... in Philadelphia

Nov 28, 2008 23:11

An army tears down Broad Street in Philadelphia, looking like something out of an apocalyptic movie. Some brave civilians run up the costumed characters. Some are familiar. Is that Dr Mid-Nite? Is that Flamebird? Where did they come from? Why are they doing this ( Read more... )

The replicant twitches at Parasite's command, and as he turns away it takes a great deal of effort not to continue attacking the corpse. But the Flamebird replicant, with great resolve, launches itself at a fat businessman who stayed out a little too late.

The replicant is stopped in mid-leap by a wall of static electricity. It lifts off of its feet, twitching rapidly before exploding into superheated bits.

The reason why barks at the businessman, sending him racing for cover. Black Lightning sees another Mid-nite replicant moving towards them, and fires a ball of light that shatters it in the chest.

Despite the one downed Mid-Nite, another is only a short distance away and sees what happens to his companion. With a keening roar, it lets loose with an automatic that it happened to take from a murdered policeman.

"You're mocking a good man." Black Lightning claps both hands together and sends a high-beamed electrical wave out that stops the kinetic energy of the bullets.

They hang for a moment, and then dart back at the Mid-Nite robot, riddling it with holes before he bolts its torso off.

"You killed him!" Huntress runs past the downed Mid-Nite and up to Black Lightning. "You killed Dr Mid-Nite you son of a bitch!"

He turns back, opening his hand wide and speeding up the power source to the Huntress mechanism. It begins to jolt and jerk with that energy spike.

With a loud *crack* of electricity, and a roaring *whoosh* of soaring fire, the replicant's joints begin to pour with blue flame. She screams loudly as she collapses to her knees, her stomach suddenly bursting with an electrical inferno, and her eyes melting under the intense heat of the voltage behind them.

With a deafening *boom* her head cracks and then explodes, showering a mixture of circuit boards, wiring, and brain matter across the road.

Black Lightning steps through the mess of falling circuits and pieces, his hands alight.

"That's three..."
