Somewhere in New Jersey

The Titans' arrival is silent and swift, determined and precise. Before the shadow of the jet falls over the state line, Nightwing is relaying the plan to the rest of the team.

"Starfire, flank the building and come around from the rear. Hit it hard, make sure they can't get out. Robin, hit the power on that place. Don't wait, Wonder Girl and Nightstar - get inside and do what you do best. Kid Flash, Jesse, you're looking for anything in there while they're being kept busy that can give us an edge on this damned virus. Omen, keep tabs on any magic users in there. Flamebird, Speedy, follow me in after the heavy hitters do their thing. We're on cleanup."

He pauses to check the instrumentation. "And whoever finds Light... make sure you hurt him."

Can't draw the blade - that lasso won't ever be cut.

So instead, he spins in the air to try and catch that lasso around his Nth Metal mace, which will hopefully nullify any enchantments on it for the moment.

"Assaulting security guards is hardly honorable," he barks back, hurling a batch of shuriken at her, to test her physical strength.

Shayera drops a bit, waiting to maneuver behind Wonder Girl and trying not to give away her next move. Kid should be occupied with the shuriken, anyway, she figures.

Kids in costumes. She's less surprised at this behavior than the majority of the JLA seems to be.

Still, they don't exactly have time for this.

Cassie dodges the shuriken with her silver vambraces, but though she's the daughter of a god, she doesn't have all of the gifts that her mentor possesses.

She takes two shuriken - one in the shoulder, one in her abdomen, and the shock sends her spiraling down...

Even as agitated as he is, he still works with Shayera instinctively, and he hangs back to let his partner make her move...

Shayera is swift and precise as she swoops in to grab Cassie out of her freefall.

She speaks with a controlled, slightly exagerrated calm, close to the girl's ear.

"So are you ready to behave, or should we throw some more pointy things at you?"

She could keep fighting both Hawks, or she could give up easy.

She's tempted to keep fighting, she really is. If Cassie is anything, it's passion personified, and she feels the passion of anger coursing through her god-like veins at this very moment.

But she's also a seasoned warrior, and she knows when she's outnumbered.

"I'll behave." Her answer is rude, gruff. But it's the right one.

For now.

"Thank you," he says, eyeing the rest of the battle.

Feeling some bit of cognitive dissonance. Familiar, in a way.

"Because I think... none of us are truly ourselves at the moment."
