
