Sub-Superman will attempt to use his Super Ventriloquism to through a whispered message to his to allies, "I have a lead. In a fly saucer beneath the lava is the famous evil ape, Gorilla Grodd. Master of Mysterious Powers." He will then use his X-ray Vision to look either Superboy himself, or a spot that Jimmy can't see through.
Cap'n Bill and Vina hear Jimmy's disembodied voice saying Gorilla Grodd is beneath the lava, and he's very mysterious.
Jimmy squints his x-ray vision and makes out a lead-lined bag hanging in a wall locker. It's roughly Superboy-sized, but Jimmy can't see inside it, as his x-ray vision cannot penetrate lead.
Grodd switches on a bank of amplifiers, lowers a seething hot silver dome over his head, and commands, "BEGONE" at a shockingly loud telepathic volume! Jimmy, Cap'n Bill, and Vina, all alike, are struck by a sudden urge to be gone! Which, in Grodd's mental shorthand, means go somewhere else.
Vina uses her (super?)will to resist the negative waves. That and the positivity flowers and becoming a winged lotus above the glassine lava -may-allow her to act. Or speak.
Ever since the camo S appeared on her shirt, Vina has been feeling like, yes, she might have some of those powers. Mighty quick speed. Strong. Tough.
With that combination, she will try...to pull the capsule out of the lava.
Vina dives into the lava head-first, feeling its intense heat like the blazing summer sun, but she doesn't burn. Still, it would be very unpleasant to remain here for any length of time!
Vina is able to grab hold of one leg of the lava-capsule and haul it aloft. Once she breaks the surface of the lava, her Hawk wings can unfold and wing it skyward!
At first, the capsule dips to one side, being too heavy for Vina to hold level. When Jimmy grabs the other side, it levels out, but Grodd probably got rocked from side to side in the interim.
Grodd, sporting spiky spots in his hair which is the furry equivalent of bruising, opens a hatch and climbs out onto the curved surface of his lava dome.
"Why won't you take a HINT?" he roars. "BEGONE!"
And he makes a fist, which is just hanging there in the air. Vina, however, feels a massive strength bind her and squeeze her chest, crumpling her wings against her back. Grodd, in addition to being telepathic, has telekinesis, which he is using to attack Vina from a range at which she cannot reply!
The lava dome dips without Vina holding onto it, but Grodd can also hold it steady with his amazing powers of mind over matter.
Jimmy will use the his Sub-Super Strength to pull out the capsule as well.
Sub-Super will use his Super Ventriloquism to cast his voice to the side on the gorilla and, doing his best Shadow impersonation say, "Ha ha ha ha ha! Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of apes? The Shadow knows! Surrender Grodd, there is no escape!"
ReplyDeleteVina presumes Grodd is in telepathic contact with her to be causing this effect.
ReplyDeleteSo she very "loudly" pushes "an OM chant that removes all negative blocks..." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8sYK7lm3UKg
Capn Bill will call upon his lifetime of being captain, hence taking orders from no man, and his royal dignity as substitute sea king to resist the mental command.
ReplyDeleteThen he will command the fish in the ocean, any who may be in range, to come bring him his magical trident that commands the tempest.
