[ACTION]

*At some point in time, a new device showed up in the Justice League building. It seems primarily designed for suiting up, and certainly when you saw it the first time, there was some sort of armor set up in it. But it's not there NOW, and the reason for this ends up being pretty obvious with the next video call...*

[VIDEO]

*...which includes somebody in said armor. Who is this stranged, masked fell -- oh, apparently it's Kotetsu, judging by the fact he just flipped the helm up. Mystery solved. The background behind him shows a broken set of doors, a perimeter of police tape located in a large radius around the entrance, some huddled, frightened looking people, and evidence of SOMETHING moving every so often through the doors, although it's too dark to make out anything properly. Tiger's still glowing faintly blue.*

Wild Tiger here! Jesus Christ, have you SEEN these things? They've gotta be the ugliest bastards I ever seen in my life! I could clobber them away from us easy enough, but they just kept coming! Good thing I had my Hundred Power considering some jackass locked the door on us while we were in there evacuating people! This is ridiculous!

[Honestly, he'd only turned on the smartphone because he didn't have much to do today, besides cook and do research, and it serves as background music of sorts. He's only started on the fried rice when he sees the video feed.

...screw fried rice. For some reason, he needs to find a way to help out, make sure those people (and Kotetsu) are safe. He snatches up his phone, throws on a jacket and rushes out as he answers.]

Where are you, old man?

Oi, Bunny! Hey, don't get so het up! We got this one handled! ...Barely. I think I pissed 'em off or something though. Dunno why! But if you wanna make sure I didn't miss anybody and don't mind dealing with those things, well...

*He angles the phone for a better look at the street signs.*

Hey, speaking of, check out what showed up a while back! Pretty sweet, huh?

*He shows off the armor again. Ho ho.*

[Goddammit, old man, he is trying to save your skin here. Don't give him a reason not to.

But anyway, he's been past that street before, asking around if people knew about that symbol in his memory. He'd never taken notice of it, but now he's running towards the street signs in the video as fast as he can.]

Next time you should be more careful about who you piss off, then.

[And there's a small flash of jealousy when he sees the suit. Great, and all he has on him are his regular clothes. He'll have to depend on Hundred Power for this one.]

Yes, I'm fully aware that it's "sweet". I know I wore something like it before. [Granted, all he remembers of his own suit is when he used it for the first-ever princess-carry, but still.

...wait a sec...]

Weren't you wearing a different suit?

Geez, don't remind me. I don't get this place sometimes! I had a perfectly good, awesome super suit that didn't require me to sign over my eternal soul for it, and they give me this thing instead! Geez! Ah well, I guess TECHNICALLY it's better. TECHNICALLY.

Anyway, how the hell was I supposed to know breaking that door was gonna piss them off so bad?! Or that safe with the weird code on it -- which, I might add, was an ACCIDENT. These things are freaky weird, Bunny!

I don't think it was that bad.

[...Kotetsu how are you even still alive.]

And you don't take the time to think things through. Try not to throw yourself in harm's way any more than you've already done before I arrive.

[Just going to sneak in, and hope he doesn't attract attention somehow.]

[Well if the place has been taken over by Oni anyway, then they're probably not going to demand compensation for the doors. Booster hopes. ...Maybe he should focus on something else.]

So that thing's yours.

Who's got time to think when you got big ugly blue things running around like that?! Geez, Bunny, it's not like you were there! I'd go back in right now to make sure if I didn't know that --

*GOOD LUCK MODE ACTIVATED*

...yeah, that.

*He looks at his overly elaborate suit fist.*

Yep! Pretty swell! Not sure how the hell Hero TV knew to provide a contract on it though...

...I don't remember that.

[He doubts if it's going to do anything, though. Anyway, just mentally cursing the fact that it's rather loud, even on video.]

It's definitely... different from the kind of suits I'm used to seeing.

Probably for good reason. All it's good for is telling you time's up.

*And just like that, the glow dies.*

It's one of those fancy new-fangled suits they got everybody wearing these days. Supposed to be more durable or something. Peh. No respect for the classic stuff. Gotta admit this thing's pretty damn handy, though.

[Oh, hell.]

I'm coming. Don't get into any more trouble till I arrive.

I guess it would be pretty handy for someone like you, since there's a time limit on your powers. Don't know how I feel about the look of it, though. Makes you kind of look like a robot or something.

Geez, what do you take me for? I can take care of myself you know! I'm older than you are!

Yeah, well, talk to the tech guys for the company I work with. It's their design.

I'm not the one who had to be carried.

[...okay, once, but it was by another guy, Kotetsu was not around to see it and if he had a choice he wouldn't ever find out. Ever.

Anyway, now he notices the broken doors and police tape nearby. He turns off the smartphone, turns on his Hundred Power (in case something goes wrong) and runs towards it. Come on, come on...]

*Oh hey, there he is. Kotetsu is, for the record, standing OUTSIDE the building.*

Yo Bunny! Boy, you got here fast, didn't ya? Wanted to get your share of the saving in real bad, eh?

That's really impressive! It's the first time I see something like that!

Hey, you happen to spot any of them around, tell me and maybe I will.

Of course, if I spot any of 'em around, they probably won't remember a damn thing anyway.

Heh. Well, I don't like to brag.

*Yes he does.*

Just remember your friendly neighborhood Justice League member when you need stuff done quick, ma'am!

Alright, thank you for your hard work then! If I can help with anything, feel free to ask me!
