You fight your way through to rescue the original Nightingale in the nick of time!

"Heh heh... We've heard you don't have any real superpowers." one of the armored Wonderland Warriors henchmen up in front of you says. "Our buddy there," he nods to that slimeball Isaac Wormer escaping through the door behind them, "told us everything you can do! It's Thunderbird and Dr. Rainbow - one girl with no superpowers, and one girl who can't fight!"

You crack your knuckles and do a stretch, bending from side to side and making a show of limbering up, showing off your amazing body in the process to the leering henchmen. "Doc," you say, "I would love to see you prove him wrong with that exploding lollipop trick, but do you mind if I handle this?"

"Uh oh." Dr. Rainbow gulps. "Excuse me? Henchmen? I reeeeeally think you should just step aside and let us through. I know that tone in Thunderbird's voice..."

"Hah!" another of the bruisers looming over you juts out his jaw and makes a challenging gesture with his shield. "You think we picked this spot at random? It's a narrow hallway! That fancy acrobatics of yours won't do you any good! And we've got earplugs in!"

"Really?" You touch your chin thoughtfully with a finger. "In that case, since nobody's gonna hear... I've always wanted to do this." you call on your sound control abilities and start nodding your head and tapping your feet to a rhythm, as the sound of music begins filling the narrow hallway.

"Is that... an acoustic guitar playing?" Dr. Rainbow blinks.

"Mom said the first time she danced with my dad was to this song. So I guess I've always kinda thought of it as my theme song." you say as an iconic singer's crooning voice joins the guitars.

"What does that say?" Dr. Rainbow puzzles over the phantom music you're conjuring with your power. "Something about 'I can't change'?"

You mouth the words as you start walking towards the confused looking thugs. "Lord, help me, I can't chay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ange!" you sing along with what is, technically, also your singing, picking up speed into an aggressive charge as the music picks up tempo.

A dramatic forward somersault that sees your feet pushing off against the ceiling is followed by your armored fist slamming right into the face of the confident, talkative mook who'd been helpfully holding his jaw out.

[Won't you fly~y, free~e bird, yeah]

The singing trails off into a wailing guitar solo as you unleash all the enhanced agility Raven Woman's potion gave you, and all the frustration your teammates, Bunny, Elliot, and Isaac have inflicted on you, moving seamlessly from one henchman to the next in an unbroken flurry of acrobatic kicks, elbows, gut-punches and leg sweeps. You send them crashing into one another, kicking high and low and everywhere in between.

With the heavy armor they're wearing, it takes a heroine of barely-above normal strength like you a lot of hits to take them out of the fight. But that's just fine by you. You have a lot of new moves you want to show off.

"Oh my! This is such a nice song but I don't like all this ****!" Dr. Rainbow shouts as you swing off a man's neck to bicyle kick a thug in the shield he's blocking with, drop the first one to the floor, and do a handstand landing before kicking the guy running at you from behind with both feet without even looking. There isn't a single pause in your movements. You are in complete, effortless freeflow motion as your bootheels slam into **** chins, noses and knees.

The tempo of your self-indulgent and definitely not legally reproduced classic rock builds and builds as your **** gets fiercer and fiercer. The henchmen valiantly struggle to remain standing against the acrobatic onslaught. A couple of them raise their hands and start begging for mercy, but they get smacked down too. It's only when the last one stops even trying to rise up off his feet that you stop relentlessly bouncing back and forth on top of their prone bodies, delivering more stomps and knee-drops each time.

"I always wanted to do that." you say. "And if the lawyers don't like it they can dry up and blow away." You slam your fist on the door controls and open it again, Dr. Rainbow meekly following.

...

