Nova looked over at the team that had challenged her, and her faint feelings of joy withered in an instant. It was K-9 and her team, Shockwave, Sparkman, and Obsidian. She could control dogs, had superspeed, and super-hearing, and just so happened to be the leader of the renegade team the council always sent to inspect their home.

Every time that they came they tore apart their home, and on one occasion Shockwave had used her sonic manipulation to incapacitate Evie. After they left Nova did her best to help clean up but half of the things that they broke were beyond repair. at their last visit they confiscated Nova's parent's wedding bands, because years before they had been made by Nova's father. they had no magical or unordinary properties, they simply took them because they could.

Needless to say Nova extremely disliked that team, and was almost glad that they had challenged her. When she won she would be acceped into the renegades, and into a well known patrol team like Frostbites too!

"On what grounds do you challenge her," Blacklight asked K-9, who was glaring at Nova like she was a blood sucking insect on her forearm.

" I challenge her on several grounds. One, She is a blood relative of Ace Anarchy, and as such she cannot be trusted. Two there is no way to verify her claim without a demonstration that none of us are willing to provide. Three her claim to designing her own weaponry goes against the rules provided to her family, and finally I question Frostbites jugement in her choice. this last bit was presented with  a look of disbileif mixed with disgust towards Frostbite and her team.

"I accept the challenge, I'll fight Obsidian." Nova said, steeling herself for the coming fight. 

Nova had never seen Obsidian use his powers, but every time K-9 and her team stopped by, all the other members of the team were nervous around him. Going against him would make them respect her. 

Obsidian grimaced as he stood up, possibly not enjoying the prospect of fighting a prodigy whose family his team had harassed. Relentlessly. For several years. Nova hoped these thoughts were flashingthrough his mind, and hat he just didn't want to be bothered with fighting her.

" Furthermore," Nova said with an innocent smile," I have wanted to join the Renegades since they saved my family as a child, so thats how you know you can trust me, also the challenge is the demonstration, obviously, and the agreement with my family is that we won't make any weaponry, and as I stated, I only design my wepons and tools. After I join the Renegades, and i will join the rengades, with the councils permission I will make the weapons and tools of my designs, and distribute them to the Renegades imediately."

Nova looked to Obsidian, prepared herself for the attack, and said, "Let's fight."
