"Ready to get dangerous?"
The HYPER-DROME flickered to life. Skyscrapers rose from the ground with thunderous percussion. Cars honked, helicopters took to the sky, and the general undertone of human interaction began to waft up from the newly-made streets.
"Iiiiiiiit's another glorious day in the HYPER-DROME! Today's match is straight out of your favorite comic books and is sure to be a crowd-pleaser. We call ths little event 'Super-Powered Mayhem! The Final Showdown in Action City!'"
Sir Theo of HavenHaven stood ready on the Incredi-Corp building, notably the center of the town's financial district and home of the business mogul Chester Young (not that that has any bearing on the match.). He was wearing the standard get-up of a hero, looking like a cross between "Brave, noble hero on a mission to save the world," and "Embittered, disillusioned anti-hero looking for revenge over the death of his loved ones." We are not sure how he managed to pull that off, but suffice it to say that he did.
"Citizens of Action City!" He announced. "I am the Mighty T-Man, and I am fighting for the honor of being named your champion of justice. HYPER-DROME, please begin with the rules, if you would."
"Gladly, T-Man!" Even though the announcer was artificial, it seemed to find calling its master "T-Man" rather funny. "Contestants will be duking it out for the coveted title of 'Champion of Action City.' Now, because our contestants are superhero wanna-bes, We will give all of them a set of superpowers, absolutely free to use with whatever skills they already possess. Contestants are allowed to go anywhere they want within the city, but are not allowed to leave the city limits. Also, since Action City sees superpowered bedlam every day, literally anything can happen, so stay on your super-toes and get ready for anything.
"Now, will Player Two and Three make their entrance and announce their names? Then we may begin."

Zeke had found his way to the top of a building a few blocks away from the Incredi-corp building that "T-Man" was on top of.
He'd exchanged his usual green vest for a dark brown trench coat, and his shirt underneath had a red "X" across it, with the same "X" on the top of his right sleeve. He also had steel greaves on his legs, and black gloves.
"Well citizens, Gunslinger's the name, winning this contest is my game! Let's get this party started!"
[OOC: Can I use my minions?]

Just north of "T-man" a red "dot" could be seen running straight forward on top of the buildings. As it came into view, it did a dramatic jump, summersaulting in the air and doing a tuck roll. Now being seen clearly, the woman stood up Evil feeds on the fear of others! Citizens NEVER FEAR! For the Red Fox going into a Sailor Moon pose is Here to Save You! *Kitsu* Her attire consisted of a simple bandit mask (like Robin's), with a red gymnist suit with a mini skirt on it. There is a icon on the front that is the shape of a fox's head in orange. Wait a minute, what the f*** did I just do? Was the only thing that went through Lucy's mind after she did this. OOC: Oh I had too much fun with this idea, FYI *Kitsu* is like her ending phrase. So she may say it alot.

((OOC: The HYPER-DROME is accomodating to most rules. So... yes, you can use minions. You can even change their appearance to suit the environment if the mood takes you. However, your minions will only have their powers. No giving them the equip superpowers, kay?))
"Very well then. Players One through Three, prepare yourself for battle. The match will begin in T-Minus ten..."
Theo cracked his knuckles and got down on one knee. He put his hands on the ground and baced himself like a track runner, his miniature cape floating in the breeze. He looked at the two dots in the distance, his opponents. They both seemed capable, and they both promised to be interesting opponents. The thought of getting a real challenge caused his smile to widen and his heart to race.
"Fighters, you may begin!"
With the announcement, Sir Theo of HavenHaven was off like a shot. He made a dash for the edge of the building and launched off. "Whaa!" With a dramatic flourish and a spin in air, he activated his flight powers, and soon he was flying towards the two. "Here I come! Who's first?"

