This headache is later revealed to be the work of Panacea messing with her bugs, but Taylor is confused as she doesn't know any heroes that have those sorts of abilities.īitch gives up on Vista, and orders Judas to stop attacking Gallant, who is struggling to stand, and attack Kid Win.

Bitch herself attacks Vista directly, but the Ward expands the space between them, retreating.Īt this point, Taylor begins to feel a headache coming on. In her rage she orders Judas to attack him. One of Gallant's emotion blasts hits her, making her extremely angry. Judas takes a few glancing shots, but Vista raises the ground in front of him, making him fall and fling Bitch forward. In the meantime, Aegis has been trapped between two of Bitch's dogs, Angelica and Brutus and Bitch is riding on Judas towards Vista as well, while Gallant and Kid Win shoot lasers and emotion blasts at her. With Clockblocker trapped, Taylor decides to turn her attention to Vista, the other high-priority target. He freezes all the bugs, pinning himself to the street, and she retreats her bugs, apologising under her breath. Taylor forces bugs into his mouth, his ear canals and over his face. In his panic, he clotheslines himself on frozen bugs, falling to the ground. When he tries to ignore them, she starts biting and stinging him. Meanwhile, Taylor attacks the real Clockblocker with her bugs, but he keeps freezing them while he tries to get to Aegis, spinning to make sure the frozen bugs are behind him. Bitch feints towards Clockblocker (dressed as Aegis), but changes direction towards Aegis (dressed as Clockblocker). Grue and Regent head out to fight, while Taylor and Tattletale watch from the windows. The hostages were instructed to run as far out before Grue's power hit them, and then lie down.īefore Bitch can run out, Tattletale informs them that Aegis and Clockblocker have switched costumes, and Bitch should attack Clockblocker. The Undersiders start by releasing several hostages out the lobby doors, followed by a cloud of Grue's darkness, in order to dissuade the Wards from firing blindly. Added to that, Clockblocker and Aegis have swapped costumes, possibly to bait Bitch into attacking Clockblocker and getting frozen.

Unknown to both the Undersiders and the Wards, Panacea is among the hostages. On the way to the bank, Gallant invited Glory Girl to help, who has landed on the roof. Shadow Stalker was too far away to participate and was instructed to stay put. The Wards, sans Shadow Stalker have arrived and are lined outside, hesitant to attack. They were instructed to do this by their mysterious employer, though they negotiated a big payday. The Undersiders are in the process of robbing the Brockton Bay Central Bank, holding several dozen civilians hostage.
