East? [attr="class","top-acc"] [attr="class","cadrie-content1"] [attr="class","cadrie-content2"] [attr="class","cadrie-img"] [attr="class","cadrie-img2"] [attr="class","inner-finally"]Some days, this city was downright almost peaceful, Sunadokei Kyojin thought to herself as she stood atop one of the commercial buildings in the Akihabara neighborhood. On one hand, a little peacefulness was good for the stress. A day of light patrol meant she could head home in the evening a little less sore and a lot less tired. On the other hand, her vast ego craved action. It'd been hours since Sunadokei gave a television interview or offered up a statement to reporters. She needed something to punch, ideally for good PR.
Scanning the streets below, nothing much seemed out of place. Chiyoda Ward was the bustling hub of commerce it tended to be. Cars rumbled along, an elevated commuter tram pulled into a station. The sidewalks were packed with foreigners and tourists heading to the so called 'Electric Town's' famed shopping complexes to no doubt browse the latest and greatest in consumer electronics. Sunadokei silently hoped they'd stop at one of the ATSA affiliated venues and purchase some of her officially licensed merchandise. It was the least they could do to repay her for keeping the streets free and clear of crime.
The sound of a woman screaming snapped Titanomachia out of her day dreaming. She glanced left and right, trying to locate where the disturbance came from below. There, by an alleyway. A woman's purse snatched by some petty thief, making his way down the sidewalk shoving aside pedestrians hoping for a quick escape. "Show time..." Sunadokei said to herself under her breath. She held her arms out at her sides, promptly turned around, and dived backwards off the building. As she fell several stories to ground level, the Hero activated her Quirk, growing in size until she was some twenty meters tall.
The change in height made the otherwise life-threatening fall harmless, and Titanomachia landed with a heavy crash that shook the vicinity. Posing like a gymnast that had just stuck her landing, arms outstretched as if seeking applause. Onlookers looked up, some mumbling her name or simply gasping in surprise. The thief looked back, eye's wide as dinner plates. He tried to pick up his pace, only for Titanomachia to take a single step forward, foot landing with a heavy thud that set off a car alarm next to it. A hand outstretched, wrapping around the Villain and snatching him up like a child grabbing an action figure.
Titanomachia lifted the thug up to eye level, glaring at him as if studying a bug. "Go on then darling, let's see the Quirk." Her voice boomed like thunder at her titanic size. The would-be Villain grimaced, spitting her direction but misjudging the distance between them. She could feel his muscles tense, and his entire body transformed into stone. "That it?" Titanomachia said almost disappointed, squeezing him extra tight. "Idiot, now I can tack on illegal use of a Quirk without a license. You know, on top of pickpocketing. You're looking at a fine of 500,000¥... Minimum."
Turning back to the victim behind her, Titanomachia took a single stride and bent down, plucking the purse from the Villain's grip with her fingertips and then offering it back to the woman. "I believe this would be yours, Ma'am." She said sweetly, a cheery smile on her face. All around her she could catch the flashes of cameras in her peripheral vision. Good.
With that settled, Titanomachia tossed the Villain back and forth between her hands like a baseball, before tapping a finger to her ear. "This is Titanomachia to Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, requesting an officer dispatched to my address." She glanced around for a street sign, repeating the address for the dispatcher. It didn't take long for the officer to arrive, and it wasn't hard for him to spot the giantess casually leaned against a building façade still juggling the Villain like a stony hacky sack.
As the officer pulled up to the curb, Titanomachia bent down and held out her outstretched hand, the criminal too dizzy and motion sick to resist arrest. His Quirk had worn off at some point, as he became too nauseous to maintain it while being tossed about. The officer quickly cuffed the man, escorting him into the back of the squad car. "Pretty standard lowlife, pickpocketing, purse-snatching, disturbing the peace, usage of a Quirk without a license." Sunadokei was inspecting her nails as she spoke, this was all very much business as usual.
"I have a kid to feed you know!" The perp finally got his two cents in edgewise as he was being shoved into the car.
"Yeah yeah, that's what they all say. Come up with something more clever next time, like embezzlement." Titanomachia replied, half distracted by something else. She was listening to the police radio in the front of the squad car. The dispatcher requesting all units in the vicinity. "SShhhh..." Sunadokei politely shushed the officer as he was busy reading the crook his rights, she leaned her way into the empty driver's seat, listening to the dispatch.
