[QUOTE="GreenKarl, post: 7490132, member: 6801242"] Princess Starlight dosed her “brightness” and dropped down closer to ground, the pain from the last blast catching her off guard. The Shadow then caught the flying rock fire dude with his taser causing the man to grunt out loud in pain. Kitsune unleashed her multiple-fire lasers but they bounced harmlessly off the man’s lava-like skin! Silver Streak blasted the last guard who exploded in sparks but then he sensed more movement in the jungle. Rumble was able to gauge the lava-man perfectly with his sense of combat and was confident that he had a measure of the man. The lava man shouted out in heavily accented English “Despoilers of the great and holy Apocalypse!

Suddenly a dozen scientifically dressed individuals burst from the jungle. They make no real noise above their running, no cries of anger or surprise.
