“Around!” Tattletale pointed over Grue’s shoulder.
Wordlessly, Grue steered Judas into a turn. Bitch, astride Brutus, a bit ahead of Judas, looked over her shoulder and turned to join them. Angelica was happy to follow after. Together, we detoured left to a side street running parallel to the ongoing battle.
Yeah, might not want to dive right into that. Sounds like Tattle has a specific destination in mind, though… Does she want to talk to someone at the other end of the battlefield, or something?
“Why?” I called out.
“Safer!” Tattletale replied, without turning to face me.
That’s fair too.
A crash behind me made me duck. Manpower, a powerful seven foot tall athletic figure decked out in white and yellow, had been thrown through a brick wall.
Hi there! You look like a bruiser, like I theorized.
Maybe more than one. He seemed unhurt, but he was a fairly durable guy. Personal electromagnetic shielding, if I remembered right. He was still struggling to his feet after we left him behind.
Hm. Sounds similar to Glory Girl’s forcefield.
“What’s our plan!?” I shouted, raising my voice to be heard as one of Purity’s blasts crashed down to the street to our right.
I thought Tattle was going to explain that between chapters! Maybe she just explained the thing the plan is based on, and not the plan itself?
“Get her attention!” Grue replied. He pointed, “Up!”
Oh boy, here we go.
I guess distracting Purity might help New Wave get some good hits in? The thing Tattle Knew could easily have been that there’d be heroes on the case. But that seems too simple.
