Chapter 5
Elastigirl
Helen Parr was upset.
She had just caught her husband, Bob, with that platinum-haired floozy named Mirage, after he had sworn it was only her that he loved.
She didn't know what to think about all this.
She had accepted that Bob had been keeping secrets from her. She figured it was to resume his old superhero-lifestyle, that which had uprooted their family twice before.
But to catch her husband, in the arms of another woman, was too much.
It was bad enough the first time on that island, Nomanisan, where she had caught Bob hugging that woman Mirage.
It had taken a lot to convince Helen that what she had witnessed what just a misunderstanding.
But a second time?
Oh, he had tried to deny it, that there was nothing going on with Mirage, but when your husband has another womans lipstick on his mouth and tongue, it was very difficult to believe him.
So, here she was, trying to get her life in order.
She had sent her kids to stay with one of her old friends, actually one of Bob's best friends, Lucius Best, also known as Frozone, while she sorted this all out, hoping that Frozone wouldn't tell Mr Incredible where she had gone.
This wasn't really a problem, though, since she didn't know where she was going either.
She could have gone to see Edna Mode, but that would have been too obvious. Bob would have gone there too, to see the eccentric costume designer and try to talk to her.
But Helen couldn't. Not now.
Now, she was so angry that she was afraid she might say or do something to Bob that would either end their marriage, or drive a wedge even further between them.
She needed time apart from him.
She needed something to take her mind off of him.
She needed... something to punch.
CRASH!
Looking over at the source of the sound, Helen saw a large man in a red and yellow costume, his skin made of metal, roll to a stop and stand up, glaring at the large hole in the building he had just made. She figured he must be about 7½ feet tall.
She gasped when she saw another large hulking figure walk out of it. This man was about 9 feet tall and heavily muscled. He wore large thick, reddish-brown armor, a dome covering on his head, with bands around his arms and wrists, and wearing thick-looking pants and boots.
"I'm not gonna tell you again, Colossus, you stay out of my way, or I'm gonna recycle you!" the man in brown armor said.
"After what you did to my friends, Juggernaut, I cannot simply let you go." the steel-skinned man said.
"You make it sound like I killed them." Juggernaut said.
"I'm sure you had that in mind." Colossus retorted.
"I do now."
Helen just looked at the pair. Their strength-class had to be in the same range as Bob's, so if they started to throw down, it was going to get messy.
Now that she thought about it, this was probably what she needed. And fortunately, she knew which one of them to help.
Juggernaut smashed his fist into Colossus's face, sending him through a stone wall and through several other much more flimsy walls within. But the steel-skinned mutant was not deterred. He stood up and leapt through the holes he had just created and found a sight he did not anticipate.
A woman in a red and black bodysuit, with short brown hair and wearing a domino-mask was twisting her body around and around to incredible lengths, avoiding the super-powered punches of The Juggernaut.
Piotr Rasputin just gasped when he saw who it was. He had heard of her, of course, but he had never met her before.
Elastigirl, also referred to as Mrs. Incredible.
But she was here alone? How is that possible?
Piotr shook his head clear of those thoughts as he raced back into the fray.
"Hold still, bitch! I'm gonna tie you into an unescapable knot!" Juggernaut shouted as he tried to grab her.
"You kiss your mother with that mouth? And 'unescapable' is not a word!" she said as she flipped around him and wrapped her arms around the eyeholes of his helmet.
"Hey!" he shouted as Colossus suddenly slammed into his body, tackling him to the ground as Elastigirl dove for cover.
"This ends now, Juggernaut!" Colossus shouted as he began pummeling on the might Juggernaut.
"Are you kidding? I'm The Juggernaut, BITCHES!" the unstoppable behemoth shouted as he smacked Colossus away. "No One Stops Me!"
Colossus groaned as he wiped the blood from his mouth. "We shall see." he said as he stood up.
While the pair of super strong bruisers quickly got back to trading punches, Helen was just staring at the pair with a sense of loss.
"These two are gonna destroy the city if I don't do something. But what?" she wondered to herself. Looking around she noticed that everyone in the area was now running for their lives. One of them she noticed was the driver of a tanker truck that was carrying two large containers of liquid nitrogen. "That might do it." she smirked to herself.
Colossus punched Juggernaut in the gut, then uppercut him in the face, following up with a kick to his knee. Juggernaut fell down to one knee and growled as the mighty steel-skinned mutant grabbed him by his armor and flung him into a nearby abandoned building.
"I cannot keep doing this much longer. I have to find a way to stop him before he endangers more people." Colossus said to him, a little more winded than he expected.
"Colossus, I've got an idea!" Elastigirl said as she rushed over to him and extended her body to where she was now at his height, and whispered her plan into his ear.
Colossus seemed to perk up at that suggestion.
"Are you certain?" he asked.
"If you can get him into that abandoned construction lot, I'll do the rest."
"Alright."
Within a couple of minutes, Juggernaut was back on the street, wiping dust from his body as he looked around for his opponent.
"Where are you?" he said aloud, then noticed that Colossus was heading into a nearby construction yard. "Can't hide from me."
Juggernaut stomped into the construction site, where he saw Colossus standing in the middle of the site, a large deep pit standing between him and the steel mutant.
"You think that's going to stop me?" Juggernaut said as he started walking around the deep pit.
"Yes. I was hopeful." Colossus said as he squared off with the unstoppable villain.
"You're so pathetic! You know that? I'm not gonna fall for that same trick twice! I'm gonna pound you into scrap and bury you here! I'm gonna make you hurt so bad that... huh?" he gasped when he felt his legs being tangled up by something.
He looked down and saw a red and black rubber band wrapped around his legs.
"What the.. stop it.. I'm gonna... FALL!" he shouted as he tripped and fell into the large open pit of the construction site.
BOOM!
The hole was a good thirty feet down and both dirt and granite.
"That was a dirty trick." Juggernaut grumbled as he looked around to try and find a way out.
That was when he heard the sound of a truck back up. Looking up he gasped when he saw a two large tanker trucks behind lifted over the head of Colossus himself. What's more is that the tankers were filled with liquid nitrogen.
"Oh, Come On!" Juggernaut shouted as Colossus tossed both tankers into the hole.
The two tankers collided with Juggernaut, releasing the liquid nitrogen inside it and filling the hole with below-zero freezing liquid that encased Juggernauts body in an instant.
Now, Juggernaut's body would not freeze because of the energy field his magical powers produced, but the ice would trap and hold him down for a while.
Elastigirl then backed up the large cement truck and then stretched her arm backwards so as to pull the lever on the back of the truck, which dropped over a ton of cement into the pit along with the liquid nitrogen.
Once the hole was filled up with ice and cement, Colossus took a scoop from one of the bulldozers that was sitting nearby and used it to scoop up mound after mound of dirt in order to fill in the hole.
Once that was done, the pair sat down on a group of support I-beams, and just rested.
"Thank you for your help." Colossus said to the woman.
"Thanks for letting me help." Elastigirl said. "I needed to let off some steam."
"I'm sure. It would have taken me longer to defeat him. If at all."
Elastigirl seemed to smile at that. Colossus appreciated her help, but if he had to he was committed to taking Juggernaut down himself.
"Maybe we can do this again some time." she said.
"I would be honored." he said with a smile.
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Authors Notes:
Yes, I'm pairing up Colossus with another of my favorite heroines. Elastigirl from The Incredibles.
Seriously, I'm hoping for a sequel to that movie. Been waiting for years.
And really, why not at least have the pair team up for this little fight. I'm not pairing them up in the romantic sense. But if Mr. Incredible doesn't get his act together, I just might.
