Goddess
It was a peaceful day in Corona city. The citizens were going to their jobs. Kids were in school. Everything was normal. But things at its bank were about to get very crazy.
Inside the bank the atmosphere was like any other day. There was a line of people waiting to be serviced by the teller. The tellers worked diligently to service all their needs with a smile. A pleasant young man just withdrew and handed a woman her money before wishing her a nice day and calling for the next person in line.
The next person to come up to his counter was a young woman. She was tall and wearing sunglasses with long black hair. She wore a long grey trench coat, black pants, and black high heeled boots. He gave her a warm smile that she gave back.
"Hello ma'am. How can I help you today?" he asked politely.
"Ah yes. I was hoping," she paused to take off her sunglasses. The man looked into her eyes and gasped. Where there should have been white, there was yellow. And her corneas were a crimson color. The man gulped nervously. She obviously wasn't human.
"That you could give me all the money you have," she said sweetly. The teller reeled back and hit the panic button. The woman sighed as people suddenly rushed into the bank in trench coats and armed with guns.
"Everybody get down!" one of her followers yelled. The security guard was about to intervene when suddenly the woman was in front of him. Her skin had faded to a pale grey and her black hair was crackling like fire. She grabbed the man by the throat, lifted him off the ground effortlessly, and smiled.
"Just stay down officer, okay?" she said with a smile. The guard drew his gun and pointed it at her face. He pulled the trigger, and to his amazement the bullet bounced off of her. She shook her head and tsked him. Then she began to squeeze, intent on choking the life out of him.
Her followers began taking valuables off the people. To attempt a robbery so blatantly was crazy. But as long as they had their goddess, they were unstoppable.
One of them was demanding a teller open the vault when in a golden flash he was gone. The woman holding the guard furrowed her brows. Then in a cry one of her men was down. She looked to see what looked like an arrow coming out of him, the head sticking to him as he spasmed from an electrical current going through his body.
Then another man lost his gun as an arrow pierced through the barrel. Then another golden flash appeared and another man was gone. The woman smiled wickedly and dropped the near suffocated guard. Something much more interesting had just arrived.
"So, our heroes have shown up. Why don't you come out Archer and Limelight?" she called out. "I assure you, none of my men will hurt the civilians," she called out. Her followers looked at her in shock. She looked at them and smiled. "If one of you hurts the civilians…I'll kill you all," she said darkly. They all paled and nodded in understanding.
"Who are you then?" everyone looked up to see a familiar cloaked figure on the second floor. One of the heroes of Corona City. Archer.
"I am the daughter of Chaos and Death. I am Entropy," the woman replied. Archer raised an eyebrow as she descended the stairs. She stood in front of the group.
"You're the Sons of Hades?" Archer inquired.
"Indeed. I'm here to pave the way for the coming of my father," the woman informed.
"Sounds like you're crazy to me," came a voice from above. Entropy smiled as the person she really wanted to see just arrived. Descending from the ceiling was Limelight. The other defender of Corona City and Archer's partner.
Her long blond hair glowed with power as she touched down.
"Ah, so you're Limelight?" Entropy said as she looked her up and down. "I was hoping you'd show up. Your power is quite impressive. I was hoping to face you."
"You did this just to get my attention. So you could fight me?" Limelight asked.
"Oh yes. I think beating you would make for an excellent feat. One of legendary proportions. So, shall we?" Entropy asked.
Limelight opened her mouth to speak when in a black blur, Entropy was in front of her. She had no time to react as Entropy backhanded her. With astounding force. She went flying out of the glass windows of the building at amazing speed.
Archer gaped in shock. She'd never seen anyone swat her partner away like she were a fly. But she overcame it to turn her attention to the Sons still present. She drew an arrow as she prepared to engage them.
Limelight went flying down the streets outside of the bank. She righted herself before planting her feet into the ground and sliding to a stop. She rubbed at her aching jaw in amazement. She'd actually felt that.
She looked up and gasped as Entropy was in front of her again. Entropy smiled as she swung her fist upward and caught her in the chin. Limelight went flying back before crashing into a building. She dented the side of the building, cracking the stone work. She groaned and pulled herself out of her imprint when she was suddenly slammed back into it.
She opened her eyes to see Entropy grabbing her by the throat. Entropy hovered hundreds of feet of the ground and she held the heroine against the wall. Smiling viciously. "You are certainly powerful Limelight. But you are just a mortal. While I am the child of gods," she muttered before throwing her to the ground.
Her impacted created a crater. She rolled over onto her back just as a shadow appeared over her. She gasped as she saw Entropy lifting a gas tanker over her head. Then she brought it down, crushing her beeath it.
Entropy smiled before she gathered black fire into her hand. She threw it at the truck, igniting the gas and making it go up in a huge explosion. She watched as the flames roared and burned before smiling victoriously.
"Too easy. I thought she'd be more of a challenge," Entropy muttered with a shrug. With a smile she made her way back to the bank to kill Archer.
Archer just finished subduing the last of the Sons. She asked the citizens if they were ok. Then she asked the tellers. She looked outside to see police already pulling up and smiled. But then it faded when she noticed Entropy walking down the street and towards he police. They took notice of her and order her to stop.
She didn't listen. Black fire suddenly shout of from her, it made its way to the police cars before engulfing them in flames. The policemen shout before leaping away as sure enough, they exploded. Seeing that she was not human they opened fire on her. And it proved useless as their bullets bounced off of her skin. She sighed as she picked up the remains of a car and attempted to squash the policemen under it.
But she was forced to throw the car aside before whirling around to catch a flaming blue arrow. She looked at it and smirked. "Wow, that's hot," she said as the flames were sucked into her hair. She looked to see Archer, with bow in hand. "Now it's your turn."
In a blur she was before Archer. She cocked back her fist to throw a punch, Archer drew Inferno and swung it at her. But Entropy caught the swing by the blade with her bare hand. She didn't give any indication that she felt any pain from Inferno's heat. She ripped it from Archer's grip and threw it aside.
She grabbed Archer by the throat and lifted her up. Archer gasped and glared at her and she attempted to break her inhuman grip. Entropy examined her. She cocked her head to the side before realization seemed to flash across her face.
"Oh, my apologies Your Majesty," she said throwing Archer to the floor. She bowed mockingly. Archer coughed a she brought her hands up to her throat. "I've heard of you. I thought you were a myth. Why you chose this weak human form is beyond me. But no matter. I'll just have to kill you," Entropy said evenly.
She stepped in front of Archer. She grabbed her by the head and pulled her back to expose her chest. She raised her arm up, intent on punching a hole through her heart. Archer was wide eyed and helpless. With an evil smile she drove her arm forward.
But it was stopped. Out of nowhere a hand grabbed her wrist. She looked over to see and caught glimpse of gold before she was punched in the face. She went flying, careening into parked cars before crashed through the wall of a building.
Archer looked up to see her partner. Hair and eyes aglow. And looking very angry. She kept her gaze on the hole where her opponent had disappeared while wrapping her hair around Archer's throat. Archer breathed easier as she felt her throat being healed.
But she figured this wasn't over. And sure enough, Entropy emerged from the hole in the wall. A snarl on her face as she glared daggers at Limelight.
This was FAR from over.
