Date of Scene: 16 August 2017
Location: Bushwick (Mutant Town), Brooklyn
Synopsis: Summary needed
Cast of Characters: Juggernaut, Crusader, Oddity, She-Hulk




Juggernaut has posed:
    It's a familiar hangout for some. A large rennovated underground and long abandoned subway station that's been hallowed out and turned into a bar/fighting pit/gambling bar/place where things that aren't entirely legal are probably going on semi regularly. An unnamed and unnknown benefactor keeps the place up and running, the drinks flowing and the mutant healers paid for when the inevitable fight gets out of hand or the crowds get rowdier then they should...and truthfully the place has seen some 'celebrities' walk through now and again and take advantage of the fact that in Mutant Town, unusual appearence, size and color isn't as big a deal as say in the middle of Central Park.

The center ring of the place currently has a big burly red and blue skinned and muscled mutant preening about as the announcer invites any comers to take on his challenge. A type of 'open mic' night one supposes. The crowd is interested but controlled. The bar is active and the noise rises and falls with the ebb and flow of excitement in the place. It is then that Cain Marko enters.

The monstrous man is like a wrecking ball with arms and legs, emerging from the deep shadows of an entrance in the far ends of the station, looming chest over the heads of the next tallest person and striding forward into the crowds like an elephant wading through a group of sheep on his way to the bar. The very ground trembles at his steps. Needless to say, people make room.

Crusader has posed:
By the bar itself was a very large (almost as larges as Juggernaut) and hulk-like man leaning agaist a wall in the back. His white hair and world worry appearanced maked him as old...and yet he seemed oddly youthful as well. He had an entire vodka bottle in his hand and took a swig every now and again. No one recognized him as 'Vorn the Steel Orc' as tonight he came as Bjorn. He wore a pair of jean overalls and armored plated heavy boots, along with a tight fitting black t-shirt that reads "Peace, War and Happiness" with an upside down tree. Nearby sitting at his feet was an adorable Corgi!

As Juggernaut went to the stage...he payed attention. He has tusseled with the behemoth twice as two other folks...and he enjoyed fighting him. But for now he kept his distance, simply ready to see what this fight in particular would bring

Oddity has posed:
And in wanders Wednesday in her black and lilac gothic lolita frilly dress with black stockings and high heeled mary janes. Oh boy does she look lost and like she doesn't belong here. Though it peeks her interest it seems as she finds a seat closer to the front to watch what might be going on. Or well stand near the front since seats are probably not really a common occurance in such a place. Her eyes go wide as she sees Cain Marko, her jaw dropping at the sheer height and size of him. And it is then she watches him with her head tilting to the side brimming with the curiosity of a cat. Then she spots the corgi and begins to walk towards it. Once close enough she loudly asks Bjorn "Can I pet on him? I adore Corgis." She begins to bend at her knees as she reaches out to pet on the corgi.

She-Hulk has posed:
Having opted for a night out, Shulkie had managed to find her way here. While her alter ego might have issues with illegal activities, the green goddess wasn't so picky. In fact, she was already down forty bucks from the bets she'd made earlier in the evening. She is sitting in a booth seat near a wall since it was the only piece of furniture she trusted not to collapse. As it was, she had sat down very carefully.
    There are a handful of empty beer bottles on the table in front of her and she holds up another twenty dollar bill as the call for bets goes up. Only to be distracted when the room literally shakes with the footsteps of the newcomer to the room. She glances over in that direction, letting out a low whistle of appreciation upon seeing who it is. If he's fighting, she knows how she's bettin on this round.

Juggernaut has posed:
    For his part, Cain doesn't head right to the ring just yet but instead takes his measure of the crowd and exactly what is going on. He swipes a drink from a passing try but any cry of protest dies on the lips of the carrier as they get a good look at him as he takes a pull from the drink and peers over the rim of his glass with narrowed ice blue eyes. He comes to a stop near the bar, not far from Bjorn and Wednesday but keeps his eyes on the ring nad the lack of challengers wiling to take on the red-blue bruiser. A deep rumble of displeasure rises from the depths of his chest. He came here to try and satisfy Cyttorak's urges of seeing and doling out violence and yet nothing satisfactory is going on. Time to mix it up abit.

A wrenching crunching sound occurs as his huge hand encloses around his empty drink, squashing it from sight and after briefly eyeing and assessing Bjorn, he begins to actually head for the fight finally, stepping past where She Hulk lounges as he does, but not noticing her just yet in his single minded focus on the ring.

Crusader has posed:
Bjorn eyes shift towards Wednesday...his eyes were odd a mix of odd anger...and gentle compassion as if he has been through alot recently. He looks to his corgi and speaks in icelandic towards him "Fardu au spila meo stelpunni Borgi" - which roughly translate to - go play with the girl

The dog springs up and pounces Wednesday in a friendly way barking happily and licking at her, sniffing her hands and everything. His plump tail wagging with the furry of a thousand cute puppies!

