[hr]

Whatever conflict in the fog-covered alleyway that would've occur between Faust and the two individuals was interrupted by a [color=9e0b0f]MIGHTY SHOUT[/color] from above,[color=9e0b0f]ECHOING MENACINGLY THROUGHOUT THE AREA[/color]. [color=9e0b0f]"YOUR COVER IS NO MATCH FOR THE POWER OF MY DEMON ENERGY AURA, TINY HEROES OF GOTHAM!"[/color] The voice echoed, the words of whoever it was that spoke [color=9e0b0f]DRIPPING WITH VILLAINOUS MENACE[/color]. As quickly as the voice spoke, [color=9e0b0f]hot steam began to rise from somewhere in the fog, creating an updraft that dispelled the fog[/color] that Faust had brought. Without the fog to partially obsure the vision of those in the alleyway, the speaker became clear. A [color=9e0b0f]red-haired young man[/color] stood in an [color=9e0b0f]AWESOME POSE[/color] with a bat with a knife taped to it slung over his shoulder on top of a nearby dumpster. While one of his hands secured the weapon on his shoulder, the other was outstretched as he addressed the people "below" him. [color=9e0b0f]"HAHAHA! TREMBLE BEFORE, LITTLE HEROES! FOR I, GIOVANNI POTAGE, AM HERE TO TAKE YOU DOWN!"[/color] Giovanni declared, waving his free hand dramatically in front of him before a [color=9e0b0f]MYSTERIOUS CLOUD OF MIST[/color] began to build up around him, before suddenly seeming to disappear. Where he disappeared to became clear in a few moments before he reappeared behind Faust, having used the steam to give him a small boost of both steam and height. [color=9e0b0f]"TELEPORTS BEHIND YOU!"[/color] He shouted [color=9e0b0f]IN A MENACING DECLARATION OF ATTACK[/color] as he [color=9e0b0f]VICIOUSLY STRUCK THE BAGHEAD WITH HIS SOUL SLUGGER DOOM BAT OF MAXIMUM DESTRUCTION![/color] But as good of a baseball bat swing in a sneak attack as it was, it seemed that his target didn't dramatically fall to the ground as he'd hoped. Didn't help that what he'd intended to be a [color=9e0b0f]SUPER DRAMATIC VILLAINOUS LANDING[/color] had ended up with him awkwardly shuddering for a second as he landed beside Faust. [color=9e0b0f]"Ngghhh, that is not easy on the ankles..."[/color] He muttered to himself before awkwardly fumbling his bat back into a more intimidating posture. It [color=9e0b0f]EXTRA[/color] didn't help that without the fog, it seemed now, with the stick pointed at the baghead and the fact that the three of them were spread out across the alleyway, that they weren't a band of allied heroes but...

[color=9e0b0f]SOME CITIZENS AND A RIVAL VILLAIN!?[/color]

Ugh, beating up a group of heroes would've been a whole lot [color=9e0b0f]COOLER[/color] than catching a villain in the midst of a robbery off guard. Well, it meant he had less competition in this new city, and that was good, but [color=9e0b0f]STILL...[/color] Giovanni glanced from the baghead to the two citizens, leaping back in what was clearly meant to be an impressive slip from the grabbing range of whatever kind of rivalry he'd just declared by attacking this tall figure, but almost stepping on his cape in the process. He stood sturdily with his [color=9e0b0f]SOUL SLUGGER DOOM BAT[/color] as he assessed the threat much different from what he'd assumed initially. Giovanni said nothing for the moment, but any second now, he'd probably be able to come up with something to make him identifying this baghead as a [color=9e0b0f]fellow villain[/color]  not awkward now that he knew they weren't all heroes. Any second now..
