Megaton held a pair of screaming girls up by the hair, grinning proudly to them. "Well, not a total loss. I did pick up a pair of sexy little hostages in the process."

BOINK!

Megaton barely registered the feeling, pausing before looking at her feet. A dodgeball. She turned and looked up the bleachers, where small-time hero the American Idol stood, tossing another dodgeball up and down in her hand.

"Sorry, tons of fun. That means you're out," Powers said proud and loud (another reason she wasn't recognizable). "So why not sit on the sidelines until the police comes to take you home?"

Megaton laughed at her, dropping one of the girls and cracking her knuckles with one hand. "Oh, you should have killed me with that free shot, not made a fucking pun." She reared back her hand and whipped the remaining blond hostage at AI, flying screaming through the air.

"It wasn't so much a pun as a rhetorik, I guess OHFUCKINGHELL!" Powers panicked and threw up her gauntleted mitts, grabbing annoying gossip bitch Becky Winters out of the air. She looked dizzy when Powers set her back down, maybe short an inch or so of hair, but alright.

"Oh wow... you just saved me..." Becky muttered, looking in surprise at AI... and was she blushing.

"Lez out later, promise," AI insisted with a frown, turning back just as Megaton was barreling up the bleaches, smashing each seat beneath her feet as she went.

"Ok, big guns time is now!" Powers thought, he gauntlets glowing a bright green within its various tubing and fortified glass. She clenched her fists and clapped her arms together, giving off a violent subatomic shockwave that blasted out as a green laser beam into Megaton, hurling her back across the entire gym and through the wall.

"Oh please, let this be a short anti-climax," American Idol whispered under her breath as the rubble fell over the hole in the wall. Her bracers blinked their green light, indicating it would be able to uphold the thin barriers that would provide her super strength and protection, but her trump card (the power beams) would be out of the game for a while until its mini-generators repopulated it with quasi-matter... or something. Again, she didn't actually make them...

"I'm gonna hang your naked ass up a flagpole for that!!!" raged the voice on the other side of the wall.

"Nope, that's not melodramatic enough," Powers sighed, hopping down from the bleachers in one go. She had to distance herself from the crowd of other teens before they got hurt or started asking questions. She hopped out of the hole in the wall, looking around for the propelled villain... and finding nothing.

Megaton had leapt up to the roof, now hurling herself and swinging a beachball-sized hunk of concrete at the heroine's head. The improvised weapon shattered into debris against American Idol's head, knocking the teenager to the pavement with a loud grunt, which was in turn drowned out by the smashing stone. The barriers made by the gauntlets saved her from dying on the spot, but still stung as it acted more like a genuine suit of armor than invincibility. A blow to the helmet won?t crack your skull open, but it will still leave your head rattling around plenty.

She was downed and groaning, holding her head when Megaton stooped down, grabbing her by the hair Powers cried out in pain, lifted clean off her feet by the powerhouse villainess as she shook her, body flopping like a rag doll as she tried to hold her scalp to reduce the pain.

?No more laser suckerpunches out of you, super tart? she growled, winding up and hurling Powers several blocks through the air. By the time she opened her eyes felt the wind in her hair and was sailing over the rooftops, and shortly thereafter she felt herself landing roughly on a rooftop to a skyscraper and bouncing a few times before stopping, wind knocked out of her and her ribs and scalp sore, but long run? probably ok.

Powers boosted herself up to all fours, huffing some air back into her lungs but hearing more smashing distant below. She leaned over the edge, seeing Megaton stalking her up the wall, fists and fingers slamming handholds into the wall as her muscled arms hauled her up after her. It was a good 10 stories down, high up but at least Megaton had some work to get to her.

"Dammit," she groaned, but at least she was focused on fighting her rather than some squishier normal person. "Gotta think fast." Powers browsed over her assortment of super powers, but decided to stick with a classic maneuver. As Megaton's head came into view, Powers was standing there waiting with a leg drawn back, kicing to launch dust and dirt into her eyes.

"I'll take an antihero point for that one, if it means keeping my head" she excused in the back of her mind. Megaton gave a sharp cry and clutched her face, leaving her blind as Powers leapt up and performed a spin kick to slam her in the face. A chunk of the rooftop cracked and gave way under her strong strong grip as Megaton tilted back a bit. Powers went for another, but this time Megaton caught her by the foot as it hit her in the chest, falling back up taking her with her off the roof.

The two fell down towards the streets,Megaton blinded and swinging long, hard blows at her. Powers took a few to the chest and jaw, bouncing her head and tits around, but dodged the worst of the unaimed shots. Powers grabbed Megaton by the hair, swinging a fist rapidly into her face adn trying to mount herself on top of her to keep her aimed at the ground, so she would hit it full blast.

There was indeed a massive crash as over 200 lbs of muscle smashed into the pavement from 10 stories up. And that was not counting Powers. It was a combination of the sound of flesh colliding and a cracking of pavement, leaving a crater about 4 feet deep at its center and easily 12 feet wide. The impact hurled Powers off of her foe, bouncing wildly away, but Megaton's loud groaning clearly showing she took the brunt of the impact.

Powers shook out her head, laughing a bit as the adrenaline still rushed in her from the freefalling brawl. "Ha! Had enough, big guy?" she huffed, standing up but having to lean on the wall after a second whens he got dizzy.

"Urghh... gonna milk those super tits dry when I get my hands on you," Megaton groaned, starting to stand up slowly, leaning on her knee.

"Ok, no time to rest after all," Powers sighed, rushing at her and leaping to deliver a crushing blow across the face. Megaton's head bucked, but barely bruised let alone bleeding for all the beating she'd taken. Blasted through two walls and dropped off a roof, and the muscle bitch still looked good.

Megaton was knocked back to rest on one arm, but grabbed Powers around the neck with one massive hand. She lifted her up and slammed her head by it repeatedly into the pavement. Her nose crashed rapidly into the hard ground, cracking it with her face in spreading fractures. Her face itself remained largely in tact, if not dirtied, but the pain still shot through her teen tender face plenty.

"DIRTY! CHEATING! TRAMP!" Megaton snarled at her, hurling her to the ground like a frustrated ape. She raised a boot to stomp on her head, but Powers rolled aside by instinct when the attack let up. Megaton's boot damaged the pavement in the alleyway further, Powers lashing up and grabbing hold of her opponent's hair. She swung it hard into the nearest wall, Megaton's head slamming through the brick. She wound up to slam her head down again, but Megaton's thick arm reached out around her shoulder, grabbing and smashing Powers' head through the wall after her. She was almost face to face with the villainess again, apparently their necks and up inside someone's kitchen as a random housewife nearby screamed.

Megaton snarled and slammed her head forward again, and Powers felt no hard impact of steel or concrete this time, but a swelling sensation at her head. She realized she was submerged in the kitchen sink, as well as the fact that the kinetic barriers of the gauntlets didn't do much for drowning. She gurgled and struggled, spitting out bubbles under the water and clawing at Megaton's iron grip.
