Alias: Jonathan Price Status: Healthy Thoughts: That tickled.
Current Quiver: 65/75 16 Standard Arrows (1 nocked and ready) 18 Explosive Putty Arrows (5 are specially rigged Homing Arrows) 9 Smoke Arrows 10 Bola Arrows 3 Zip Line Arrows 5 Fire Extinguisher Arrows 4 Flash Bang Grenade Arrows
Cursing to himself when he saw his jury rigged arrow missed, Jonathan was about to reach for his Cluster Arrow Pack to fire at the so called God....and then it hit him. A sudden wave of dizziness hit the young archer and he fell to his knees on the debris he was on, banging up his left knee from the sudden impact. Clutching his head, he tried to rearrange his now jumbled thoughts so that he could plan some kind of action, but was finding no such luck. Couldn't of been vertigo, as he always was on time for his checkups with his personal physician. And there was no signs of Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV), Meniere’s disease, or Vestibular neuritis, which are all conditions that disrupt the inner ear and cause vertigo. There had to be something, or someone causing this.
His eyes darted around him, trying to ascertain who could of done this attack on him: and then his quarry came into sight. Now how did he put two and two together? Well first of all, Ace was looking straight at him, and psychic attacks, or at least some of them require eye contact. Now how would he know it was psychic in nature? Considering the same guy was holding up a building, it wasn't hard to figure that out. And luckily, he had a way of dealing with it. He did the best he could to nock a flash bang arrow onto his bow and did the best he can to aim said arrow at him. With his dizzy spell continuing, it was hard, and the arrow ended up going a foot to the left of Ace. And then the flash bang went off. To those it affected, it basically disrupted his inner ears and thus his own balance, deafened him, and blinded him temporally.
This was enough time to prepare another attack on Black Adam without Ace interfering. But he had to act fast. Taking out the Cluster Arrow Pack on his back, he opened up the cylinder and took out the normal explosive arrows inside. Now why was he doing this? Because he had 5 specially rigged explosive arrows in his quiver, and he was loading each and every one into the cylinder. Closing up the cylinder, he nocked it and aimed straight at Black Adam, turning on the laser sight that was on the rim of his sunglasses.....he aimed it straight at Black Adam's side and let the contraption loose.
Now, when the pack reached the halfway point of it's journey, it would shatter apart, releasing the 6 arrows inside. 1 was a normal exploding arrow, the rest had special chips and motors on the shaft that followed the laser that Jonathan had on his glasses, all the way to his target. Now if the target moved, as long as Jonathan can keep the laser on him, the arrows will adjust course to compensate. He was hoping for a situation in order to test this out and now, he found it.
Black Adam would now have 6 Explosive Arrows aimed straight at him.

There were times in which one had to make a decision, and right now, his decision was to stop Black Adam at all costs. If need be, he would find some way to make it up to the blonde male later, but right now, stopping a monster took priority. If the boy were foolish enough to enter the fight, then surely he knew what that entailed? The blonde male had even managed to send his sword towards Black Adam while being tossed at him, and to that he commended his bravery. When the boy's body hit him, Superboy remained firmly in place, forcing out more strength in his grip of Black Adam to make sure the male would go nowhere. For now, Wonder Boy, and the blonde male were attempting to take shots at Black Adam. If only the male got hit, then they could taken him down through whatever means neccesary.
But right not, the assurance that Black Adam could be hit and damaged would definitely turn the tides of battle; morally. If there was one thing he learned from Wonder Boy, it was that a fighter's morale was generally one of the main determining factors when it came to fighting battles. That, and the will to never give up.
Teth had managed to get himself into some mess now it seemed the mortal had remote control over his blade and as he was swung forth summoned the blade aimed at Teth's head. Teth would weave it, as best he could but it tore into his neck muscle leaving a large open wound and his blood on the blade of the sword, right before heading straight for the Themyscarian Princesses own head."ZAM!"He would shout loudly the moment he attempted his weave, in that instance several thing had happened. The mortal boy had broken something against the boy of steel. Teth would at light speed grip and grab the boy of steel tightly and take to the skies at Light Speed, dodging the inevitable flash of Magical lightning that would be headed straight for the metal and conductive tip of Wonder Boy's spear. At that the Green Clad nuisances arrows would fly straight. The flash of light most likely blinding the man with the best eyesight causing the arrows most likely to fly straight and also deal a blow to princess if the blade that had cut his trap open hadn't already pierced through his head, seeing as the flash should've also blinded him even if it didn't miss, leaving a lack of time to focus on "Dodging the bullet" as the mortals called it.