A bank robbery, on 10-1 Iwamotochō. That was Chiba Bank wasn't it? Sunadokei stood back up, looking to the officer. "I gotta take this Darling, tell your supervisor I'll have my secretary send over my report this evening for the records. Ciao." Titanomachia blew a quick kiss, before transforming back to her giant size. She began taking off eastward, headed towards the riverfront. She hadn't heard all the details, but she'd heard enough. A bank robbery in progress, multiple hostages, suspects considered armed and dangerous. Exactly the kind of place she needed to be.

Can't have a peaceful day, can he? It made him miss the small towns and random haunts he used to visit back home, the home cooking and the laid back life most people had. Japan wasn't awful, but the city he was stuck in made his life as unfun as possible.
He couldn't help but look on at the scene unfolding. Police barricade, what he could only assume to be a hostage situation, and request for hero support. After a good minute Mark let out a loud sigh, shoulders slumping as he took a sip of his coffee and stepped towards the line. As he approached one of the officers held up his hand, beginning to explain that this was an ongoing situation and that civilians weren't supposed to be there. That was pretty standard for Mark, as he didn't flaunt his status as a hero. That and he didn't dress the part. Pulling his license out and flashing it to the officer he'd look beyond as he began to formulate what might be going on. "Take me to someone in charge. I might not be for much, but at least I'm another body to block bullets for you fine men in blue." There was a level of sarcasm there, but it couldn't be helped.
With a grunt the officer indicated to Mark to follow, and after a few moments he found himself at the command post. "Isn't this outside your forte, Lone Wolf?" the lieutenant asks, eyeing Mark up and down. For once he had spent a sleepless night grading papers that he had been putting off and putting off, but they needed to be in before the end of the week. Better to get them all done all at once.
"Look, just give me a sitrep and I'll see what I can do. Maybe give an opening to your swat boys or something like that."

[attr="class","top-acc"] [attr="class","cadrie-content1"] [attr="class","cadrie-content2"] [attr="class","cadrie-img"] [attr="class","cadrie-img2"] [attr="class","inner-finally"]The sound of police sirens and the news chopper overhead was suddenly overcome by a new noise. Footsteps, deafening ones. The ground shook a bit with each one, and one of the officers speaking with Lone Wolf raised an eyebrow watching the ripples in his coffee mug. "Sir, what the Hell is that?" Asked one of his subordinates, though his question soon answered itself. Titanomachia rounded a street corner, running at a full stride. Still in full sprint, she slid to a halt, kicking up dust and gravel as her heels dug into the concrete roadbed. A little pothole maintenance was well worth the timely arrival.
Titanomachia took her signature pose, one hand on her hip, the other tossing back her long hair before aiming at the bank like a set of finger guns. "It's a pleasure to be here..." She said in a sultry tone, her gaze hardening as she glared at the bank front. "Villains beware, Citizens rejoice, for Titanomachia has arrived!" The news reporters on scene were already eating it up. Sunadokei had more stage presence than half the U.A. faculty combined. She caught a glimpse of one in her peripheral vision. That American cowboy, she practically scoffed just seeing him. Foreigners...
Her speech over, Titanomachia shrunk back down to her normal svelte size, stepping over the police barricades while she her Quirck wore off. She made her way direct to the command post, acting as if she belonged their all along. "Sergeant, a status report, if you would dear." Sunadokei said, still ignoring the American cowboy in her presence. "Oh! Lone Star, I didn't quite see you over there." Sunadokei cooed, feigning ignorance and moving her way direct into Lone Wolf's personal space. "Nice to see U.A. sending its best and brightest." She said with the barest hint of sarcasm. Sunadokei didn't exactly hide the fact she lacked much respect for the American. She thought he was a cowboy with a weak resume and a weaker Quirk, undeserving of his position at U.A. But... that was an argument for the alumni donor meetings, not a police command tent, so she held her tongue.
The police Sergeant cleared his throat. "Right, now that introductions are out of the way." He pointed to a hastily drawn map over what appeared to be a city hall blueprint of the buildings splayed out over a folding table. "At approximately 1300 hours the silent alarm in the bank was triggered, but did not send a signal. Internet and phone lines had already been severed. At 1305 we received a 110 call from a cellphone we traced to the bank, but it cut out immediately after dialing. A Special Assault Team was on the scene in 15 minutes, and immediately set up a perimeter."
