Come to the Megadale's Charles Becket Local Supermarket for anything you-"

The voice from the shop's wall-bound loudspeaker was interrupted as the laser beam hit it, blasting it to pieces. Down at the ground, SheZow was fighting the group of bandits.

"Hey, that's damaging of public property! It's going in your upcoming sentence" SheZow said sarcastically as she approached the one who accidentally shot the loudspeaker. He tried to engage the fight, but the heroine took him down in mere seconds - one quick move made him drop the gun, and then she threw him over herself. The bandit hit the stage filled with toilet paper and it immediately fell from it on him. Turned out that a shop's employee was hiding behind it, they glanced scaredly at the bandit, then at Zow, and then ran away screaming.

"Oops... I'm sorry!" the heroine shouted them and then continued the fight.

People in the shop were in panic, so they were just running around, unable to actually move out the danger zone. That was worrying a lot, but SheZow couldn't leave the bandits unoccupied, or else they could put civilians in more danger.

"Ugh, where is Maz when I need him so much..." SheZow grumbled quietly. Suddenly, a voice came from the side.

"Fear not, citizens! Heroes are here to save the day! The powerful heroine SheZow and her loyal friend, me! The Shaverine!" boy jumped down the shelf and struck a pose. He was wearing sleeveless yellow and dark blue upper suit with weird helmet, that's eyeholes were input with orange lenses. Lower side was more modest - simple jeans and brown high boots. On his hands Maz wore dark blue gauntlets. Funnily enough, they were fingerless for some reason. On the outer palms plates were taped, and on these plates shavers were bolted, two on each hand. Maz flexed his hands as the shavers buzzed.

People that were close around got confused for a moment. Bandits laughed, but that was good as SheZow quickly pounced at them, taking more of them down.

"Good timing, my friend!" she exclaimed. Her voice was perfectly girly, no sign of faking - all thanks to the voice altering device under her suit's collar, given to her by a guest from another dimension. "Now please, take care of the people while I deal with this herd of idiots" she chuckled as some bandits let out a furious "Hey!" Maz, however, was not amused at all.

"That's unfair!" he exclaimed. "Why are you always the one to have fun and kick butt, while I just move around and helping people? This can be done by everybody else, like..." he looked around and saw a man sneaking nearby "Like him!" the boy dashed to the sneaking man and caught him by sleeve, which caused the man to shake. "Okay, pal, me and my hero freundin are here to help. While we're keeping the bandits busy, lead the people away, got it?" the man, who, by the way, also was the shop's employee, and the badge on his shirt said "Daxton", stopped shaking and nodded and then rushed to the nearest people.

"Alright, ladies and gentlemen, let's stop panicking and leave this place..." he spoke.

"See?" Maz said. "I can be a fighter too!"

"Maz, I understand you, but don't forget one thing" SheZow said after finishing with another bandit, and no more left nearby, others were somewhere at the other side of the shop. "I am the one with superpowers, thus I can risk myself easily. You, on the other hand, are a simple boy in a handmade superhero suit. You shouldn't risk so much... Come on, go and help Daxton, I will go deal with the others!" SheZow left to the other part of the shop, while Maz, frowning, went to follow the guy he involuntarily made to help him...