With the boy of steel in arms. Teth would take it upon himself to attempt to fly him through several buildings head first."You should've asked your father about me boy, I'm not so easily restrained!"Teth would shout as he continued to fly although he was prideful Teth had one of the greatest strategical minds on the planet, hitting him for a bunch of youth would never be so easy, hell it took one of the most experienced heroes in the league efforts upon efforts to beat him a misfit group of youth would not do it so lightly. He was prepared to destroy all of Metropolis if that meant beating these damned children.The cut would begin to heal as Teth flew with his Divine Physiology, it wouldn't take but a second.

"I want to hide the truth, I want to shelter you, But with the beast inside, there's nowhere we can hide."
At last, Striker's attack had been successful but he knew full well it would give the wonder lunk-heads a small opportunity, if any, to finish Black Adam off. But those thoughts aside, the male had to focus on keeping himself alive now. Upon colliding with Superboy, Striker could feel several ribs breaking, as well as his leg. The pain from his already broken arm was intensified, but miraculously he managed to stay conscious. Without anymore time to think, the male used his one good arm to grab a hold of the boy of steel, before throwing himself towards the ground just moments before Black Adam could burn him to a crisp along with the others. Once he had finished rolling across the ground a few times, the adrenaline kicked in. It was then that Striker completely disregarded his sword and instead, forced himself to stand in order to run far enough away from the battle zone. Once he was 50 feet away, he finally collapsed.
"Looks like it's up to you, idiot..."
With these final words, Striker let Allistair take back control as the teen's expression softened slightly. It wasn't long before his eyes became blank though, before he fell to his knees and onto the ground face first. Blood has covered both sides of his head by this point, before he slipped into unconsciousness.
"When you feel my heat, look into my eyes, Don't get too close, it's dark inside. It's where my demons hide."
Vandal, unfortunately, didn't make it very far across the park. Though the wind, zombies, and other acts of chaos were keeping the others occupied, he wasn't very inconspicuous. The bag of weapons strapped to his back, belt of daggers, and shield were noticeable. Especially to an Amazon. Vandal had nearly made it across the park when he was stopped. A small handful of Amazon warriors with scuffed and tattered armor placed themselves in his path. A few with their gaze fixed on the weapons he was carrying, all with their own swords and spears drawn. Their bodies were cut and bloodied, but not injured enough to hinder further fighting.
Vandal knew just by the look on their faces that they weren't about to let him pass by. He could try to tell them that he was only interested in getting back to his building before it was destroyed, but he doubted they would care. They seen the weapons he had, knew that he was dangerous because of that, and likely wouldn't trust him to vanish from anyone's site. Still, if he could avoid any unnecessary fighting, it was worth a shot.
Before he could even begin to try and talk them into letting him pass, a few of the women rushed towards him with swords drawn.
_______________________________[LOCATION]_ Edges of the Park: Stopped by Amazons.
_______________________[STATUS]_ On Alert: May have to slay some Amazons.
Immediate Goal: Needs to get to his building to move irreplaceable items that will be worthless to him if compromised or crushed under a building.
Right now needs to take care of Amazons who have stopped him.
Weapons: Series of blades worn on his belt, and a kryptonite blade sheathed in led. An Atlantean shield hanging off of the bag strapped to his back, filled with other Atlantean weapons acquired at Atlantis.

RETREAT

gaia_nitemareleft ~ Ace Adrienne ~ gaia_nitemareright King of Hearts
It's rather late, isn't it?
Ace wasn't expecting the archer to be able to fire off anything while his Psionic Blast was still effecting him, but all the same, he managed to send an arrow his way. There wasn't enough time for him to get up and get out of the way, so the young psychic just closed his eyes and braced himself. But the arrow never hit him. Instead, it missed and landed a foot away. For a few moments, Ace felt quite relieved. But then the flash bang went off.
