Arell knew picking an argument with Crystal would be a losing battle, so he just shut up. If I didn't quit smoking for you, I could sure use a smoke right now. he thought. His attitude slightly improved seeing an old childhood friend.
"Someone I haven't seen in ages." he said, taking a chance as his reprieve from being nagged to death for a lapse in common sense. He walked over to C.J. and slapped him on the back. "You ol' sumbitch when'd you wind up in town?!?" Arell asked as they did some soul-brother handshake.
"Shoot, been up here since last night." C.J. said and paused, looking at Crystal.
"Aw, I'm sorry to be rude. I'm C.J. Benoit . . . uhh, no relation to the knucklehead." he said to Crystal, smiling and tipping his hat.
"Ceej, I want you to meet my girlfriend, Crystal. Crystal, if'n you're speaking to me at all for a while, this is my ol' friend C.J. . . . he's friends with Dundee's stepdad. No relation though." Arell said.
"It's nice to have da crew togeddah, but don't we have a certain Macready to follow?" Antigua asked.

Crystal walked off to the side some and was staring intently at a man hole. "Son of a bi-otch.... That mo-fo... I /hate/... Absolutely /hate/ going into the sewer on this side of town..." Crystal ranted only to herself about going down there for a few more minutes before she remembered everyone else around her.
When Antigua said something about MaCready she looked around and pointed at the man hole.
"He went that way..."

Big Daddy had changed into his costume and was now driving in the main sewer tubes with a Russian tank he salvaged. He had an appointment to keep....
Anyone following can easily smell the diesel exhaust.

"I guess dat means we're goin' in de sewer." Arell said.
"Damn, man. It just isn't y'all's day. No worries, mind if I tag along?" C.J. asked, a little curious about what's going on.
"Still got that knife?" Dundee asked.
"Hasn't left my side since Mississippi." C.J. replied.

"Best hold your nose, y'all." C.J. said as he caught the lid. Arell slid down into the sewers, followed by Antigua, Dundee and C.J., who closed the lid behind him. It reeked down there, but it didn't damper them.

"Um... okay then..."
She shook her head feeling quite ignored by the group.
"I am not a sewer person anyway... So I'll go this route"
Kai pulled out an earpiece and tuned it to the bustle of the sewers. She could hear the group as well as the tank moving below. She spread her wings and jumped up into the air taking a big swift motion downwards with her wings. She flew in the direction down the streets of Gotham following the group having her communicator on hand. She contacted Catgirl through her comm.
"Catgirl, I don't do sewers but what I can do is follow above till I catch up to him."

Crystal pulled out her com to respond to RC. "That's fine. Just be careful up there and... What the?" Crystal stopped transmitting.

[Enter Big Daddy from Underground Hideout]  Starting to emerge from one of the main accessways back to the surface, Macready powers his T-90 tank to smash through the iron grate -- crumpling it like paper. Coated in raw sewage and with glowing red light on wither side of the turret mounted cannon made the Russian tank slightly resemble some sort of monster. As Big Daddy made his final turn to start his straight run at the main gate leading into the Astor Hotel and its remote plot. Inside his arsenal of destruction, Damon smiled evilly, "This is for you, Honey Bunny." With that, Big Daddy switched on the 'Ride of the Valkyries' on the loud speakers.... .........   Inside a meeting room with aides for both heads of their respective criminal organizations, Carmine Falcone and Frank D'Amico came to agreements for conducting their business... When all of a sudden, all those in the room began to hear the growing crescendo of the German opera. Both heads of the criminal empires stare out of the enormous window to see glowing red lights approach the wall. "What the @#$%?" A brief moment that those lights are blocked by the brick outer wall into the main courtyard, the crash of the music heralds the sewage coated T-90 smashing through the wall -- ramping off the last part of the hilly plateau that the grounds were founded on. Fully getting airbourne by nearly ten feet at full speed, both Falcone and D'Amico scream in wide-eyed shock as the fifty ton tank crumples a black sedan flat. Bouncing once back up a few feet, Macready powers forward once he regains the grip of the tank treads on the impacted concrete. Driving through other vehicles, Macready heads straight for the richly windowed patio door to the conference room. "HOLY @#$&IN s**t!!! MOVE!!!" D'Amico shouts as he and Falcone scramble from the room. Several thugs from both sides flee, but half present in that room become riddled by automatic fire from the T-90 a split second before it smashes through the glass and runs through several armed gangsters and smashes through the other side of the conference room out the back of the hotel. Both Falcone and D'Amico and a few others run into the main hallway, escaping the first round of destruction from Big Daddy assault. Carmine shouts while running, "What the hell is hitting us!?!? The G@#$#@^ Army!?!" "How the @#$% should I know!?!?" Frank D'Amico shouts back.

