Jolt jumped back in surprise, his pant leg being singed by the flames. He fell back, bumping his skull into the sidewalk, as he got up wincing he noticed Raiden blacked out onto the ground. Still a little giggly from the gas, he managed to bolt forward and lift up the man and dash him out of the scene for the most part.
"Dude, this guy needs to lose some weight!h he strained. His brother looked toward him and tossed him a small piece of a torn shirt. "Put a mask on, stupid." "Fine, Mom."
Jolt eventually stopped and set the man down on a nearby truck, shaking him by the shoulder. "Dude. Duuuuude. Get up, man! Don't die on us cause that'd be really lame!" Meanwhile, Shockwave had been badly bitten on the arm by one of the smaller dragons, the pain was annoying him but he was able to ignore it for the most part. He turned towards Robin and Canary.
"Can you two do me a favor? I want you to attach the dragon to as many of the street lamps as you can, I'm going to lure it towards that next stop sign,h he ran in front of the dragon and imitated his brother's usual taunting "Nah. Nah. Can't catch me, and I'm the slow twin!" He sent out a small shock towards the beast and broke left with all the energy he could muster. He highly regretted the fact that he didn't stretch this morning.

(Nope, it's okay. Since Robin is busy irl, we can just assume he complies with Shockwave.)

The dragon turned with a furious screech to swat at the aggravating little creature sending more of those stinging beams towards it. It was tired of all these frustrating creatures and wanted them gone! Whirling clumsily, it thundered towards Shockwave, trying to trample him, but the reptile was obviously tiring. It's movements were slower-- less coordinated, and it's snapping teeth were missing it's targets further and further. Still, it didn't seem likely to give up just yet!
The butterfly winged dragons all seemed to pause, then in a strangely coordinated fashion, retreated into any hole or window they could find. Hundreds of glittering eyes watched them from the darkness of those holes for a moment, the disappeared, only to reappear on a higher level. Little pointed snouts followed those eyes, popping out from every conceivable crack and crevice. Each one opened to reveal a mouth full of needle sharp fangs and a gush of lavender colored smoke, drifting slowly down onto the fight. They were trying to smoke them out! With laughing gas of all things!

He could feel His shoulder being shook, but could offer only a furrow of His brow at first. The hit to His head was enough to kill other men, but it would most likely simply leave Him with a headache, perhaps a concussion. He heard Jolt's voice, and sensation slowly faded back to him. He was aware of what was going on around Him, but His eyes would not open. Perhaps He required a bit of a 'jump-start-' as these mortals called them.
Once again, lights within a fifty foot radius of the truck flickered, and the metal under Jolt's feet would start to tingle. He wasn't worried about the boy, seeing as he seemed to have similar powers to his own. Electricity would be harmless t him. Suddenly a flash of electricity formed out of Raiden's chest, making Him arch his back Slightly. His eyes opened, now glowing brighter than before, with small currents of electricity flowing out of them. The charge ended, and His back fell flat to the floor. He blinked the charge out of His eyes and slowly stood, paying Jolt no attention at first. He dusted Himself off, noticing a few rips and scrapes on His back from the asphalt, then turned to him, "Where is the girl?" He wanted to make sure Canary had not been harmed in His moment of unconsciousness. He treated the bloody scrapes on His back more like a nuisance rather than painful.