His eyes though lock with Juggernaut briefly and seeing him heads towards the ring he says "Best watch yer head Little Girl. Bjorn tell you, man will go flyink tanight...and nit by his own power" he warns. But none the less he was already ready to place his bets - he knew the juggernaut made deals sometimes

But than an emerald beuty catches his eye - She-Hulk. The older man looks her up and down...and quickly speaks to the bartender. He pays a bit extra to have one of the stronger beers sent her way! But none the less he looks to the ring and cracks his fingers....a fight was building and he knew it.

Oddity has posed:
Wednesday goes wide-eyed for a moment before happy giggles escape her lips as she is pounced by the corgi. The kisses only causes more giggles since dog tongues tickle. She continues to scritch all over the corgi and looks up to Bjorn as she says "Flying? Why would someone go flying?" She glances to the ring before she looks back to Bjorn and asks "Wait... he can like... throw people hard enough that they fly?" She carefully scoops up the corgi, giggling more as the licks continue and she looks back to the ring expectantly. Her eyes look over to She-Hulk curiously for a few moments, before returning to watch Juggernaut.

She-Hulk has posed:
    As the bookie comes by, Shulkie passes over her twenty. "On him," she says, pointing after the passing Juggernaut. Then she waves a hand and a server nods, heading for the bar. It is a moment later when she returns but with a different kind of beer than what she's been drinking all night.
    "Excuse me, I didn't order this."
    "From the gentleman by the bar."
    Shulkie leans out a little to look around the server in the direction she is pointing. She gives him a once over, much as he had done to her without her knowledge. Then she smiles, taking the bottle of beer and popping the top. If it hadn't been sealed, she wouldn't touch the stuff. She's not that trusting. She lifts the bottle in a toast to the man then turns her attention to the main event about to go down in the ring.

Juggernaut has posed:
    "Put this all on me." rumbles Cain as he passes a bookie and stuffs a thick roll of cash into his hands. He then lifts up and steps -over- the ropes, into the ring with his heavy movements literally lurching the place and upsetting some drinks nearest to the thing. A few recognize the titan and some wild cheers happen. Most present are newcomers and a mixture of jeers fills the air as the giant redhead bears down on the mutant fighter who beckons, actually unafraid. "Ah, you look like you can actually take a hit!" he declares while flexing his large hands.

Cain looms overhead and stretches his huge arms and then rests both hands on his hips. His tee shirt, featuring Godzilla looming out among the skyscrapers of some anime-esque looking city, stretches to contain his expanding chest. "Yeah? Well..why don't you go ahead and hit me with your best shot.. I'll give you first strike."

He beckons for the mutant bruiser, his expression fairly neutral looking. Almost disintersted though it's probably the 'tough guy' act.

It doesn't go over well with the other guy. "You think I won't??" His fists glow..he lunges forward and a loud unsettling *BOOOM* roars through the room as his fist rockets out and slams violently right into Cain's gut. The force of the impact summoning a shockwave that rattles those closest to the ring and cracks the far windows of the fight club, leaving ears ringing. As the roar dies down, the mutant bruiser looks u at the red-headed giant. Cain's not moved an inch and hasn't even blinked.

Crusader has posed:
Bjorn has seen it before - make it clear he won't be taken down easily. That was cains style alright. Knowing this he got down saying "Little girl, you do not know where you are. This is Fight Club - Mutant addition. People going flying is least of worry" he explains. He procedes to cover the dogs ears as he sees the fist glow "Also, cover ears" he warns

ANd indeed he protects Borgi ear from the shockwave, Bjorn himself seeming completly fine. But the beer bottles in the bar? Each and every one of them shatter, alchohole and beer spilling everywhere. Of course - they were smart enough to keep cases in a 'power proof' area for situations like this. It is Mutant town

And well once the shockwave passes he let Borgi go "Also, she the emerald beuty over there? That is the one and only She-Hulk...Bjorn can tell you this, if she and Cain over there fought....folks might have to clear out" he says with a chuckle. He considers this and begins walking towards She-Hulk "Heck, not often meet an avenger, good chance to say Hello...mabey you become hero" yes even now, in his civilian guise he likes a chance to inspire folks to a better life...even if its through someone else

Once near She-Hulk he says "Greetings! Bjorn hope you liked the beer!" he smiles wide, large enough to be visible even with his beard.

Oddity has posed:
Wednesday begins to watch the interactiong of Cain and his opponent. She looks to Bjorn as he warns her and watches as he covers the dogs ears. She quickly hands the corgi off and covers her ears. Though she didn't expect that blast and winds up tumbling backwards, teeny little thing she is. She quickly scrambles back to her feet to see what is happening. She looks awe-struck as she sees Cain didn't even move from that hit and covers her mouth as it hangs agape.

She looks back up to Bjorn as she says "I didn't even know fight clubs existed. My powers well... they aren't for stuff like this." She then looks to She Hulk as Bjorn points her out and says "Might be a good idea." She begins to make her way over to She-Hulk with a warm smile and waves hello to She-Hulk, she leans against the arm of the seat and looks back to the ring with anticipation.