Now rendered blind, deaf, and disoriented, he fell onto his back, quietly cursing under his breath. He knew that it would take a while for the dizziness to go away, and that he couldn't fight like this. He would have to retreat for now. He waited a few minutes for his hearing and vision to return for the most part, then slowly got to his feet. He sent a glare and a short message to the archer before staggering off, heading back to the Hearts Syndicate HQ. I suppose I underestimated you, archer. I will not make that mistake a second time, should we meet again.
Luke we need to have a bit of a talk; I know that Black Adam is strong and everything and I give it to you that you're putting up a hell of a fight but right now, not only are you almost dodge-botting everything but you're not even using the character correctly when it comes to using the Word of Power.
If this goes on we will have to talk about your place in the event. Some of this hardly makes sense. If you wish to talk to me about it please use the Event OOC, not the Skype Chat, nor PMs. Thank you for your cooperation.
For now, I'm allowing everything to stand as is and for you all to continue but if this keeps up, I will be forced to close the thread until a decision or agreement has been reached.

Alan Cypher
Alan had awaited patienly for the chick to come and face him when the building he was standing on began to crumble beneath. He just let a very annoyed sigh as he muttered. "Sonuvabitch." and then without further hesitating began to chant a slowfall and spell coupled with him channeling additional magical energy into his trenchcoat before leaping off the side of the building and slowing falling into the smokey debris below. Vanishing out of the medium's sight. However Alan also began to hide his magical aura so that his location couldn't be pinpointed he needed a moment to think.
Though that's when he heard the explosion and the shouting of Shazam it seemed like the battle amongst the superheroes was starting to heat up. Alan was thinking maybe it was time he took more active measures when a sword flew through the air and imbedded into some debris and on it glistened the magical blood of Black Adam. "Ooo now isn't that just lucky of me and all apropos too." He said as he pulled out the talisman and rubbed it on the blood murmuring a transference spell. As the talisman links itself with Black Adams blood and in relation Black Adam himself. The link served as 2 purposes the first it was a direct link from Black Adam to Alan allowing for the next part. Alan now had the powerful voice of Black Adam and Black Adam had the voice of a snarky b*****d from England.
With the link complete Alan slipped the talisman into his pocket and with a massive grin shouted into the air. "SHAZAM!!!!" Which was followed by a massive lightning bolt coming crashing down and turning Alan into a superpowered hero of incredible strength. While at the same time draining Black Adam of a majority of his power if not completely returning him to Teth Adam.
Alias: Jonathan Price Status: Healthy Thoughts: You crazy b*****d
Current Quiver: 65/75 16 Standard Arrows (1 nocked and ready) 18 Explosive Putty Arrows (5 are specially rigged Homing Arrows) 9 Smoke Arrows 10 Bola Arrows 3 Zip Line Arrows 5 Fire Extinguisher Arrows 4 Flash Bang Grenade Arrows
It doesn't look like those arrows would hit. And Jonathan was really looking forward to seeing what his new contraption would do. The fighting seemed to be more intense and when Black Adam started flying away, carrying Superboy, a massive bolt of lightning struck where they were fighting. Jonathan covered his eyes with his arm to block the white flash, noting that the purple headed teen was gone. But he did hear his voice in his head. The man was spouting about underestimating him and not doing it again if they ever met. Jonathan kept it in mind, but otherwise he focused on the bigger issues in front of him.
Events went by quickly, but what he did see was a building crumble to the left of him, Alan floating down. The way his trenchcoat opened, as if catching the air as he parachuted down (best way Jonathan can describe it), made it both somewhat comical, and pretty badass. And then he heard the word, SHAZAM!!! and looked straight to where he believed it was yelled from. With Black Adam's voice, Jonathan nocked an arrow and aimed it at where he heard Black Adam's voice, despite how futile it was to try to hurt him with regular arrows. But it wasn't Black Adam he saw.....it was Alan.
What the hell was all that planning for? Had Jonathan risked his life, taunting a self proclaimed God, so Alan could steal his power? Even temporally? Jonathan had mixed emotions about it. He was angry for being manipulated for another man's purposes.....and he smiled at the results.
Arturia came out into Metropolis on the very edge of the battlefield. Her door-hop had worked. She had been a bit worried about using that ability while she was such an emotional wreck, but fortunately, she had gotten where she wanted to go. She took a good look at her surroundings as she drew Excalibur and moved in closer, nearly getting sick again. It was even worse here than it was back at Dropaway Beach. Buildings had crumbled, strange lightning flashed nearby, and bodies littered the ground, blood staining the grass. It was almost enough for her to wish that she had stayed back at Jonathan's home. But there was work to do here.
