A sore night.

(Apologies on how long this has taken to get done, life thoroughly pulled me away for quite awhile there. Please enjoy the double upload for the time being.)

I arrived back in the lobby area before we all stepped out of the training portal. We still had a couple days left before the end of the week and almost right away damn near EVERYONE wanted to head into the training sim, none more so than a currently VERY angry Mammoth and a quietly seething Jinx. First thing I did was switch out with my normal appearance from Devourius, following that well... Needless to say everyone needed to take a few minutes to calm down, but once everyone was more relaxed we all agreed to just order out. I picked up the tab for everyone of course.

One particularly MASSIVE order later, and a few explanations for WHY so much food was needed, had everyone relaxing and enjoying dinner. Gizmo spent most of the time either talking or brainstorming new tactics or gadgets, Billy and See-More were discussing what to work on with Jinx, Mammoth and Private both making it clear they needed more training BAD. So with that it was agreed that the next day would be spent in the training sim, so everyone could further improve themselves as much as possible. Everyone was quite sore that night though, so we all kinda turned in to relax and sleep.

When morning came around I was practically swarmed by people wanting to train, so breakfast was a pretty quick event. While the others were going through the training sim though, I had some things to handle with the business that had come up. What was going wrong? FUCKING. WALLER. Just... REFUSING to mind her own damn business.

What had happened? During the night a group of soldiers and mercs had apparently tried to raid the main office, searching the servers and trying to steal files from the company. How I knew this was simple, Ultron was connected to the main office so it was watching and recording through a system of hidden security camera's. Anything they could have gotten? Moved or deleted, with back ups saved elsewhere. They were a bit upset about not finding anything, so they started trashing the place and cleaned out the office safe that had little more than a few thousand dollars in it. Oh remember how I said soldiers AND mercs? Yeah... The FIRST team was soldiers, there was a second team that hit the office made of mercs. It wasn't hard to figure out who they were sent by, the only person that would do this was a certain self proclaimed greatest criminal mastermind.

So it was fun handling the police report about that. It was even MORE fun sharing the security camera footage with not only the police but the news stations. I also began looking into hiring some people to handle security for the office building, it wasn't that big a building sure but clearly I was gonna need to make some changes and get more personnel. Possibly those that have powers would be good as well. I'd just have to find some people that could handle the job first... By the time I was able to return and relax from such work it had been quite awhile. Between the phone calls, the insurance claims, not too mention having to call people to come by and help with repairs... It was just... a LONG day.

"Memo to self... PAY that BITCH back for this espionage bullshit..." I growled out to myself as I returned, it was nearly time for dinner I'd been run so ragged. I'd still likely have more to deal with tomorrow and the next day, thankfully most of the annoying stuff was dealt with today. Getting back I saw that everyone looked exhausted, they'd been training HARD, and apparently some of them were still going in the simulator. Gizmo, Mammoth and Jinx were the ones that were still going, apparently spite was one HELL of a motivator for them. Billy, See-more and Private weren't happy either about losing but they were already out, too tired to keep training.

As for getting back at Luthor, that wasn't needed since he was going to be dealt with by the Justice League soon. Tomorrow was the last day for our training though, after that Jinx and her group would likely be returning to protecting and helping out with the construction work. As for me? I needed to get things set up for the debut of Devourius. Ultron was already looking into numerous different options, but would be paying closer attention to Luthor in case he somehow escaped.

When the others got out of the sim dinner just arrived, Jinx had found another training in the sim that was helping her. I didn't ADD any kind of magic training to the sim though... I was informed a moment later about Ultron having added a few additional training courses to the sim, one of which would help Jinx with her magic tremendously. Mammoth was training heavily with a fighting style or two, apparently he had started off with boxing before going into a style recommended for him to try out. As for Gizmo he had started training with new gadgets or tech, he'd come up with dozens of new idea's apparently and just couldn't stop himself from working on the new stuff. While everyone was eating we all discussed on who would go into the tower tomorrow. Final decision? Devourius, Jinx, Mammoth, Gizmo, See-more, Private and Billy.

I was gonna have a huge amount of notifications after the training tomorrow apparently. I was looking forward to conquering the tower...