She-Hulk has posed:
    "The half I got to drink, yeah," Shulkie says as she looks at all the spilled beer on the table with a forlorn expression. "That's just not right. It's alcohol abuse." She turns her head to the ring and glares at the blue/red mutant who just ruined a very expensive and delicious beer. If the other guy wasn't already in there, she might go herself.
    But no, that wouldn't reflect well for her teams so she has to behave. Dammit.
    Turning back to Bjorn, she gives a smile and offers a hand for a shake. "She-Hulk, but you can call me Shulkie." She offers the same hand to Wednesday a moment later. Her eyes quickly shift back to the ring though, not wanting to miss a moment of the action. "Take a load off if you like."

Juggernaut has posed:
    "Uh." The bruiser is clearly shocked by this and clearly out of his depth. He barely has time to fully register what happened..or rather what -didn't- happen when Cain has reached down with his huge hand and literally wrapped it over the mans head with huge fingers as thick as the mutants neck spreading wide like the legs of a tarantula smothering its prey. The mutant is jerked up into the air and curls around the goliath's huge arm, literally briefly swallowed up from sight against Cain's immense physique as the other man rumbles, "Hold still."

He lifts his other hand up curling his middle finger back against his thumb and lining it up against the other mans head. There's a brief pause and then he releases the man and at the same time literally slams him with a finger flick that seems to hit with the force fo a battering ram. The even louder *TWOOOMS* catches the man and sends him literally flying into the air, hurtling skywards and sailing across distance of the bar as the entire room shakes and rattles from the freakish display of strength. The mans body spins wildly, the blow having actually knocked him out..and he goes crashing thunderously onto a table just shy of where She-Hulk sits and Bjorn now stands, sending drink, chips, nuts and who knows what else, flying in every direction. That escalated fast..

"Ah, whoops!" rumbles Cain as he lowers his outtretched arm.

Crusader has posed:
Bjorn chuckles "Little Girl, it is not what power you have, but how you use power. It is what Bjorn love about fight club!" he exclaimsto Wednesday. Though as She-Hulk shakes his hand he states "Bjorn is pleasured to meet Shuldier. Full name is Bjorn Arttursson!" he exclaims "And my compaions are Borgi The Corgi!" he says dramaticly the corgi barking in approval. He looks to Wednesday "And...well Bjorn not get your name yet!" but none the less he pulls out a seat for her - seeming quite the gentleman

But than he looks back, and as he predicated...a man went flying, not of his own power. He cracks his neck and calls out "Alright big shot, time for you to face a real challenge!" old man Bjorn says. The crowd turns to look at who dared to make such a statement!

And a good bit of the crowd laughs. Especially as Bjorn leaves the company of the ladies and begins walking to the ring. His seemed slow, and he did seem old - so regardless of his physique, people clearly thought he didn't have a chance.

But it didn't matter...he had some anger to let loose. Not at Cain per say...but he wanted to crack something. He steps over the ropes and looks up to Cain and even offers a hand "Bjorn is pleased to meet such a large Juggernaut! May this fight be one to remember friend!" and he seemed friendly for a pit fighter - more laughs ensue from the crowd.

Oddity has posed:
Wednesday smiles as she slides her small hand into Shulkie's hand and shakes it as she says "I am Wednesday, or Oddity, or Spooky. I tend to answer to either of the three." And she slips from the arm of the chair into a seat on it, her eyes looking back to the ring with excitement. Her eyes go wide and her jaw drops as she watches the bruiser get curled up and then flicked. She begins to fan herself as she almost whispers "Oh my..." Then she sees just where the guy is coming to and brings up her mental shield to protect herself form getting covered in alcohol, table parts, and nuts. Eventually she drops the shield once she knows all possible debris isn't coming at her anymore.

She look to Bjorn and says "I am still even learning what all I can do with mine to be honest. And full name is Wednesday Sparrow. I like Borgi a lot by the way." She blinks a Bjorn makes his statement and asks "While you are fighting him, can I snuggle Borgi more please?" And she tries to motions for the corgi to come and sit on her lap.

She-Hulk has posed:
    As the opponent goes flying, Shulkie gives a whoop of approval. The body of the man is sprawled on the floor scant feet from them. She spots the bookie. She points his way, making sure he remembers to bring her payout. Then she focuses back to Bjorn just in time to see him heading for the ring. "This should be interesting. Yeah, keep his pup safe in case he ends up flying over here too," she murmurs to Wednesday.
    She doesn't bother ordering another beer. Just in case. Hate to see a grown woman cry if another bottle explodes all over the table.

