Hostile Takeover (Batman and Flash)

[Giganta]

Washington D.C. was blessed with a sunny sky on this day of normal business, where politicans and businessmen walked the streets of the city to get towards their place of business. Lots of planned meetings were made on this day to make sure that the nation can stay on track, and not fall down on itself.

Mid-afternoon hits the city as the normal signs of lunch breaks begin to filter in, people leaving their jobs to head towards either a fast-food joint or to a cafe for a quick bite and some coffee. One of those people who was walking the streets was a pretty redhead who had her frame covered with a cream-colored trenchcoat.

This one was taller than any other woman here in the city, except for a certain few in stilleto heels. Even they couldn't reach the woman's overall height as she walked towards the Capitol Building, ready to do her job as she had planned it.

Her job: Destroy Congress and throw the nation into chaos.

[Batman]

It was quite a nice day in Washington D.C. at least, it was nice weather-wise. Inside the White House, however, it was not so nice. Bruce Wayne was received a call from the President himself concerning Wayne Enterprises and some technology the President had wanted for his bodyguards. Apparently it malfunctioned and didn't work, resulting in the death of one of the President's best guards. Why that was Bruce's fault, Bruce had no idea.

Nonetheless, there he was, in the White House, speaking with the President and many of his representatives. It was a bitter fight, yet no one even rose their voice. The words they fired back at each other was what hurt the most. In fact, Bruce was getting so tired of fighting with the President of the United States, he excused himself from the Oval Office and stepped outside of the White House. Finally, he could notice the beautiful weather in all its glory.

That's when he noticed an insanely familiar red-head. She had a cream-colored trenchcoat on and her face was discretely covered. The trenchcoat in itself made her stand out as it was supposed to reach the high 80s by noon. Bruce glanced at his watch and it read: 11:53 am. Bruce put his hands in his pants pockets and stepped down onto the pathway leading towards the sidewalk. He reached the gates as she walked by.

Giganta!

Bruce silently gasped and semi-jogged back towards the White House. He came back into the Oval Office and created an excuse as to why he had to leave, grabbed his briefcase and walked out of the room. Bruce quickly ran into the garden behind the White House and pressed a button on his "watch". Almost immediately after, the Batplane soared over Bruce and a ladder fell down towards him. Bruce grasped on and climbed into the Batplane. There, he changed into his Batman suit and kept a careful eye on Giganta.

"WHOA! That was close"

And, for the second time, Bart's head was a blur of motion as the fist slammed into the wall behind him, taking out several bricks, and showering the area with dust that used to comprise building materials."

"It was just a simple..."

The words were interrupted by the need to jump that was necessitated by a knee coming up between his legs. As fast as he was, it was still almost a hit, and only his reflexes kept very sensitive areas of his body from landing on that knee as gravity recovered his body from its upward flight.

"question. I mean you..."

This time, the fist slammed into the brick wall, punching a hole through it right where his stomach and spine had been a split second before.

"were the one who chose the outfit."

His head dropped low, moving faster than gravity could contain it as a blue heel completed a roundhouse kick that caved in a huge section of the poor wall that had been taking quite a bit of punishment. But, the opening had been presented, and being fast of foot also necessitated quick reflexes, so Bart turned into a blur of motion, and disappeared into the exposed room behind himself to give at least a brief breather. Thinking fast Bart spotted a cable and grabbing it he tied the woman up before she could do anything else to him.

"Next time I'm going to the Bahamas for a vacation." He muttered to himself as he headed into a near by ally to change out of his costume then headed back out onto the streets hoping to enjoy what was left of the day.

The walk was peaceful and brisk as the large woman crossed the street that would lead her towards the Capitol Building. A gentle breeze whipped her red hair about a bit, but she didn't care about that too much. All she wanted was to get to her target and smash it to bits, leaving this country in more uncertainly than ever before.

There were a lot of people who were staring at her, never seeing a normal woman of that height before. She didn't care about that, for the majority of them would be crush to death before they would make their reactions known. It would be a glorious sight, indeed.

The sun shifted its position slightly as the Capitol was now in front of her as she crossed another street, smiling a bit as she began to envision this historic building as a mass of twisted metal, blood, and rumble. With a chuckle leaving her lips, she began to walk towards the entrance when a couple of Secret Service agents came in and got in her way.

"Excuse me, ma'am. What business to you have in there?"

"Has Congress started their session yet?"

"Yes, and the Capitol is closed to visitors until the session is over."

"Sorry, but I hate being rejected."

At that, the woman grabbed the two men by the neck and snapped them instantly with the use of her strength, giving her a great feeling of satisfaction. She released her grip of them as she proceeded towards the Capitol, the now-dead agents hitting the ground with an awkward thud.

[Batman]

Batman sat in the cockpit of the Batplane, hovering high over Washington D.C. Inside, he was watching the red-headed villainess, Giganta. She was walking towards the Capitol Building, where Congress was in session. Batman had a bad feeling she was going to interrupt the session and when she snapped the agents' necks, he knew it was time to act.

Batman jumped up out of the seat and dashed over towards the door. He slid it open and jumped out of the Batplane. He threw his arms out, fling his cape out as well. It snapped into place, forming into a parachute that glided Batman down to safety. He landed behind Giganta and watched her as she walked towards the building. Batman threw to ice pellets at her feet.

"Giganta! Stop! What do you have against Congress?!"

[Giganta]

((OOC: Skipping over him))


A freezing feeling came over her as she looked down to see her feet being slowly covered with a thick sheet of ice. She started to shiver a bit, but then, the voice of the one that caused her frozen state got her blood boiling again. It was the Batman, one of Wonder Woman's companions. It wasn't enough that she had to go through Congress to get what she wanted, but now, she had to take out the 'Dark Knight' as well.

With a sadistic smile, Giganta looked behind her to see him, cape and all. She knew that he would have a few tricks inside of his belt, but it wouldn't be enough to stop her.

"If you must know, Congress is going to pass a law to increase the search and containment of us villians. I'm sorry, but that's something that I will not allow."

At that, Giganta started to grow taller, looking down at Batman as she grew to 10 feet tall, her trenchcoat feeling really snug around her expanding frame. She wanted the height just for the strength increase as she lifted her feet out of their icy bonds, breaking through the ice in the process. Some of the people saw this and started to run away from the scene, not wanting to be a part of this.

"Now, Batman, if you excuse me. I have some 'real' business to take care of."

Giganta turned away from him and headed towards the Capitol Building once more, wanting to finish what she was about to start.
