S.T.A.R. LABS

Suguru Pendragon was trying her best, there were many types of spirits surrounding (Y/N)'s finger in it's containment capsule

Suguru: Damn it... no matter what I try I can't figure out how to break this spell.

Inside the S.T.A.R. Labs base, while the heroes were off fighting, Suguru was attempting to unlock the secrets of the wards on (Y/N)'s finger. 

Suguru: I can see why the others have had no luck in getting any closer. Some of these wards have symbols I've never even seen before. Could Circe really do all this by herself?

As Suguru continued, her thoughts went to somewhere else.

Suguru: ..."The Ten Shadows of Hell". So... she's the chosen one? I have a feeling that she will be an extremely important person in the conflict to come.

Mahito: Hahahahaha!

Mahito runs around the labs dodging laser beams and spells by the second. Cyborg and Raven were hot in pursuit.

Cyborg: You just gonna keep running away?!

Mahito: Wow, you two look angry, honestly I think you should chill out a bit!!

Mahito suddenly stops and turns around, turning his hands into blades.

Raven: Azarath Metrion Zinthos!

A shield appears in front of Cyborg, stopping Mahito's blades from reaching him. Mahito jumps over it and runs towards Raven, hands glowing with energy ready to make contact with her. In response, she creates black tentacles and attempts to grab him.

Mahito: Ooo! Neat trick!

Mahito responds by creating octopus limbs to grab them instead.

Raven: ...?!

Mahito: But, I can do it better!

Cyborg shoots another beam at Mahito who backflips over it and bounces around the room.

Cyborg: Damn. This guy's slippery.

Raven: His cursed energy and abilities are strange. I don't think he's a sorcerer, but a Cursed Spirit.

Cyborg: For real? I thought those things were like animals or stereotypical ghosts.

Mahito: Boo! Thinking all cursed spirits are the same? Sounds like you need more sensitivity training!

Raven: What are you doing here? Are you here on behalf of the King?

Mahito: Ehhhh, yes and no. We're collecting the fingers for the king, sure, but we ain't working under him. Hehehe, at least for now.

Cyborg: What do you mean?

Mahito: Catch me and maybe I'll tell you!

Mahito jumps at them to which they send projectiles at him, but he turns himself into a rabbit and hops between them.
