The Blue Beetle nodded.

"Same plan, or are we going to do something different?"

The Question continued descending and at the first floor he said "Why did that man refer to us as justice?"

The area just outside the mall swarmed with badges, as crime-scene investigators and policemen emerged from their cars, taping the area and getting the creature and its two victims on camera. Pedestrians on the street stood still in awe, as they saw the demon that terrorized the city and hurt so many people, finally brought to justice. Not wanting to risk ending up like his fallen comrade, a policeman restrained the beast's hands and feet with some special handcuffs, these ones specially designed to contain a large mutant. When he was finished, he stepped away from the creature, shaking his head.

"Goddamn hairy midget... Why did you let him go free? Why...?" he muttered to himself, his voice teeming with anger.

"One of them asked who we were and I, um, got overly dramatic."

The Blue Beetle shook his head.

"That would be silly. We aren't wearing suits, not on a mission from God, and you aren't wearing blue. The joke would not work at all."

Rogue glanced down at the cops swarming around the mall. She actually felt sorry for Langstrom, considering he had no choice in changing into that horrific beast, but she could not just let him kill more innocent people. After all, she had no control over her power, either, and she sent poor Cody into a coma because of it. She discovered that she had crushed the rail of the fire escape while she was thinking.

"Well, Rogue, you're a hero, now," Rogue muttered to herself, and glance towards the windows that Spider-Man entered. However, it seemed like the floating cloaked woman was handling the situation, and she lacked her gloves now, so she might have trouble avoiding touching either of them. She merely watched the two.

The front desk of Stark Industries stayed busy pretty much nonstop, with people calling about sales offers, buying equipment, interviews, all the usual things that came though the business office of an internationally traded company. Once upon a time there had been some giggling blonde named Bunni that made her best attempts at working the phones, but as soon as Pepper had taken over as CEO, Bunni had found herself carefully moved to a slightly more appropriate work environment (greeting people at the mouth of the lunch room with the day's specials, Pepper just hadn't had it in her to fire the poor dull thing), and with a bit of wheedling, Pepper had convinced Tony that JARVIS was more than capable of multi-tasking the phones.

So whoever tried to call to the reception area, got him.

Stark Industries, please state the name of the employee you are trying to reach, or the name of the department that can best assist you. If you would like a listing of departments, please say "list departments".

As soon as Jameson slapped the package on his desk, a ticking noise could be heard. In fact, if he opened the package, it would reveal the bomb, complete with a Joker clock and a countdown until the explosion. Attached to it all, there was a note, writing in beautiful handwriting that clearly didn't belong to the Joker. "On the newspapers, you shall talk about the Joker this time, or your face will go kaboom by the end of this rhyme!"


"Hello there!" said the Joker, removing any Joker-ness from his voice, the voice modulator making him sound older. "My name is Jack Napier. I'm the CEO of the Nolan & Napier Corporations, and I have been accompanying the work of the Friends of Humanity ever since those... mutants showed up, and I must say, I really like it! I'll be visiting New York for a meeting with my CFO, Christopher, and I would like to talk with you a little bit about the... situation with the mutants, and how I can help.

They arrive at the building, which looks as the Question described it, a bunker mixed with a warehouse. "Could you scan this one too?"

The Blue Beetle flies away from the building into the sky and, once he reaches a level of height where people will not notice him, he flies over the building. He begins to scan and observe it.

After finding his jetpack, Rocket was soon in the air again. "Hey Pyko, I think I found our bird," the raccoon said to his tortoise friend. "Send me the location of Madison Avenue and zero in on any clock towers."

"Got it!" Pyko replied as he typed in the findings. Soon a map appeared with a blinking red dot on the New York, showing the location of the Owl's lair.

"Also, send an email over to Detective Carver an invoice about that first batch of crook I nabbed," Rocket added.

"Done and - !" There was a sudden pause. "Oh crud....."

"Oh bloody Hell, what is it?" Rocket asked. "Joker decided to do a second attack today?"

"Actually.......you remember that bat creature from yesterday?"

Rocket's eyes widened. His grip on the controls tightened.....

"He.....he attacked inside a crowded mall, coming right out of the bathroom," Pyko nervously explained. "Tore out a cop's spine and then drained the blood of a random woman......and.....a-a-and from the security feeds......um....."

"Would you ever so kindly plus tell me?" Rocket's voice sounded less like his usual gruff voice. It sounded more refined, more polite......

-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-

Pyko's green skin was paling and the air conditioning was working overtime to compensate his body heating rising. He knew whenever Rocket's voice became calm and hoity toity sounding, his furry friend was on the absolute warpath with someone. The tortoise remembered vividly those very rare times this ever happened. The one time he failed to stop the raccoon from reaching that path's climax......the result left even LOBO of all people horrified.....

The engineer was considering on stopping with the dead victims, but this train of thought was like a car on a slick road in a snow storm failing to brake after noticing a cliff one second too late -

"That girl with the white streak in her hair, Rogue.....she was there as well," Pyko relunctantly continued. "The monster actually approached her.....luckily she wasn't hurt - "

"Pyko old chap?" Rocket replied.

Oh dear merciful Gideon, he said "old chap"!! Pyko mentally screamed. "Y-Y-Y-Yes?"

"Put down on our itinerary after Owl hunting and doing security work, to pick up a nice necklace......made from bat teeth."

