The cashier finished scanning and bagging Jamie’s items. “That’ll be… $40.27, miss. Cash, credit, or debit?”

[color=Goldenrod]“Uh, debit,”[/color] Jamie muttered. Her blue eyes glanced to the store doors warily as she put her card into the reader. She wasn’t entirely sure [i]why[/i] she was taking the time to check out. It might’ve been a better idea to get out of there before someone found her, but she wanted to finish her shopping before being plunged into yet another disaster. Nobody in the store seemed to be aware of what had happened, which was good- no one was calling the cops. Since Jamie had only told her friends her location, she couldn’t imagine that the EAGLEs would know where she was- but they knew where she lived, so she had better find someplace else to go after she finished at Target. She drummed her fingers on the cashier’s table as the reader processed her purchase, senses on full alert.

Then, with a deafening blast, a [i]thing[/i] burst through the walls. That was really the only way to describe it- tall and disgustingly green, with long, oily dreadlocks. Jamie curled her lip and readied herself for an attack. How had they already found her?! She knew for sure that there weren’t any Wings of Law on the group chat. That meant there must be a snitch. Jamie briefly wondered who it was before refocusing on this troll-looking dude. He yelled at her (which wasn’t very nice!) and then hit the ground, creating a rumbling shockwave.

Jamie, being intimately familiar with this move, didn’t even need to move away. She took the energy and turned it on its head. With a burst of her power, she redirected the shockwave right back at the villain with twice the power. The building shook, carts making clattering noises. A nearby window burst into shards of glass skittering across the floor. Troll dude was knocked off his feet and sent flying into a nearby wall, but wasn’t given a moment of rest before Jamie tried to crush him with a blast of concussive force.

[color=YellowGreen]"It's time for a clobbering, wouldn't you say?"[/color] a voice shouted out from behind her. Jamie turned, panting, and narrowed her eyes. [color=YellowGreen]"For the glory of Rome!"[/color]

[i]Really[/i]?! They had sent two? And she half-recognized this one too. She did her best approximation of a glower in Nero’s direction, but really ended up looking like she was pouting. [color=Goldenrod]“I’ll clobber right back at you- ohhhh!”[/color] Jamie suddenly realized who she was, and then narrowed her eyes in a real glare. [color=Goldenrod] “You’re that dickhead who kidnapped us! I’ve been waiting for this…”[/color] 

If they had been anywhere else, Jamie would’ve turned up her power to about an eight. But since they were in a Target, with innocents inside… she didn’t want to crush anyone. She wasn’t guilty of anything, and it probably wasn’t a good idea to [i]become[/i] guilty of anything. So, Jamie extended her right arm and blasted Nero, only sending out a mild shockwave to get him off of his rhythm. Then, while he was unfocused, she used her left hand to blast his legs. [color=Goldenrod] “You’re gonna have to try harder than that to beat me!”[/color] Jamie jeered, grinning.
