I'm Making the Starter Post, so I Pick the Title: Look How Cool Bliss Is!!!!!

Clowns made Lil' Bliss cry so much Ashley had to take her home. The regular Bliss knew nothing of this misadventure. If she knew, she would think two things. Just two. I'll explain them for you. One, Bliss would have a flashback to Halloween when she was nine and a robot skeleton jumped out and made her cry so much her mom had to take her home. She would think that. She would never admit it. Two, she would assume clowns would never come in to her plans for the evening.

Bliss thought putting up a poll to plan her Halloween costume would make her more likeable. It took her one day to realize dressing up like Hitler would not endear her to anyone. So, she rigged the poll to come up as 'Pirate'. Then, she traced the IP of the person voting the most to the cell phone of Girl Alive! drummer Bonnie. "This means war Bonnie. And, I don't think you have it in you."

Fixing the black corset over the red and white long sleeve blouse cut off some of Bliss' circulation. "If only I didn't have these stupid ribs, this would fit perfectly." Her skirt fell over the black stocking, just above the black and red socks pulled above her knees. The red heels pulled nicely with a little white and black skull on the front. "Now all I need is a good sole insert for the shoes I wear when I'm done with this." The face paint she choose came from a Google search on Halloween costumes. She painted her face white, then added black detail to give her cheeks and eye sockets black a skull look with a little Mexicano flair. "Perfecto."

Across town, at the Museum of Metagenetics, a festivity of Super Heroes took to full swing. Children of all ages poured through the halls with parents in tow to see the exhibits. A guest appearance or two of superheroes might even show up. You see, Bliss planned on making this event tonight. Not as a superhero, but to help network with superheroes, because everyone needed connections. So, Bliss stepped past a few kids and their parents- well into a few of them- Bliss just got a text message from Ashley telling her of Lil' Bliss needing to go home after some clowns scared her with very macabre make up.

"Stupid clowns. I hope Ashley doesn't assume I would cry if I ran into-"

"Hey!" A shrieking woman slightly taller than Bliss screamed in Bliss' face. Her make up colored her face with blues and pinks, matching the pink streaks all through her hair. "I'm walking here white face! Get out of my way, or I'll make you real sorry!" She shook her fist while pulling her lips back into a snarling grimace. "I'm just kidding!" Pushing a smile out, the colorful woman smacked Bliss on the shoulder.

"Wow, you're funny. Like really." Bliss put her phone down as the woman walked past her. A shoulder bumped into Bliss. She looked up to watch a clown move past her. A second bump, then a third, followed by a fourth. Each person dressed like a clown with blood on their outfits. "Looks like Bonnie isn't my biggest problem anymore. I guess she's still bitter I made her pay back the ransom from Kovah- wait. Kovah?"

By the time Bliss put the notion together, it no longer mattered. the clowns and their leader, Kovah, made their way into the museum.

"Let's have fun!" Kovah yelled in the center of the exhibit hall. "Look at this dumb girl with wings! Is says she died!" A shrill laugh seeped into the memorial display for the winged superhero Eclipse.

A man stepped in between Kovah and the display for the Missing in Action Eclipse. "We're moving the device inside. We can set it up in the-"

"I wanna do what I want to do! Look at this dumb, dead, dumb girl! She has wings!" Kovah continued to berate the shrine, the clown, and the crowd with her voice. "Just look at her!"

"Yes. She does look dumb." A display screen in front of the clown showed the layout of the museum with a red light in the center of the building. "Now, we need to get to the neutrino displacer."

"Fine. We can laugh at this dumb girl later. She looks like that stupid popstar I love. The one with the songs." Kovah and her insane clown posse moved towards the flickering red light in the middle of the building.

"The control console in the security surveillance room is open. We vacated the room with laughing gas, and the girls got the neutrino displacer stowed away. We just need to make sure no problems occur."

And, here comes Bliss. "Why is no one answering their phone? I'm using the important line only for emergency." Bliss also used that line for ordering coffee, getting copies made, and laundry pick ups. "If Tyuki were here, she'd pick up the phone."

Out of the corner of her eye, Bliss spotted something oddly familiar. She completely recognized Miri, but she always looked odd. "There's no way she thinks this is Halloween. She just walks around like that." Bliss walked up to Miri, playfully punching her in the shoulder. "Hey! Girlfriend. How's it- oh I hate dogs. Go on! Get out of here!" The red heel flew off of Bliss foot, aiming to hit Ryzo in his head. "It was Mirror right? Hey, I don't know if you've noticed these clowns, but I need help dealing with them, because I believe one of them to be up to no- oh wait, I remember you aren't that smart and can't understand things." Bliss pointed in the direction of the museum. "EVIL! Follow Bliss! EVIL!"

