    Another Road

    As very welcome as the new arrival is, Captain Wonder can't help but briefly think Just how many heroes are in this city? There are a lot of people around he's never met before, and no time to draw on the Wisdom of Imhotep for a clue. But the new man seems to have his head on straight, and that's what really counts. He leaves 'Star' with his ears ringing and dives into the heart of the melee. It takes him only a moment to see the main threat, and he acts quickly. "Gun!" he calls, not sure of what the payload is or what damage it can do to his ally. (Or himself, for that matter.) He dives for the bazooka and rips it right out of the hands of the SHADOW thug. "Little boys shouldn't play with guns!"

  3. Okay, using all-out attack to hopefully tag Megastar, then move-by action to fly towards the Nazis. Wonder's flight/super-strength array is currently set at Flight 5, Super-Strength 1.

    Captain Wonder doesn't put a whole lot of effort into dodging a punch he would have taken easily in the old days. That makes it all the more infuriating when the punch not only strikes home, but hits hard enough to send Wonder's ears ringing! The man who once took full-on punches from a mind-controlled Centurion is rocked back on his feet. The blow itself, and the discomfort behind it, are enough to truly cheese the old man off. "They're getting away!," he shouts in frustration, before throwing his own punch at the jumped-up hooligan. Despite his anger, he keeps holding back. Fred Fawcett has been in a war and killed men; he's not going to go all-out in a superbattle until he's sure of just how powerful he is these days. Not unless he is sorely pressed. A little belatedly, Wonder realizes that he's letting himself get distracted from his larger purpose. Even as he throws the punch, he rockets up into the air, hopefully faster than the kid can fly, in the direction of the fleeing Nazis. Perhaps the sight of a better target will shake some sense into 'Star', though Wonder is a hair's breadth away from doing some shaking of his own.

  9. OK, spent that last hero point as soon as I got it (like ya do! ) to reroll my block, giving me a total of 25 vs. Megastar's attack. Blowing a lot of hero points in this scene, but that's what they're there for. And my defense has now dropped to five with all-out attacking on the block.

    "Why, you..." Though he is sorely tempted, unlike some people, Captain Wonder doesn't swear in the middle of battle. (Not where people can hear, anyway.) Despite the urge to lay into this punk, Wonder remembers that he's supposed to be the grownup here. With the Nazi beams bouncing off his body, Wonder leaves himself wide-open as he throws up his arm to intercept the punch. "Fight the Nazis, you idiot!"

  18. Well, that certainly was a lot of hero points blown: 1 for the Super-Breath off Super-Strength 1 to surge 1 to power-stunt Whirlwind Attack off the Super-Strength (Which did 4 damage each; he's not power-attacking even Nazis until he's sure he can do it without breaking anyone's head) 1 to reroll the natural 1 on the attack on the Nazis (though that would have been hilarious in a dark sort of way) And more to grow on...

    In a moment, Captain Wonder is in the air. Clad in the gold and white of the Ogdoad, the very colors of the sun and moon, he is an unmistakeable figure in the sky. "Hey! You kids!" His first priority is the fools in the air; he's not going to hurt anyone fighting Nazis, but he still has to put a stop to their shenanigans. When he has their attention, Captain Wonder takes a deep, deep breath, and exhales with the power of Shu himself. There is a mighty wind, safely above the heads of the crowd, as the sheer power of Captain Wonder's lungs batters the two young punks. Trusting that he's got their attention, Captain Wonder moves. With a blur of speed, he falls on the crowd below, striking again and again as he finds each and every minion of SHADOW. If he was careful not to hurt the kids in the air, he shows no such mercy to the neo-Nazi terrorists below, and his speed lets him strike again and again with his fists without hurting the fleeing people below. "That's the way you do it!" he exults, looking remarkably pleased with himself as he lands his fist right on a Nazi's jaw! There are other Nazis around, but hey, everyone knows Nazis are cowards. The ones who get away aren't shooting at anyone, at least.