However, she was greeted by one somewhat happier sight. Not too far from her current position stood Jonathan himself, up on a large chunk of rubble, looking relatively unharmed, which was a huge relief to the young knight. She had been so worried when he went off, knowing that he could be killed during the battle. When he hopefully noticed her, she would give him a clearly forced smile and wave. She knew that she probably looked like a complete mess at the moment. She was covered in blood and sand, her dress was torn and singed, her hair hung down loose around her shoulders, the few strands closest to the slashes that the demon had left on her cheek clotted with drying blood. She carried Excalibur in her left hand, rather than her right as she usually did, and her body language told that she was feeling pain across her shoulders and upper back. That demon had done a number on her.
Her draconic side, however, drew her attention to another man, one wearing a trenchcoat. Something, likely her intuition, told her that he had highly advanced magic. Who was he?
Location: Queensland Park With: Green Arrow and Queen Arturia Feeling: Annoyed/Aggravated
Given his positioning, he wasn't able to see the blade strike Black Adam, but he had seen the blood fall from the wound. However, he did manage to see the blade aimed directly at his head, and having turned himself into an awkward position, Wonder Boy manage to deflect the blade off of his bracers and onto the ground. The sound of lightning then drew his attention to the sky, for as the magic lightning came down towards them, Wonder Boy cast his spear aside before crossing his bracers over each other directly beneath the lightning bolt. The impact of the magical lightning was much more than he could have ever anticipated, and with no connection to the Egyptian Gods, Wonder Boy was forced to take a knee as the bolt remained clashing with his bracers. At this point, it became a battle between the Egyptian Gods and the Greek Gods Champion, and as the bolt continued to come down, a small crater formed beneath Wonder Boy's feet as he was forcibly pushed down. Excess lightning that managed to fall from his bracers was shocking the Amazonian male in multiple areas, until the lightning subsided. Soon enough, the lightning had subsided, and as his arms fell down to his sides, smoke could be seen rising off of the bracers themselves.
Beneath the bracers, his skin had been heated tremendously, and had it not been for his Amazonian ability to heal at a rapid rate, he undoubtedly would have been on the ground cringing in pain. Sadly, this was only the beginning of his problems, for with his arms numb, there was no avoiding the arrows headed in his direction. Moving to the side of the first two arrows, Wonder Boy prepared to defend himself, only to have the arrows explode upon hitting the ground. The concussive force then served to push him in the direction of the remaining arrows. Fighting through the temporary numbness of his arms, he lifted them to cross his face just as the arrows collided with his body. A cloud of smoke went up, and almost immediately after Wonder Boy's body was flung from the smoke cloud. It sailed through the air at a quick speed before slamming into the ground near Green Arrow, causing quite the crater and small quaking for the area around his impact. For a moment, he didn't move, and in truth, he had intended to remain still. That is to say, until the word was shouted once more. This time however, by a male in a trench coat. He didn't seem to be a villain, but if he suddenly had the powers of Shazam, then it was undoubtedly because of something that happened with Black Adam. Had the blood been acquired?
No matter, sitting upright, he remained on the ground in order to observe the rest of the fight. His arms were numb and as it stood, there were still smoke trails leading off of his body from the explosive arrows. He would have words with Jonathan after the battle was over because of his arrows.
OOC: The bracers have blocked Shazam's lightning bolt in the comics, and to date, are on of the few things that can hold back Darkseid's Omega Beams.

"Heads up, you're about to be a pincushion"
Alias: Jonathan Price Status: Healthy Thoughts: ********, ********, ********, ********, ******** Quiver: 65/75 16 Standard Arrows (1 nocked and ready) 18 Explosive Putty Arrows (5 are specially rigged Homing Arrows) 9 Smoke Arrows 10 Bola Arrows 3 Zip Line Arrows 5 Fire Extinguisher Arrows 4 Flash Bang Grenade Arrows
It seemed to be winding down. From the looks of things, the battle was coming to an end. The battle of Gods has been decided. Now was a good time to observe his surrounding and probably put out any fires he sees. He looked around from the debris pile he was perched on and caught out of the corner of his eye the sight of Evie Sinclair. Normally he would wonder why she was here, but the answer came to him: if she was here, that means Coast City has been decided in favor of her and the defenders there. He was contemplating going down and making sure she was okay, but he could tell she wasn't. Not only by the way she looked, but by the way she greeted him. A forced smile and a wave, it didn't seem like the Evie Sinclair he knew.
