Various Hero Situations

So as I said, we've been tackling problems all over the country in smaller groups. This being the case, you can expect quite a few posts from the others, as there are plenty of missions I don't go on.

Oh, and in case you were wondering, Future Diffy is staying for now, we can't work out how to send him back, and besides, his future no longer exists. We've heard nothing from Moira, he hoped she'd open another portal door thing, but apparently not.

Ok, here's a group upload of a bunch of recent missions:

Doolittle here, I'm going to fill you in on that 'Psycho Cowboy' incident in Ely that was on the news a few weeks back.
So we heard about the disturbance, and as me, Jump, and Jingle were free, Jump teleported us over. We found the guy almost immediately, marching up the street, laughing like a maniac. Don't ask me what his ability is, I still have no idea, but I would guess Telekinesis. All I know is he had a Lasso, which he had EXCELLENT control over, and twin pistols that never seemed to run out of bullets. He was firing wildly in every direction, two people were dead already, and at the rate he was shooting, there would be more casualties soon if we didn't stop him.
'I'll cordon off the area!' Jingle yelled, running off to block the sidestreets with trees and tinsel. I started chirping and twittering to the sky as Jump ran towards the cowboy, taunting him. He began shooting again, and she set off on a series of quick jumps, flashing in and out of sight as she dodged round him in a circle. The last few people were fleeing the scene, and the cowboy was running out of people to terrify with his Lasso. He used it to grab Jump, binding her arms to her sides, holding her in place. She just grinned. 'Sucker!' She vanished, taking the Lasso with her. It had been attached to his belt, and he let out a yell of panic, looking round for where she'd gone. Jump reappeared, still caught in the rope, then teleported again, leaving it behind. It was his turn to laugh, turns out he just summon his Lasso! It flew back to him, and he whipped it out towards me! I flinched, but the rope was deflected by a long strand of green tinsel. 'Nope!' called Jingle, whirling it round his head. 'Have at thee! Haha!'
It was some sort of crazy Indiana Jones fight. They whirled and whipped their weapons, Tinsel and Rope dancing wildly through the air. The Cowboy raised a gun, aiming at Jingle, but a pigeon swooped down, stealing it from his hand.
'Yes!' I punched the air as he screamed with rage. He tried the other gun, and the same thing happened. I heard flapping behind me, hundreds of wings flapping in harmony, and raised my arms. 'Get out of the way!'
Jingle's eyes widened, and he leapt behind a car for safety. Jump grabbed the shoulder of a last civilian cowering on the pavement and vanished with her.
'ATTACK!' I swept my arms forwards, and the huge flock of birds surged forwards, covering the cowboy. He screamed, and the Lasso, which had been weaving through the airabove him, fell to the ground. 'Phew! Thanks guys.' I dismissed the birds, and Jump took us and the cowboy to the special holding facility we've been setting up.

That's it really, hope you enjoyed reading!


Hiya! Future Diffy here, I'm going to tell you about a little foiled bomb plot that happened the other day. Tingle had agreed to help the police with a suspect they'd brought in for questioning, and me and Diffy (You know. little Diffy, Present Diffy) tagged along, because it sounded exciting, and Tempest says all official mission groups should consist of at least three, for safety. We watched through that one-way glass stuff while Tingle sat down opposite the wild looking man, who was handcuffed to the table between them.
'Hey, I know you. You're part of that freak group wots decided to stick your noses in and mess stuff up, aint ya?'
'We prefer to think of it as helping the world, but yes, I am, as you say, a part of that group.'
'Well I aint telling you nuffing, ya hear? Ya can't prove nuffing, and I ain't talking.'
'Oh but you are, and I am sure you'll give something away in time. Shall we start with the basics? Are you part of the group behind the bomb threat?'
'I said I ain't-'
'Simple yes or no please, or I will have to inform them you are not cooperating.'
The suited man next to the suspect whispered in his ear, and he shrugged.
'Fine. No.'
'Do you know the location of the bomb?'
'No.'
'Do you have any sort of remote trigger for the bomb?'
'No.'
'IS there a remote trigger for the bomb?'
'No.'
'Is your leader still in the area?'
'No.'
Tingle got up. 'Thank you. Your lies have been most helpful.'
'My wha-?'
'Be quiet. Wait here.'
Tingle left the room, meeting us and the DCI at the window. 'He's telling the truth about not having a trigger himself, and the leader's fled the scene, but everything else is a lie.'
'So, go and get the answers.'
'Sorry Inspector, I can only tell whether or not he's lying, not force the truth.'
'But Tempest told me of that incident where, didn't you make a man transform or something?'
'That is different, he was a shape shifter, my truth ability burned away his false image. This man has no powers.'
I coughed, and they turned to look at me. 'Uh, sorry to interrupt, but I know someone who might be able to help.'
Diffy strode past me, head held high. 'Step aside, it Diffy's turn!'
I turned to the DCI 'You have no objections?'
'People are going to die if we don't get those answers. If that strange creature thinks creature thinks he can help...'
Diffy turned to him, standing in the doorway, which Tingle was holding open for him. 'I not strange. I awesome!'
The suspect gawped. 'The hell is that thing?!'
Diffy climbed onto Tingle's empty chair, then onto the table. 'Shush! You Shushy your face. You only say answers now. The nice poleesy peeples with the hats and the shiny badges need you to say info stuff, and I is going to spooky you til you does.'
Rainbow mist began to pour from his eyes and paws, and he advanced towards the suspect.
I turned to the DCI. 'You may want to look away.'
The suited man tried to stop Diffy, but a small cloud of the mist flew at him, hitting him in the face, and he screamed, falling off his chair.
Four minutes later Diffy strutted back out. The DCI was already radioing several units, telling them where to go. Then he knelt down and personally thanked Diffy, who immediately went very shy, and then asked for a badge. He's pinned it to his hat. He's thrilled.

So, Tempest wants me to update you on adventures we've been having. Uh, let's see.......there was this guy at the bank, I shot his gun hand and his ankle so he couldn't get away, and there was that guy dressed like Bullseye...pfft, he thinks HE has good aim...aaaand there was that car chase I shot the tyres of....urgh I don't have time for this, I have crimes to stop!What is the point in being given shiny new plasma lasers if I just sit here NOT blasting stuff? Later guys.
