Jinx slowly got out of bed and looked around. Everything was still in place. Last night had been a wake up call to her. Even thieves could be robbed. She quickly arose and began hiding her loot; the H.I.V.E. members would be back by now, and room inspection was the next day. She didn't feel like hiving Blood find out about her activities.
Knock, Knock, "Jinx?"
Mammoth. She half-wanted to leave the door locked but the other half of her wanted her to invite him in and spill everything. After all, he was her closest friend at the academy. Deciding for the friendlier option, partly because the door wouldn't keep Mammoth out anyway, and opened the door to welcome him in. "Hey, there big guy? What's up?" She faked a cough, "I'm still sick, by the way." Another fake cough, "Sorry."
Mammoth smirked, "How long till you are better?"
Jinx shrugged, "Hopefully soon. Now was the last mission?"
"Wouldn't you like to know?"
"I would, actually." SHe plopped down on her bed and he joined with with a sigh, "Let's just say it went pretty well."
"Mmm how well?"
"Well Raven was not there, for one thing. Starfire was captured. Beast Boy was sick, probably caught whatever you have. Only Robin was 'in the game' so to speak. And even then, he was blinded by his hatred os Slade."
"So you guys won?" Jinx was nearly incredulous.
"Well…" Mammoth started, "I wouldn't say that…"
"Huh?" Jinx's nose scrunched up, "what the heck do mean?"
"We were apparently a rescue team for a group of hopefuls that had been captured by Titans East. Most of the kids were run-a-ways and they were going to be turned over to the authorities tanned sent home."
Jinx frowned, "It's not like Blood to… save freshmen."
"No, it's not. But I think there is something special about them. Maybe some of them are super-powerful or something?" it was more of a statement than a question."
"So aside from the questionable-victory of your last mission, what else was so important that Blood had to call out his big gun?" she lightly punched his shoulder, or at least to him it was light. To her, it was over half her power. "Damn, you are strong."
Mammoth chuckled and stood. "Well, I've signed up for a sort of Big Brother program." He walked over, unconsciously to one of her hidden storage bins.
"Oh yeah?" Jinx fidgeted him her seat. Mammoth was a friend but she was unsure of trusting him with secret. "Did you sign on on purpose or was it forced by our Big Brother?" she teased.
"Well… it was more suggested than forced… but my, er, sidekick, as the program refers to them, is a pretty cool dude. Was one of the kids we actually saved."
"So you gotta keep watch over this snot-nosed kid for how long?"
"Well, he isn't Gizmo, so I think it is safe to say his nose is snot-free. And the program is only for the semester. If you want to keep being their mentor, then you fill out a request form and send it to-
Jinx held up her hand, "Shut up, you sound fricken boring right now?"
"You're right." Mammoth leaned against the wall. "How about telling me about what you did while we were gone?" He arched an eyebrow.
"Nothing really" She said through a cough, "I just, ya know, slept and ate." She patted her stomach, "I'm secretly a fatty."
"Oh really?" Again Mammoth gave a smirk, then in one swift movement, he ripped oven her secret vault. Gems and money poured out on the floor and Mammoth was not the least bit surprised. "How's about sharing the secret, or will you claim you're a somnambulic kleptomaniac."
"…What?"
"A sleep-walking thief." Mammoth simplified his accusation.
"Oh, fine." She threw him a thick emerald. "Take it, I was gonna give it to ya anyway."
Mammoth tossed it back n the pile. "Tell me."
Jinx sat down and told him the events of the previous night, including Red-X.
Red-X left the employer's office amused. As much she hated working for the man, he had to admit that he paid well. "Still, hope he doesn't notice it's a fake." But the more he watched as Mr. Rhoads admired the sun-shaped gem, the less Red-X feared the man would notice. "He only wants it for decoration." Red-X said to himself as he teleported to his motorcycle, "I have a feeling that it actually contains powers untapped."
He saddled over the cycle's seat and leaned into the controls. His bike roared to life. The bike had been one of his greatest accomplishments. He had stoled Robin's first bike right from under Robin's nose. Well, somewhat. When he stole it, it had been discarded after an accident and what better way to further his own goals than to employ the uses of a superbike? "With a roar, the X-Cycle zoomed down the street to Red-X's hidden base-of-operations.
