Trouble at the Mall

(0.o You seem to enjoy murdering Zack's friends...)

Zack no could no longer cope with the situation, and dove after the girl with a feral roar, landing on her back. Everyone he had known, the three that had held him more or less in check, his only friends ever since his parents had died, were dead. All he wanted to do now was return the favor, give his friends as many people to talk to in the afterlife as possible. turned her arounf, pressing his knee into this newcomer's throat. The immense weight of the metal under his flesh providing all of the pressure he needed to pin and strangle her, but he pushed harder anyways. He didn't want to live without his family, and if these monsters wanted to kill them, he would fight until no one was left.

(How's that? Need more sensemaking?0

Joshau jumped when Zack tackled Cheshire. His rage showed as he picked Zack up off of Cheshire and slammed him down on the ground. He pressed his foot against Zack's chest and said. "Now your a coward too. Attacking an opponent behind her back." He pressed down harder, his three hundred pounds of muscle pressing down on Zack's chest. "There are more important things than your idiotic and useless weapons." He stepped off of Zack's chest and went to Cheshire, holding his hand to her. "Are you okay?"

(So, continuing with this, Zack's personality won't really let him back down and thus it escalates. I'm don't usually strain him like this, but then again, people don't usually kill his family either...)

"You murdered them! I'll kill you no matter the cost! My family's murder will be avenged!" Zack strained, and his magnetic field began pulling anything it could toward him as he poured his anger and sorrow into his ability. "You should never have come here, murderer! Everyone who dies this day dies because of you! You killed her, then you killed them!" Zack's nose began to bleed as he strained harder, pulling random metal objects to him. Even the ground began to buckle as the sewage system rose and the metal girders holding the ceiling began to curve inward. At this rate, Zack would be dead from the strain before the room imploded, but he couldn't care less. As long as he avenged the murder of his family, he was willing to accept his fate.

The crowd began to restlessly move around to get away from the shooting. The raging lunatic's condition only seemed to get worse the longer they went on. This was all getting a little too hot... but if this is how superheroes treated each other they would have no trouble taking over this planet.

"There's a shapeshifter in the crowd!"

He was spotted!? The girl? How? He didn't want to look back at the group no matter how curious he was and desperatly tried to keep up with the crowd moving towards the exit. There was a loud roar from behind, followed by a heavy *thud*. Now what? Chameleon couldn't resist the urge to look back at the scene any longer. In his rage the guy had jumped his subduer and locked her on the floor. The large bloke didn't let him have his fun for long though, and soon picked him off of her body. Mal'Zahar looked the woman straight in the eyes while she still seemed a bit disoriented and then continued to blend in with the crowd. He had to report this back to the Princess as soon as possible, but maybe it would be better to linger around just a tad longer.

Normally these kind of things happened when he took over someones body and wrecked havock in it. This guy was something else and way more fun too.

(( Want me to help putting Zack back in place or shall I take my leave here? ))

((No I got it.....and I'm not wearing my armor!!! I'm wearing patch work cloths.))

Joshua was starting to get impatient with Zack. His mental break down reminded him of a small child losing his favorite toy. He turned around and walked over to Zack. "Be quiet." He held his fist up and slammed it into Zack's jaw. A knockout punch. Sending the poor victim flying. He walked back to the crowd and said. "Everythings alright, he's not going to hurt anyone." He then remembered that there was a shape shifter in the crowd. He went into his pocket and took out a strange remote. He had to carry this thing in the absence of his helmet and armor. It had all the same tech of his helmet except smaller. He held the remote at the crowd and a beam of light shot out, spread, and moved up and down in the crowd. When it was done, it told Joshua by giving off a beep. He looked down at the remote and nodded, putting it back into his pocket.

Joshua then walked into the crowd and began to look around. There was a shape shifter in the crowd. The origins his scanner tried to calculate showed an error. He couldn't tell what planet the shifter had came from. It could be one of the planets he tried to conquer. He vaguely remembered going to a shifter planet, staying there for refueling of his fleet. He entered the planet without hostility and was welcomed without hostility.

Joshua stopped behind a man and looked down at him, watching his odd actions. He acted like he dismissed the actions and walked away, keeping an eye on him. He was going to find out if he was the shape shifter or not. He would find the shifter even if he has to follow every one of these humans.

(Um... it takes more than a single punch to knock Zack out? Most physical damage is absorbed by his internal armor... Which I still need to think of a name for.)

Zack's vision blurred as he hit the ground. Everyone thought he was unconscious, which suited him fine. He continued straining to pull the building in on him. These people killed his only remaining family, and he refused to let them get away with it. Honorless murderers deserved a fate worse than death, but in his present condition, death was the best he could do. He lay still and focused his efforts on the building, his permanent grin stretching from ear to ear and stained with blood.

With the girl retreating there was only one person still looking for him. The big guy calmed the crowd down, telling them he had it under control. He was getting damn close to finding him too, was this a coincidence or not? He wasn't so sure if he wanted to meet him head on without knowing he had the advantage. He seemed to miss one thing though. The guy he just knocked unconscious wasn't as down as they thought and still continued fuel his powers with death's grap getting closer every second. In the middle of the crowd he stopped moving, hoping the guy would at least notice he was the one he was searching for.

"You can try to follow me, but you might want to check your friend over there. I'm sure he'll appreciate you saving his life when you just destroyed everything he cared for."

Chameleon resumed walking towards the exit in a calm manner right when those last words left his mouth. Among the chaos he lost track of one person, but with the current status of his surrounding he didn't count on any surprises.

Joshua heard the voice but didn't see the source. He looked around but decided not to try and find it. He looked towards Zack and walked over to him. He grabbed him as well as his broken weapons, and slugged him over his shoulder. "Back to the Tower." He mumbled as he walked out of the mall. To be honest he didn't want anybody else to be harmed.