Zeke stared blankly at the "interesting" superheroine that had appeared. 'Well,' he thought, 'she is by far the weirdest person I've ever seen. I don't really want to waste time fighting her, when that "T-Man" is heading for me...I've got it!'
Snapping his fingers, he summoned his six beta level droids. "Betas," he ordered, "attack scenario L-5. Eliminate the girl."
The droids' camera eyes flashed green, a sign that the command had been accepted, and flew towards Lucy. As they got in range, their lasers began charging, and as they reached optimal distance, they began firing.
Zeke, on the other hand, turned towards Sir Theo. Drawing Durendal and Excalibur, he stepped off the building, activated his flight powers, and said, "I'm first, and you're going down!"
As he flew at Theo, he fired of a round from each of his guns. ========== Clip Count: 14 in each clip Passado [3/3] Cryo Grenade [4/4] 6 Droids left

Oh boy, this looks like trouble *Kitsu* Seeing as she was being attacked by six little droids, she turned tail and started running dodging the the laser fire as she went. She started doing flips across buildings until she can to a wall, she turned off to side then sharply turn back to the wall at an angle. As she made contact with the wall, doing a wall run, she launched herself straight for an attack at one of the droids, with her ice breath. I think you guys need to "chill out" *Kitsu*
OOC: Yes I will make the occassional bad pun.

"!!!" Making an effort to turn sideways, he was grazed by the bullets headed at him. Going into a spin, he tried to pick up speed, closing the distance between him and the gunman. His fair play instincts told him that pulling out his own revolver would be a wise move, but he wanted to test just how willing his opponent was to adapt.
"Right then! Let's see if you can entertain me." While he tried to pick up speed, he fired off a blast of Laser Vision, hopefully to distract the gunner while he closed in and swung at him with a superhero's right hook.

Zeke saw the laser vision coming, as well as the superhero barreling towards him at high speed. Seeing no other option, he moved out of the way of the lasers, and in a fluid motion, holstered his guns and drew Levanter, his hold out knife.
He then tried to meet the superhero's right hook with a slash along the arm with the blood red blade.
The betas had their metaphorical hands full with the supergirl as well. The lead unit was nearly frozen, but managed to move out of the way in time, and only had the top of itself frozen.
The group flew apart, and their lasers began glowing red. They all fired at once, their normally yellow lasers glowing an angry red, with electricity sparking around it. ========== Clip: 14 shots Passado:[3/3] Cryo Grenade: [4/4] Droids left: 6 Droids currently using Overload Laser, with two turns left.

Seeing as her attack didn't do anything, instead making the little droids attack her with more intensity. Why is this happening to me?! *Kitsu* Lucy was able to dodge the first wave of laser fire while she was tumbling, however the second wave burnt her skirt in the back. Lucy, once again started running across the building, but this time with an idea that hopefully would work. As she came to the Incredi-Corp Building, she made a leap of faith for the building. As she was making contact with the building the pane shattered and she slipped through. She continued running and crashed through the other side where the other two heros were clashing it out. Hope you don't mind if I brought some friends to join us. They make a mean steak. *Kitsu*
OOC: Bet you didn't see that coming did you Homac. HA!

Alarms went off in the headquarters of ACES, the Action City Eradicators of Superheroes. A big, burly man came bursting into the room. "This better be important, McConaghey.
"Sir!" The mousy man at the monitors saluted. "We've got reports of supers duking it out in the financial district. They're already wreaking havoc in the Incredi-Corp Building!"
General Green clanched his fist dramatically. "Darn supers! They'll tear this city apart if we don't stop them. Mobilize the troops! We'll crush these menaces to society once and for all."
"Yessir!" The scramble alert was raised. This could hardly be good for our heroes...
Theo twisted in air, trying to avoid the blade, but for his efforts he didn't stop the knife from raking along his arm. He got an unattractive cut along his super-suit, but more importantly he got a little cut on his arm.
Twisting out of the way, he backed up and touched down on a rooftop. "Heh, good one. But can you keep up that resourcefulness for much longer?" Taking a step back, he leaned his head back and let loose a mighty Ice Breath, keeping his opponent on his toes while he waited for him to make some kind of move.