(ooc: The text should be fixed now...)
Jolt stared at the man in awe, the electricity didn't hurt him a bit but with Raiden's immense power, it was enough to leave a slight tingling in his legs. His open jaw slowly morphed into a grin as he stared at the man.
"Yeah, man, she's over there. My bro's probably barking orders at her and Rob to get Mama Dino attached to something that we can put a strong electrical current into. But seriously you gotta teach me how to do that sometime, that was sick!" he laughed, which probably wasn't the best idea since his makeshift, torn fabric mask was starting to slip. He had to avoid breathing it in as much as he could; he noticed the small creatures letting out even more and came up with his own reckless idea. "Dude, you go help the others, I'm taking care of the hoard of iguanas." Breaking the window of a nearby car and scrambling inside, he quickly worked his rebellious magic to hot wire the small and severely damaged Bug. Charging the car up with as much electricity as he could, he was preparing to turn himself into a giant, rolling metal ball. It was a terrible, most likely self destructive plan considering he never learned how to drive and this was most likely illegal.
But hell did this seem like fun.
Meanwhile, Shockwave was in a bit of a panic. There was MORE gas, and that animal was MOVING. Plus all these annoying tiny lizards! The gas was starting to seep through his mask and the sheer amount of it was blurring his vision. He could tell that Robin and Canary were making plenty of progress so his plan was well into play, noticing the creature getting closer to the target area. To prepare, he began charging more electricity into his arms. He was tired, but could see the creature tiring as well; he was able to dodge most of the creature's charging but had tripped backwards and knocked his head against the pavement below. He cursed and scrambled up onto his feet as quickly as possible. When the dragon got above the point in town where most of the electrical circuits were connected, he would send a shock of energy through the streetlamps or perhaps a telephone pole in hopes to take down this less corny version of Godzilla. If the electrical circuits and attachments added to the dragon by the dynamic bird duo stayed on, the timing was right and there was enough electrical force, this plan might be able to work.

(( I just thought you should know domo, but your text is still doing weird things. Now they're little numbers in boxes followed by gs and fs on some of them where apostrophes should be. ))
The dragon howled as electricity coursed through it's feet and up through it's body. It jerked and convulsed for a moment before throwing itself free of the blast, clear, but obviously damaged. It's wings twitched erratically and it continued to make strange, pained screeching noises as it dragged itself back towards the heroes. It didn't go far, however. A few more steps and it paused, swaying where it stood before crashing down on an unfortunate honda. It seemed to be still conscious, but it's breathing was ragged and it's eyes rolled back into it's head. Between growled breaths, it almost seemed to be saying something. If it was speaking though, it was no language that had ever been heard by modern man, and by the broken pattern of it, it was unlikely to make much sense even if it could be understood.
The butterfly winged dragons hissed suddenly, as if startled by something, and began systematically retreating back into their cracks and holes. They had seen or heard something that they obviously did not like. They did not retreat entirely though, as little pinpricks of light could be seen by the thousands-- eyes staring out from the darkness at their enemies, but doing nothing. It seemed almost like they were waiting.

" - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - [/b]ichard took cue from Shockwave and helped Canary connect the giant lizard to one street lamp at a time; its tail, its feel, dodging getting stepped on. Robin swung over its head, out of its plane of vision, and attached a few to the backs of its wings. Then he hit the ground they ducked out of the way as the blast hit the giant lizard. There was a roar that shattered a couple weak windows and made Robin's head spin. The crash was also ear-splitting, and jarred Robin's chest like a pinball machine was in there. Then a lot of rumbling, some heavy breathing from the giant monster, and Robin turned to see it taken down. It looked exhausted. "Whoa," Robin muttered, skirting the beast's bulk as he looked for Shockwave. His eyes snuck over to scrutinize the twitching wings. That beast was been humongous - who in the world would let loose something like this into the streets of Metropolis's slums? It was a strange question indeed. Laugh gas spilling everywhere, the street crumbled in ruins, at least five household pets had become snacks, and a few cars had suffered irrepareable damage... well, at least there was no atomic bomb! Another good days work. Robin used his cape to cover his mouth and nose from the gas and continued to search for Shockwave. He was worried a blast like that would have worn the little guy out just like the dragon - maybe was was trapped somewhere, or unconscious. That had been a huge power surge. "See if Jolt and lightning man are OK," he called back to Canary, turning back to his search. Hopping over a pile of rubble, he kicked a stone loose, and a cloud of gray coverd him. He coughed some dust out of his lungs as he poked around in the wreckage some more, looking this way and that for his little electric friend. "Shockwave? You ok?" He called out.

