Chronicles of the Multiversal Wanderer

"Haha! I'm far from Metroville!! Surely, Lucifer and that white haired Snow hero won't catch me here, right?" In one of the urban cities, a masked man wearing an all grey laughed evilly while eyeing the bank in front of him, clearly having bad intentions towards it.

"Hehe, money money money!" The grey man tapped his fingers against each other before crouching on the ground, much to the onlooker's weird looks.

"Look mom! He's crazy!"

"Honey! Don't point your finger at him!"

"What's this guy doing?"

"Should we call the mental hospital?"

"Sigh, another beggar has lost his mind."

Ignoring the gazes and whispers of his soon to be 'victims' later, the grey man simply closed his eyes and seemed to have entered the state of focus.

Thankfully, a nearby police patrol noticed this weird behaviour that is causing a little bit of trouble to the nearby people and quickly approached the grey man.

"Sir? Please scoot aside and do your thing somewhere private, this is a public area and you shoul-." Before the police officer could finish his words, a rumble suddenly occurred in the area.

*Rumble!*

"What's that?"

"It's an earthquake! Everyone, run!" As if some kind of chain reaction, the moment the word 'run' was heard and one person started running, the other people soon panicked and started running off on their own, causing a quick chaos on the street.

"Look how easy it is to make everyone run away for their lives! This feeling is causing me so much euphoria!" The grey man revealed his stone colored teeth and muttered to himself before continuing with his eyes focused at the side of the bank, somewhere away from prying eyes.

"They should have received the signal."

***

"That's Rumble's signal!" Inside a short jitty beside the bank, four masked men with four distinct different coloured suits quickly felt the earthquake and took this as a signal to start their plan.

"Matchstick! It's your turn to shine!" A masked man with a green suit pointed at the other masked man with a red suit.

"Oh yeah, baby!" The red masked man named Matchstick grinned to himself and planted both his palms on the side wall of the bank.

One might think he's merely touching the wall, but that wouldn't be the case as a red and yellow flash suddenly appeared on the gaps between his palms and the wall before a huge explosion occurred!

"Good job! Everyone, inside!" The masked man with the green suit quickly went inside, followed by Matchstick and the other two masked men.

Inside the bank, everyone was still kneeling under the tables or chairs by following the protocol when an earthquake occurs when an explosion suddenly blew on the east side of the bank, much to everyone's confusion.

Unfortunately, their confusions were soon answered when a green masked man suddenly entered while holding an SMG in his hand, before shouting so everyone heard him.

"This is a robbery, nobody moves!"

The green masked man then moved towards the counter before pointing it at an unfortunately woman who was kneeling.

"Get up! Assuming from your clothing, you're the manager here, right?" And after receiving a nod from the woman, the green masked man grinned to himself before bending and grabbing the woman's arms.

"Open up this vault, quick! Matchstick, Gale, Brad, what are you three doing there? Start robbing the fucking bank! We have no time! The police will arrive here any moment!" The green masked man turned around and ordered his companions, who nodded their heads like a chicken pecking its head before taking out their duffel bags and opening them.

"Put the money in the bag!"

***

Outside the bank, the police wanted to surround the bank however, Rumble, the guy who caused an earthquake earlier was preventing them from getting closer by using earthquakes to disrupt them.

"Dammit! Why does Metroville have superheroes but we don't? Stupid Super Relocation Act." A police officer complained while muttering the last sentence. He might be angry but he doesn't want to go to prison just by slandering the government's decision.

"What are we gonna do now? We can't get closer to him, he can manipulate rocks to protect himself from bullets." The police officer offering the same badge beside him also spoke out his thoughts about the current situation.

"Try convincing them and buy some time until the special forces specializing in this kind of situation arrives!" The police captain heard the police officer's words and almost can't help but agree with him, thankfully though the government has still decided to create their own special forces that will deal with super villain situations.

It would've sound cool and awesome as it shows the government's concern about it if it wasn't for its zero percent success rate in containing a super villain.

It's like shoving a middle finger to the government that only superheroes can defeat supervillains.

"This is the Vinston City Police! State your demands!"

***

Hearing the police officer speaking through the megaphone, the green masked man smiled and said to himself.

