The zombie, as Granite puts it, shambles toward him. Granite holds his position and then clamps down on the zombie's shoulders with incredible strength. The zombie feebly attempts to bite his arm, but his teeth are unable to penetrate Granite's stony flesh.

Jorgi runs down the stairs and through the lobby. He clearly hears Ms. Larson down in the basement yell at someone to get away from her. He vaults over the railing and lands halfway down the stairs to the basement.
In the gloomy basement hallway, Jorgi sees the plumber slowly advancing upon Ms. Larson. She appears to have tripped over a toolbox in her haste to get away from him.
Jorgi can tell that there is something not right with the plumber. The way he is walking is awkward at best. And his eyes...are they glowing?

"Good evening, Dr. Faturius," Bartholomew says, tipping his hat in thanks. "Just the sewers, sir. I'd suggest you try to avoid flushing or running too much water. Things seem to be backing up a bit right now."
Steven adds the tidbit to his growing sense of concern and hurries up to his room. He pulls out his briefcase and decides to try using his innate powers to will his suit onto himself. With a faint pop, he finds that his costume has replaced his street clothes. Out of curiosity, he opens the briefcase and finds his street clothes inside, neatly folded.
He turns intangible and flies through the ductwork of the building, up and out through the roof where he could go unseen.

A truck from a local news station, four police cars, and two city utility vehicles crowd the street in front of the new Nike superstore. Over a hundred interested passersby are trying to get a view, but ever since the gun was discharged they are keeping a respectable distance.
Andrew has to pull his car over about two hundred feet from the collection of vehicles. Lawrence hops out and starts to hurry over. Andrew follows a short distance behind.
As he gets closer, Lawrence can see that the cops have managed to restrain the utility worker with several pairs of handcuffs binding his arms and ankles. In spite of this, and the bullet through the head, the utility worker is still struggling mightily to get free. The cops are split between trying to keep the news crew and civilians back and watching over their captive.
Lawrence happens to catch a glimpse of movement overhead and notes the flying arrival of Professor Fate in all his costumed glory.

Steven Faturius said:He watched for a moment or two as Maggie pulled away, then headed into the Centurion, tipping the doorman on the way in - as was his custom.
"Bartholomew, how are you tonight? Anything exciting?" Steven asked in passing.
"Good evening, Dr. Faturius," Bartholomew says, tipping his hat in thanks. "Just the sewers, sir. I'd suggest you try to avoid flushing or running too much water. Things seem to be backing up a bit right now."