And then an explosion drew his attention back to where the lightning struck earlier and he realized that it wasn't lightning exploding. No, that sounded like his own explosive arrows. And since Black Adam didn't get hit by them, it meant an ally was. Couldn't of been Superboy, so it meant either the blond swordsman or-
"Oh s**t," he said as he realized that Wonderboy was the one hit. Not because of some intuition of his, but by the fact his body was flying in his general direction. By reflex, Jonathan just jumped off the large debris chunk and rolled onto his feet, his head looking at the crater where Wonder Boy was. He hoped he didn't just hurt an ally!
"Arturia!" he cried out for her, the only person nearby that could potentially help him and he went straight for the crater with Wonderboy in it. Even though he knew the Amazon was much tougher than Jonathan is, human emotion was outweighing logic. He was scared, worried even, that his own arrows had hurt another good man. Like he did many years ago, during his freshman year of college.
No, he shouldn't think about that. His current objective is to help Wonderboy. He can't wallow in self pity. The Green Arrow slid into the small crater Wonder Boy was in and he breathed a sigh of relief. Thank God he wasn't dead or dying. But Damien could see he was worried for the Amazon. Kneeling beside him, Jonathan managed to finally say, "Oh my God Damien, I am so, so sorry about that. I did not mean to shoot you!"
He couldn't even look at Damien, his fists clenched as he fought back the urge to cry or curse himself for his stupidity. All the while, he couldn't help but replay the image in his head. What if by some strange twist of fate, he did kill Wonderboy? He couldn't bear to think of how badly he would of beat himself up for failing.
As much as Agrona was trying, her energy was completely depleted with that last move, so staying awake was a no go, let alone try something else. Her vision became fuzzy until eventually blacking out completely. Staggering on her feet she would eventually fall down on the roof if nothing interrupted that movement. The rest of what went on in the battler field would go unknown to her. Winning or losing hadn't mattered to her anyways.

Teth as he flew with Superboy through several buildings could see Agrona was falling, he was unsure to what she had done, but it seemed she was at her end. Black Adam would c**k his fist back and punch Superboy square in the nose, trying to make him release his grip, as he at Supersonic speeds flew at Agrona caught her and took off hitting Mach 10 before suddenly his powers began draining, and he was slowing, already outside of Metropolis and heading for Gotham. He don't know what the mortals had done but he would pay them back heavily.

Things had taken a turn for the worse, and before he could move to re-adjust, it seemed as though everything and nothing happened at the same time. Everyone's attack had came close, but only the boy who had slammed into his body had managed to attack through some type of remote control with his sword. However, moments after, Black Adam had taken them both to the skies, avoiding the magical bolt of lightning that he himself had called down onto the area. Black Adam had then taken a firm hold of Superboy, and within moments, he was being slammed through individual buildings, with each one they passed through crumbling down towards the ground. It was not until Black Adam's hold on him loosened that he prepared to strike back. Unfortunately, the male had already swung at him, and the most he could do was lift his arms in order to guard himself against the blow. When the hit finally made contact with his crossed arms, the force of the attack sent him slamming through multiple floors before crashing down on the building's first floor. Fortunately enough, the building was only a building that had recently been built and was only recently beginning to put out advertisements for available living space.
Well, it looked like production would have to restart. Exiting the building, he began to rub the side of his head before his feet left the ground and were in the air once more. By time he had flown back over to where the fight had originally been, it seemed as though Black Adam had taken off, and Wonder Boy had been hit considerably hard, given the crater he was sitting in. He had no idea what had happened, but now, another male bore the same lightning bolt symbol that Black Adam donned. Strangely enough, his friends were not attacking, so was the male on their side? No matter, hopefully someone would explain it to him. Landing at Wonder Boy's feet he extended a hand to the male in order to get him back onto his feet. "I guess we won..?" He could not see any other Atlanteans, and the ones that he could see were already blocks away attempting to get back to the sea as quickly as possible. "Everyone alright?"