"Pathetic fools, they think we would fall for that shit! Seriously, they've been doing the same thing over and over again, and what happens? Nothing!"

"What's the problem with that? It just makes our job much easier!" Matchstick replied while watching the bank manager enter the passcode to the vault and opened it.

"Alright, enough chatting. All of you, grab what you can!" The green masked man said and ordered. It can clearly be seen that he's the de facto leader of this group of bank robbers.

After sacking the entire bank inside their duffel bags which is a hyperbole, the green masked and the rest quickly grabbed an innocent child among the clients before dragging the kid outside in the front entrance.

"No please! Not my baby!"

"Shut up, woman! You should've stayed in the kitchen!" Gale grinned like a madman and said, clearly having a grudge towards women, as for why? Only God knows.

"We have a hostage! If you don't want him dead, I suggest you put down your guns!" As soon as the police officers saw Matchstick holding a child in his arms, they quickly put down their weapons.

"Everyone! Put down your guns!" The police captain followed up with an order, albeit a bit too late as the police officers has already put down their guns.

Seeing the police officers following his words like a slave, Matchstick felt a sense of euphoria from having this kind of small power over the police officers.

"Are we done now, Psyche?" Just in time, Rumble approached them and asked.

"Can't you see how stuffed these duffel bags are? Of course, we're done! We just need find a escape vehicle!" The green masked man, now known as Psyche, replied rudely to Rumble.

"I'm sorry to inform you folks, but there will be no escaping that will happen in my eyes!"

Before Rumble could reply for further instructions, they were suddenly interrupted by a female voice.

Looking up, they saw three dressed figures standing on the rooftop, you can clearly tell that they're women from the curves on their bodies.

"What the?" Psyche raised an eyebrow.

"What? Feeling like surrendering just by seeing us, villains? Hahaha! Fear us!" A blonde haired woman with a very long braided hair spoke again and this time, the content of her words clearly tells that she's somewhat prideful for what she's doing.

"....Kill them." Psyche ordered monotonously while staring at the three women.

Matchstick, Gale, Rumble and Brad, all nodded their heads before rushing towards the building where the three women resides.

"Heh." Another woman beside the long blonde haired woman with tigress's features on her costume, chuckled slightly before jumping off from the building much to everyone's gasps.

However, what happened next surprised them as the Tigress hero surprising floated in the air, making the four super villains stop in their tracks and watch her in amazement.

Taking this chance, Tigress quickly dashed towards Brad and delivered a devastating blow with both of her hands.

*Boom!*

Brad flew away and collided with a nearby police vehicle, without moving an inch, indicating that Brad has passed out from the sheer strength of that blow.

"Brad! Damn it! These women are heroes!" Matchstick was surprised by the blow and quickly assumed that they're facing against new heroes.

However, what confuses him why are there so many heroes appearing one after another? Didn't the government long announced about the Super Relocation Act that dismissed all the superheroes in the world?

Was the Act secretly lifted without anyone knowing? Or do these heroes kept appearing just to spit on the government's faces.

Nonetheless, this event of new heroes would definitely decrease the crime rate by a very large margin.

"I'll handle her!" Gale stepped forward and declared before gathering an air vortex before his palms before preparing to throw them towards Tigress.

However, this process took 6 seconds long which is enough for Tigress to inhale and exhale consecutively two times before smacking her paw towards Gale's face.

*Bam!*

If Brad who is known to be their brawler among the group can't handle a single blow from Tigress, will Gale make any differences?

As expected, Gale's eyeballs turned white after being smacked harshly on the face before passing out on the ground.

"Take this!" Quickly making a move, Matchstick pointed his palms towards Tigress, gathering an explosive blow but before he could, a bat flew in front of him before turning into a black gothic woman grinning to herself.

"Blow yourself along with that guy." Mavis's eyes turned red and at the same time, Matchstick suddenly stopped pointing his palms towards them and instead, he grabbed his other companion Rumble before using his explosions to explode themselves.

*Boom!*

"Hehe." Mavis hummed to herself, feeling proud of her work.

"H-H-How is this possible?" Psyche gulped down very hard before trying to use his power on Tigress, a power which made him the leader of their small group.

A power of telepathy!

"Be my puppet!" Psyche whispered while aiming her powers towards the unsuspecting Tigress.

"!!!"