The officer pointed to the map, their police barricade hastily drawn in with thick marker streaks, indicating both squad cars and SAT vans blockading the street, but also several police speedboats patrolling in the nearby riverside waterfront. "We have six, or seven Villains inside the building---"
"I'm sorry, six or seven?" Titanomachia interjected, scratching her chin with a hand as she studied the map.
"Yes, we have unverified reports one of the Villains may possess an invisibility Quirk of sorts. Our spotters on the office building south of the bank reported faint traces of movement and thermal imaging readings without a visible individual. It could be some other Quirk related anomaly, fire powers or maybe some kind of signal jamming." The Sergeant took a deep sip from his mug, setting it down on the table. A coffee ring had already stained the bottom corner of the map. "We have fourteen visually confirmed hostages inside the building. A bank president, four tellers, an assistant manager, six patrols, and a janitor. We also have circumstantial evidence there are two security company drivers also within the building."
"Let me guess, cash transfer day for the vault?" Sunadokei said with a sigh, it was a tale as old as time.
"Precisely." The Sergeant said with a curt nod. "Last recorded surveillance footage confirms this information. Though we've since cut power to the building. Any questions?" The officer said, looking to the two Heroes.
"Have these Villains made any demands? Hostage transfer, a safe escort, promise of alyssum?" It was the usual M.O. Get them money, get a ride out of the country, flee to somewhere nearby with a non-extradition status with Japan. Usually the Russian Federation or North Korea.
"Nothing yet, only their initial threats for law enforcement to stay back or they'd hurt civilians. One of the group has a magnetism Quirk, or possibly some kind of Telekinesis." The Sergeant gestured to the bank, it was clear large furniture ranging from tables to vending machines to the literal bank vault door itself were barricading the various windows and doors. "They barricaded the building too quickly for it not to be Quirk related."
Sunadokei sighed, looking at Lone Wolf, then back to the map. "Are they aware Lone Wolf is here? Stealth isn't exactly my forte." Titanomachia was loathe to admit.

The sudden appearance of a new pro wasn't surprising to Mark. There were too many of them that made a big scene on arrival that, in his opinion, made the job that much harder. Then again, he did what he could to look like an average joe. Made his life that much easier, unassuming. Granted, his luck in the dating pool was abysmal because of this but he could live without that.
This pro, though. Titanomechia. That there was a character. And unfortunately any surprise that was to be had was now gone. But this did mean he didn't have to do all the heavy lifting now. As she approached he would sip his coffee, giving her a smile at the veiled insult. He was tempted to fire back with, Can't say the same, but if he did she might storm off out of spite. Pro heroes were almost like actors in that regard. He'd be quiet throughout the briefing, taking in the conversation as he studied the map. Oh, how nice it would be if he could glean any kind of information by touching it! Knowing all the lines on the paper was one thing, but knowing the layout of the place was another...
"Doesn't matter if they know I'm here or not," he says, taking a long and obnoxious sounding sip of his coffee. "That entrance of yours no doubt tipped 'em off that pros are on the scene. Don't matter if they're amateurs or pros, they're going to be on edge." He set his cup down on the table, drawing the Carry from his jacket and releasing the magazine, stowing it in a pocket. "Invisibility, telekinesis. Any other suspected quirks? Mutation with eyes in the back of one's head, tremor sense, cheese constructs?" He locked in a fresh magazine, one where the first few rounds were smoke. Even without help from Titanomechia this was going to be difficult, and now he had to worry about things becoming a show.

Titanomachia replied, crossing her arms beneath her chest. "It's called theatrics, you could stand to learn a little." She wasn't taking lessons on presentation from a guy that looked like he rolled out of bed. If Lone Wolf was trying to annoy her slurping his coffee, he was succeeding. Titanomachia glared at his cup as he took his never-ending 'sip.'
"They'd be daft not to think Pros are on the way. This city has a higher Hero to citizen capita than anywhere except maybe New York." And still she always felt painfully outnumbered. Seven to two was actually pretty favorable odds, as far as shit-hitting-the-fan tended to go. "They're robbing a godforsaken bank, of course they're on edge. We have to use that to our advantage." Sunadokei was generally cool under pressure, albeit easily irritated. She studied the map, trying to look at things for a new perspective. Think like a Villain. It wasn't doing her much good.
