Zod has posed:
     Having spent the last half of the morning, and part of the afternoon at a local police precinct, answering several dozen questions, and breaking three different sets of handcuffs 'accidentally'. The police finally got the hint that while Dru-Zod was being compliant, he /wasn't/ going to be 'restrained' ticketed and fined and informed of when he would need to pay the fine Zod left and is now walking through central park, the silken robe/gi outfit he's wearing waving in the wind his hands clasped behind his back as he studies the people of this planet, folks bicycling, picnicking and such.

    Suddenly in mid step Zod lets out a gasp of pain bringing his hands up to the side of his head fast enough to have his fingertips create small cracks of sonic booms he covers his ears as a loud ringing starts to devlop as the sounds of the surrounding city start to bombard him all at once. Taking a staggering step his eyes closed he falls down to one knee the concrete below him breaking and cracking loudly as well as he lets out a sound of pain louder than an air horn and compounding his hearing issues..

Breath has posed:
Breath is flying, and very much not helping with the noise level since she is making a huge roar of air in the process. Then she sees some booming shockwave effects down there and frowns a bunch. She angles down and starts spiraling down toward the source, slowing and losing altitude, staying a bit away from the source for safety sake.

Coming close to the ground, she roars to a stop on a plume of exhaled air, then starts inhaling in a comically huge breath of roaring air, before wandering up toward the source of the noise in some concern.

Kaelyn Silverleaf has posed:
No flying for Kae, least not this time.. Nope she simply steps out from behind a tree, having not really walked behind it in the first place. Ie she just litterally walked out of nowhere... Kae yawns and stretches her back, having just pulled the whole all nighter thing, before she hears someone shout like a fog horn... "Uhhh, what in the world?" She asks curiously...

The redhead begins looking around now at this point curiously, the critter, that was riding on her shoulder, now hiding in that backpack of hers as the woman reaches into a pocket and pulls out, of all things, a phone... And no she's not really trying to videotape, instead she litterally pulls what looks like a a small rod from the screen, this having a large number of silver runes impregnated in the surface.

Zod has posed:
     Dru-Zod doesn't know what's happening to him, all at once the sounds of the birds flying, dogs barking, the police sirens four blocks down the way all sound like they are right inside the Kryptonians head. Standing up and staggering away from where he fell, one concerned citizen who was jogging by and caught by surprise doesn't realize the sound of the yell came from Zod. "You alright man?" he asks as Dru-Zod stumbles past pushing him away as he tries to make it to where he left his cloaked ship, the 'light' shove enhanced by his growing strength sends the man flying thirty feet to land in the middle of a pond, a yell of shock and surprise coming from him while others who watched this start to panic and run away.

Breath has posed:
Breath winces. She waves at people. She has a costume on. People with costumes are apparently the kinds of people to deal with this. "I've got this! Someone help him out of there and stay back! Move away from the area in a calm manner!" Ugh, she HATES having to yell, it tears her voice up.

She wanders after the guy who is in apparent pain and who has superstrength. As calmly as she can manage, "Hello, you look like you are hurting, are you okay? Do you need something?" She sighs a bit, concerned about things.

Hulk has posed:
Bruce really doesn't have time to babysit Zod all the time with the 'mushroom' crisis requiring so much time as the Hulk, but he does have a fast response Avenjet ready for him to dropoff for dealing with the sheer number of emergencies the Avengers are being called for. This time, his projects are interrupted by a Zod going out of control.

So, it shouldn't be that much of a surprise to see an Avenjet fly over... and for Bruce to jump out the back of it.

Without a parachute.

What was once a pink skinned human turns into a green skinned ten foot creature of massive muscle and bulk in mid-air, that leaves a small crater as it thumps down onto the ground without even bouncing in place, right in front of Zod. "Black robe man need to stop causing damage to the city, or Hulk will knock black armor man out." The Jade Giant delivers by way of ultimatum, looking right down at Zod.

Kaelyn Silverleaf has posed:
And now Kae is moving closer to the messup, and stares as a fellow ends up being launched into a lake... Kae frowns and her right hand moves some, some glowing lines with ghostly runes appearing there briefly, before the fellow in the lake is standing near her, dry, and uninjured...

He's looking around all suprised, for a moment when Kae turns and looks to him, then points with a finger on her right hand "Ya wanna go that way." She says with a smile... "Hurrying would be good too..." She says in a calm, cheerful voice before she turns back to see now the Hulk, threatening the fellow who just lightly 'flicked' a nother fellow into a lake..