A beat.

"With a matching leather purse and fur coat......."

"Word for word, buddy!" Pyko quickly communicated.

The comms light turned off, signaling the communication cut from Rocket's end.

The terrapin slumped slack in his chair, his body being completely slack after being more rigid than a rod made from Nth metal. The temperature heated up again after the reptile physically relaxed, but mentally he was still very much scared. "I am so glad I'm on the moon right now......" Pyko said.

"Rebbecca? Francine? No...! NO!"

The bat beast suddenly woke up screaming, startling the investigators and crowds. Everybody grew silent as the police trained their weapons on the beast, who said nothing more. When it noticed it was chained up and weighted down in front of dozens, it became nervous, and cowered behind its wings.

Rogue blinked as she felt the power she had borrowed from Man-Bat had faded... Which meant that a very angry Man-Bat would soon awake. However, this also meant she'd be little help for the cloaked woman, but if Man-Bat got free, she wasn't sure if she'd be able to surprise it again.

Rogue pulled out her cellphone... While her first inclination was to call the Blue Beetle, he was busy, and she knew it. However, she did know Stark's number, but she wouldn't know how to hint at him to come in his armor without revealing Jaime's secret to the man. However, the Institute was supposed to have Lanstrom at this point. Did they know he could turn into that Man... Bat... thing and got free? God, Jaime didn't know himself though that was probably because he didn't do a deep scan.

Rogue frowned as it was apparent that Langstrom was currently in control of the creature's body. She certainly didn't want him to suffer through this, but she couldn't let the beast wander killing anyone in its path, either. Especially not after having the images of his two victim's deaths burned into her mind.

"I'm sorry..." Rogue said more to herself than anyone else and continued to keep an eye on Man-Bat for any sign of possible trouble. She even climbed down the fire escape, but stayed in the shadows, since right now, she'd still be the only one here who could take him on should he get free.

The bat monster seemed to be sobbing, not from physical pain, but from emotional anguish.

"What have I become?"

Rogue decided ultimately to call Jaime. She needed someone to talk to right now. As soon as Blue Beetle picked up, she would begin.

"Blue Beetle... It's me, Rogue," Rogue said to Jaime, very shakily. "Langstrom... has transformed into this... Man... Bat... thing."

"I'm okay!" Rogue clarified to Blue Beetle before he could butt in. "I was able to use my mutant power to subdue him long enough for the police to get him under lock and key, but not before he killed two people."

"I don't think he was in control of his actions, though." Rogue replied. It was very obvious from her tone of voice that she was rather shaken from the recent events, but needed to hear a comforting voice first.

As soon as Jaime heard what Rogue had to say, he completely forgot what he was doing and began to fly straight to Rogue. As he spoke, it was clear that he was very worried.

"I'm glad that you're alright, be there in a minute. I'm sorry that you had to see two people die and that you had to use your powers."

He spoke in a much quieter, but still understandable tone.

"I should have been there."

He returned to speaking in a worried manner.

"You're pretty amazing you know, going up against him like that. How is, what is he doing now?"

"Don't come on my account!" Rogue replied to Jaime, obviously believing that what he's doing is more important than him arriving here after the fact. "You've got that thing you're supposed to be doin' and he's already cuffed and under control..."

"I... It's... He's cryin' about what he's become and what happened to his wife and daughter," Rogue explained to Blue Beetle. "I think I'm going to try to talk to him."

"Two people I care about are upset and shaken and have just been through a very painful ordeal. There isn't much that could stop me from going to them."

Jaime landed a couple of blocks away and made sure to block himself from being recorded on any cameras as he transformed out of the armor. He is wearing three different hats, three different jackets, and one of those pairs of glasses with the fake nose. As he runs to the mall he throws off most of the extra clothing, which evaporate a good ten seconds after he takes them off, until he is left with only a single hat and jacket. He continues to speak to Rogue using a Bluetooth.

"I'll meet you where Langstrom is in a minute."

Before Blue Beetle got sidetracked, he saw that the inside of the warehouse crawling with guards, all looking to be alert and ready, and each with their own pistol or submachine gun.

Jameson was confused by the ticking, and proceeded to unwrap his gift. He took one moment to register it before flattening himself against the wall. Gradually, he removed himself just enough to look at the rhyme on the box. Then, very calmly, while humming Auld Lang Syne under his breath, he tenderly picked up the bomb, brought it slowly over to the back of the room, gingerly opened a window, then unceremoniously chucked the bomb out the window to the sidewalk below.

"And THAT is what the Daily Bugle thinks of your terrorist demands!" He shouted down. Then he slammed the window, rushed back to his desk, plopped down in his seat, and stick both fingers in his ears.

Rogue hung up and sighed, shaking her head and pocketing her cellphone... She eventually left the shadows of the alleyway to approach Dr. Langstrom.

"Please calm yourself," Rogue began to speak to Dr. Langstrom, hands in her pockets to avoid skin contact. "I can guess how ya must be feelin' right now... Ya feel like you've been cursed by the world, havin' the power to harm others, but not bein' able to control it."

"I know how it feels, but ya must find some way to control your curse and not let your curse control you," Rogue replied, knowing that feeling all too well. After all, she desires most of all to either learn to control her power or, failing that, cure it. To have human contact, she had to control or cure her power. She knew what Langstrom must be feeling all too well.