"That's pretty impressive!" That was not what she had expected Mammoth's response to be. She expected chiding, teasing, and above all: a never-ending stream of I-told-you-so's.
"Wha-what?"
"I said, 'that's pretty impressive'," Mammoth replied again, "Going solo! Do you know how cool that makes you?" Mammoth nearly exploded.
"No..."
"It's like you are a major class villain now! You did something independent of H.I.V.E.!"
Jinx was annoyed. As if she couldn't have done something by herself already? "What is that supposed to mean?" her hands quickly took their place on her hips as a frown formulated on her brow.
Mammoth, seeing his mistake, backpedalled and held up his hands to his chest in defense, "Now I didn't mean you couldn't, but..."
"Then what did you mean?" She feigned a step forward and Mammoth tripped over the bed.
"I just meant that, you know, it's cool that you figured out how to get out and everything." It was obvious the burly teen was at a loss for words. Jinx found it cute.
Witha mischievous smile, she continued her mock anger, "No, I don't know. Care to explain it to me?"
Mammoth's mouth just hung open, Damn."To be honest, I don't know how to explain it."
"Good, finally the truth comes out." Jinx threw her hands in the air in fake frustration.
The two sat together in a comfortable silence. Then Jinx spoke. "So... this weekend is the Death Ball. Going with anyone?"
Mammoth's heart quickened, "Uh, no...heh. You?"
She smiled coyly, "I am now." She winked and then she whispered her weekend plans into Mammoth's ear.
Blackfire overlooked Jump City from her perch at the harbor. The Teen Titans had been out of town chasing after some stupid school of bees or something. This had given her enough time to recuperate from her beat down the few days prior. The weekend was fast approaching and she had something special in mind. She flew off to her alcove in a cliff-side cave.
"Well, sister dear," She addressed the picture of Starfire taped to the cave wall, "You and your friends may have the power in numbers, but soon," She started for her newly stole emery wheel. "I will be not only stronger, but more brutal." She picked up a sharp object and began to sharpen it on the tool.
-Weekend-
"Where are you?" Jinx hissed into her phone. Mammoth was late. They wouldn't be able to sneak out of the ball if he was late.
"I'm on my way just have to-Holy Sheettt!" Mammoth's garbled shriek stabbed into Jinx's ear. "What the hell was that for?" she screamed back into the phone.
"I'm here." Mammoth said from behind her. He sounded out of breath.
Jinx turned fast, "How the heck?" Then she noticed a younger kid standing next to her friend. "Um, who's that?" she asked pointedly.
"This is my sidekick; Kyd Wykkyd." Mammoth beamed with pride. "I just found out he's a teleporter."
"A teleporter, huh?" She eyed him over. He couldn't have been more than fifteen. His pale blue skin stood out from his dark purple cloak and cowl. His red eyes stabbed into hers, unblinking. "So why is he here?"
"I told you," Mammoth started, "I have to take the kid everywhere I go nearly. It's part of the program!"
Jinx rolled her eyes, "Why the heck did you sign of for it in the first place?"
"I needed the money." Mammoth replied simply.
Another eye-roll. "So what makes you think I'm takin' mini Batman over there with me for the nightly patrol?"
"Because if he doesn't go, I can't go. He's supposed to learn first-hand from me."
"Look, I'm not taking Kyd Whatever anywhere. I don't know him at all, and neither do you! So unless he can't talk-"
"Ummmmm." Mammoth looked away, obviously embarrassed.
Huh? Jinx thought, did I hit a nerve? She looked at the young Gothic teen and saw his first sign of emotion: anger. "He's a mute, isn't he?"
Mammoth managed a nod and placed a hand on Kyd's shoulder to support him. "Yeah, he can't talk."
Damn. My bad. Jinx half-smiled at Kyd and apologized. Great... now I have to take him with me. Stupid guilt trip. She smiled through her pain and submitted that he come with her.
Mammoth smiled wide and slapped Kyd's back heartily, "Oh boy! How about it Kyd?"
The younger teen visibly stumbled forward due to Mammoth's heavy hand, but the smile on his silent face was unmistakeable: he wanted to go.
"Fine. Let's get this over with."
Tonight was the night. Blackfire stood slowly from her Lotus position and began arming herself. For too long she had been dependent on her powers and natural strength in fights. Now that even her sister would not hold back, she could no longer use her powers for her advantage. After the final piece of armor was on her, she looked at herself in the full-length mirror. Gone were the silver wrappings and miniskirt.
