Living Legends

[SotF]

Harry blinked as a car came flying his way and paused long enough to raise a hand and channel his magic to do his will.

It had been a long time since he required a command or help of any kind for all but the most powerful or exotic of spells unless he wanted to do it instantaneously, and even then many spells could still be done on the fly.

The instant before the vehicle could impact, he snapped his fingers and the car was transformed into a flock of iridescent Quetzal birds that rushed past him and his summoned dragon.

"Showtime," he chuckled with a bow as if to the crowd.

His eyes burned bright as if with an inner flame as he surveyed the destruction around them.

"Alright buddy," he whispered to his winged ally, "Let's show this fool just why they can't take us on."

A roar was the only response he needed as the dragon leaped skywards to soar towards their foe.

Xander grinned as he flowed between the blows the beast tried to rain upon him.

He was no longer a mere man, but Superman made manifest.

An opening gave him a chance to counter attack with a double handed blow to the back of the head after it overreached.

The creak followed by a roar was the warning he got as the ground collapsed, cement and asphalt dropping into the sewers below.

He went airborne, hovering for a moment as Hulk launched himself into the void below with a battle cry about being the strongest.

Diving in himself, cape flowing behind as he drove both fists into the abominations stomach at full speed only to be batted away once more, plowing through a dozen buildings.

Jonothan Levinson felt the rage leave as he gasped for air, the power draining as he struggled to move.

Unable to move, unable to fight after the four armed freak of nature drove Hulk into the muck beneath the streets like a carpenter would a nail into a board. It was cold and wet as the busted pipes above tried to submerge him

Fear had replaced the blinding rage.

"Get up you sorry excuse for a bastard," he heard a voice yell.

He reached towards it.

"Did you hear that hulk," it continued, almost mocking him, "He asked if you just bend over for anyone."

And then the endless pit of rage surged back through his being.

 

[SmacksKiller]

Xander, the official Hulk starter.

 

[SotF]

Jon grinned as he realized that it had worked, Hulk was back in the fight and madder than ever.

The not-so-jolly green giant was faster than it looked after crushing an abandoned school bus after leaping from the pit.

A fist the size of a SUV slammed into the knee of the demon causing an unholy scream and sounds like shattering glass when the knee was forced to reverse its direction.

Blood, caustic and black fluid that hissed violently while burning into what it splashed upon, sprayed out as the hand grabbed the same leg while the other grabbed an arm and pulled ripping the limb from the joint at the thigh.

The Hulk was loose and the Hulk was mightily pissed off.

 

[SotF]

Connor moved, running for what he hoped would be a safe distance as the Hulk bodyslammed the demon through one of the towers, bringing the structure down on top of the combatant, collapsing as each deck pancaked into each other one by one.

Even that didn't slow the rampaging mass of emerald muscles as he rose from the debris pile with the devil held firm between each pair of arms.

"Hulk crush puny flame thing," it roared before squeezing tight amidst the blasphemous screams of the demon.

A gasp and the invading monster fell slack before being tossed aside to slam into yet another building before passing through to slam into one more.

Hulk moved as the structures toppled like dominoes, ripping a streetlight from its moorings and driving it base first into the demons chest and into the earth with the enough force to break the sound barrier in motion.

And the barbarian roared in triumph over the demon that they had fought.

Faith watched with a grim detachment as the group of heroes waited.

Hulked had reverted into human form, passing out in the rubble strewn battleground while the gunman checked for injuries.

Harry's dragon had vanished into a shower of starlight that shot skywards almost as a reverse shooting star, leaving the cloaked wizard to walk amidst the rubble using his magic to do some quick repairs to the buildings in danger of collapse.

The speedster was nearly conked out on a chunk of the road while the dark kid was cleaning some blades she couldn't recognize.

Superman was clearing wreckage out of the street.

The communications link with the tower had cut out during the fight but war restored rather quickly.

"How was your first time being a hero?" Cliff asked with a grin that was all but audible in his tone.

"Interesting," she answered, "What happened to you that we lost contact."

"Looked like you and your friends had it covered," the previous Rocketeer answered, "So I took the time to contact a few old friends to see about getting you some backup in case something went wrong."

"Who's coming?"

"I managed to reach four people, two of which have begun dispatching someone to come."

A pause.

"Greystoke and Sullivan are both retired, though they may eventually be convinced to show up and help and if Greystoke comes he'll bring Gridley," Cliff stated, "I did manage to get Walker to agree to send his great grandson and we have a Jones coming as well."

The old man seemed to relax, "I wasn't sure if I could reach the fourth since the third Henry Jones vanished, but he's out of the business and sent his son."

"How long until they get to town?"

"Jones'll be in in two days and a few more with Walkers trip from Bengalla."

 

[perfect_solider]

LXG of the new era?

 

[SotF]

An older man reached up and closed the blinds before him, blocking out his view of the city as the wizard teleported the rest of the group clear.

A hint of amusement crossed his features as he walked through the office to take a seat at an ancient looking desk with an almost concerned sigh.

"No," he whispered in annoyance, "This will not do."

He slowly reached out and filled a glass from a half empty bottle.

"How could the precogs miss something like this?" he seemed to ask himself before downing the drink in a single gulp before reaching to refill.

A pause as his hand touched the bottle before he tossed the glass aside to shatter on the wall and he snatched the bottle itself.

Holland Manners would have to rethink his plans for the new scenario.

WRH is involved....not good

Well, the heroes did just have a wide open super brawl in the middle of LA.

 

[yorath]

Hence my justifiable fear of Lawyers. should be interesting to see where this goes from here on out. though one wonders if the craven wolf'll alert Fumblemore as to what's up.

 

[perfect_solider]

I think you mean Nature Unleashed by Shadow Master

Yeah...something that pretty much has become a planet-wide "Wakening call" for billions about the presence of something beyond human notions......something that's likely to cause a cascade effect, what will crash the carefully built scenarios and plans of many entities on all sides, and likely will bring out the hidden war more into the open....

WR&H's plans for the near future are unacomplishable with Connor there before he could even be born, not to mention the revealing of the supernatural.

The Wizarding World has no way to cover up the existence of the supernatural since to do so would require tracking everyone down and making sure that every copy of the film is destroyed as well as deal with the destruction and those involved.

The Government is stuck dealing with a group they have few ideas about the allegiances of including at least one who is already protected (How/why will be shown later) and then you have the NID and Initiative.
