Six was floored without retorting right away. It was amazed by the sheer power of this woman; just what kind of cyborg was she?!
"You're gonna regret that." Six said. "Kill or be killed! That's the law of nature! You're just too ignorant to see."

Determining that an abrupt end to this slug fest was more important than the apprehension of those involved, Cap employed a different tactic.
Kneeling down by Titania: "Creel. Perhaps it's time to cut your losses, your wife could benefit from some attention. I'll give you one chance to get her out of here."

Aoko Aozaki
Six's words didn't do anything to calm the red-haired girl down. If anything, it just pissed her off a bit more.
-Oh, shut up. Threats and blowing people's heads up, is that all you're good for? Get that through your thick skull... LIFE. IS. PRECIOUS. You DON'T go around randomly killing whoever you want just because you can. The law of nature... what's next, eye for an eye? Cut the hands of a thief, the legs of an escaped convict?... Please. You're not in a friggin' Spaghetti Western. Try following the laws of your own kind, before even trying to understand the law of nature, let alone using it to justify your random killings, you fool!
She released the force field around Six, maintaining it around her.
-You deserve a lesson. If you're not gonna change, then go ahead, run away. I'll make sure to give word to all the heroes around that a murderer matching your description is on the loose. We'll see then if your "law of nature" is so universally recognized. Unless you wanna stay here and explain your view of the world with all those assembled heroes? ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Start H: 5/5 P.L: 2/3 E: 24/24 P.L: 5/6
17 stones (Efficient) into The Fifth Magic (Time Field, Time shift) plus 5 from Magister; 7 into a Force Field to protect myself just in case; 15 to mess with Six's attacks (slow them down, age them till they vanish, etc) if it chooses to try and shoot someone else.
End E: 16/24 P.L: 1/6 Defense:: 20 (3 Ref.Dodge, 2 Toughness, 1 Power Level, 14 actions) Mental Defense: 14 (7 Intelligence, 7 Mental Defense) Resistance +8 (8 Magical Defense)

"Want to brand me as the enemy? Fine by me. This isn't my first time dealing with bureaucratic, my-way-or-the-highway, high-horse f*ckers like you. You may be right about something, though: I'm not in your definition of heroism. The merc thing is just a means to an end; I'm not all about ripping people apart with gunfire."
It went silent for a brief moment.
"My dad once told me 'In order to build an ivory tower, you're gonna have to kill a few elephants'. And you know damn well who the elephants are..."
Then, it went on the defensive again.
"Bottom line is: there's a point far out there, when the structures fail you. When the rules aren't weapons anymore, they're shackles, letting the bad guy get ahead....Maybe one day, you may face an even greater moment of crisis. And in that moment, I hope you have someone like me around...to plunge their hands into the filth, so that you can keep yours clean!" Six bellowed.

Aoko Aozaki
-No. Bottom line is, you're dumber than you look. First, it's not "my way or the highway", it's the way of 'society'. The way EVERYONE in these parts get by, except the criminals... and apparently, you. As you said yourself... the place you're talking about is far out there. Now, here, the place where you're at, this ain't how non-criminals do things. There are rules, and they're neither weapons, nor shackles, nor letting the bad guys get ahead. You're breaking almost every one of them right now.
She shrugged, clearly giving up on reasoning with the Courier.
-If you can't live by any other rules than the ones in that land far away... you should never have left it. At this point, I don't care anymore. Leave, mister "End justifies the means". But if I see you again killing people you could have simply defeated without butchering them, I'll be much less friendly.

Vash the Stampede
Vash manage to disarm the man, but now, there were others that were arguing on the give of life and whatever. He had to put an end to this, this was getting out of hand or calming down, depending on wich side of the plate you were.
-Alright now! Let's all calm down and try to settle matters quietly!! There are innocent people around here! C'mon everyone!-
He said, trying to be convincing.

Absorbing man, just grumbles picking up Titania and running off. You hear several police sirens in the distance as dozens of cop cars start pulling in.

Aozaki AokoAoko sidestepped Six's attempt at pushing her out of the way, but she didn't pursue it or anything (first, she had told it she'd let it go, and second, captain America was after him anyway. She trusted the renowned leader of the Avengers to handle the situation!)... rather turning her attention to Absorbing Man and Titania, who were attempting to flee the scene. -Oh, please... face the consequences of your actions like adults for once, won't you?, she said, rolling her eyes, as she casted a powerful fate magic spell... ...which, once she was done casting, she answered Vash's words: -Couldn't agree more... mister... mister?, she asked, clearly not knowing the guy. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8 stones (Efficient) into The Fifth Magic (Fate, Destiny) plus 3 from Magic Gunner, plus 5 from Magister; split as follows: for both Titania and Absorbing Man, I give a Bad Luck of 5, for a Duration of 2 (10 panels), Only for the purpose of escaping the cops (total cost: 8 stones for each). Karma, man, karma.

Vash
Vash was glad this was finally over, but it wasn't for everyone. Anyway, right now, he could wish for a donut or something, would be nice. But then his eyes turned into another direction as he saw the girl.
-Yeah! He he...my name is Vash! Could I have the honor of knowing yours!?-
He asked with a charming smile.
----------------------------------------------------------------- 6 in social skills, socialise, charm, +2 attractive. To smoothtalk to her.

(OOC: Data, consider yourself revived this panel since the fighting is over anyway.)
Aoko casts her spell jinxing Absorbing Man, and his wife as they flee out of sight with several police in hot pursuit. Cap throws his shield at Six, but with six's sheer speed, the shield clips the courier in the helmet knocking it off Six's head. as Six got away by climbing over a brick wall and out of sight ducking into another series of allyways.
OOC: Six loses 1w due to whiplash from helmet knocked off.

Aoko Aozaki
Aoko watched, as Six attempted an escape with a bit more success than the criminals. She felt sorry for the Courier, as she was fairly sure it had no reason to lie about the place where he came from, but he still had to face the consequences of his actions in this place. This was no Wasteland without laws, and he'd have to realize that sooner or later, or be treated like the criminals he killed.
In the meantime, she reported her attention to the tall blond man. He had a beautiful smile, she thought. He seemed... like a happy child under the sun's rays. She smiled back.
-Name's Aoko. I'm... a magician. I was here simply to do some shopping, but stuff happened, and here I am, fighting supervillains. Let's just say it kind of went against my schedule. Oh well... that's life for you. Full of unexpected events.
She looked at the police cars parking not far from the scene.
-Bah. While I'm here... I might as well stay and answer some of those gentlemen's questions. I imagine they will have more than one, seeing how several of those criminals were killed.
She had said those last words with obvious discontentment, frowning with irritation. Something obviously bothered her a lot.