Zeke flew backwards as 'Red Fox' flew through a nearby window with his droids tailing her, moving out of the range of the ice breath, sliding Levanter back into his jacket, and drew out his guns again.
Glaring at Theo, he said, "I've had about enough of you! You'll fall right here!" Doing so, he began moving faster, firing bullets at rapid speed and following Theo's every move. As he reached his last two bullets, he spun his guns once and fired off his 'special' bullets, which were packed with an explosive compound.
The droids had followed through window after Lucy, and reached a conundrum as they saw their master being attacked as well. 'Objective one: Protect master. Objective two: Eliminate the girl. Adapting now...
The droids split up, four following the girl and firing once more, while the other two flanked Theo and fired at him, trying to hold him in place for Zeke's special move.
======= Passado: [2/3] Cryo grenade: [4/4] Droids: 6, on their final turn of overload laser.

Well this truely changed the entire situation, two of the droids stopped chasing her tail and instead went back to their master, so there were less lasers firing at her. Looking behind her back to the remaining droids she gave a smirk. Well I think it's about time I cut our fun short. *Kitsu* Verti! Two charkams appeared in her hands, as she continued running, again she pulled a wall run, this time however launching herself into flight. Lets dance. *Kitsu* The charkams began spinning rapidly in Lucy's hands, taking the charkam in her right hand she flipped over onto the back of her hand. As she came in close to the droids, she went into a spin throwing a punch and doing a wide buzzsaw cut with the left. As she was doing this she did get burnt in a few places but these injuries would have to be ignored for now.

Grunting in vexation, Theo had no choice but to run, staying just a half a step ahead of the bullet flashes. Of course, leaping over lasers made it even more difficult. But when he was close to the coup de grace, with the two robots checkmating him and standing at the edge of the roof, he looked up at Zeke with a mixture of annoyance and respect.
With his battle instincts working at full capacity, he pulled out his revolver and tried to beat his opponent to the final shot. Unfortunately, he only managed to connect with one of the bullets, causing a mid air explosion. The second bullet went off right under his foot, causing him to fall backwards and off of the building.
"Well, this is inconvenient." He muttered, looking for an awning to fall down on as he plummeted. "Could be worse, though..."
The sound of helicopter blades peirced through the air. Two of them flew in close formation towards the Incredi-Corp Building, and one dived down between the buildings after a falling superhero.
Sir Theo grabbed onto a flagpole that protruded from the wall. "Guh! Great, now to hang here until... Wait, what's that sound?" He looked over his shoulders. "Ah, not ACES already!"
"Open fire, men! Hit those supers with everything you've got!"
As ordered, the helicopters each sought out a hero and began to fire their missles and shoot their guns with the obvious attempt to erase the combatants with wild abandon. Fortunately, helicopters don't have nearly the unlimited ammunition thay have in action movies. Our heroes could easily outlast them...right?

Zeke looked annoyed that his salvo had missed, and that the explosion from the last bullet had hit both Theo and one droid, while Lucy had destroyed another.
And then the helicopters came. Perfect.
Deciding that the choppers were the biggest problem, he directed his droids to continued harassing Lucy, while he took out the helicopter attacking him.
Flying out of the way of it's barrage of bullets and missles, he flew above it, and pulled an orange sized metal sphere out of a pocket in his coat. Smirking, he pressed a button on the top of it, said, "You guys are annoying, just scram." and tossed it on top of the chopper, where it burst in a light blue smoke that froze the blades, sending the chopper crashing to the ground. Then, from another pocket he pulled out two clips, and reloaded his guns.
=========== Clip: 15 shots Passado: [2/3] Cryo Grenade: [3/4] 4 droids left

As she came out of her spiral spin, a helicopter popped up in from of her. Before she could veere away, she slammed into the window of the helicopter and started rolling herself along the outer shell of the helicopter. Taking her charkam she started buzzsawing along the entire length of the helicopter, hopefully hitting a gas tank. As she moved away from the helicopter she dived into an alleyway between two buildings to hopefully lost both the helicopter and the droids. Unforunately she didn't come out of it unharmed, she had a major pain on her right shoulder, and while she was going along the helicopter a few of the lasers ended up hitting her in the legs.
