Rainmaker's Team
Gabriel's assault stunned most of the gunmen and took them out of the fight. Those that weren't were immediately set upon by the rest of the team including the revived Blast Girl, and they did not last very long. But their ambush had allowed Twister and Shade to vanish deeper into the mall and there was hardly any sign of the two villains. There was nothing but smears of blood on the floor and it was eerily quiet. Then the sound was broken by a faint buzzing, that grew louder and louder until it culminated in an eight-foot tall monstrosity rounding the corner.
It had multiple eyes around two large black ones and was covered in dark green chitin. It's wings carried it above ground and it's multiple claws scraped the ground. It caught sight of the heroes and screeched an impossible sound that shattered windows and assaulted the mind with it's intensity. Locust had arrived on the scene, and next to him a dozen henchmen and Twister stood. And half of them had civilians with them, innocent men and women on the ground with rifles to their heads. Twister held a little boy of nine in one of his tentacles, the boy was sobbing for his mother.
Twister snarled, "Let us get out of here and we'll let the hostages go. If not, you get to watch these people die before Locust eats you alive. You have a choice heroes, do you want to save these people? Or do you want your egos to get in the way and have their blood on your hands?"
Olympia's Team
Shank reappeared and raised his knife to strike. And then he got shocked and screamed at a high-pitch intensity that was unseemly for a grown man. He shook and trembled to the floor and was out for at least the next several minutes. Wenchang's sedative slowly worked at Bouncer and she was wracked with blow after blow as she struggled to maintain a hold on Wenchang. She never let go but she eventually succumbed to the blows and the sedative and dropped to the floor. Just then a loud boom wracked the air and Boomer flew up in the air and back down.
The villain had regained consciousness and tried to escape Graviton's hold by using his concussive blasts. He landed on the floor with a grunt but he fired a concussive burst at Graviton, sending the hero across the room. And another wave of henchmen arrived and began firing at Olympia and Sonata, forcing them to fight back. Burnout rose from the floor as well. The two had grimaces full of hate as they caught sight of the heroes, especially Volt. They both raised their hands at the group of heroes and began firing away, Boomer with his explosive bursts and Burnout with fire balls.
Pariah's victims
Natsumi's and Changeling's targets was wiped out, the terrorists had almost no time to react. In the space of a few seconds, a few of them had knives sticking out of them, one was knocked out, and the rest were unable to move restrained by Natsumi. A few other heroes came up on the roof, including a laser beam projector known as Redeye. She and the others knocked out all of the still conscious henchmen and began using their powers to help the heroes on the ground. Redeye's heat vision wrecked havoc on the barricade.
Shin's target was taken out quickly as well with almost no resistance. The rocket perch was almost completely taken out as the men were knocked out by the explosion. Strix's target was down to half-strength because of the mortar explosion. The rest of the overwatch positions were all overrun by other teams on heroes and the barricade was failing, until finally it broke and a massive hole was created in the barricade. The terrorists retreated firing bursts as they fell back further down the street. For several moments the fighting had died down. It was almost too good to be true for the team of heroes.
Pariah spoke again, "You've learned the second lesson. Don't falter, keep your momentum. Eliminate the enemy's advantage. Now let's see if you can learn the third."

And it's a very interesting bio, youve been accepted.

I like it. The Nox is accepted
I would take out the metahuman fighter, all of the League trainers have yet to show up at this point in the exercise. And the post was a bit much but I do understand you wishing to have "momentum" as it were. I'll let it go for now but please keep what Dblade said in mind for future posts.
And yes Dblade you can work up a Rogues Gallery.
Yog, This is my only RP superhero or otherwise that I'll be GMing for a while. If it makes sense I plan to have "stages" in an overall RP "continuity" as it were. Eventually this stage will end and a new one will begin in the form of a new thread that will be affected by the events of this thread. You can carry over your heroes or start a new one, though I think at that point you can probably play up to two or three characters anyway.
And I'd like to say that if you chose to do so, you can shelve a character by killing them, putting them in retirement, or whatever and start a new one if you really get bored. At this point you can only play one character but as I indicated earlier that will change eventually. And if you wish you could simply give me control of your character and I'll put them in my master GM Shelf.

