"A true prince of the sea would have recognized a stalling tactic when he sees it."
Namor flies up as a fresh new wave of muck washes into the sewer system all over Arthur!

OOC: Makaku! 500 gold and 50 cool-points to anyone who knows what I'm talking about.
Not letting the irony escape him, Arthur emits a quick "Oh, crap," before the wave hits him. Before he has completely lost control beneath the waves of pure disgustipation, however, Arthur launches toward the top of the tunnel, bringing a large wave along with him when he exits the water.

::: The yellow waste byproducts floating around them flee down the oversized drainpipe, agitated by a thunderous sounds which rattles the walls around them:::
THOOM!
:::The sounds grow louder and closer, but they fight on:::
THOOM!
:::The walls crack around them and the... footsteps grow louder and more determined:::
THOOM!
:::The yellow waste byproducts have become rubber duckies, and they are now gathered around an enormous figure, a towering, gargantuan, yellow, mutha rubber duckie. It glares down at them through angry slits:::
QUACK!
:::The mother duck has come to protect its' flock:::

*looks up at the towering mother ducky*
"Great Neptune! What manner of beast is this!?"
(you can sure tell Tony Stark didn't build this AI!)
Namor launches himself at this new impending threat and collides with it but the waving "mother duck" tilts and bounces back, ricocheting Namor right off of her and in a brilliant stroke of luck, sends him crashing into Aquaman and plows him against the drain wall!

OOC: Sorry about the delay. My connection decided to die for a few minutes there.
While the collision knocked both of them down, it didn't catch Arthur as straight as Namor might've hoped. While Namor is still somewhat dazed, Arthur picks himself up and kicks Namor right in the face.

(ooc: Namor didn't get sent into the wall....he crashed into Aquaman and Aquaman got sent into the wall...how was Namor dazed?)
Namor grabs his foot and swings, sending Aquaman Arthur Curry head-first into the iron gratings, wedging his head in between the steel bars!

Prince Namor MacKenzie (ooc: Namor didn't get sent into the wall....he crashed into Aquaman and Aquaman got sent into the wall...how was Namor dazed?) OOC: Ah, sorry. I figured you meant that Namor crashed into Aquaman, which sent both of them flying back. Though muffled, one can still hear a faint grunt from Arthur as he pushes free of the iron bars, slashing Namor across the chest with his hook-hand as he stumbles away from the wall.

Word travels fast in Kapow!, probably faster than Wally, were he alive. Tad stood outside the Cyberdome, after hearing that the detective was supposed to be in there running simulations. Tad wanted to help, because afterall... the guy who murdered Wally needed to be brought to JUSTICE. And if there was one thing Tad was good at, it was delivering JUSTICE to EVILDOERS.

::::This unit does not understand BioOrganism term 'funny stuff....'::::
::::Loading program...::::
The metallic surroundings of the cyberdome quiver and melt away into a cheerful domestic home. The front door opens directly into the living room, which is connected to a kitchenette. A stairway snakes upstairs off to the left.

Bigby walks around the simulation, nodding as he looks.
This is good. This is close. Mrs. West did a fine job with the program.
He turns and heads up the stairs to the second level. He grabs the doorknob of the study and turns it....
"Ai, upload 'Murder Scene 1.0'..."
The surroundings ripple again, and in the study things change...books and papers are strewn about. Bloody handprints are on two of the walls.
A corpse lies, face down, in the middle of the floor.

Bigby crouches by the holographic representation of Wally's body and wrinkles his nose.
No matter what the place looks like, it still smells like the Cyberdome.
He rises, stepping off to the side.
Ai, load simulation "Kitty the Killer."