Juggernaut has posed:
    Shulkie is impossible to miss now as Cain is..well..directly facing that way. His eyes light up with recognition and he rumbles, "Whoa..what's -she- doing here..?" He blinks a few times only to squint his eyes and swivel his attention to the approaching BJorn as the large older man draws near and issues an open challenge. Cain's frown and displeasure are almost tangible at first, weighing down on the air like a sudden oppressive muggy presence.. But then the air seems to lighten up as he considers things and he shrugs lightly and allows a slight grin to come across his features. "You still wanna fight after I did -that-?" he gestures with a thumb over at where mutant healers are busy carting off the unconcious body of blue-red. "..Well..alright then." He sniffs an drubs his nose and then lifts a single arm skyward. He curls his hand into a huge fist and then brings the arm back down, deliberately flexing. His bicep seems to explode in size, flexing to the size of a buick and splitting apart his tee shirt violently as his musckles buckle and visibly grow bigger and bigger, casting shadow over Bjorn. "Your funeral. I'll tell you what, I"ll give myself a handicap and only use this arm.."

Crusader has posed:
Bjorn Arturson says, "Son, if Bjorn wishes to fight efter you did that...than you must like to underestimate folks!" he exclaims cheerfully! "Well if Bjorn opponet wishes to have handicap....than Bjorn will have handicap too! Bjorn will fight with only one leg!" and true to his word he stands on one leg hopping side to side to get his balance. He goes so far as to get some rope and ties his leg up! This made the crowd roar in laughter - this was like a bad joke!

Menawhile Borgi happily sits in Wednesday lap, but whines as if worried about the man. He lays his head on the table with the saddest puppy dog eyes.

But otherwise Bjorn dosn't seemt to try and show off, instead he puts up his hands ready to brawl. "Tell you whit..Bjorn want us to have fun - so...relax" another cheerful smile "Und hauf good timez!" is he serious? He can't be serious.

His face may be all smiles...but it can be seen in the old man eyes - he was deadly serious."

Oddity has posed:
Wednesday happily cuddles on Borgi the Corgi, scritching his ears as she continues to watch eagerly. She asks Shulkie "Do you come to these kinda things often? It is my first time here. And totally found it by accident. Kinda glad though. That guy in the ring that Bjorn is challenging is like a living breathing sculpture. Just... wow..." A dream sigh escapes her lips as she looks over the Juggernaut, then curious begin to perhaps measure Bjorn to Juggernaut and vice versa.

And then there is flexing which makes her dreamily sigh once more and squees almost a little too loudly as that shirt just splits apart. She looks to Shulkie and asks "Who is he... he is... is so... just... wow..." Oh dear seems someone has a new crush and use to live under a rock. She notices the sad puppy look and sweetly murmurs to Borgi "I am sure he will be fine. I doubt your owner would go up against that beefcake if he didn't know what he was doing."

She-Hulk has posed:
"I have no idea," Shulkie admits, not being familiar with Cain Marko. Then she frowns and reaches into the pocket of her jeans. She pulls out her phone. "Oh you have got to be f--" She manages to stop herself from saying the word. "Kidding me! Now? The Moleman has to choose now?!"

She rises from the table, giving an apologetic look to Wednesday. "Duty calls. Have fun and try not to drool too much on yourself. It's a bad look and guys don't go for it," she says with a wink. She heads for the door, stopping to collect her money from the bookie on the way.
    One last longing look at the ring and she sighs, ducking out the door and into the night.

Juggernaut has posed:
    Cain Marko is..not amused. Not good. Sure his muscles might look epicaly awesome, like some herd of ox fighting for space on his body or something. But that also can be used to express anger as well.

"You making fun of me old man?" he rumbles. is eyes briefly flashing red and that terrible pressure in the air rearing its head again as his temper boils up slowly. Cyttorak's influence urges him onward to violence and his outward body reflects this, muscles expanding visibly and his shirt splitting even further, starting to visibly shred as the giant looms over Bjorn. He brings his flexed arm down and rumbles, "I'll crush you.." His voice softer and all the more menacing as he laces his hands together and cracks his knuckles. The sound like boulders splintering and tree trunks breaking. "Get that stupid rope off your leg.."

Crusader has posed:
"No, but Bjorn beleive in fair fight, if you going handicaped, than Bjorn go handycapped! Bjorn not want to have some....some fake fight where folks think they must take it easy! Bjorn want FIGHT!" he exclaims. He wasn't afraid...not even a bit. Cain Anger may as well have been as threatening as a fish out of water to the old man.

He didn't care how Cain felt, he cared about how the fight was

But none the less, he really just put his leg down the rope snapping. He cracks his neck and it sounds like metal pillars snapping. "Now than if your done trying to baby me, let us fight for real!"

And with that...the bell rung. And he decided to give Cain a small taste - with sudden speed and strength one wouldn't expect of an old man - Bjorn jumps up HIGH. High enough to easily reach Cains height.

And his leg comes around to deliver a round house kick! IF it hits...or even if Cain catch it - Cain will likely realize that 1) that likely wasn't this man strongest kick despite how strong it actually felt (alot more than blue/red dude thats for sure), he might even feel it. And Two - he wanted a real fight.

