In San Francisco, things are torrential

[jla-villains.livejournal.com]

Jesse Quick has sent out the APB.

But right now, Titans Tower is on fire in half a dozen places, and the torrential storm overhead isn't stopping the fires nearly enough. Lightning sizzles through the sky, and well over a dozen flying figures soar around the Tower, surveilling it and occasionally blasting it with something. Many more are on the ground and in the Tower itself - parts of the Tower explode periodically as the violence escalates.

The Tower is under siege, and the Titans are fighting a losing battle.

But things change, and Weather Wizard turns his head and sees:

Incoming!

I'm going to fry your kidneys for breakfast, whore -

"HEY! GUESS WHAT!!"

A beam of cosmic energy bursts towards Fatality, to form a ring around her neck and yank her away from Nightstar.

"That's really kind of gross!" Stargirl declares, rather unamused. Kidneys for breakfast? Um, EW.

X'hal has not forgotten me.

"Keep her away from the Tower!" Mar'i tries to yell, then coughs.

[jla-villains.livejournal.com]

She wrestles with the ring and starts blasting wildly behind her with the forcepike.

Stripling bitch!

[awesomelycosmic.livejournal.com]

Ruh-roh, Scooby!

"Man, you got a potty mouth-- ACK!" Stargirl does well to avoid the blasts, but. It's not making matters any easier.

She spins around, then swings the Cosmic Rod with plenty force, to fling Fatality away before Stargirl aims to starting blasting at her right back. Return fire! Hoo ha!

[jla-villains.livejournal.com]

Speaking of return fire - Stargirl's attracting enemy attention now. Like the atomic blasts from below.

"Aw dag, yo."

Courtney spings her Cosmic Rod in one hand, before pointing it front of herself, forming up a temporary shield to keep herself from becoming radioactive dust.

"This is REALLY KIND OF UNFAIR!"

Totally outnumbered here.

[jla-villains.livejournal.com]

Unfair's the idea, kid! Ciao!

He fires off a pair of homing missiles as he soars past on his rocketpack.

[mari-grayson.livejournal.com]

One starbolt at the homing missiles. One starbolt at the annoying dwarf's rocketpack.

She hasn't had to fight like this since she left home. It's coming back to her easier than she wanted it to.

[jla-villains.livejournal.com]

His pack flames out and he starts plummetting.

Calculator! I need some help here!

[jla-villains.livejournal.com]

Ten seconds later, just before he hits the ground, a portal opens and he falls through it and disappears.

[awesomelycosmic.livejournal.com]

WooHOO.

"Thanks for the back-up!" Stargirl calls back to Nightstar, then turns and starts blasting away at Neutron.

"Stop being evil! It SUCKS!"

[jla-villains.livejournal.com]

A panoply of color from another direction narrowly misses her from behind.

Stop being sucky! That sucks more!

Yeah! Good one, Rainbow Raider!

[awesomelycosmic.livejournal.com]

Oh, NO HE DID NOT.

"Yeah, well, your aim sucks EVEN MORE. Also, you apparently dressed yourself in the DARK!"

Who the heck was this guy, the sponsor for Reading Rainbow?

She aims at him instead, cosmic energy forming a fist to punch Rainbow Raider in the TEETH. Stargirl POOONCH.

[jla-villains.livejournal.com]

He flies backward. Yep, he's gonna need fillings from the prison dentist.

[jla-villains.livejournal.com]

But at the same time atomic blasts fly upwards again at Stargirl.

[jla-villains.livejournal.com]

The forcepike suddenly digs into Mar'i's back.

DIE, stinking halfbreed -

[mari-grayson.livejournal.com]

"Scum," Mar'i gasps back. The ring Travis gave her flares to life, surrounding her with a bright green aura.
