Welcome to Gaia! ::

Pixie paused in thought. "Well I don't have a computer... it sorta broke when I was moving, and everyone else I can think of with a good computer want to throw me in jail." She frowned, "Maybe an internet cafe?"

[Since Scarecrow’s out, we’ll say that all of the civilians are back to normal and no longer attacking the heros. Incredibly sick, but back to normal]


Reaper had started to head back towards Gotham, but the current fight had caught his attention as well, so he found a nice dark alley to stand and watch safely.

Shocker had been making his way away from the city though the alleys when a girl suddenly appeared in front of him. He took a step back and looked her up and down a moment. ”Yeah, and who are you?”
Her outfit, she had to be a super or someone pretending to be. Knife in her hand, but that was nothing for him to disarm.

”You think so? Kid, do you have any idea who you’re talking to?” Shocker said as he aimed both gauntlets at the girl, ready to blast her smug little head off.

”That would be a yes.” Shocker replied, sending a vibro blast at her. He didn’t use full power on her, he didn’t need to waste it on this brat.

”Wh-what the he-” Shocker started, realizing that he couldn’t move.

”Don’t worry. I’m wanting to kind of prove to my meme that I can be a good girl. So I’m going to go with the humane psychopath approach for a while.” she said, then telekinetically tossed the man on the ground and froze him there. She moved so that she was standing directly over top of him. The dark alley mixed with the light coming from the street behind her cast a chilling shadow over her face. Her gold eyes were still glowing, but there was something very dark to them now. There also seemed to be something sparkling in the air around her head. During the day, they were quite hard to see, as well as the constant glow of the city streets even at night. But there was a reason she called herself Gold Star, that could usually only be seen in the dark. ”You won’t feel a thing.” she said quietly. ”Oh, and don’t feel bad about this. You might be a super villian or what-not, but I’m telekinetic, telepathic, can teleport, blah blah blah. You couldn’t do much if I actually cheated like this.”
She paused a moment, then pulled the mask part of her costume down off of her face to reveal her dark little grin. ”I really do like your gauntlets.” she said, then slid the mask back over her mouth and nose, then slid her hood over her curly black hair to finish cloaking her face. She used one last bit of mixed telekinesis on him to silence him from drawing attention from the heros to his spot. She drew the dagger up, then came straight down on him.

A few long moments later, the soft punching sounds stopped. Another moment or two later, Star walked into the opening of the alley, sliding her new toys into her large pouch along with the ones she had stolen from that laboratory. She glanced at her hand a moment. The black cloth almost seemed darker compared to the rest. Taking a quick look at the rest of her, she found that only bits of her gold armor could be seen through the red splatters that drifted down her. Oh, she was messier than she though she’d been. She really must have been out of it. She shrugged a bit and pulled a dirty cloth out of a nearby garbage can to try and wipe the blood from her armor. She’d have to take it off and wash it later. She just needed to make it less obvious that she was covered in blood. Someone was sure to find the man, the alley was kind of in the middle of the city, and she didn’t need to be found all bloody when he was found.
She took the cloth and wiped off her scythe as well, but simply wrapped the dagger in the bloodied cloth rather than wipe it off. She slid the dagger into her pocket, then pulled her cape over her shoulders to let it drape around her, just to hide herself a bit more.
She glanced around a moment, then stepped out of the alley. Luckily, there weren’t anyone on the street. Must have all been with the heroes. Now to find her uncle and give him his dagger back. Star started down the street, then stopped when her eyes found a tall red-head about her age walking down the other side of the street. From tapping into the younger spider’s mind, she recognized her as the boy’s girlfriend. Her dark little smile returned and she started heading towards the girl.

Pixie grinned, "For sure! I always come to New York when things get too tough in Gotham!" She said cheerfully grabbing Natalia's wrist and pulling here towards a small business district. There were a few small bookstores, coffee shops and other small shops. "I think there's one around here..." She mumbled looking around the street.

Spidergirl heaved a sigh of relief once the people stopped attacking them. She heard the ink blotted masked man say something about a masked man and she hurried over to him and Spider-man. "Where is he?" She asked curious on who'd be dumb (Or smart) enough to kill someone right under the noses of all of these superheros.

Gold Star continued straight towards the red head, but glanced back through the corner of her eye. Blast it...wasn't expecting him to be found that quick. Her cloak and hood dindn't exactly say everyday clothing either. Well, keep her mind open and she should be able to tell if someone came to confront her. Right now she had...Mary Jane was it...to contend to.
As she was looking at the heros, something in the sky caught her eyes. Hm...looks like they still had some problems to deal with anyway. That superguy was still fighting that...troll thing too. They had plenty to deal with. Besides, getting the bugs girlfriend out of immediate danger would be a 'good' thing, right?

Not paying attention, she began drifting closer to the buildings beside her. A door opened from a caffe and someone stepped out. Star ran directly into them and felt hot water dump down the side of her arm. "AGH! Watch it, idiot!" she hissed, suddenly moving her scythe into an attack position with the arm that hadn't been burned.
She went to look up at them, but her reflection in the glass caught her eye. Cloak was filthy. Did she even have blood on her face? And from what she could see of her hair...uck.

The man, judging from how deep his sigh sounded, side stepped her and started to pass her. Star's mind snapped back to what she had been doing and spun around to face him. "Hey! I'm not done with you! I think you owe me an appology and dry cleaning!" she growled.

The man, wearing all black and a bulky black leather jacket, paused a moment, but didn't look at her. Though he may have been, but his hood with that thick rim of fur around it hid everything from the nose up. "You were the one who wasn't paying attention." he replied. "I think you owe me another coffee."

"I aint paying for your da-"

"I didn't pay for it." he replied.

Star looked at him a moment, then decided to just rummage through his mind. He was a villian or some petty crook then? Whatever the case, she'll make him sorry...he...

Star stopped, and her eyes widened a bit. She moved back around him to look inside the doorway that was still open.
The cashier had basically fallen asleep on the stand, another worker was shouting something about hating his job and was busting up all of the machines in the back. Some of the customers were actually getting into a fist fight, a few had about a months' supply of consumables in front of them, one woman wouldn't look away from her reflection, and the other woman she was with looked beyond jealous of her.

"The ones that are fighting left their orders about two minutes after I walked in. They weren't going to drink them, so I simply took one so it didn't go to waste. Lot of good that did."

Star looked back at the man again, then shook her head and looked back at him angry again. "Well...I'm still not getting you another coffee. There are about ten of them in there that haven't been touched. Get it yourself." she hissed.

The man sighed and turned to walk away. "I had it half gone anyway. Your bangs are uneven by the way." he said as he walked off.

Star gasped slightly and turned back to her reflection. Wait...no they weren't. Why that...
"HEY!" she shouted as she slammed the door so she could see him. But...he was gone. Completely.