Oddity has posed:
Wednesday offers a smile to Shulkie and says "It was nice metting you. And I will try to like... not to." A blush crossing her cheeks as she looks back to the ring. Her eyes widen as she watches those muscles expand and more of the shirt rip causing her to shift in her seat a bit. She bites her lip as she sees the crack of the knuckles and the sound that follows it. And Bjorn's stubbornness about the fight seems to quite intrigue her. At the sound of metal pillars snapping and that comment, then the bell, she can't help but watch, snuggling Borgi the Corgi come to her. She then gasps as she watches the way Bjorn moves and eagerly is waiting to see if that kick connects.

Juggernaut has posed:
    The sound of Bjorn's neck cracking snaps Cain back to some reality and reminds him that, just as he saw She Hulk here, some superhumans of noteworthy ability can and do sometimes show up here. He's here after all. This might be more seoirus after all. But Cain's got a reputation to keep, is now in a bad mood (especially as She Hulk is gone.)

"Fine, you want me to not hold back..?" he begins to rumble - but then the ball goes off and Cain blinks as Bjorn leaps up into the air and then suddenly *TWHOOOOOM* slams his head with that round house that literally shakes the entire house and sends dust falling from the ceiling. Cain...doesn't move. His head turns slightly to the side but his pillar sized neck flexes, absorbing the brunt of the blow and he purses his lips in thought as he takes the measure of that strike. "That it?" he rumbles "You need more power with that technique. Try again!"

Crusader has posed:
Bjorn Arturson says, "Than. Give. Me. A. Reason" Bjorn growls back at The Juggernaut - if the Juggernaut wasn't going to even try, even prove he was the best fighter here, than he wasn't going to bother giving him his all if the all won't be returned back. Bjorn may be a hero some days...but other times he can be as chaotic as any thug

Borgi himself barks several times hearng and seeing the crack. The Corgi jumps down and begins pulling at Wednesday clothes as if wanting her to go over and check! To make sure Bjorn was alright!

Meanwhile - Bjorn dosn't move a muscle - actually he was almost a statue himself! He didn't blink..he didn't seem to even breath. His stillness was eerie, he...he didnd't even seem alive

Between this and Juggernaut apparent anger, the crowd got restless and stepped back as if sensing an impending explosion."

Oddity has posed:
Wednesday's jaw drop as that roundhouse kick connects and goes wide-eyed. And her shield is activated against to protect herself and Borgi the Corgi from getting ceiling dust upon them. She is completely enthralled as she watches that Cain still doesn't move and his neck just flexes. The words spoken to Bjorn make her close her mouth and swallow. And the growl back just makes her shift until she is sitting on the edge of her seat, literally.

Though Borgi distracts her and not only does her shield disappear she begins to follow Borgi the Corgi and says "Ok. Ok. We can go up front." And she picks up Borgi and begins to walk closer to the ring and she looks worried as she sees that Bjorn doesn't even seem to be alive, hugging Borgi closer to her as he nervously chews on her bottom lip.

Juggernaut has posed:
"Fine, fine.." rumbles Juggernaut, looming up on Bjorn and rearing back. There's a loud creaking sound of muscle tendon stretching and bones popping as he twists, his huge back like a billboard as cocks his arm back, "But don't say I didn't warn you!"
    With that his huge arm is released and it comes hurtling around like a mack truck, swinging down in a hurtling arc for Bjorn in an attempt to slam into him with the force of said Mack truck as if it were barreling down on the freeway at sixty miles an hour but he doesn't simply swing once. His other fist soon follows as his intention is not to send Bjorn flying but to stun and set him up for a series of strikes. Slamming his fist into im with a thunderous *TWHOOOOM* and then anothe *BTTOOOOOM* and then another, each blow becoming more violent and thunderously powerful then the last. When unleashed, Juggernaut has broken Colossus, crushed Thor, broken Hulk. His punches are measured in their ability to cause richter scale measurable quakes. He's not trying to murder the guy but the dial is being turned up and will continue until Bjorn intervenes or Juggernaut goes for a punishing ultra attack.

Crusader has posed:
Each iteration of 'Bjorn' that Juggernaut has faced has been somewhat different. Crusader his hero persona - used all of his abilities his gooey nature, electrcity and sheer strength...but his other persona was different. Vorn never used his fluid nature (by his memory) except to heal but otherwise relied on brute strength and his ability to create electrcity.

But Bjorn? Well he went with the flow instead forgoing his electric abilities and realing on the other. Each punch lands, each hit becomes harder, stronger, meaner. And...Bjorn does not react. Not even a little bit

His body deforms and reforms - every dent made becomes undone as if the man had no bones, no organs no anything. He may as well have been trying to shatter water.