Her waist and legs were now covered by a short qipao that had been split up to the hip joint on both sides. Her customary shirt was still in order as was her neckpiece; signifying the royalty that had been unfairly ripped from her at birth. Her regal forearm bracers no longer adorned her hand and identified her as royalty, but now here bracers were perverted and changed into more brutal gauntlets of a spurned warrior.
On her shoulders were rounded shoulder pads, under her left shoulder pad; a tattoo. The tattoo signified her as an Exile of Tameran. But not just any exile; an exile that had been dealt unfairly. Anyone who knew about Tameranian culture would see it and recognize it as the mark of one who had been dealt an unfair hand from Tameran and refused to accept the apology given. Though her family had not yet apologized formally, she would make them.
"Tonight's the night." She inhaled deeply and took to the air. As she flew, she ties part of her hair up in a pony tail and let it rest on the hair that had not been tied up. Sh ewasn't sure what she was about to do, but she knew one thing: She wasn't out for the money or any material thing. She was out for blood. To show the returned Titans that she will always be their most dangerous enemy.
Witha quick veer to the left, she started her descent to the nearest bank. She may have not been in it for the money, but hold-ups were a sure-fire way to get the Titan's attention.
The large, muscular teen made his way down a lightly crowded street. No one paid him any mind. He entered a bank and took a deep breath. He exhaled as he walked casually up to the desk.
"How can I help you," the teller looked at him, "sir?"
"I'd like to make a withdrawal."
"What's you're number?"
From behind the behemoth, a girl with light purple-ish skin waved a hand, "All of them."
The teller pressed the emergency button seconds before the computer before the teller exploded in purple fire. She collapsed. "Shame." the Jinx stated.
Mammoth punched his way into the vault as people began screaming and running.
"Halt!" a security guard ran up to the teen's back, threatening to fire.
"Be careful." the teen stated as he slapped the gun away. "You could hurt someone." He picked the poor man up with one hand and then flung him through a wall. He then proceeded to make his withdrawal.
"Who is it this time?" Raven asked the Boy Wonder.
"Apparently Mammoth and Jinx are out past curfew." Robin played the security video. "Looks easy enough."
Beast Boy sighed, pressing a cold pack to his aching head. "Dude! Don't they ever sleep? We just lost to Mammoth and those H.I.V.E. students a few days ago!"
Cyborg snatched the cold pack from Beast Boy's hands. "Maybe if you focused on beating Angel instead of her body, you wouldn't have gotten hurt!"
Beat Boy was about to respond the Starfire spoke. "I agree with friend Cyborg." she state. "After all, what is the manner of speaking? 'Evil does not take naps'?"
"It's 'ain't no rest for the wicked,' Star," Robin corrected as he made his way to the garage. THen he added, "And neither do we."
Mammoth stepped into a back alley with a bag of money. He inhaled deeply. "This is so exciting!" He bubbled.
Jinx rolled her eyes as she too emerged with sacks of cash. "Please, this is just one place. We can hit at least two more tonight."
Mammoth couldn't stop smiling. Before he hand joined up with Brother Blood, he had been taken care of by his surrogate uncle; Bane. The Gotham Supercriminal not only shared with Mammoth fighting-know-how, but also knowledge and the promise that one day he would become legendary, too. Seems like I'm on my way now. A red shuriken flew passed him. He heard a cutting noise and the bag suddenly became lighter. "Aw, Shoot nuggets."
"You got that right, buddy!" Beast Boy yelled.
Mammoth and Jinx turned to see the Teen Titans standing before him. "You humor me." he said, surprising Jinx with his eloquence. "But please let me collect my cash and leave in piece."
"Yeah, we're really going to let that happen. Titan's, go!" Robin whipped out his bo staff and immediately rushed Mammoth to be greeted by a fist to the face.
Starfire threw a barrage of bolts and Beast Boy rushed at Jinx, but the tee witch grabbed Beast Boy's arm and hurled him at Starfire with surprising force. The two went down fast.
Next Raven came at her, but as she was chanting and throwing cars at Jinx, Mammoth slapped the ground and it gave way beneath her.