"Correction darling." Sunadokei said, wagging a finger in Lone Wolf's face. "They know I am on the scene, and I am a lot to worry about." That had perhaps the most forgettable Pro and the least both in the same room. That was their big advantage, Sunadokei just needed a way they could use it to their favor. While she mulled it over the Sergeant answered Lone Wolf's question.
"Nothing specific, we don't have security footage to go off of, we can't even ID most of the perps yet if we had to. It could be anything really. Electricity powers to blow fuses, super strength to break into the vault or armored car, mind control, metal manipulation. You're guess is good as mine, sir." The police were clearly not going to be the deciding factor in this.
Titanomachia turned sharply on her heels, beginning to walk away. "Precious little information, lives at stake, and all this standing around." She glanced back at Lone Wolf and the police officers. "I'm going to go keep them busy. Maybe cowboy here can do what Americans do best, sneak into places they aren't wanted and shoot things up. Just give me some kind of signal when you need me." With that she began to grow to her giant size, stepping casually over a squad car and approaching the road in front of the bank.
"This is Titanomachia of the Japanese Pro-Hero Association. You're surrounded on four sides by the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, and me on one. I have reinforcements from the ASTA Hero Agency in route, including members specifically chosen to counter your Quirks." She didn't, all her Heroes in the field were tied up op their own assignments or too far away to realistically help. And even if she did, she didn't know enough what she was going up against to hand pick a team for the situation. But, these would be bank robbers didn't know that. "State your demands and we can resolve this peacefully, without violence. No one needs to get hurt." Silence came as her answer, but there were obvious signs of movement even through the boarded up storefront of the bank. Someone was listening, and thinking up how to reply.

Mark couldn't help but let a little of his snark out at some of her comments. "Well, you're right about people worrying. The hostages might have a few choice words."
Mark nodded at the Sergeant as he holstered the weapon again, letting out a sigh. "Can't be helped. We'll manage, one way or another. I'd keep the paramedics on standby, just in case." He'd look back at Titanomachia as she mentioned keeping them busy, raising an eyebrow before looking back at the Sergeant. "So I'm going to take a walk. Assuming the back door is unlocked I can make an effort to get in and do a little recon. Hopefully make a hole for-"
He looked over as the other hero started to make her move, shrugging his shoulders. "...the people to get out. At least, attempt to. If you hear gunfire, try to send in some gas first."

The hostages had been bound and gagged, tied together with rope and stacked up in the center of the room where they could keep an eye on them. One Villain watched them carefully, arms folded crossed his broad chest as he tapped a foot impatiently. "Jazz, Steadfast, how you comin' with the loot?" He called out to the rest of his men.
Two large Villains were climbing out of the opened vault, both lugging huge sacks of cash in hand or carrying deposit boxes of valuables they'd literally ripped off the walls. Both were roughly two and a half meters tall, dressed like breakdances from the 80's. One had a Warthog Quirk, the other a Rhinoceros one. "Couple more trips, then we good." They said, as they turned to head down a hall towards wherever they were stashing their cargo.
Another pair of Villains watched from the barricaded windows. One wore samurai styled armor with numerous metal spikes protruding from his body. The second had dark skin and glasses, but looked otherwise normal. "Should we say something to her?" Replied the dark skinned Villain, looking back to the group's leader.
He shook his head, "Give her a warning shot Ripper." He ordered his thug, and the armor clad Villain gave a silent nod. He looked to his companion, who seemed hesitant and then raised his hands. The metal barricades pried open, enough for his partner to get a clear shot. Ripper raised his gauntlets, and some of the spikes along his back withdrew into his body, before he pumped his wrists like shotguns and promptly fired them back out from his hands.
Titanomachia meanwhile, was waiting outside, only to catch the glint of light reflecting off steel. "クソ!" She cursed aloud, using her foot to kick up a nearby manhole cover like popping up a skateboard. It caught the spikes midair, several imbedding in the thick slab of steel and sending it careening backwards. The spike pierced manhole cover landed on the hood of one of the police cruisers, crumpling the hood and shattering the windshield. Several officers flinched or dived for cover. Titanomachia removed unperturbed, glaring at the window as it sealed back up with debris.
