Super Otaku Brawl - Round One: Traverse Town

"...and finally, Thanos. I know little about him, save that he is powerful, clever, and unpredictable. He is obviously the greatest threat to this city, but all of them bear responsibility for these shadow creatures."

"Got all that," Steve said, writing furiously. "But we're going to need pictures of these guys."

"Then get the pictures! What is so complicated about that?"

"Well, for one thing, we need to actually find these seven visitors of yours. And they sound pretty dangerous. I'm not keen on sending out photographers without some kind of protection."

"I have no time for your cowardice. If they need protection, I will go with them. That should be more than sufficient."

A vision flashed through Steve's mind of his new boss getting in a fight with a shapeshifter and losing horribly. That would solve a lot of his current problems.

"Your courage is an inspiration to us all," he said. "I'll get my best photographer on the case."

"Tell them to meet me outside the front doors in two minutes," Alenia said, walking out. "I've spent too long in this place as it is."

"Right away," Steve agreed. Or rather, as soon as he figured out who he disliked enough to send out on this assignment.