Cyborg came next with an aerial fist. Mammoth just grabbed Cyborg's arm and hoisted him over his back. Instead of the sound of metal against concrete, he heard, and felt, metal connect with bone. Mammoth clutched his jaw and thanked heaven that it wasn't broken. This gave Raven the opportunity to lay a solid kick to his midsection. Back he went.
"Where's out get away?" Hissed Jinx as she too was knocked back by Robin. With a wave of her hands, Beast Boy transformed from a ram to a snail.
Mammoth shrugged, "I dunno. We didn't expect this so... I think he isn't ready yet." He lashed out with a kick at Raven's face, knocking her into Robin's waiting arms.
"You okay?" The Boy-Wonder asked.
She nodded. "Go." she said as she shakily stood.
Robin nodded and threw two electro-discs at Mammoth. Mammoth raised his hand to slap them away, but on contact electricity flowed through his veins. He howled and fell, nearly crushing Jinx. "Sorry," he stood quickly. Where's my backup? He thought as he and Robin engaged in hand-to-hand combat.
Kyd Wykkyd was supposed to meet them at the bank for the inter-dimensional getaway. His thoughts left him with via punch-punch-bicycle kick courtesy of Robin. Mammoth hit the ground hard. Beast Boy leap and shape shift to an elephant to finish the fight.
Oh, no. We're not going down that easily! Jinx waited till the last minute to thrust out both hands. The resulting hex knocked Beast Bay very far away. She saw Starfire flying in for a solid uppercut and was about to hex the flying princess when she disappeared in a blue flash. "Thank goodness, Kyd." Jinx found herself whispering.
Kyd Wykkyd was standing above Starfire, now on the ground. The mute teen looked at Jinx and nodded.
Mammoth turned in time to dodge a punch from Cyborg and then counter with a knee to the metallic teen's face. "C'mon, Kyd. Let's leave." The teens stuffed their pockets full of cash and then made their way to one of Kyd's portals. "Haha!" Mammoth proclaimed in triumph as they jumped through the portal... only to reappear in the center of the Teen Titans a mere two feet from there they had been.
"Hey! What gives?" Jinx was visibly annoyed.
Raven smirked, "Just a shallow portal." She lifted a hotdog stand with her mind and smashed it into the three villains standing before her. "It was easy to pull you out and direct it here."
Robin and Beast Boy stood over the fallen villains, "And now," The Boy Wonder revealed handcuffs, "It's jail time."
Jinx shyly smiled, "Robin," she said flirtatiously, "I didn't know you were into that sort of stuff!"
Robin ignored her, much to her dismay, and leaned in to handcuff Mammoth fisrt. But before he could fully lock the cuffs, purple star bolts knocked him back. "Ugh... what?" Robin looked up. Before him was Blackfire and she did not look happy.
"Oh, great! There is a perfectly open bank safe right over there and you had to come this way?" Cyborg moaned. "Supervillains really aren't too bright."
"This isn't about money," Blackfire stated evenly, her face displaying no emotion. "It's about making a statement." With that said, she charged down and smashed into Raven, instantly rendering the gray girl unconscious.
"Sister!" Starfire squealed in surprise. Acting on instinct, she fired a few of her own star bolts in an effort to ward off her enemy sibling.
Blackfire ignored her younger sister's call and attacks and instantly rushed Beast Boy. As soon as Blackfire's shoulder slammed into the changeling, Jinx popped up and let loose a flurry of hexes on the ground before Beast Boy. The earth opened up before him and he fell in.
Any other day, Blackfire would have attacked Jinx just as readily as the Titans, but here the witch was no longer competition. Here Jinx was her ally.
Kyd Wykkyd used his teleportation powers to attack Robin. Though the bird boy was the better fighter, Kyd's unique abilities helped him fight in a more iconoclast way. Instead of punching straight at Robin, he would punch through a portal or his cape, landing hits on Robin for near-impossible angles. As Robin was too distracted by Kyd's incessant and seemingly sporadic attacks, he failed to dodge the real threat: Mammoth. With his hands still cuffed together, Mammoth swung both fists at Robin's head. The resulting contact launched Robin into the air for a good few seconds before he came down hard on the concrete.
"Good one, Kyd!" Mammoth praised his protégée, "Now, hows about gettin' these cuffs off me?"