"You have five minutes until the rest of the ASTA Heroes get here, and I bring all of my team crashing down on you. I'll ask you one more time, but only because I'm a patient woman." Not only way she not, the hostages were literally the only thing keeping her from removing the Villains by force. "State your demands, and we'll resolve this peacefully." naturally, she had no intention to. Titanomachia was buying time for Lone Wolf, who she sorely hoped was putting it to good use.
Sunadokei may not respect the American much, but she couldn't argue his resourcefulness. She'd heard plenty of stories about his craftiness, and would wager good money if he already hadn't found a way to slip into the building, he would soon. She just needed to stall long enough. Though so far playing hostage negotiator was her only plan, and that path wasn't gonna last forever.

It would take him a minute as he went the long way to avoid detection, but after a little while Mark found the back of the bank. He tested the door, and surprisingly found it unlocked. Well, there's your problem, he thinks, slowly pushing it open as he drew the Carry. There were some residual marks on the handle, and after a brief scan of the memories found nothing of particular interest; one of the guards was having an affair with a teller, but that was not his concern.
The real information he got out of the memories was the layout of the bank. Sure, lines on paper told you the layout of a building, but it paled in comparison to someone else's experiences. The hallway he had opened up to was to the back offices, hidden and out of the way of the average customer and only in use for the real pencil pushers of the place. And the security office, and essentially all facilities for the workers when not in front. He slipped through the halls and stopped outside an archway to take stock of the situation, the lobby being on the other side. Right out the gate he didn't like this. He had eyes on five of them, but nothing on the other two suspected. It was possible there was only five, but Mark didn't feel comfortable taking that chance.
The better question was, what was the play? They were focused on the front entrance, and everyone in the middle was bound and gagged together. That was extra as hell, unless these guys were worried the people would rise up against their captors. He clicked his teeth for one second, and determined the action that needed to be taken. As soon as the big guys went back into the vault he rounded the corner, firing his first smoke round at what he perceived to be the ringleader, then at the two keeping lookout, then the last at the vault itself to lay down a decent smokescreen. The remaining rounds in the gun were stun, and with his first move completed he did a scan for any of the remaining two villains as he started to make his way to the hostages.

"What the Hell?" He glanced up, as the smoke began to fill the room. "Hero! Get him!" He cried out to his men, coughing as the smoke began to fill the room. Ripper raised his gauntlets, firing another set of metal spikes at Lone Wolf, his shots went wide from the smoke filling his mask and pierced into the hallway not far from the gunslinger's head. "Get... to the truck." Their leader yelled out over his coughing fit.
Jazz and Steadfast came coughing out of the vault, money literally falling out of the sacks as they struggled to carry everything while hacking up a lung. The two stumbled around in the smoke, feeling out in front of them with their hands as they tried to navigate their way to after their leader. Meanwhile, outside Titanomachia had decided it was go time. She wasted no time getting down on her knees, frantically tearing apart the front end of the building with her bare hands. Peeling the makeshift barricades open like a tin can. The smokescreen set of fire alarms, the emergency overhead sprinklers began pouring water as automatic fire suppression systems kicked it.
Smoke billowed out the windows and front doors as Titanomachia ripped them open, as much as she'd like to just stick an arm inside and start swinging, she couldn't risk injuring a hostage. She needed to figure out where they were first. Meanwhile, someone was running down the hallway behind Lone Wolf, having been tasked to patrol the second floor offices of the bank for any civilians hiding. The person was invisible, their outline however was clear through the water of the sprinklers bouncing off their body. It was a woman, tall and slender, almost as tall as the American. She didn't know if this was some cop, or a Hero, but it didn't matter. She curled a fist, throwing out a sucker punch aimed at his head. Looking to use the commotion and the noise to mask her footsteps and start the fight with a cheap shot.

Even if the spikes went wide Mark would still duck down as the projectiles stuck in the wall near him, glancing up briefly before getting his head back in the game. Telekinesis, spikes, two mutants. That leaves one out, not counting the Invisible man. Now how to-
The crash in the front set him on edge, and rounding the corner he fired off two rounds at the fleeing mutant men. The rounds might not have enough voltage to take them down, but it was worth a try in the end. If anything, he was lamenting the fact that Titanomechia was acting before he had a chance to get the people out. Not like I'd have a lot of luck getting them out with how bound they are. Before he could make it to the gaggle he caught sight of something moving to his left, and before he knew it his face was knocked to the side with a fresh cut spewing blood. This was no time to pause, act!
