Phoenix.
Perhaps the most untouchable superhero in the entire world—not just because it was common knowledge that she was friends with Megawoman, no—but because throughout her entire run as a hero, she truly has never once been touched by anyone.
Even the supervillains try to avoid getting into her radar, in fear that they might just explode one day while leisurely taking a shower. And yet, right now, she was on the ground.
And her opponent was someone they have not even seen before.
undefined"Everyone!" Alice pointed to Riley while looking at the shocked audience, "That's my son!"
"!!!"
"I'm not your son, Alice Lane." And although the audience was still completely muted, the shock that multiplied in their faces was obvious even for someone like Riley. He had told several times again and again that he was not her son, but Alice just doesn't listen. Perhaps… it was for the best that she wasn't the one who raised him.
"He's just shy, everybody," Alice clicked her tongue several times while wagging a finger,
"But we'll change that," and with those words, Alice pointed her wagging finger down—violently pulling Riley down straight toward her in almost an instant, before kicking her straight on the face and violently causing him to roll on the field several times.
"..." Riley tried stopping the momentum, but he couldn't. The most he could really do was just cover his body with a telekinetic barrier—and even that, Riley could feel being torn apart by Alice.
"So, having fun yet, my boy?" Alice snapped her fingers; her hair, tying up in a bun on its own as she did so.
"Honestly," Riley sat up from the ground as he looked at Alice, who was already rushing toward him with her fist locked, "I find your use of telekinetic abilities weird. You do not have to rush toward me and fight with your fists."
"Oh, believe me—I do," Alice let out a childish giggle; almost opening her mouth wide as she swung her fist toward Riley even though she was still meters away from him. Even then, however, Riley quickly moved to the side; sliding across the floor even while seated to avoid the violent wave moving toward him,
"But what is power without presentation!?"
A literal wave, as the floor that was made from themarian materials started to open up and threaten to swallow Riley whole.
Riley quickly flew up to avoid it and watched as the violent wave slammed through the invisible shield protecting the audience—that protected the audience.
"Wh…"
The violent wave seemed to have penetrated the shield, as the voices of the audience soon seeped into the field.
"I… think we're in trouble," the person right in front of the penetrated part of the shield whispered as he almost got hit by the violent wave. It wasn't only him that thought that, however. As soon as they saw the floor that not even a nuclear bomb could scratch open up, they knew they had to stop watching and run for their lives.
But they couldn't. If they leave now, will they ever see the great Phoenix use her abilities like this ever again? And it was against her son that they didn't even know existed?
Phoenix, the telekinetic god known for her childish demeanor and temper, has a child?
No, they will never get a chance like this again, and so—every one of them stayed.
"!!!" And are they so glad that they did, as the floor once again opened up right beneath Alice's feet.
"Oh?" Alice smirked as she looked at the floor that bloomed like a flower—a flower that quickly swallowed her whole.
"I told you, I am your mom no matter how much you want to deny it!"
The life of this flower of death did not last long, however, as its petals were immediately disintegrated as Alice just stepped out of it with ease; her eyes locked on Riley who was looking at her from above.
"But is this really all you have to show me, my son?" Alice then stretched her arms to the side—the remnants of the disintegrated flower, now forming into a thousand butterflies as they floated around her.
Now, one might think of this as a simple act—but no. And the audience knew that.
Alice had already ripped off a floor that was made from compressed themarian metal—compressed to the point that even if a dozen Star Obliterators were to explode right here and now, the arena would be able to protect the world outside.
It is stronger than the planet of Theran that is in its prime. And just a single chunk of it, even the size of a penny, is considered to be indestructible.
And for Alice to play with it and treat it like a toy is a testament to how abnormal her telekinetic abilities are.
"You are my son, Riley Lane," Alice smiled as the butterflies soon stopped flying around and all faced toward Riley's direction, and without even warning, they all started to shoot toward him,
"I know you have more to off—"
"Pavoom."