Only when Juggernaut begins hitting earthquake levels of power does Bjorn first step back allowing the fist to instead hit each other and than come forward - luanching his own Barage of punches on Cains gut! These punches were fueled by anger about something - anger that allowed Bjorn for at least a few moments to go beyound his normal strength - would it be enough to even make Juggernaut flinch or even move him? WHo knows, he didn't right care. His own punches could send send a train flying let alone cause small scale earthquakes themself (and thats before he was putting his anger behind it!) But at least now he was giving it everything

Oddity has posed:
Wednesday is about to shout out but stops herself, she knows that being half of Juggernaut's size and possibly just as close to half of Bjorn's she wouldn't last at all in the fight. She just cuddles Borgi closer to her, the dog can sense her worry as she pets on him trying to keep herself calm. Though excitement is echoing in her eyes along with that worry. Each hit delivered but the Juggernaut makes her shift her weight back and forth between her feet. Though she looks at Bjorn in disbelief as he doesn't even react at those hits and each dent becomes undone and softly mutters to herself "Holy shit." And then Bjorn steps back and takes that attack of oppurntunity and begins to punch into Juggernaut's stomach. She can't help but get closer to the ring, not the best of ideas but naivety wins again!

Juggernaut has posed:
    The shockwaves of the blow are shaking the ground, sending cracks racing through the supports and causing people to quickly and rapidly back off and give room to the giants. Cain, for his part, purses his lips in annoyance as well as surprise at this. Sure there is some initial frustration as his blows seem to be slamming into ..water..? But then as Bjorn begins to respond in time the huge man sneers. The blows are..love taps still. They dust against his torso and thud into hsi meaty physique with shockwave creating explosive force, and Cain simply leans into them and weathers the impacts as if they were the brushing of leaves against a sherman tank. But that doesn't stop him from acknowledging them. "Hn..this guy is hitting like Rogue..maybe harder.."

As Bjorn lays into him, Cain suddenly reaches out, intending on catching one of Bjorn's fists with his own and unleashing for the first time a true hint of just what lies beneath as should he catch Bjorn's fist the impact wouuld be thunderous but the giant would neither move nor release the fist no matter how much strength BJorn put against him as his strength sruges towards levels capable of breaking the arms of a Hulk. Crimson energy flashes in the giants eyes as he grins, muscles bulking up and veins the size of shipping ropes standing out aginst his flesh. "Not bad!" He rumbles. "So you want to see what I can do! Here's a hint!"

With that he tries to hurtle Bjorn upwards with one arm and release him as he goes skywards. He then brings his other monstrous and immense arm around, palm open and fingers splayed wide to try and slam them into the other big man with strength able to cause magnitude five quakes. Intending on sending Bjorn flying with this strike as he roars, "kABOOM!!!"

Crusader has posed:
Bjorn is sure as hell not doing down easy...not even close as it will soon be found out! He had alot of anger built up tonight...and who knows this whole place might just come down...mabey.

As he is lauched into the air he yells out "Borgi, you know better!" and with that the Corgi now tires pulling Wednesday a bit away from the ring...esepcialy since Juggernaut was helluva scary man!

As he comes down though he sees Juggernuat wind up his other arm. His arms stretch and each grab onto the edges of the ring as he comes down towards Juggernaut (that was a good 40 feet already!). But than came the 'KABOOOOOM'

Bjorn bodies goes sailing upwards...his arms stretched to 40, 60, 80 feet. And...he comes sailing back! Except this time...he was flying towards juggernaut with the same amount of force he was hit with - thanks to using his arms virtually like slinshot and his body as the bullet...

Speaking of bullets, as Bjorn releases his arms and they snap back into face - he faces Juggernaut rocket style, his fist outstretched - and...the man /shrinks/ to the size of a baseball.

Let break it down here - bullets work because they are a very hard object, going at a very fast speed at a concentrated point. Bjorn weigh 2 tons and is currently condense into the size of a basbeball (and his fist even smaller)

He is the equilivent of a (superhuman)bullet being powered by Juggernaut...hurtling towards none other than Juggernaut.

Comic Sciene...beware Muahahahahaha

Oddity has posed:
Wednesday should do as the others are and back off, but she is standing right next to the ring in complete awe of the two men fighting while cuddling Borgi the Corgi still. Her shield coming back up subconscious as she watches and lets out a dreamy sigh once more. Her eyes widening again as Cain just leans into Bjorn's punches. And then Cain catches the punch and her jaw drops again in pure awe. Then she watches as Bjorn is hurtled up into the air and hit with that palm strike that sends him back up.

If it wasn't for Borgi, Wednesday would still be almost hugging the ring side but she lets the corgi tug her away, her eyes never leaving though. As Bjorn's arms stretch out like that and make him slingshot back to Cain, she watches with amazement especially with those fists help make Bjorn into the new and improved version of rocketman in a whole new way. She shock is on her face as she watches Bjorn shrink to the size of a baseball and was about to walk closer to the ring again but thankfully Borgi stops her once again.

    *TWHOOOOMS*

The baseball goes slamming into Juggernaut's outstretched hand, sending a shockwave that roars throughout the room and takes people who are standing to their seats and blows ou the last of the windows. People start clearing out, that much is obvoius, for the two titans ar very much destroying the place.

For his part? That -was- impressive yes..but Cain has withstood impacts from a full speed Cannonball or Rogue and THor plus hammer..and just stood there. The brute's physical power is simply on a scale that few in the world match and so the force of the blow doesn't skid him backwards though it does shred the ring into ripped pieces.

