White Fox has posed:
Once upon a time, Fritz von Meyer claimed to be a scientist in the service of the self proclaimed Third Reich. Then he became a beekeeper in Equador or something, before he combined his former unethical profession with his new one and ended up eaten by the bees. But no, menaces like Swarm simply fail to acknowledge that they are outlived, and so he just became the swarm that ate him and started to haunt the world...

Ten Minutes ago
Midtown is busy. Cars rush down the wide streets, people hustle from one place to another, and generally people try to earn their money, including at the banks. Delivery drivers stp and deliver crates, also including to the banks. One of the poor driers has to haul a huge crate into the Freedom Loan and Savings, getting a signature from the employee that eyes the box sceptically, the address telling it would be a deposit into the account of "Dr. von Meyer"....

Now
The box delivered to the bank starts to humm, and moments later detonates, rather silently, setting free a swarm of BEES. Yes, Swarm has arrived, and a swarm of rather angry bees in a blue coat and white gloves is taking over the bank!

Starfire has posed:
Koriand'r is just walking along near the bank. She decides on a whim to pop in to check on her acounts - to make sure her latest modeling contract is being deposited correctly. Of course, most eyes are on the alien bombshell, and as she goes to check on her balance, few probablywould notice the box of bees at first....

Mon-El has posed:
    Lar found himself hanging around planetside today, just enjoying some time to himself. Earth was as good a place as any with yellow or blue solar radiation to take time to recharge. That is, unless something decided to happen or something.

    Like a swarm of bees erupting out of a random box at a bank. First off, he could hear their wings beating inside that crate from a block away. And he had found it rather strange. Insects aren't normally transported like that. Still, he tries not to get involved in things unless it really needs...well, Superman-level punching. Or thermal visioning.

    However, he does arrive quickly on the scene, just to see what will happen because you never know. So he is standing there in his street clothes, staring at the man-shaped swarm of bees with a skeleton in it and wearing a cloak. Not quite staring, though. He's seen weirder.

White Fox has posed:
The box bursting open puts Swarm right behind the counter of the bank, and the hissing and humming words it speak might even manage to distract people from the alien model. "Ahhhh, Amerika, land of kommerzializm and opportunity. You there! Put the kash into the box." He.... They... Point to the box he/they just came from, the hissing and humming of the bees rather agressivly. "Move or I have to make you!"

Starfire has posed:
Koriand'r just whirls suddenly at that odd voice. "Okay - that's a cute getup," she muses, staring into the Swarm's hollow eyes. "So... you are going to leave this place. Are you really dumb enough to try to rob a bank with a superhero right in front of you?" she asks, flicking a glance over to Mon-El then back to Swarm, ackwnoledging his presence in a way that she hopes the bee-person didn't notice. She raises a hand, which is glowing with green light - of course, to a bee's ultraviolet vision, it'd be as brilliant as the sun itself.

Mon-El has posed:
    Lar sighs and folds his arms, watching as the Tamaranean confronts this...bee-person. "She's right." he says, his gaze going back to the robber after meeting Kory's.

    "Stand down, and no one gets hurt. If you were smart and had any sense of self-preservation, you won't make us hurt you." At this, his eyes light up with a crimson glow, a foreshadowing of what could come out of them should this guy refuse to listen.

White Fox has posed:
"And Who are you? Aliens? Illegal ALIENS? You hafe no right to be on Earth! You are not even Human, let alone transkending Humankind! That Money is to fund kritikal research, and now begone, pesky alien skoom." the bee swarm demands, waving dismissively at both Koriand'r and Mon-El.

Starfire has posed:
Koriand'r blinks. "I am here legally on asylum." She just stares at you. "You're probably an alien too. A swarm of insects maintaining a vaguely human shape? That is even more alien than I am. I can't speak for my friend over there." Well, she could - he looks Daxamite to her. Or maybe Kryptonian. Hard to tell, but she can sense the solar power.

Mon-El has posed:
    Ugh. Do these people -ever- listen? Lar groans slightly, the light in his eyes still blazing.

    "You look more alien than we do, pal." he points out. "In fact, the only thing human about you is your skeleton. And yes I can see right through you. So this is your last chance to stand down and leave these -actual- humans alone before we force you to."

White Fox has posed:
"I hafe transcended the human shape! How dare you to demand me to surrender to your filthy, inhuman hands? You can't even hold me!" Swarm claims, hovering over the counter to get closer to the two young heroes, arms spread, cape flattering... *inside* a closed building.

Starfire has posed:
Koriand'r just gazes at you. She shrugs as she points at the Swarm's right hand and incinerates a few of the bees with a blast of starbolts. "Very well. If you won't stand down, I'll roast every bee you can. Her eyes are gloiwng emerald green too.

Mon-El has posed:
    Lar just stands there, his arms still folded as he looks up at the bee dude. He keeps talking, but he hasn't actually done anything. At least he left the bank employees alone.

    He nods. "Transcended, really? Wow, sounds fascinating, why don't you tell us about it?" It's sure better than robbing a bank. "How'd you get turned into a bunch of bugs?"

White Fox has posed:
"BUGS?!" Swarm was about to protest, when the starbold ran over the arm and left only unhealthy discolored human bones behind, exposed to the light. "You... you... You can't do thaaaat!" The beeman claims as he starts to move towards the exit now, the sound of angry bees filling the bank...

Starfire has posed:
Koriand'r just watches. "I believe I can, and I did. I didn't do any lasting damage. Now - run along." She smiles as she gives a thumbs-up to everyone. "Oh - we'll be sweeping this palce for... bugs. Please do make sure you bring everything with you - I'd hate to have to kill more of your pets." She is trying her best to use annoying words.

Mon-El has posed:
    Lar smirks as he watches Swarm run off. "Hey, you're not as stupid as I thought!" he calls after him. "You know because they usually attack us and stuff and then get pummeled."

    "Eh, they can probably get their insurance to pay for an exterminator if it's really bad." he says to Kory. "I wouldn't worry about it."

White Fox has posed:
It doesn't take long, then Swarm has left the bank, fleeing the scene. No returning the criminal to a cell this time...