Jinx dodged another blast from Starfire as Blackfire back-flipped away from Beast Boy's dive-bomb attacks. As soon as the floor hand opened up, the green hero hand shifted into a large pterodactyl, flown high int the air, and began to dive-bomb the two femme fatales. Finally tired of the boy's attacks and also wishing to attack her sister, Blackfire called out to Jinx, "How about we change dance partners?"
Is she serious right now? Jinx thought as she threw a punch at Starfire's midsection, she wants me to switch? Wither her? What are we friends now? It was true that in the past the two had nearly always clashed. Whether it was combat, trying to steal the same thing, or even in fashion; they always clashed. But that was more Brother Blood's missions clashing with her free spirit than my desires clashing with hers... Jinx vaulted over Starfire and stole a glance at Blackfire. The girl had obviously changed, but to what and why were not apparent. What the hell. "Yeah!" She laid a solid flying kick to her opponent's midsection and then leapt to Blackfire.
At that same moment, Blackfire dodged Beast Boy's latest dive-bomb and grabbed his ankle. With all the force backed by her super-human strength and anger, Blackfire slammed the changeling into the ground forcibly then flew to switch places with Jinx. As soon as they were close enough to each other, the two girls exchanged an impromptu high-five.
Before he could recover from his daze, Beast Boy was greeted with a foot to the face courtesy of Jinx.
"Sister," Starfire coughed. In her mouth she tasted a copper liquid. "Please, turn yourself in." She stood shakily, "We don't have to fight anymore."
Blackfire was unmoved, "Starfire. Sister. That ship has long sailed. You want me to be apprehended? C'on, try your luck." She beckoned her sister with her fingers and waited. True to form, Starfire attacked. Blackfire leaned away from the rush and stretched out her arm, clotheslining Starfire. Before the girl hit the ground, Blackfire launched her elbow straight down into Starfire's chest. The scream the escaped Starfire's lungs filled Blackfire's ears with reluctant joy.
"Starfire!" Beast Boy yelled for his team mate then looked around. Robin and Raven were down and out. Cyborg was being beaten down by the combined efforts of Mammoth and the teleporter. And Jinx...CRACK...oh yeah. He remembered that she was fighting him, thanks to her fist in his ribs. "That's gonna leave a mark."
"Oh, Imma leave more than that, Green Machine!" Jinx snarled and coiled her arm back again and let loose another volley of punches. It was all Beast Boy could do to transform into a giant turtle to protect himself.
Kyd jumped onto Cyborg's back and enveloped the metallic teen in his cape. A portal opened high above the street and Cyborg dropped.
"Batter up!" Mammoth cocked his fist and drove it into Cyborg's jaw. There was a crack and Mammoth was sure something was broken. He looked to Jinx; she was just finishing up Beast Boy with a blinding hex. She he approached Mammoth.
"So, where's Blackfire?" Jinx asked the burly teen.
Mammoth pointed into the sky. Just then, Starfire dropped to their feet and Blackfire floated down. "It is no longer about things, sister dear. It is now about principle." Then she floated to Jinx and Mammoth. "Thanks... uh?"
"The name's Mammoth," he introduced himself with a hand shake. "And that's Kyd Wykkyd."
"Hello." Blackfire replied.
Kyd just stared.
"Not much for small talk?"
"He's mute. Can't speak."
"Well, thanks." she awkwardly embraced Mammoth then turned to Jinx.
"Don't even think about huggin' me, missy." Jinx immediately put out attitude.
"Who said anything about a hug?" Blackfire's anger churned against Jinx once again. "We're villains."
Mammoth looked around. The Teen Titans were vanquished for now, how could they not notice that? Kyd tapped his shoulder and motioned. Mammoth nodded in agreement, "Y'know." he started, "We made a pretty kickbutt team."
The responses were low and quiet, yet all agreements.
"So... what if this became-"
"A thing?" Jinx finished his sentence. She looked skeptically back at Blackfire. "Ya know, I don't do well with teams. Last team I was a part of split because of a streak of... bad luck." She shifted her weight to her off leg, "Besides, I have just started getting the hang of this... solo gig an' I'm not too ready to give it up."
"I'd have to agree. Besides, I am no longer in this game for the money. I'm in it for the vengeance." Blackfire's eyes started to glow their customary purple.