[[lol, our posting order is so mixed up right now, but I'm going to go ahead and post a reaction to Krepta's post to keep things moving. I don't think she'd particularly need a turn this round, anyway. >->]]
When he felt the large electric blast, then heard the large, dull thump, Raiden climbed quietly out of the back of the truck, still a bit unstable on his feet, at first. He looked over, spotting the large dragon being tied down, and the other small dragons retreating. He furrowed his brow in thought, then continued on toward the now defunct beast. He leaned down, almost as if listening. The creature was speaking in Dragontongue, a dialect Raiden was fairly fluent in, and even then it was hard to fully understand. It didn't seem like he was saying anything important, but what he did say brought a hint of troubled thought to Raiden's already solemn face.
He stood up straight and placed his hand on the dragon's nose, offering some comfort. "This dragon... I do not think it was of his on volition that this all happened. Something sinister is at work, here." He looked to Robin, noticing the young man was searching. Raiden was reminded of the source of the electric blast, and also began looking around, trying to sense where Shockwaves aura was.

Sweet mother of- That dragon was probably one of the strongest creatures either boys had ever encountered. Shockwave had managed to harm the immense lizard, but in the process had found himself wondering. What the hell just happened? He looked up from a cloud of dust and broken rubble; the dragon had managed to knock him back. His back was badly bruised and he was starting to run low on energy, he pondered whether or not they'd ever be able to take the creature down. He winced and looked around, he needed to find the others. "Robin? Sir? Canary? Jolt?!" The brother in question was too busy enjoying himself to worry. He was busy swerving down a tattered and broken roadway, sending small rodent sized creatures flying as he drove around like an idiot. Unfortunately, he noticed the creatures beginning to retreat indoors where he couldn't reach them. Now he was left without anything stupid to do- WAIT. New idea! He spun the wheel frantically to face the mother hen. "Oh hell," he thought "this is gonna be crazy fun!" Keeping the main dragon in focus, he decided on a possibly suicidal plan. Planning to hit the dragon straight on, he slammed his foot onto the gas pedal. His elder twin managed to notice this out of the corner of the eye and he swore his heart skipped a beat. WHAT WAS HE THINKING?! "Jolt, you imbecile! You're going to get yourself killed!" "But it's COOOOOL!"

(( I have NO idea who's turn it is, but I'm going to assume it's mine. Correct me if I'm wrong. XD ))
The dragon continued to mutter incoherently as it's body shuddered and convulsed with the aftershocks of the attack made on it. It lifted it's head and rolled a jaundiced eye toward Raiden, fear and confusion clouding it's gaze. It muttered something else and dropped it's head again, too weak to continue to hold it up. There was a sound somewhere behind it. An engine? Groaning gustily, it opened its eye again and wearily shifted to see the source of the sound. A small humanoid in what looked to be a engine driven cart barreling his way. The beast shuddered, battle tattered crest falling flat in fear and closed its eyes as it waited for the end. It was took weak to fight, and if the machine built up enough speed, it would no doubt damage even his titanic skull.

[[With your post we'll start the regular order over again. Robin, Krepta, Ziggy, Domo, and repeat. Canary is currently inactive. So I'm next! C:]]
Raiden noticed Shockwave, and briefly looked him over for noticeable injuries. He didn't see any of large concern. The boy was bruised and tired, but not seriously hurt. He turned back to the dragon, beginning to head back towards it, when he heard the engine revving towards them. He looked in the sound's direction as the dragon did, and saw Jolt speeding towards the already fatally wounded beast. A spark of intolerance grew in his eyes, and his mouth drew into a small sneer. He held his hand up, the muscles in its respective arm tensing as he focused. With a loud grunt of exertion, Raiden sent a bolt of electricity toward the a street light, bursting it out of it's socket. The street light fell in the direct path of the vehicle. If Jolt didn't want to crash, he'd need to slow and swerve.
No matter what, Raiden would run in front of the dragon and pull up an electrical shield as best as he could. His face held an expression of frustration and protectiveness. He held dragons in a high regard. His elders, the Elder Gods, were dragons. Very powerful dragons, capable of changing destinies of anything they so willed to, but dragons all the same. Not only that, but the poor dragon was already beaten, weak, and no longer in danger of injuring innocents.
