Spectacular World

Yellow Kobold was never considered to be a scary villain.

He was just a bad guy that happened to constantly return. Even when he died, it wouldn't be too long before some new guy took up the mantle and carried on the mission of making the hero, Golden Weaver, suffer.

This Yellow Kobold seemed different. He had the same set of powers; all Yellow Kobolds had the same powers for some reason, almost like a passing of the torch, but this Yellow Kobold had a look in his eyes. One that spelled trouble.

"Boom."

That was all the villain said, but it was enough. Cinder felt her eyes sting as a bright flash appeared in front of her and a wave of force rammed into her from all sides. Her suit let out a loud hiss as the blast rammed into them, and the tower she had been standing on exploded, raining down shards of hot stone. She wasn't alone in her falling either. Next to her, Black Weaver tumbled down hard.

The older hero managed to shake off the force of the blast and fired out a golden web, which latched onto part of the building that wasn't destroyed. It pulled him back, allowing him to stop his fall.

She was just about to copy him and do the same but stopped at the last second when she noticed all the people that were down below. The bank at the corner of the street had been where the attack first started. A heavy fire was pouring out of it and spilling out onto the road, which was covered in some kind of flammable substance. Dozens of people were trapped down below, boxed in from the flame and Battery's downed Giant. The rubble from the tumbling building was also raining down on the people below.

Black Weaver tried to stop as much as he could, but he was only able to web up a few large blocks of stone and sever a couple more with his other arm.

Cinder took a deep breath and shifted her focus from catching herself to focusing on the debris instead. "Shift!"

"Already on it!" Kevin announced.

She flung her arms down, and dozens of red tendrils blasted out, all moving like whips. They sliced into the stone, cutting them down to smaller sizes, or simply wrapped around the bigger ones, lifting them up. When she finally came crashing down, she landed in the crowd of people, eight stone boulders suspended behind her that had come from the destroyed building behind her. The tendrils twitched and began to slam the debris down, forming into a makeshift ramp that went directly over the cracked Giant, allowing many of the people to run out of the danger and get to a safe location.

"Thank you!" Someone managed as they passed her.

Black Weaver remained stuck to the wall, watching her for a moment before he slowly looked back up to where Yellow Kobold was. The villain's grin had somehow grown even larger, and he was standing on his board with his arms crossed.

The board in question was a thick silver-looking thing that sort of resembled a surfboard. Yellow Kobold was a villain who had been blessed with several powers, from mild super strength and speed to a few Mental-based ones as well that allowed him to make his flying board and battle suit. Despite how simple and goofy his costume looked, it was actually built with dozens of Super tech in it that amplified him further beyond his power and allowed his voice to come out even louder than it normally would. Unlike Golden Weaver, Yellow Kobold didn't need to worry about his suits running out of battery either since he was the one who built them, so they remained fully charged just by staying near him.

"It's been a while, Golden Weaver! I like the new costume!" Yellow Kobold shouted. His voice came out amplified and shattered dozens of windows.

Black Weaver didn't even bother to come up with some witty response. He was still on a time limit; the more he used his tech, the quicker it would die, so he went all out on the attack right away. Black Weaver fired a golden thread onto the underside of Yellow Kobold's board, and it snapped taut, pulling the hero up toward the villain. He slapped his other arm through the air, the razor wire cutting out, but Yellow Kobold was faster and managed to use his power to block it.
