(fyi, for human names; Justicard's  real name is Dennis, and Silver Shadow's real name is Kirsten)

                                                                                                -

Justicard landed on the rooftop "Alright, I found her location."He said into the intercom that he had on him, All of a sudden a strong psychic current started to interfere with the radio and broke it, Justicard turned his head towards the source of the sudden psychic. He saw the figure standing near him and looking down at his face; a lady with 2 fully purple and glowing eyes, sharp teeth and silver hair with streaks of red and purple shining through. 4 blade-like arms stretched out from her back. She leaned in as Justicard began to grow fearful of the thing near him, she shushed him and struck him underneath the chin with her fist, knocking him out cold.

-

He came to in a dark area, his hands tied behind his back and shoulders tied with rope. "Hello?" he called out into the darkness, seeing the same 2 glowing eyes that he saw before he was knocked out... he saw the figure come into view and pick him up by the collar of his shirt...

"Don't worry, the ropes are temporary, I just brought you here to try and help me...." the figure said, her her demeanor was calm despite how she looked. "Who are you bringing me to?" Justicard responded back, clearly confused and a bit scared. "My overseer, a powerful villain called Psychometal...but this is technically where the problem comes in...." The mysterious villain spoke. "And you want me to help you, Why? we are opposites of each other." Justicard explained. "Listen, I just can't stand being around them, I just wanna feel free for once..." 

"Wait, Free?"Justicard questioned

"Yeah, I didn't even wanna be a villain in the first place, I'll explain more later..." the villain told him

Justicard Sighed and went along with the plan.

They approached a corridor with a sliding metal door, the villain entered a code into the keypad and was allowed entrance in. "So--Silver Shadow.. I heard that you finally captured Justicard....." Psychometal spoke. 

-"Yes sir, I brought him here." Silver shadow Replied

-"Good,  now I want you to kill him....." Psychometal exclaimed

-"WHAT?" Both Silver Shadow and Justicard exclaimed.

-"Yes, that would be the ultimate thrill, and justicard; if you take down my protege, you are her replacement" Psychometal Orated with a bit of a chuckle to his voice, untying Justicard from his restraints...

-"But I can't just kill him!" Silver Shadow shouted, horrified.

-"Oh, and why not, Weakling?" Psychometal growled, balling up one of his fists, before hitting Silver Shadow in the chin, striking her down for a bit. Justicard was shocked, seeing what the poor villainess had to go through with Psychometal.

Justicard spoke; "HEY YOU CAN'T JUST DO THAT TO HER!!!"

Psychometal turned his head, glaring at the hero before turning to face him.

-"And why NOT?" Psychometal said through gritted teeth, grabbing Justicard by the collar.

Psychometal turned over to Silver shadow before speaking, 

-"And this is what happens to those who don't obey MY orders, you FREAK!" Before Punching Justicard to the ground.

-"And since you wanna play hero then, fine..  fight me instead-- I never lose a fight..."  Psychometal boasted.

Justicard grabbed some Spade shurikens that he had, throwing them in Psychometal's direction, as the villain advanced towards justicard, quickly dodging the shurikens and hitting justicard in the gut. sending the hero to the floor.

Justicard coughed, groaning now from the pain and trying to hold back the nausea, before speaking;

-"Is that all you got?!" he asked, staggering up to his feet, before trying to swing at Psychometal

Psychometal grabbed ahold of Justicard's wrist, before raising a fist and hitting justicard in the nose and tossing him into a wall.

Justicard closed his eyes from the pain and the blood coming from a now fresh head wound, nausea and dizziness washing over him, feeling the cold metal gauntlet of Psychometal picking him up.

Justicard opened his eyes to face the maniacal glare of Psychometal.

-"So, do you give up yet?"Psychometal asked, grinning.

-"No....."Justicard Rasped, coughing a bit.

Psychometal grinned before Roaring out "THEN DIE!!!"

Psychometal raised his fist, pummeling, wounding, and bruising the poor defenseless hero-- before he grinned madly, now grasping Justicard by the neck with the steel gauntlet.

"Don't try to challenge me; I'll always come out on top" Psychometal cackled, his gauntlet now glowing with a blue light, sparks flying out--as Justicard screamed....

He was being Electrocuted....

In the meantime, Silver Shadow was thinking of all the great times she hung out with justicard; back when the 2 of them were just simple people enjoying life.

that was until the very night; it was a homecoming dance at school, the 2 were just enjoying the night and chatting; their friendship now taking hold-- but both having feelings for eachother. it wasn't until someone agitated Silver enough that her human form faltered into a true form of hers; everyone except Dennis saw her as a freak and thereforth  were appalled by her... Enraged, Silver made almost everyone disappear in a form of onyx black fire.. almost everyone except for a few; those few being Dennis and some students and teachers who never really saw her transform into that form.  Silver yelled, grief taking over her as everything faded back to now...

-

-

Justicard's screams echoed, Sending a burning rage back through Silver Shadow,  she didn't want the one person to ever see her as human to just be killed.

-"NO!!!!" Kristen yelled, using a psychic ability of hers to pull the 2 apart, sending Psychometal into a wall, with Justicard collapsing to the ground.....

-"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?" Psychometal yelled, pinned by debris and pipes twisted around him, restraining him


-"Doing what I should've done a long time ago, YOU SICK FREAK!" Silver Shadow hissed, balling up one hand into a fist, striking Psychometal. Silver continued to pummel the villain in a twisted way of payback for what he did..... Justicard was half-conscious and in tons of pain, the last thing he saw was Silver Shadow beating the tar out of Psychometal-- before everything around him faded to darkness... 

-

Soon Silver Shadow was done bloodying up her former ally turned enemy, She tore off the villain's gauntlet before grabbing Psychometal by the throat, and zapping him.... When she was done nearly killing her now ex-coworker, she growled out..

-"I'm done dealing with your bullshit, from now on I'm on the good side, so screw you!" before spitting at Psychometal.....

it felt good to lash out at the one abuser in her life that was weighing her down, but the heavy weight of someone who she cared about unconscious and leaned against a wall got to her... Tears formed in her eyes as she picked up Dennis from the ground, walking out of the now destroyed hideout and going to the heroes HQ to bring justicard back to them, and to try to join... Rain poured onto the streets as Kristen carried Dennis back to the HQ, Knocking on the door of the headquarters.....