"So you want to play eh?" he rumbles before whipping his arm around and sending the ball hurtling, full force, down the opposite end of the tunnel towards a distant wall. An act that is sure to trigger a cataclysmic result unless Bjorn halts his flight somehow.

Crusader has posed:
Sure being an 'Unstoppable Juggernaut' is awesome...but it also helps to be 'Stoppable' sometimes. Or at the very least slow down! As Bjorn goes flying he grows back into his normal size again his hand grinding into the ground

That wasn't enough though as the ground begins getting torn to shreds. But it was enough that when he did it the tunnel - it didn't bring the whole place down...

'Whole' being the operative word. The impact was still strong enough to send shockwaves through the whole station and even cause car alarms to go off in the street above. Cracks richocheted throughout the train station - rocks began to fall as people ran to get out of the way of the debree!

Borgi is barking like mad! Struggling to get out of Wednesday grip to go over towards Juggernaut and Bjorn! It tail wagging like nuts as he whines consistantly! Up above the ceiling seemed...less stable

Dust has filled the air - the sound of rocks falling and clanking echo throughout. But as it settles the shadow of a man stands tall! Bjorn! By now his own shirt has become torn...and he seemed nearly as big as Cain now, his eyes red, his fists clenched. He will /never/ be as strong as Juggernaut (okay well never is a strong word), but he sure as hell isn't going to be taken down so easy when he came for a fight!

Oddity has posed:
Thankfully Wednesday still has her psychic shield up around herself and Borgi the Corgi so they are protected from the blast and debris yay! Though she wasn't expecting for baseball Bjorn to the thrown at a wall and then looks amused as he goes back to normal size and slows himself to a grinding halt. Though when Borgi squirms, she can only hold on for so long before he is free of her grasp and she is chasing after him as she cries out "Borgi no!" It is only then she begins to hear the rocks falling around them and closes her eyes to focus on her shield where she stands to protect herself. While trying to focus on her shield she says "Borgi come here please. Lemme keep you safe. I... I don't think this building is going to hold much longer. I can try to protect us."

Juggernaut has posed:
    "Ho ho!" Cain Marko grins at this and reaches up to pull off the shredded remains of his shirt, revealing the freakish exanse of his massive torso. "So you get bigger! I can get scarier to but I won't just yet. I'm still holding back, chum." he rolls his shoulders and then cracks his knuckles. The cracksing roaring like sequoias breaking, "I'll crush you like a can. You need more power but you'll never have enough against me. I'm unstoppable."

He then jabs a thumb at the area..and he indicates the corgi..AND Wednesday! He has noticed her in all that. "But you sure you want to keep this going? Cause if you do.." he lets his voice trail off but the implication is clear. The next punches hew throws will be even greater and the damage that's already being done? The entire streets above may start caving in and that includdes apartments and more.

He reaches down and slams hsi huge hand into the ground. His fingers dig in and suddenly the earth begins to give way as with one arm, Cain starts ripping up a massive chunk of the earth that extends the ful length of the cavern. Pillars ar rended, abandoned subway cars lifted and revealed and more as he gouges out the earth in prep for his next attack.

"Your move, bunkie." he rumbles with a wide grin.

Crusader has posed:
Bjorn growls he actually looked ready to go, but as rocks fall he gives pause. One lands near Wednesday and another infront of Borgi! Borgi startled runs back to Wednesday shaking. Oh he wanted to fight...he wanted to keep going, he could keep going....but something are more important

Bjorn goes down to his usual size "Funny thing, Jugger, Bjon was holding back too" and it can be seen in Bjorn eyes...he was telling the truth. Crusader has used the widest range of abilities...while Vorn and Bjorn more or less limit themselves to two aspects of their powers.

"Bjorn may never be able to stop you...but you can never crush Bjorn - you already tried too and failed" it was the classic case of the unstoppable force vs the immovable (rather uncrushable) object. "But folks more important"

And so he goes over to Wednesday and Borgi saying "Are you too alright?" it seems the fight was over...this time. Except there was no clear cut winner. He looks to Cain and grins "Still...Bjorn looks forward to the day we settle who would really win!" as if they have faught before.

Oddity has posed:
Wednesday looks back to Cain as he begins to speak, watching that already torn fabric be pulled off his chest. And as he notices her, her blush almost crosses her entire cheeks. And then she watches wide-eyed once more as the pillats are rended and those cars are lifted and more and more of the Earth is dug out. She looks about and then looks at her psychic shield around her before she says to the adorable corgi "We need to find somewhere safe. I... I can't protect us from this I don't think Borgi."

She lets out a little yelp as the stone falls near herself and almost cries out in terror as it narrowly misses Borgi. She quickly gathers up Borgi and hugs him close. She looks to Bjorn, dropping her shield around herself as she says "I think so yes... just a... little startled. I think I could go for like... cake or cookies or something right now..." She pauses before she says "Please?"

Juggernaut has posed:
    "What was that?"

That might have been..the wrong thing to say. Cain drops the huge chunk of rock and his eyes narrow darkly, dangerously. Cyttorak's influence surges in him and his body seems to grow even larger. A crackle of crimson energy caresses his form, a prelude to more incoming.