Kae then makes her way toward the not-so-jolly green giant, and Zod... "Ummm sooo, forgive me, just the musings of a concerned... citizen and all, but are you allright?" She asks Zod, really not quite knowing exactly who he is. "Though, sir I think you look rather familiar.." She now glances to the Hulk "Yer definately on the cannot miss list...."

Zod has posed:
     Dru-Zod is making his way north still wobbly on his feet, grimacing at the loud voice of the Hulk. "Cannot think, the noise.." he says disjointedly falling down again as he trips over his own feet his arms going out to catch himself on the pavement punching holes through the concrete with loud booming cracks that cause him to hiss in pain and sending a gale of wind out from his superpowered lungs to wash against Breeze...

Breath has posed:
Breath is.. actually really used to dealing with big blasts of air. She does it herself a lot. She ohs, shifting stance to stabilize herself. "Okay. You're breathing really hard. Take small bites of air." She frowns. The hearing bit she doesn't know how to help...

Hulk has posed:
When it becomes clear Zod is out of control, Hulk thumps forward, grabbing and encircling Zod with both arms into a bear hug. He knows just how much the alien can take, being Kryptonian, so he doesn't bother to restrain himself but for a bit of moderation if Zod seems like he's barely able to breath. Having just transformed though, Hulk is still at a baseline of strength. "Hulk keep you from doing anything else." Hulk states with finality.

Kaelyn Silverleaf has posed:
Kae blinks and umms "I dunno if that is the best way..." She says and realizes she's trying to talk the Hulk out of doing something and having read stories and all is at a complete loss... SO she addresses Zod... She simply whispers though, seeing the fact he's complaining about the noise she's hoping maybe her being quieter will help. "Explain what all is bothering? Mayhaps I can help?" She says, now well, wanting to help and still having zero clue who this person is...

Zod has posed:
     Dru-Zod might not be able to hear anything but a roaring cacophony of noises right now, but he /is/ a Military Guild born Kryptonian Soldier and as soon as The Hulk is bear hugging him, he grits his teeth in anger, rearing his head back to try and slam the back of his head into the nose and/or mouth of hulk he already starts to try and flex his arms to loosen the grip on him as he swings out with one foot, using the backswing of his arching headbutt to bring his heel down in an axe kick to the green giants groin. "RELEASE ME!" He commands in surprise and anger..

Breath has posed:
Breath cringes. This doesn't seem like it is going well AT ALL. "Hey! Please don't pick a fight! I'm trying to avoid making things worse!" On the other hand, this is the Hulk, so.. she.. says this while backing up. Craaaaap. She starts planning exit routes. Situation completely disastrous.

Hulk has posed:
He was expecting some pushback, so despite the grunts of pain from Hulk as he gets attacked, he is momentarily rendered unstable from getting hit on multiple points. His arms unfold from Zod as he reaches for his face momentarily, dropping to one knee from the sheer force of a Kryptonian headbutt. The sound of the hit also echoes through the area, before Hulk shakes his head and growls.

Standing him, Hulk bares his teeth as he stares down at Zod, "Hulk try to be nice, but black robe man just want to ruin city. Hulk SMASH!" With a roar, Hulk jumps right at Zod hard and fast, headbutting him right back like a battering ram to send him flying backwards if he connects.

Kaelyn Silverleaf has posed:
Kae stares at this scene, before noticing Breath... She quickly teleports her self next to Breath and tosses up as strong of a defensive ward as she possibly can. "These are big boys, stay behind the ward for now I think?" She says as Hulk screams out Hulk Smash... "Aaand he goes back with a headbutt...." She mutters, sighing... "Y'all need to stop this!" She shouts out "Too much collateral!!"

Zod has posed:
     Dru-Zod is already moving to dodge before Hulk has righted himself, rolling forward and then pushing himself to the side to roll back up onto his feet with his strength, the combat, something he is familiar with gives him something to focus on like how a minor pain somewhere else on a persons body can distract from a larger issue. "Tell that to this emerald hued lummox!" Zod says aggrivatedly his robes shifting and changing turning into a skin tight suit of black armor, a diamond shaped iconograph appearing on his chest in silver of his Kryptonian House the background colored in bronze. "Ursa, activate defensive systems and home in on my location." he gives a command as the armor folds up to cover his chin, forhead and ears leaving his face exposed. "Stand down creature, your unprovoked attack may be forgiven, but further violence will not." he says firmly..

