 Wichita, Kansas is often called the Air Capital of the World. Home to McConnell Air Force Base, the city was able to fend for itself well before the heroes ever arrived in Kansas, its air units taking down most of the League of Conquerers. By the time Strategist's forces arrived, the battle was nearly over, and the League of Conquerers had been forced into retreat. The city itself took very minimal damage, and secured the borderline. Of all the areas on this border, Strategist is the least worried about Wichita, because it has proven it can easily take care of itself. Of course, this defeat was the most humiliating to Positron, as this was the only defeat he took at the hands of the military, and even some civilians who sent 747's crashing into some of the more powerful villains. The casualty rates were extremely high for Positron's side, because the "no killing" rule applies to heroes only, not soldiers or civilians.

The teleporter dropped Katran and Quickdraw in the middle of Wichita. Literally. Katran had to throw up shields and using black energy ropes, tried to jerk both herself and Quickdraw out of the middle of a busy street, with cars honking, swerving, screeching, and one even ending up in a fender-bender as a result. "Sorry!" she cried out to the driver of the car. "Stupid teleporter. Knew I should have taken the jet." Her grumbling continued for a few moments as she got to her feet. "You okay?" she asked.

Quickdraw slowly opened his eyes as the light from the teleporter faded away. He saw the oncoming cars, he heard the horns honking. He started to move, trying to get out of the way before he became roadkill. He took one step away before he was promptly yanked in the other direction, towards Katran. He landed with a thud on the sidewalk and quickly rolled over before pulling his rifle off his back and taking aim down the sights. Apparently, he was overreacting. They had just landed in the middle of the road it seemed. "Well, that was embarrassing. And I'm fine, don't worry. I'll be sure to say something if I get hurt, otherwise I'll just keep my mouth shut."
Quickdraw stood up and flicked the safety off and turned on his red dot. He was around civilians, but he'd rather not have to take a second to ready his rifle, in case something did happen. Plus, he was a good enough shot to not hit the civilians, well, unless they decided to run in front of the rifle for some reason. "I guess we should get started now? So, I guess I'll take off now, unless you have something you want to say."

Katran shook her head. "Nope. Take the south side of town, I'll take the north. Stay in radio contact and we should be good." With that, Katran became engulfed in a blaze of blue energy and blasted off though the air towards the north.

Hotbox, one of the newest members of the LoTH, was heading towards Kansas with all the speed he could. Some two miles out of town, a motorcycle sat idling, emitting a throaty rumble that vibrated the eardrums of the man that sat upon its finely-tooled leather seat. Seeing the town in the distance, Hotbox had stopped his 'cycle, and now sat, fiddling in his pocket, with some difficulty. The armoursuit he wore underneath his clothes rubbed like sandpaper on his skin, making his grumble loudly as he dug in the pocket of his jeans. After a minute or so, Hotbox extricated a small radio and thumbed the "on" switch, drumming his fingers on the casing as he tuned the radio to the frequency the Strategist had given him.
"Katran, this is Hotbox. The Strategist sent me to join your patrol." He ground out in his gravelly voice. As he sat, shifting uncomfortably, Hotbox amused himself by conjuring small flames out of mid-air and sending them into orbit around his short-cut hair.
Can't believe I got sent to Kansas. I mean, this backwater hick-town probably doesn't even have a casino. Hotbox snorted, his mouth twisting into a derisive sneer.

Quickdraw watched as Katran took to the skies and shrugged. "Ok then." He straightened his helmet up a bit before starting off in the opposite direction in a sprint. He was covering ground fast enough to past most of the cars on the road as nothing but a blur, but still managed to keep an eye out for potential threats.

As the depressing Dirigible floated closer to Kansas, White Misery began to recall how well this place can defend itself, and well, his small balloon and casket didn't make him seem the friendly type. So as soon as he was close enough he let his Dirigible sink down to the ground and melt back into Black Tear and back into the crystal onto his neck. He made the rest of the way on foot. Once he made it ok into city(with little to none complications) he began to walk the streets. He held the pendant close to his neck. Lets cause a little trouble. "A-alright." White Misery said softly as he let just four drops hit the ground. The drops quickly formed into Grave Robbers who split ways and would begin to cause trouble.

Cecil flew through the skies. His wings gleaming in the sunlight. He landed just outside the city, and walked the rest of the way. While he was walking, he went over his objective. It was simple enough, though he knew that the Heroes wouldn't make it easy. He arrived in the city. He looked around, and everything seemed peaceful so far. "I'll wait untill the others get here" Cecil said, smiling. He decided to kill time with his favourite hobby. He abducted a young woman, and took her to a secluded area, where he tortured her, until she died. Cecil felt truly alive at that moment.

Zeal's cloak whipped about behind him as his bike roared through the streets leading to Wichita. His bike screeched to a halt right in front of a police cruiser. Smirking the villain waved at the cops inside before picking the bike up off the ground and slamming it into the top of the car.
The airbags suddenly deployed stunning the cops temporarily as Zeal moved his bike aside so that he himself could get up onto the hood. Thrusting his hands through the windshield he grabbed both cops by the face and slammed their heads together to knock them out. He had no reason to kill them after all.
Before he left the cops alone he made sure to ruin the engine of the vehicle. It wouldn't stop them from calling in but at the very least it would be two less normal beings possibly caught in a super powered fight. He had no illusions as to what he would be viewed as if his plans ever came to fruition but that didn't mean he wanted to have people senselessly killed.
Heading into Wichita Zeal found himself a parking garage. Grinning the dark haired former hero drove into it. Katran had the gift of flight so it only made sense to get high up. True he could fly as well but he liked having the motorcycle. The tires squealed as he made one tight turn after another at high speed. Once he was on the top of the garage he parked the bike and looked around for Katran's flying form.

Katran's Tactics Cell began to go off, and she pulled the thing off the holster on her belt. She fumbled with it a bit as she floated, complaining quietly about Strategist's obsession with tech devices and how good old-fashioned telephones would be better, until she finally managed to get the program running that indicated there was a sonic vibration in the area that was unnatural. She had no idea what that meant.
Katran was, by no means, an unintelligent person, but she wasn't particularly technologically savvy. That was Strategist's domain. So instead of trying to deal with the nonsense, she phoned Strategist directly.
"Strat, it's Katran. I got this reading on my phone. What does it mean?" At this point, she was flying about two hundred feet over main street.

Zeal's blue eyes gazed across the city as he searched for Katran. He smirked when he finally caught sight of the heroine. Grinning the former hero started wheeling his bike backwards as he watched Katran fumble about with the Tactic's cell and placed a call to Strategist. True attacking her while she was calling Strategist would instantly alert the leader of the heroes to the situation however at the moment she was distracted and the auto teleport that the cell contained was now targetable.
He revved the engine of his bike a few times before going full throttle and shooting towards the concrete rim of the parking garage. He popped a wheelie near the rim and with a little of his flight powers he cleared it and was flying towards Katran from behind. Continuing to pull back on the bike he did a back flip and kicked off the seat of the motorcycle sending it flying back over the parking garage while launching him even faster at Katran. A blade of dark blue energy formed in his hand and as he shot towards Katran aiming to tackle her in midair this blade slashed out at the electronic device she was using for communication.
