On the heels of Black Falcon's latest skirmish with VRA enforcers at around 1:37am, the streets of Metropolis erupted in another battle at 2:15am as MFC units made a vain attempt to bring in two more VRA violators. Coalition members Deacon and Phipher, who or more commonly seen in Gotham, were around town for reasons unknown when the MFC strike force came down on them with everything that they had. The two outlaws battled with the strike team for almost an hour before making a hasty retreat.
The collateral damage caused by the battle is estimated to cost upwards of $3.2 million usd. Mary Stanford was the citizen who made the call to the MFC hotline, courtesy of Lex Luthor, and reported that a super human brawl was going on a block away from Club Lex Lance. Deacon had just taken down small time hood, Namor McKenzie of the Black Lanterns legion after he robbed a local diamond jeweler when the strike force units arrived on the scene. As he battled, Phipher came out of what seemed like thin air and assisted his partner. The two are now listed on the MFC's most wanted list along with the rest of the Coalition. McKenzie was released due to insufficient evidence. The $22 million haul of diamonds and other assorted jewelry McKenzie had supposedly pilfered could not be found. Many MFC officers were injured but none of the injuries were life threatening but the two fugitives did do enough damage to put those men out of action for at least 2-3 months.
With the recent attack on the Lexcorp tower, Onslaught Inc. security teams are on full alert.
ReplyDeleteIn fact, we have taken the mindset that a good defense is a good offense, and will hunt down these vigilantes turned terrorists.
So we have become fugitives...laughable...truly, it is. And so be it.
ReplyDeleteWHOA WHOA WHOA! What the hell. Now we are terrorists? Dang it, Deacon. I should have known something was up when you were in Metropolis... Got to go ghost.
ReplyDeleteThat's funny. When the hell did I become a terrorists? Frank, whatever your name is, you are clearly on the wrong side. On top of all that, this article doesn't mention the fact that me and Phipher ended up getting chased down for more than 3 hours. That's one hour before the VRA even went into affect. Do you guys even plan on letting actual heroes register if they do feel the need to do so? If I wanted to, I would've never made it. Look at B. Falcon. What if she wanted to register? You goons attack her and make sure she doesn't? That way you have plenty of scum lining up for you so that they can become government sponsored heroes? BS!
ReplyDeleteOhh the plot thickens.
ReplyDeleteYou guys are being chased down and I'm roaming free. Should I point the irony in all this?
All, too, will bear in mind this sacred principle, that though the will of the majority is in all cases to prevail, that will to be rightful must be reasonable; that the minority possess their equal rights, which equal law must protect, and to violate would be oppression.

Rapier, I hope you fall on yourself. You villains are eating this up. I kind of feel your pain now. Except for some reason, I keep kicking teeth in instead of going for corrective mouth surgery.
ReplyDeleteIrony? No such thing... They can do as they wish, in the end... We will never stop. As Phipher said, he will continue kicking in teeth. As will I. Don't think this changes the theater of war, no. It only heightens the entertainment...
ReplyDeleteGod damn heroes! Acting like their above the law! Who the hell does Deacon and Phipher think they are? And you, Death Drive! Who the hell do you think you are? Self righteous ass holes! You should do the right thing and either register or give yourselves up!
ReplyDeleteWho do I think I am? I am an echo, a voice that shifts through the boundless night. I am darkness with out eyes and revenge, with no soul. Who are you? Hide behind this pathetic vial of ambiguity like a child calling out to it's mother because it is defenseless. Righteousness has nothing to do with anything in this world, only action and reaction. Attack me, and I will do the same. This might be a simple concept that you can not grasp. You will hate us, ridicule us, attack us, it changes nothing. It must frustrate to no end to know that no one is listening to you. While we act openly in defiance of a fake law, we will not hide, we will stand in the open...the rotted shadow of Luther my have fallen on you, but not us.
