The Battle That Ended The Century

People say that war is hell. This looked it.

Buildings and cars and bodies are scattered like broken toys as far as the eye can see, stretching out toward a dirty horizon. Even the clouds seems streaked with mud and blood, and they're taking it out on everyone below with a constant stream of cold, soaking rain.

The sounds of fighting seem to come from all directions, but at this moment, there's no one else in sight.

A breather. The calm before the storm.

"Jawhol!"

He hesitated for a moment, eying Lex. He didn't like the idea of leaving what appeared to be people behind for that thing to munch on, but... he didn't really have much of a choice.

"...alright. We're going to move. Give us covering fire!"

Oh Samus could take care of giving them plenty of cover. She unlimited ammo made her all too powerful on this battlefield. Her only limitation was her ability to maintain focus on the battlefield.

Unfortunately she also sticks out in her bright orange armor. And if it walks like a tank and talks like a tank (metaphorically speaking), it'll call for anti-tank weapons. And one rocket found itself on path towards the hunter. Her danger meter skyrocketed at the last possible moment. She looked up and lost her focus for just a moment, but that moment was long enough.

The impact was quick, but it caused quite the little explosion. A cloud of dust rose up immediately and the hunter was out of view.

But after a moment it cleared up. The heap of metal lay motionless, face-down in the dust. She finally stirred. Her head hurt. All sorts of warning and danger signs flashed across her HUD. She was okay. Rattled, but okay.

"Dammit," All her powerups were offline. Her armor needed time to recalibrate. It was essentially useless for the time being. She propped herself up and dragged herself behind cover before letting her armor dematerialize back into her body. There was no point in using the energy to keep it out anyway. Now to find a gun...

Plan be damned, Bruce waits for a gap in the salvo then scurries over to Samus' position, firing off a few shots to force their attacker's into cover.

"There goes our powerhouse. You hurt?"

She had a few good bumps and scrapes. They hurt (They kinda hurt a lot), but she didn't give up so easily.

"Fine. I need a gun," because she couldn't afford for them waste time on being concerned over her.

"Here, take one of mine!" Superman said, taking one of the pistols and tossing it to Samus. "I can find another if need be. Remember that we're not playing by our rules right now."

He may be powerless at the moment, but if sacrificing some of his own help to aid others meant someone could keep going, then so be it.

"Okay! Go, go, go!" Robert yelled over the sound of the battle and began firing off rounds as fast as he could pull the trigger.

Rob didn't have to tell Lex twice, he was quite happy to be moving away from the gunfire.
