“Stop,” a voice ordered.
Ah, shit.
Either we’ve got someone ordering Bitch around, which might suggest a cape, or we’ve got someone trying to give an order to her dogs.
Either way, she ain’t gonna like it.
Bitch turned and saw two capes. From New Wave, weren’t they? Brandish and Glory Girl.
Oh, hi!
Huh, I hadn’t really thought about it before, but this whole territory thing makes the Undersiders a lot more vulnerable to heroic intervention. They’ve been known as the masters of the getaway because they were working together to accomplish that (especially Grue, Bitch and Tattletale), but now they’re working for the most part separately and with far more visible locations as they claim their territories. If the heroes really go in for it, the Undersiders (except Imp) will be far easier to defeat and capture like this, especially before they’ve recruited.
Also, hey, Brandish, you’re still in action? Did the New Wave shutdown happen yet?
Brandish spoke, “Glory Girl, call your sister. At least one of those people needs medical attention, fas-”
…huh.
When I brought up Panacea, I didn’t actually think she’d be an actual option presented in the chapter.
She stopped as Bitch whistled as hard as she could. Barking and snarling, her massed dogs charged the heroes.
Welp.
Have we learned what Brandish’s power actually is? I don’t think we have. I guess this is a solid opportunity to find out.
