Right then, don't panic but your mouth has just run away with itself yet again and you have just insulted a man who break yourself in two without any effort at all and all you can think about is the fact this suit has no little boys room... Aeronaut ducked to his left just as a massive glowing fist slammed down into the cement surface of the Warehouse yard. "Crossy, code 310".
Despite the gravity of the situation, Crossfire couldn't help but correct him "You mean code 301, 310 means you have been trapped in a cave in"
Aero couldn't believe what he was about to do, the villain that had just left a small crater in the floor when his punch missed his head is now about to become his next sparring partner. "I am so gonna claim hazard pay for this..." Aero muttered under his breath and then punched out at the Truck with a left hook, quickly followed by his right. He switched his suit from melee to ranged combat and let loose with a barrage of energy bolts. There, that ought to make him think twice... oh [censored]. Aero thought as the Truck got up from the floor rubbing his chin "You're gonna have to do better than that shrimp" Truck told the hero. "I've seen bigger than you at a kindergarten class" Truck then moved forward quickly and hit Aeronaut with a barrage of punches and knocked Aeronaut through the warehouse wall and into a pile of boxes. "Pah, heroes.." Truck muttered just as a red boot struck him squarely in the face.
"Well lookie here, I've found an abandoned truck" Fleetfoot quipped as she kicked him again, this time in the groin. "whoops, slipped. Don't worry though, what are the odds I actually hit anything?" she asked as she kicked him again, dodging with ease Trucks slow attacks. "You know, considering this is the fourth time I have kicked your [censored], I would have thought you would be prepared by now... I guess thats why you will never be anything more than a two-bit criminal Truck, no imagination..." Truck couldn't agree more, it had been four times and he would have to be the biggest fool on the Isles not to have learned from his mistakes. "Pah, you can't hurt me" he said, trying to goad Fleetfoot into attacking again, he needed an opening and she hasn't become too confident yet... Fleetfoot kicked again and again, each kick came too quickly to allow any kind of opening, Truck was glad that he took his medication before he came over to Paragon City, he could barely feel Fleetfoots kicks. Suddenly Fleetfoot ducked down low after trying an overhead kick, creating the opening he was looking for... Perfect.
Truck moved in with startling speed, lunging downward with the palm of his hand against fleetfoots head and shoved Fleetfoot onto the floor, he quickly followed this up by smashing both his fists down hard agains her prone body. "Heh heh, you're right, I should have been prepared" he said as he secured Fleetfoots hands together with handcuffs "Don't try to move, these cuffs are made by Crey and they are designed to dampen super powers, part of a contingency plan for when a Protector goes rogue I guess. Oh and I checked before I came to this god damned city and they work perfectly well on mutants so don't get your hopes up" with that, Truck moved toward the hole he made in the warehouse wall "Come on out Tin-man, I have something for you"
Great, an intelligent supervillain. Just what my night needs. Scanning the room for anything useful Aeronaut noticed that attached to the centre of the roof was what looked like a Winnebago camper van. Just what kind of paper warehouse have I stumbled into here? further investigation proved fruitless, to all appearances this warehouse houses only a great big van attached to the roof and three piles of crates and if the other piles dotted around are full of paper like the one the Truck launched him into they will be limited use. Well I could always write him a letter of complaint I suppose. Great, all this has done is provide this guy a wider open area to pound at me in. "Oi slim, what makes you think I want to go out there with you?, if you are scared why not just give up right now" oh my God what am I doing? "What, you think you're gonna get hit by something large and heavy if you come in here?" D'oh. why the hell didn't I think of that. "Come on in chicken, let's finish this"
Truck grinned, this guy is an idiot. "Whatever you say pal, I need to work off my dinner anyway" he made the hole in the wall Aeronaut had made earlier large enough for himself to enter the building and walked up to Aeronaut, his eight foot tall frame easily dwarfing the Hero's rather respectable six. "Right then shrimp, lets do this"
Marvelling at the fact Truck had walked up to him as if it were a boxing match and not a fight for thier lives, Aeronaut lost no time in small talk but instead he released a full charge of energy against the villain at short range and quickly followed through with a punch, ducking quickly to his right to avoid Trucks attack. I don't think I even fazed him, my Christ. Aero used the momentum he gained from his dodge to jump up above the truck whilst he was off balance and smashed down hard with both his fists and then brought his fists down again for good measure. The Truck, knocked to the floor by the first attack was sent spinning by the second and he found it hard to concentrate "Good one Tin-man, but I bet you wasn't expecting this" and with that Truck jumped up in the air and grabbed hold to the underbelly of the camper van, his extra weight causing the ceiling mounts to buckle. How much does this guy weigh? Aeronaut wondered as the ceiling came down on him.
Having let go of the van as soon as he heard the restraints give way the Truck was able to roll out of the way and get behind a pile of crates before a large section of the ceiling and the Winnebago smashed into the centre of the warehouse where he and his opponent stood not thirty seconds before. "Well that takes care of that" he said to no one in particular "Time to get me a piece of limey meat"
"Here, catch" Aeronaut shouted as he dropped an incendiary grenade onto the pile of paper filled crates from his vantage point thirty foot above the giant villain. I really wish I would remember what I keep in my belt. Aeronaut threw another after the first and then let loose with another volley of energy blasts before cutting off his engines in order to land directly behind Truck. "You know, I hate it when people try to crush me under a couple of tonnes of metal and concrete" Aero said as he knocked the villain forward into the flames "It really puts me in a bad mood and believe me when I say I wasn't in the best of moods to begin with" looking up, Aero saw the part of the ceiling directly above them was still intact. Good. Aeronaut attacked the ceiling with everything he had, causing it to come falling down on the prone giant as he himself dodged the debris easily.
Seeing no movement within the debris, Aeronaut decided to check in with Crossfire "Got him. He is currently buried beneath the warehouse ceiling"
"What did you say? You do remember the no collateral damage talk last week don't you?" came the reply
"Don't even start with me Cross, you would not believe what this guy threw at me"
Aeronaut moved back to the hole in the wall he had made earlier when he was knocked inside the building and noticed a female hero dressed in red lying prone on the floor.
"You ok over there?" Aero asked
"Sod off" came the reply "Get me out of these ruddy cuffs and I will show you how ok I am"
This is exactly why I don't want another relationship Aero thought to himself as he walked over to the other Hero you are always in the wrong no matter what you do, I could come home from work early one day to find my girlfriend in bed with three men and a woman and yet I would be in the wrong for not telling her when I would be back home. "You know, I am not the man who put these cuffs on you, you could show a little respect"
"I know you ain't, he is a bloody great big lummox who wouldn't know one end of a car from the other. You are just the muppet who let him get away" Fleetfoot nodded towards the departing villain as she spoke.
Aeronaut turned to see what she was motioning at "Great, another job well done". he said and shot at the centre of the handcuffs with his least powerful blast.
"What the hell do you think you are doing?" Fleetfoot demanded
"Like I have a key" Aero snapped back and shot the handcuffs again, this time he split the chain in two "There, nothing to it"
"Well come on then, if we dash we can catch him before he leaves for the Rogue Isles" the female hero said as she started to run after Truck.
"My names Aeronaut by the way"
"Charmed, I'm Fleetfoot. Hurry up or we'll lose him"
No THIS is why I don't want a relationship again Aero grumbled to himself as he took off in pursuit.
More to follow at some point...