No Rin your post isn't crappy at all you should have more confidence in your writing abilities to reflect your actual aptitude :)
And I agree Wenchang is quite dangerous, I've always said it's about how you use your powers than what powers you have.

Well yes I was operating on movie logic but if we really do want to keep realistic you could just have Blast Girl punch the window before she gets thrown through.
Sep, You're free to join and either of those idea would be fine
Dblade, the statement about the guns was a joke. The tongue should have indicated that and I am sorry that it was lost in translation. As for auto-hitting, I was not attempting to cripple Blast Girl. There should be consequences to pursuing villains without any backup and any knowledge about their full capabilities. She stopped herself from being taken hostage but the villains weren't just going to let themselves be taken advantage of. Twister has a lot of strength in those tentacles and with both of those he could barely lift and release Blast Girl, her high gravity accounts for the rest of the hit.
But to be fair to Vita, I will amend the post to say her character hit a rack of clothing instead of going through a counter and into a wall. and in the future I will take more care in these kinds of decisions. I apologize for any undue stress I have caused to any of you because of this.

Does Supergirl exist in this Universe? Perhaps as one of the people trapped in Kandor?
Diana listened to the story with growing amusement and she smiled as Walt concluded his tale, "Ha. That would have been a sight to see. Though I do not know what Batman would think of you using his reputation." There was some distance between this young new Leaguer and the experienced senior member of the League. Walt had not known any of the heroes long enough to really know them, and Diana found herself in a now rare instance where she could not use Bruce's name around a teammate. She was hopeful that that would change soon and that Shifter would integrate smoothly into the League.
She replied to Aquaman with a fair measure of boisterousness, "Don't worry Arthur, I won't let a little competition get between us. I'll even let you use your trident." She grinned and almost relished the thought of testing herself against the King of Atlantis. Aquaman was a prodigious fighter and his skill with his legendary trident was well... legendary. She had seen Aquaman cut through swaths of enemies with almost mythical speed, dexterity, and skill with his formidable weapon. Not that he was any less of warrior unarmed of course, but the magical weapon presented a challenge that the Princess of the Amazons wished to face.
She nodded solemnly at Aquaman's mention of a sunk rig, "I hope this doesn't strain relations with Man's World and your own too much Arthur. And I agree, even as Princess my duties are increasing. I can only imagine what will be needed of me if it is ever time for me to ascend to the throne." Diana would only ever succeed her mother Hippolyta if she abdicated the throne or died. The former was unlikely and for the latter it was even more unlikely that her mother's death would come of old age. Diana dreaded the day that Hippolyta might fall in battle and hoped it would never come to pass.
She was about to say something to Walt when the surveillance system lit up. She flew over to where Superman, Aquaman, and J'onn stood and examined the screen. A whole armada of ships was bearing down on them and at the forefront was a ship massive in size and of a shape that disconcerted even her, the Skull promised death and destruction on whatever it set its eyes on. And its gaze was locked on the tower. She watched as Mister Terrific hit the alarm button and the station was drowned out by the noise of firing klaxons and red lights began flashing with urgency.
Diana asked aloud, "Are they the ones who sent our alien friend? What is it?" At the same time J'onn spoke over the main communications line which feed into the commlink over every member and ally the League had, "Code Red. I repeat Code Red. The Watchtower is under attack, this is not a drill. All away teams are to report back to the station immediately. All personnel on station report to battle stations." The station became a flurry of activity, the transporter worked in rapid succession admitting heroes back on to the station as staffers turned into a flurry of activity and Leaguers already present began readying for combat.
Diana spoke up again to Superman, "All of the heroes with space-based combat capabilities, including us, should suit up. We should meet the enemy head on. Everyone who can't fight in space should load up on the Javelins. We throw everything we have at them and have the Javelin teams board the main ship while we deal with the rest. And do we have any defenses? Cannons, turrets, lasers, missiles, anything?" The Watchtower had been attacked before of course but never quite like this. It would be a battle of such magnitude that even the Muses would sing of it. And whoever was attacking them Wonder Woman would make sure they regretted threatening her friends.