He took a few steps back in retreat, following the ripples in the water and the smoke before pulling the trigger again, the round flying past the intended target and hitting the wall in the distance. He ducked under what he perceived to be another punch, turning his gun in order to swing the butt of the pistol into the Invisible Man's gut, following up with a headbutt that would more than likely miss. He followed up with a second shot, more point blank now and with all the commotion going on he would have to draw his knife in order to get the people free; hopefully the two at the front would be too preoccupied with the raging arm and the other guy incapable of doing much of anything so he could get these people out of here.

"Close, but no cigar." She said in a sarcastic tone, swinging again only to have him dodge this time. What she didn't expect was how quickly Lone Wolf would pistol whip her, before simply shooting her point blank. The Villain's cloak faded, invisibility deactivated by the strain of her injuries. She fell to her knees, clutching her stomach. "Lucky... shot..." Came one final insult before the woman slumped over unconscious on the wet floor.
More gunshots alerted Titanomachia outside. "Signal, I said signal!" She yelled in frustration, "Not shoot up the whole place!" What was he thinking? He could hit civilians. The giantess inhaled deep, lungs puffing up with air before she exhaled hard into the bank's lobby. Like a huge fan ventilating the building, Titanomachia literally blew away Lone Wolf's smoke screen, in time to catch the rest of the Villain posse fleeing down towards the back of the building down a hall.
Titanomachia then reached in, like a little girl trying to retrieve her toys from a dollhouse. Hand carefully grabbing up a handful of hostages, carrying them out into the safety of the streets. Medical workers and police rushing up as she set them down besides her. "You look hurt? You ok?" She asked Lone Wolf, there was fresh blood dripping from a wound and he had a knife in hand. Moreover, she could see his defeated assailant face down besides him.
Meanwhile, the remaining Villains made their way to the armored car that had originally come to refill the bank vault. The drivers were tied up in the loading bay, and the final member of the group sat behind the wheel jamming out to tunes on his headphones. "What the heck was going on up there?" He asked, feet reclined on the dash with a casual nonchalance.
"Titanomachia's here." The ringleader replied. "And some other guy." Ripper added, not actually sure who the gunslinger was. Her and Stockholm helped Jazz and Steadfast to limp their way to the armored truck. The two large mutants tossed their remaining sacks of cash in the back, before climbing aboard. The 'driver' put his feet down off the dash, hands on the wheel.
"Where's Vanish?" The driver asked, sounding concerned for their team mate.
"Captured, dead, doesn't matter. Drive!" Their leader ordered. "Get us out of here Upgrade!"
"My pleasure boss." Upgrade replied, a sinister smile on his face as his eyes lit up with glowing green binary code. His arms began to meld into the steering wheel, and the armored truck roared to life. Similar code scrawled along its dash panels, and the taillights 'grew' into rocket thrusters before igniting with a powerful burst of acceleration. The armored truck took off at top speed, the front bumper transforming into a snowplow's blade as the vehicle plowed its way through the police barricade and blasting down the street.
Titanomachia turned her head to watch the getaway, furrowing her brow as she reached in and grabbed Lone Wolf like a toy. "Hold onto something!" She instructed, tossing the Hero up onto her shoulder. He'd have to keep balance as she stood upright, luckily she had plenty of super sized silver hair to cling to like a rope. Titanomachia took off after the armored car, running at a dead sprint down the nearby streets. "How good of a shot are you!?" She yelled over the rush of wind as she ran, and the noise of the truck's newfound rocket engines. She'd heard he was the best, well she was willing to put that to the test. How well could the cowboy aim at a fast moving target while balancing on her shoulders as she hurdled along.

Seeing as the civilians were being evac'd by the other hero he would stop and sheath the knife, seeing as it was pointless. With the smoke gone and the villains running he figured that it was now a good time to stop and reload. "We don't have comms between us, and considering I don't have a good means of signaling without firing a bunch of shots figured you'd get the jist." He ejected the magazine, locking the slide back and catching the last round that was in the chamber. "Besides, I don't resort to lethal first. Those bullets cost a lot of money, and I have a supplier that offers up nonlethal means cheap."
He slotted in the paint rounds, readying himself as he looked up at her. "It's only a cut. It'll heal. Hell, maybe it'll finally get me a date," he says, deciding to inject a little bit of his crass humor into the situation as he walks to the end of the hall where the villains jetted off to.
