The Den

On the roof, Flasher's choking of Vigilance was interrupted as Ocean Warrior shouted. Flasher instinctively teleported away to the side and dodged the beam. He didn't dodge Vigilance however. With the sudden disappearance of Flasher, aired flooded back into Vigilance's lungs and his gun hand jumped up to track Flasher. Vigilance pulled down the trigger until the pistol clicked empty. Several of the bullets were caught in his body armor but one caught him right in the forehead. Flasher stopped seeing and he tumbled backward over the roof. A few seconds later a crash sounded out and a car started honking furiously.

Scratch one scumbag thought Vigilance as he reloaded and started firing at the henchmen adding his own fire to the remaining escorts. MC's attacks hit several men, turning some into different colors or their weapons into harmless objects like flowers or guitars. One beam managed to hit the man of rock and his rock form suddenly changed into one of clay and bullets started to take chunks out of him as he slowed down.

The woman with the prehensile hair was about to choke the man she held to death when Joe charged in. The woman, who's codename was in fact Cersei, held the man in her hair as blocked Joe's punch with another tangle of hair. Then long strand of blond hair snaked at Joe and grabbed him by the neck, trying to strangle him as she brought him closer to her face. She had no idea her target was a zombie.

St. Francis and Pariah managed to subdue or eliminate a fair portion of the henchmen and the rest took cover behind walls and started slinging bullets down the hall. More were coming up the stairs. Stalker saw Morningstar raise her gun and immediately curled up into a ball and dropped her weight straight down to avoid the barrel of the gun, though one round did graze her side. She crashed to the floor and her foot shot out to try and take Morningstar's feet under her while her hand flung a knife at her.

The Hall

The EMT near Sonja said, "Sarin got a pretty nasty blow but right now she's still breathing. They're rushing her to the Hall and they have a chance of saving her. I put it about 50/50" he looked at Light and said, "We don't have very many healers, meta or magical, and they're all busy with critical cases. If you can't regen quick enough you'll just have to stand by." Finally the VTOL's arrived at the Hall and medical teams began carting the wounded to the medical bay while armed guards and security staffers escorted supercriminals to the holding cell. Abaddon himself was asked to remain in the Hall until Zenith arrived. No doubt their arrival would be noted by everyone else already at the hall.
It's a great sheet but there are a few minor issues.

1. I'm not exactly sure what the extent of his powers are. Can he control wind, electricity, and such with the fine control of an aerokinetic or electrokinetic? Or is it just a general effect of his weather powers? It should be the latter otherwise that would make him too powerful over people like say Volt.

2. I don't think Syria ever engaged in that kind of activity against America, at least not to my knowledge and everything pre-2012 remains intact in history.

3. In a war-torn region like Syria there will probably be butt-loads more metahumans than just a few dozen. A person can be awakened by a lot of things and all the trauma of war might even breed more metahumans per capita than in the US. And being where historical Mesopotamia used to be, there would probably be some supernaturals as well.

4. Right now it's pretty difficult for anyone to be an American Citizen much less a former military operative who is a metahuman from an estranged nation like Syria. If he's in America he's probably not there legally. A lot of superhumans have being fleeing to the country because of violence abroad but someone with his background would have much of a harder time of it.
Sam, Stalker is a superpowered acrobat. So superhuman agility, enhanced speed, leaping, enhanced reflexes that kinda thing.
Yeah I thought I'd just reserve a little bit of time for Wire and Sixgun to interact before I thrust them into the next thing.

Things are kind of winding down a little to allow people a little bit more time to breath but the Den team has some action.
The Prison

The Growth seemed frustrated that it could not envelope Abaddon quickly and it rippled in pain as parts of it were burned off by his foe. After being ripped into pieces by telekinetic force, it slowly reformed and was about to attack again when the massive sandstorm came in and smothered it. A pile of sand covered the Growth and then Zenith flew back in. His eyes glowed red and steamed the pile of sand, burning it to such an intense degree that the sand turned to glass and encased the Growth within, forming a temporary prison. The Growth itself had suffered catastrophic damage from the assault and it stayed inert in the glass.

The two pieces of Growth that Abaddon held stopped moving and didn't enter Behemoth or Sarco. Michael fired a blast of light right in Sarco's face and promptly knocked him out, Behemoth following shortly later as Chrome got him into a chokehold and squeezed until he didn't move anymore. Behemoth reverted into his regular, scrawny human form while Sarco remained as a mutant crocodile man. They were both placed in cuffs though Sarco's were rated for super-strong bruisers. Chrome and Michael hauled them off to a VTOL for temporary containment at the Hall.

Olympia cursed under her breath and flew off to help pacify other areas of the Prison and Zenith stared at Abaddon, "Report back to the Hall, we'll talk later." Zenith cast his attention to Desert Vampire, "Bring the wounded team members back to the Hall and rendezvous with Pariah's team in the city. They need their own assistance." A few VTOL's arrived outside of the building to bring the wounded and captured back to the Hall, EMTs and security staff helping them back in.

The Den

Pariah reloaded and said, "The hostages are out, Morningstar already set charges. Now we just bug o-" he was interrupted by a shout over the radio from one of the VTOL crew. Pariah shouted, "Secure the VTOL now! We'll cover this side!" When the heroes got back to the transport they saw a firefight. A squad of heavily equipped and armed men were trading bullets with the few men who had been left behind on the VTOLs. One security staffer lay prone on the roof while another five fired back at twelve men, using the transports as cover.

With the Legion men was the teleporter Flasher with pistol in hand. Next two him were another man and woman, the man was completely covered in stone while the woman's hair trailed out in long tendrils that seemed to move on their own. One such strand snapped out and caught a man around the waist and lifted him screaming in the air. The VTOLs would be overrun in moments if they didn't do something. Vigilance drew his pistols and started shooting at the woman.

Another clump of hair had shifted in front of her and the bullets dug into the mass with little effect. The stone man had bullets bounce off of him as he slowly walked towards the VTOL and Flasher suddenly appeared behind Vigilance with a pistol raised at his back. Vigilance snapped his arm back without looking and caught him in the face. Flasher stumbled and Vigilance caught his gun hand and twisted it behind him, making the pistol drop. He raised his pistol to shoot but Flasher was gone. He appeared above him and fell on Vigilance making him crash to the ground. Flasher sat on his chest and trapped Vigilance in the worse position possible as he wrapped his hands around his neck and started to squeeze, Vigilance choking and trying to raise his gun.

Inside the building Pariah and Morningstar could hear another wave coming. Pariah raised his pistols to fire when suddenly one of the boarded windows shattered in splinters of wood as Stalker jumped in. She deftly twisted to the side as Pariah took aim at her and fired. Then she jumped at Morningstar with knives flashing in both hands, crossing the distance in very little time. Pariah tried to shoot at her in the air when another wave of henchmen rounded the corner and forced him to take aim at them and start trading bullets. He trusted his former apprentice to take care of the metahuman.
AM, I noticed but I didn't know if that was just a retcon or something :P

I'll have an update in the morn.
Oh go ahead, I almost forgot about him.
Debating whether I should update because I feel there might be room for more posts.
I'd be interested to see what you have in mind for gangster x gangster but I'd probably be down for over half of those suggestions.