"You really wanna push your look Bjorn? You want to -challenge- The Juggernaut to be able to crush you? You think you're 'holding back' is even a -fraction- of what I deal with to keep from murdering each of you toothpicks each time I lay a finger on you? I'm the JUGGERNAUT! You don't tell me how much you 'hold back' against me! You act thankful I"m letting you walk away! Thre is no limit to my strength. I will CRUSH you!"

He starts stepping forward, slowly but each footstep begins sending a thunderous quakes just from the brute walking as his restraints start clicking off bit by bit. Blocks away people look up as their buildings shake. Across the city seismic readings go off as earthquakes are detected. Even further away, bridges begin to sway. Cain's huge arms spread wide. The armor of Juggernaut beginning to crackle into view on him.

Crusader has posed:
Bjorn closes his eyes and takes a breath. This was NOT the day to get on his bad side. "Little Girl, Bjorn suggest you leave...and avoid buildings" he wanrs. He slides a card into her pocket with the address of his store...as he assume Borgi will be going with her. ANd he stands turning to Juggernaut

"Acting is insincere, Bjorn rather not lie" he says cheerily "And of course Bjorn want to challenge the Juggernaut! Why do you think Bjorn went into ring! Bjorn wants another fight! Bigger fight even!" he exclaims

"But Bjorn wants that between just you and him. Not want other folks to get hurt" he says. "And whats a little riverly without some postering....come now you do it all the time yourself. Going up there, acting as if nothing phases you, as if you do not enjoy fighting. Tell me Juggernaut, did you not enjoy our fight?" he grins wide. Nope he wasn't sorry about the postering, but he was spinning it as a form of Comradery "There is no limit your strength...and there is no limit to my 'poppability'" he explains "But if you wish...we can take this elsehwere and test it out! Mabey on an island or something. Bjorn has much time on hands"

Oddity has posed:
Wednesday watches as Cain only grows larger and bites upon her bottom lip as she watches him. That red energy making her eyes wide. Then she finally learns him name and begins to slowly move to hide behind Bjorn cause Cain just went for omg crush-worthy to oh fuck scary. She looks up to make sure that she is safe and swallows nervously. She peeks out from behind Bjorn and focuses upon Juggernaut and tries to cause and illusion. Though it does seem to matter how much she tries and eventually causes herself to collapse onto the ground from exhaustion. She softly mutters under her breath "Fuck I... I can usually..." She hugs Borgi closer to her and softly whispers "We need to escape, this could end badly for us my little furry friend."

She looks to Bjorn and nods softly, and she begins to slowly stand up. From her bag a business card is produced and put into his hand. She then begins to slowly stumble out, her free hand resting on her head. She shouts to Bjorn "Come to that address to collect Borgi. I will be spoiling him when you come." That address is to her penthouse in Manhattan and out she eventually makes it.

Juggernaut has posed:
    Juggernaut stops. Reason stops The Juggernaut.

"Hrn." he rumbles as the earthquakes cease and the risk of a raging Juggernaut diminishes more and more. He also begins to recall his own personal motivations. He restrains himself and tries to have more empathy these days. Cutting loose here would bring an army of heroes on his head.

"..Fine." he rumbles and with a flash of crimson energy his armor vanishes. Though fortunantly after Wed's attempt which means the poor thing will probably be confused until someone explains to her just how this Juggernaut thing works.

"Fine." he repeats again and then he allows a sly grin, "Sure I got no problem showing you the truth of things. Maybe an island, or somewhere out there where I can cut loose without getting harassed." He waves Bjorn off and turns, beginning to head towards another end of the tunnel, intending to use that to leave this place. "Smooth talking." he rumbles As he moves past wednesday he slows, long enough to give her a long look, and then continues moving on...

Crusader has posed:
Bjorn Arturson says, "Oh ho ho! Bjorn looks forward to that!" Bjorn growls out. Not threatening...but he /legitmitly/ looks forward to it - because at the end of the day, fighting made him feel alive more tha anything sometimes! And his smile slowly turns into a frown. "Dammit!" now he needs to find an island. Well that made his happy mood sour.

Because apparently being old made him a bitof a nutjob. But hey, least the whole city won't come crashing down!

Bjorn head turns 360 degrees, and than each of his limbs, as if loosening them up. He shakes himself off "Oh, should check on Little Girl!"

He pulls out the card and makes his way up - he miraclsly has an upripped shirt on (and to note it was torn up before). But considering this situationed was dissolved...it wasn't to hard to see Wednesday on this night of Tuesday. He calls out "Little Girl! Fite over...have dog back?" he whistles for Borgi!"

Oddity has posed:
Wednesday stops and turns to look at Bjorn as he catches up to her and softly pouts before she asks "Maybe you could both come to the penthouse? I could cook something. Please? I wanna spoil Borgi and I want to get his measurements for something I am making. Pretty please." And she gives the pleading puppy dog eyes cause that always works! Right?