Of course, shortly after that he heard the getaway car crash through the barricade. They were now in a vehicle; cool. That was outside of Mark's area of expertise. All that meant was they could just put the Invisible Lady in cuffs, make sure all the people were fine-
Nope. He now found himself in Titanomechia's grasp, hoisted up onto her shoulder. Damn near gave him a heart attack, too. "You know, when I once said I wouldn't mind being picked up for once, this is not how I imagined it!" he says, taking hold of a few hairs to steady himself. This was not what he had in mind for stopping the car, and if he was being honest he hated every second of it. "This is way too dangerous, especially since the only other gun I have can put a hole through-"
An idea came to mind. Bringing the Carry to bear, he lined up the shot as best he could; it wasn't perfect, but he unloaded all eight rounds into the back of the vehicle best he could. Five hit their mark, pasting several paint marks on it as it began to speed away. "Let it go. Assuming that thing transforms, we might be able to find it later." Surely their two different heroing styles wouldn't clash with this decision...right?

Sunadokei quipped back, as she watched her fellow Pro reload his guns. Why he relied on those thing, she'd never know. American cowboys... She shook her head slightly. "You know darling... ATSA could easily take up your supply contract for custom rounds. I'd even give you half my commission." Titanomachia give a wink, always chasing after another deal. A sale's a sale, as they say.
She couldn't help but snicker at his remark about a date. "Only if you pay for dinner." Titanomachia interjected, giving a coy smile. She wasn't above a little mid mission flirting. Lone Wolf was rather handsome in a... rugged sort of way. But he wasn't exactly her type either. Too cynical, too dour, no fun. As she scooped him onto her shoulders, she could only roll her eyes at his remarks. "Yeah yeah, I get it, your love life sucks. I wouldn't know the feeling." She took off down the street, leaving pot holes in her wake as heavy strides buckled the concrete beneath her.
Titanomachia was busy trying to navigate busy streets, not crush any pedestrians, and listen to Lone Wolf whinging all at the same time. She glanced as eye over his way, "Too dangerous? Honey this is our job, literally." Titanomachia stared down danger as bravely as any, though a lot of that confidence came from being large enough to flatten most thugs into red mist. "Through an armored car?" She answered Lone Wolf's statement for him. Hoping he could like, use his marksmanship to shoot out the engine or the tires or something.
Gunshots rung out in her right ear, Titanomachia covered it with a hand, nearly knocking Lone Wolf off her shoulder. "Man that hand cannon of yours is loud!" She yelled over the ringing in her ear. "That was right next to my ear damnit!" The armored car was making distance on them, ducking and weaving through traffic on its rocket engines. Sunadokei was fast at this size, far faster than someone on foot. But she wasn't Rocket-Thruster-Quirck-Mobile fast. She slowed her sprint and came a controlled stop, which was more difficult than it sounded with the added mass of her Quirk.
"Fine... I'll let it go." Sunadokei said, upset she couldn't continue to give chase. Too proud to admit she could only keep pace with it at a dead sprint. Now that she was getting winded, she had no chance of keeping up. "Gimme... a second to catch my breath, hotshot." Titanomachia said, lifting Lone Wolf from her shoulder and setting him down on the roof of a nearby building. She leaned against the structure, panting for a second before wiping the sweat from her brow. Heaving herself up, Sunadokei simultaneously shrunk back so the two shoot on the rooftop together. She immediately took a seat on the ledge and rested her hands on her knees.
"It's... not easy sprinting in a G-Cup and heels." Sunadokei added, drawing attention to both her figure and her costume. Form had certainly taken a front seat to function, especially her flashy but otherwise pointless split cape. She hated looking disheveled, which is half the reason she'd dumped them off on a rooftop. She needed the time to freshen up before the press arrived. "Alright then, I'm gonna assume you have a way to track those rounds?" Sunadokei said, eyes glancing to the cowboy's unloaded gun. "For the record, we had better 'find it later'. If I let you convince me to let it go, then I'll never let you forget it." Titanomachia didn't need amateur hour mistakes on her case list.