A few minutes late you walk in on exactly the sight you didn't want to see - Nightingale, in her much-more-modest-than-your-version-but-still-pretty-form-fitting-and-sexy purple costume tumbling backwards and dodging frantically. The threat your mom is retreating from is a petite young blonde girl with stringy hair and a fancy, frilly red-and-black outfit with a gold crown upon her head. This particular waif, who you recognize all too well, is floating along under her own telekinetic power as she effortlessly swings an enormous two-handed executioner's sword back and forth.

And on the other side of the broad entry hall where you first entered this base (with a bunch of fancy faux-marble columns - perfect for fighting, and blocking sword attacks by ducking among them, which is exactly what your mom is doing) is Hot-Cross Bunny. She's walking towards the exit with an urgent yet dignified trot, heels clicking on the floor. "Oh dear. This is taking much too long." she says. "I'm afraid I'm running late, my Queen of Hearts! I shall be sure to send Cheshire Huntress or Mock Turtle or someone to discretely collect you when there's time!"

You narrow your eyes. Speaking of whom - how can you be sure that's your mom and not Mock Turtle doing that obnoxious shapeshifting disguise routine again?

"Hey, Nightingale!" you shout. "Are you not gonna say 'nice to see you' or 'I could use some help' or something? Busting out so I could help you wasn't easy, you know? I can't suck dick with this mask thing in the way, so ," you turn around and point to your well-toned buttocks, "when there were too many henchmen for me to fuck the normal way, I had to-------"

Your voice is suddenly cut off, silenced completely even though you're still trying to speak, as Nightingale groans in annoyance and kicks Queen of Hearts in her tiny tits, sending the psychopathic psychic flying backwards. You smirk and give Dr. Rainbow behind you a thumbs up. "Yup, that's the real Nightingale alright. Turtle can't imitate powers."

"Um..." Dr. Rainbow cups her hands over her mouth and calls out: "It was for a good cause, Mrs. Nightingale! Believe me, really!"

Nightingale!Molly finally addresses you, her red hair clearly matted with sweat. "Are you just letting Hot-Cross Bunny escape?!" she says as Bunny knocks on the exit door. And sure enough one of Doormouse's portal-doors appears. Since Molly had to **** Doormouse to help her enter the headquarters, it makes sense that she couldn't just leave him completely knocked out.

"Yup." you say. "For the sake of the cute little bunnies that would get stepped on while fighting her." With one more sway of her fishnet-clad ass, Hot-Cross Bunny is out of the building and gone to god-knows-where. Nightingale groans in irritation.

"How fortuitous!" Queen of Hearts starts floating forward towards Nightingale again, psychic power crackling around her as she grins maniacally with her yellowed teeth and disesaed-looking gums. "No more RABBIT telling me what I, the QUEEEEEEEEN, can or can not do! Let the execution commence! OFF WITH YOUR HE-ahhh?!!?"

Queen of Hearts begins to swing her enormous sword right at neck height towards Molly. A sudden rush of air blows through the room, and a green afterimage lingers around her until you blink. Queen of Hearts follows through on her swing... but belatedly notices that her sword is suddenly gone. "What...?!"

"That's right, keep looking at me. I'm the one who hit you before, remember?" You are focusing on suppressing Queen of Hearts' ability to hear. She is utterly deaf to everything in the room except for your voice. "Why don't you come get me? You need a sword to deal with me? With my weak sound powers? Here, I'll take this off just to make it even." you hold her attention by pulling the power-glove off your hand and dropping it to the floor with a clank.

"YOU IMPERTINENT WWWWRETCH! MY BARE HANDS WILL BE YOUR GUILLOTINE!!" Queen of Hearts shrieks madly as she launches herself towards you, arms outstretched. You call on the ability that you first used to harass Beast Beauty - vibrating her eyeballs as she stares right at you, to make her vision blur.

Queen of Hearts is too crazy to think or wonder why you aren't trying to dodge, and she flies right up to you - but before her super-strong hands can close around your throat, she suddenly stops. Looking down, she sees that she is completely wrapped up.

"What? WHAT? What is this?!" she demands furiously.