Mammoth flung his arm out at the scene. "Look around you!" he nearly shouted, "We beat the Teen Titans on their turf at their game! That hasn't been done before! Can't you put aside your pride for one moment, Jinx?" He turned to his clsoe firend, "C'mon. She isn't that bad... Or at least not as bad as you-know-who."
Just the thought of Gizmo sent shivers of annoyance though her spine.
"And Blackfire..."
"What?"
"You've changed. I can tell. You look like you have lost something and you're down here without a family." He gestured to Starfire's prone figure, "Even she isn't here for you." The look in Blackfire's eyes told him he hit a nerve; he was in a touchy subject and would definitely have to tread carefully. "We could be there for you. So the next time, it won't just be you against Starfire and her boyfriend's team. It will be your team against her team."
The alien Exile tossed the idea around in her head. She didn't care about the loot that would come with it. A few months ago if this proposition was posed, she would have immediately shot it down. Literally. But now that she wanted to make her sister hurt? "Fine. One dry run. If it doesn't go as well as this, then count me out."
"Jinx?"
The teen hex looked at her friend then at Kyd. Then after an uncomfortable silence, she spoke, "Okay." It was abrupt and forced. She knew it was the better option, but she still didn't like it. She and Blackfire had meshed in the fight. Rather well, actually; but she still didn't like the alien girl. "We all divide spoils evenly right? In addition, no destroy the city or killing. I'm a living hex, but I can't stand the sight of blood."
"Fine." Blackfire started to float away, "I don't care much for spoils. Like I said; this is a personal vendetta."
"Noted." Mammoth called up to her, "Wait up!" In a flash, Kyd had Jinx and Mammoth teleported on the roof. "Thanks, Kyd," He turned back to Blackfire who was settling down on the building top. "So then!" He put his hand out and the others placed their hands on top. "All for one!" he waited for the others to finish the phrase. When they didn't, he glared.
"And one for all." they mumbled. Save, Kyd he just threw his head back and laughed silently.
After the chant. Jinx asked. "So, who's gonna take on who?"
"Huh?"
"Ya know. Each of us has a specific strength. Which Titan are we best against?"
Blackfire rolled her eyes, "Shouldn't it be obvious? I take on my sister. Or I walk."
"Makes sense to me." Mammoth said, then he smiled. "Me for tin boy." he declared. "His enhanced strength versus my natural talents. And Kyd for Beast Boy."
Kyd stood up fast with a look of pain and resentment for who he had been paired with.
"Aw, C'mon, Kyd. Hew can transform into any animal to fit the situation. You can go anywhere to fit the situation. He's also the fastest. You can teleport to catch up with him. Plus, he is the youngest."
"How old is Kyd?" asked Jinx.
"Fifteen." Mammoth replied.
Kyd pouted but visibly agreed he was the best suited to challenge the Changeling.
"That leaves the bird boy." Blackfire said.
Mammoth scoffed. "He doesn't matter. He's the only one with no powers."
"And no weakness. He's the most unpredictable and well trained. He's their balance. We need a balancer, too."
Kyd silently laughed and then made some motions. Mammoth translated for his charge: "Kyd doesn't see him as a treat even still as he was quickyl dispatched of by both of use working together."
Jinx huffed, "Please, as soon as they regroup and re-evaluate our team, they will swarm us. They still out number use and that kid is just as good at disappearing as Kyd is." She thought for a second then snapped her fingers. "I know someone who might even those odds."
-During the fight-
Red-X slid open Beast Boy's door. Getting into the Tower was a slice of cake. He had managed to get in when he didn't have the suit. And even though the suit was xenothium-less, it was still even easier to get in. Beast Boy's code for the door was easy enough: tofu. Really, Beast Boy? Red-X thought to himself. Were you even trying? He lifted the mattress from the bed and saw the suitcase that held his precious belt. He quickly retrieved said item and made his way out of the window into the cold night. Soon he would have the final component to the xenothium formula. Soon.
A/N: So what dod you think? I really went all out on this chapter and keep thinking it should be two, but I couldn't find a good place to split it lol. it is over 5k words and now the basic premiss has been set up. I wont really focus at all on the Titans unless they are fighting or I absolutely have to. Like my Justice Lords story, I will soon be posting the character art on my dA account (link on my profile) so be sure to check out my Deviant art gallery! :DD Als please read and review! Don't forget to check out my Justice League fanfic "Justice Lords Limitless"!