Retrieving her phone from her costume, Titanomachia quickly made a call. "This is Titanomachia to all ATSA Heroes operating in and around Akihabara. Be on the lookout for a grey, armored car owned by the Chiyoda motor company. Vehicle last seen headed west along the waterfront, sporting Quirk-based modifications and upgrades. Vehicle is likely to be ditched, or otherwise revert to its default form. Suspects within are six Villains, each with combat capable Quirks. Do not engage alone. Reconnaissance and observation only until reinforcements arrive." She clicked off her phone, stowing it away as she turned to Lone Wolf. Against her better judgement, Sunadokei gave him a quick peck on the cheek. "You did good... for a cowboy."

Well, she wasn't shouting and screaming at him, so there was some level of professionalism there. Good. She even set him down, how lady-like! Once he shook himself out (apparently being carried and at high speeds like that was not his style) he held up another magazine, this time full stun rounds as he set it in and set the slide forward. "I'm not exactly used to situations like this. Paint's a special blend, nearly impossible to wash off and gives off a slight glow under UV light. Tried trackers once, they either break apart before they leave the barrel to shatter on impact. Not to mention they take up space in a magazine when I might need something different."
He looked over at her, shrugging. "So long as they don't ditch it, we should be able to find them. They seem pretty amateur, 'specially if some guy with a gun can spook 'em like that. If they had their wits about them they could have done some real damage." He moved over to the edge of the building, looking the way they came. "Safe this way, anyways. The six shooter's for life or death, and the tires would have been the only feasible target. I miss, I could hit an unintended target. Even if I hit, the amount of collateral would've been devastating." He made a mental note of the potholes, shaking his head. "Anyways, this high profile stuff ain't for me. I'm gonna find a way down and get another cup of coffee. I'll consider the offer." A pause. "Both offers. Don't get me wrong, I'd rock your world, but not sure you're my type." He started to walk off, reaching up to wipe more of the blood off his lip. Guess I should do something about this, too.

Sunadokei retorted back, "Isn't this is exactly the sort of thing we trained for, Cowboy?" She stood up and stretched, arching her back as she listened to Lone Wolf explain his tracking equipment. "Sensitive to UV, I'll let my Sidekicks know." She'd have them combing the streets by hand if it meant not letting a case slip between her fingers. "They won't ditch it, not until they can offload the money somewhere. Maybe a hideout, maybe a safehouse, maybe just some of warehouse and then they'll move on." Tokyo was huge, largest metropolis in the world by population and surface area. Plenty of places to hide...
"But they weren't looking for damage." Titanomachia added, looking down at the skid marks still etched in the road where the rocket fueled armored car had sped off. "They got their money, they left... with most of their crew intact. Objectives completed." She turned back to Lone Wolf, eying his other pistol before her gaze wandered up to his eyes, eyebrow raised. "More devastating than me throwing a parked car at them? Because that was gonna be my next move. I'm a pretty good shot." She clenched a fist an mocked a throw to illustrate her point. "Did track & field in high school, then again at U.A. Shotput, discus, and long jump." The first two were surprisingly relevant in her line of work. Especially when throwable objects were only ripping-a-chunk-of-concrete-out-of-the-ground away.
Sunadokei let out a soft sigh. "Then stick to low profile. We've got a captured Villain who needs interrogating. Can't you like, touch her and learn all about her crew?" Titanomachia gestured her hand as she spoke. She knew the name of Lone Wolf's Quirk, hell it was right there in the U.A. faculty webpage. Never mind the PHSC database. Watcher? Watchman? Watchtower? Whatever the name was, he could touch stuff and learn about it. She wasn't exactly familiar on the details, too many Heroes, too many Quirks. "Well, fire exit's over there." Sunadokei said gesturing towards the fire ladder on the side of the building. "Or I guess you can take the stairs." She pointed to the stairwell that actually led to the roof. "Orrr..."
Titanomachia jumped off the roof, in one swift gesture returning to her gigantified size with a heavy impact. She turned and offered a hand to Lone Wolf to stand on. "I could lend a hand." She added with a smirk. "Oh please Mark, Landslide said the same thing when we dated." Though the Hero was rather found of 'rock' puns, especially given his Quirk. "Hmm... I should really call him." Titanomachia said with a wistful sigh. "Well either way, call me when you make a decision about dinner... and business. I'd be eager for both, I can write it off as a business expense if we talk shop." She offered a coy smile, always eager to mix business and pleasure. Especially when it ended up tax deductible.
