Cinder And The Sub Enforcers

Her entrance was pretty cool. At least Cinder thought so. In that moment, though, she felt a little awkward and childish as everyone, both hero and villain, stared at her dumbfounded.

"Who is she?" BB asked slightly amused as she floated above Black Skunk. "Are they a hero?"

"I think she was one of the people that fought Green Wolf." Wasp Nest noted. The boy was able to share the memories of his bugs when he needed to, and he recalled that when they found Green Wolf for the first time, a girl and a man had been there to fight the villain. "It looks like she got a new costume now, though."

Paragon frowned from under her mask, feeling a weird twitch in her chest. The new hero's voice sounded strangely familiar. "How did she even get here?"

"I have enhanced hearing, and I was nearby when I heard a big blast!" Cinder explained casually before she turned and saw who she was talking to. As soon as she saw Paragon, her attitude suddenly changed, and she simply clicked her tongue. "Oh. It's you."

"What's with that tone?"

"I think what Paragon meant was how did you get to us?" Money Tree shouted. "We're underground and sort of in the middle of something!"

Cinder lazily shrugged her shoulders and pointed up toward the roof. They all followed her finger and stared at the large gaping hole that went all the way up to the city above. "I didn't have time to figure this maze out, so I punched my way down. I made sure to do it in a spot that wouldn't affect the city. Luckily, you guys were over a spot of the city that isn't used any more, and the entire block had been blocked off, so I didn't have to worry about holding back or damaging anything."

"She punched her way down?" Oxide asked in disbelief.

"Makes sense to me." Poseidon nodded. "That's what I would do."

"Most people don't have stupid levels of strength like you or that girl." Paragon said flatly.

"I think you're all forgetting something important!" In an instant, Red Raptor appeared behind Cinder and swung out with his tail. "We're still in the middle of a fight!"

She felt a wave of pain unlike anything she had felt before, and in an instant she was launched off of her feet and smashed directly through a stone wall. She went through it and landed in another tunnel of the sewer, falling into the water below.

"This is a fight to the death!" Red Raptor cackled. "Children like you shouldn't be here!"

"He's right!" Red Scorpion launched her tail toward Poseidon. The hero barely had time to block it with another wave of her water as the villain jumped at her and struck out with a fist, ramming it into Poseidon's gut and shoving the Lord back. "Now that Red Raptor is here, we'll win for sure!"

Black Skunk jumped into the air and caught BB off guard. The hero was still in her small form, so all the villain did was simply clap her hands together around the tiny hero in an effort to crush her. BB rapidly expanded themselves back to their full height, but Black Skunk didn't miss a beat and wrapped her arms around BB's waist. The woman turned and tossed BB, smashing the hero into a wall hard enough to crack it.

Money Tree created another sword of cash and swung it at Black Skunk, letting out a yell of rage, but the villain tore off one of her bombs and tossed it at him. He was forced to catch the bomb with his coins and cash to stop it from exploding, and that meant he was wide open to Black Skunk's punch. Money Tree took the strike but stumbled back, giving the villain enough time to turn and ram her foot down onto BB's head as hard as she could.

BB screamed out as blood began to drip down her face. Paragon gritted her teeth and went to send Destiny out, but Red Raptor spat out a glob of acid toward her bird, stopping it from flying and forcing it to land back on her shoulder.