Breath has posed:
Breath nods. Hides behind the wards. "Yeah, is this going to hold up? Or should I just run for it and wait for somebody bigger to do cleanup?"

Hulk has posed:
It doesn't look like Hulk is listening, as by the time Zod is dodging, Hulk is switching his momentum to take a swing with his left fist against Zod, directly on center mass, "HULK NOT LACKEY FOR YOU TO ORDER AROUND, BLACK ROBE MAN!" Hulk roars back, the multi-pronged attack just seconds before already having pissed off the Hulk after he tried to do a good deed.

Kaelyn Silverleaf has posed:
Kae calls out "He's the Hulk." She says as if that explains everything... At the mention of defensive systems she blinks "Uhh, not a good idea, nonononono.... " She then glances to Hulk "Hulk, please! Stop! You're making things worse right now... Think of the city, all the people, kittens, and puppies..." Yes she's trying to use cute things, maybe that will work. "That a fight with ummm..."

She sees the emblem, and things click, she's been around kryptonians before, they have a thing for those diamond shapes... "Umm A kryptonian I think? Would do to everything around..."

Kae glances back to Breath "Umm well these wards held up for a bit to attacks by DarkSeid's forces once... If you notice them start to crack, tell me, I'll try to gate us to a safer distance... I think he's Kryptonian, and if so my magic should be quite affective against him and his abilities... I'm going to try and put an individual ward directly on you, do what you can to get anyone to safety, let me see if I can try and talk this out..." Kae whispers, then tugs what looks like a watchband from her pocket and tries to place it on Breath's wrist.. IF she can, the thing will glow briefly and ward the other... "It's a kinetic and energy ward.. You can grab things touch things as usual, anything coming in with damaging potential and the ward will protect, even if it's about to break it will stop the one blow... Don't engage either of them, try not to take a hit..." She informs rapidly and turns toward the conflict before starting to walk toward it.

Zod has posed:
     Not expecting Hulk to be able to change his momentum as quickly as he did, Zod is caught by the punch, the sound of flesh hitting flesh at pressures that can crack steel beams and leave them glowing red cracks throught he park sending Zod flying through a tree and towards a fleeing family his cape flaring as he spins catching sight of the humans he's quickly approaching he does the only thing he can think of punching his hand into the ground and digging a furrow to slow his progress he slowly starts to get up. "I do not need you to discribe this brute to me. Leave, try to evacuate as many civilians as you can, I will attempt to keep him contained." he tells Kae and Breath..

Breath has posed:
Breath sighs. And it had started out as such a good day.. She blasts off, heavily using ground effect, looking for anybody who might not be able to flee quickly. "Go! Go!" She banks to fly toward a slow moving elderly woman in a walker hobbling away and frowns.. she's just going to have to be a wall, here.

Hulk has posed:
Baring his teeth once more, the Hulk flexes his arm muscles as if stretching, and growls as he starts to walk in a feral, measured stance. "Hulk not stopped by anyone if Hulk doesn't want to be stopped. Hulk keeping black robe man from ruining city." Hulk gives with a hostile tone as he thumps around, waiting for Zod to make a move, or do more damage to the surroundings to contain him again. "Idiot General always thinking worst of Hulk too." Hulks rage is evident in his tone as they stand off. Hulk is still pissed off though, by his expression.

Kaelyn Silverleaf has posed:
Kae nods, trying to talk calmly. "Yes, and if you both fight here and now there is going to be a lot of destruction, more so than what he did..." Kae looks to where the ground and concrete is messed up and waves that small rod of hers as she whispers a few words. The runes on it glow and crazily the damaged ground, concrete and the like starts to reassemble its self... As the damage is done, one of the runes burns out, dissapearing and Kae glances at the item and raises an eyebrow... "Well that leaves a few more on this." She mutters

Then Kae looks to the Hulk "See, all fixed..." She says with a smile... She then looks at Zod curiously. "So something was hurting your hearing and all and ya were hitting the ground?" She says and rubs at her neck some, glancing back and forth... She then umms "I think, Kryptonians have muuuuch better hearing than humans... I'm guessing the city noises are a problem... Maybe I can perhaps help with the noise.. Then maybe y'won't have to hit the ground and make craters and Mr Hulk here won't have to smash?" She says hopefully.