((Enter Arell, C.J. and Dundee from Underground Hideout))
The guys made it out of the sewer just in time to see the tank fly into the air and crash down.
"Ho . . . " Arell said.
"Ly . . ." Dundee said, both in shock and awe. C.J. however, wasn't.
"Well s**t, boys. We got our work cut out for us. C'mon, let's move!" C.J. said as he ran up towards the tank.
"Don't we ever do something like plan?" Dundee asked as he and Arell took off to catch up to C.J.
"Plan? What's de matter wit' you? Spend too much time plannin' and by de time you done, it's too late." Arell growled. All of a sudden . . .
"Way to not invite me to th' party, y'all." Hex growled as he hopped off the horse and caught up with them.
"Dude, you know Hex?!?" C.J. said, surprised.
"The idjit tried to capture Billy th' kid back in my home time." Hex said with a sneer.
"Oh yeah . . . I forgot about that." C.J. said as they ran.
"Wait, what?" Arell asked.
"Hey now, quit th' chitchat, it's time t' get on it!"

Crystal, of course, after being the first one down into the sewer was the last one out, but at least she didn't smell like s**t like Dundee. She ran, full speed, at the boys.
"Don't you dare ever leave me behind with something like this! That imposter is my business to handle!" Catgirl shouted as she ran past them, sticking her tongue out and continuing on.
((Heightened agility = being a bit faster than everyone else XD))

After getting their doors blown off by Crystal, Arell rolled his sleeves up and loaded his shotgun.
"Remington?" C.J. asked as he got his bullwhip out.
"Winchestah 50-cal. Used dis fer huntin' turkey down in Lou'siana." Arell replied.
"Well, in that case, let's get 'em!" Dundee shouted.
"Good idea. Dundee, you go ahead in that tank . . . and after this is done, take a shower, pal . . . you reek." Hex growled.
"How'd he know my name?" Dundee asked.
"Incompetence often has notoriety." C.J. said as they got up to the tank, and Crystal.
"Time t' crack a can a' whupass on this dude." Arell said as C.J. cracked his knuckles.

Crystal pulled out a white clump of plastique and a few red painted Kunai. "Y'all might wanna back off boys! This'll have a real kick to it!"
She finally caught up wit the tank and threw the plastique onto the side of the rear wheel on the left side, intending on throwing her highest grade of explosive Kunai after she's dropped back some.
((Placed here))

Arell nodded and the guys stood back. The big Cajun tossed C.J. a gun.
"Aim fer anythin' that looks like a fuel tank!" Hex shouted.
"Betcha dis wasn't on yer plans for today, huh?" Arell asked, using his shotgun. C.J. had one of Arell's pistols and Dundee . . . just put his fingers in form of a gun and was shouting "Bang!" while pointing at the tank.
"My only plan for today was to catch a baseball game." C.J. replied as they shot at the tank.

"Stop Catgirl! There is a better way to solve these things give me a try in this."
Kai went intangibly through the door to the tank into the control room where the driver was. Immediately her first response was to try and knock him out. She had placed a mask over her face as she flew in and then reached for a knock out pellet prepared to throw it to the small space on the floor to KO him, although she was also prepared to fight if he too had a mask that covered his face.
(Catgirl and crystal are the same yes? And you guys are posting too quickly to give me any chance to post at all BT So not cool guys. that coupled with the fact that RC was ahead of yer characters over the tank obviously and they paid no mind to her existence through any of the posts except when she talked to catgirl directly in which case catgirl only paid mind to her existance B/.)