"Annoyance?" Bliss shot back, stepping into the shoe Miri dropped to the ground. "So you aren't stupid right now. That's good. That makes this a lot easier. First of all, calm down." Bliss held out her hand to try and calm down Miri's quick draw. "We need to be smart about this." A crowd of people began to leave the museum, pushing past Bliss. "We can use the crowd as cover to get in there undetected."

Bombs began exploding all throughout the exhibit hall. Large red balls with black skulls on them rained down from the second floor as a clown continued to pull them from a seemingly never ending bag. Different colored gases all seeped out of the explosives, coloring the room in purples and greens. Two more clowns followed suit by hoisting a net to block the entrance, trapping the remaining museum guests at the mercy of the bombardier clown.

Every step Bliss needed worked against her. Halfway through her excursion all manner of subtlety fell to the wayside. Bliss just needed to get inside of the museum and find a way to put a stop to this before Kovah could do something devastating. "Last time, this clown almost blew up a city. I don't know what she has up her sleeve this time."

Telekinesis would only do more damage to the fleeing civilians, prompting Bliss to try an icier hand. Icicles began to form around the edges of the net, compromising its integrity. "Miri, open the doors for us!"

"Miri, what are you- what the hell is flexibility, love, and trust? That's a terrible magic girl oath. It should be unity, love, and justice." Bliss really thought long and hard about what her oath would be. She really, really did. "Get your dog a kennel and let's get this- oh, you're doing magic girl stuff. You know this is cultural appropriation right? You're like being very insensitive to me right now. Just saying."

An arrow of pure white shot through the net, letting the trapped museum goers push outside. Gas followed them out, purple and orange fumes mixed with green tints. Chattering laughter giggled from the trick-or-treaters as they pushed themselves to their feet. Danger still sounded inside the antechamber with each passing moment adding more flame to the fire. The time for a Blissful Halloween approached in heels not made for running.

One bolt of ice fired under the propelled force of an angry telekinetic dispersed enough of the gas to allow Bliss to see the scaffolding giving the clowns an advantageous vantage point to rain destruction down upon the fleeing museum goers. "I always bring ice to the party." Chill began to form around the ends of Bliss' fingers, slowly encompassing her hands fully in icy gloves.

The first bolt of ice brought the clowns attention to the incoming attack from the vampire ice slinger. One clown hopped down from the rafters to the ground floor, giving a heads up to another clown with a mallet hiding behind a pillar. Bliss hobbled over the net in her impractical heels, targeting the clown in her field of sight. She assumed Miri could pin down the upper level clown while she dealt with the ground floor.

The Bliss ice fist flew from Bliss' hand like a rocket punch, hitting the clown square in the chest. A bomb rolled out of his hand, moving closer towards a pile of circular bombs in the corner of the room. Fretting for the dangers soon to be unleashed upon the museum, Bliss ran forward, keeping her eyes on the clown above her. This left her blind to the clown hiding behind the pillar. The same clown who sprung forth in an ambush, hitting Bliss directly in her gut.

A second clown dropped down from the rafters, grabbing Bliss from behind and forcing her to ascend with him as his harness pulled him back up. "You freed our hostages. Time to take their place."

"Not likely." Ice formed between Bliss and her would be captor. The woman holding her recoiled at the discomfort of the ice, only to feel the much more uncomfortable impact of the telekinetic blast shatter the ice, sending little shards of glass into the clown's gut. "How do you like it?" The clown fell to the ground, incapacitated by the sheer force of Bliss' double tapping on her powers.

The corner of the room rang out with a massive explosion, sending gas all throughout the room. Laughter rang out from the clowns, leading Bliss to believe their masks gave them some protection from the gas. So, looks like Bliss needed a mask. She reached down and lifted it from the downed clown and secured it over her face. "And I thought they smelled bad on the outside."

Mirshann would ignore Bliss' sassy comments, mainly because Mirshann found it a waste of time to argue when there was more at stake than a woman's pride.

Feminism is important, but not whiny feminazis.

Ryzo would spring into action, moving after Bliss and her icy fists of fury. The canine made his marks, tearing and biting into the clowns, making sure to go for their ankles and Achilles heels. His carnivorous canines would tear into the tendons, making sure to leave the two clowns he bit into immovable.

One of which Bliss had just double tapped to the ground.

Mirshann kept her distance, doubling her magic to use her eyes to see the details of the fights, and also draw back arrows and fire them as she saw fit.

She then saw the bomb roll off toward other bombs - and she had knocked an arrow previously.

As she let it go, she willed the magical arrow to form a barrier around of the blast, controlling it and holding it into the sphere. However, the explosion went downward, creating a rather large crater in the floor, while also shaking the majority of the museum. The large statue of the heroin Eclipse would shake and quiver, the marble wings cracking and breaking off.

Mirshann felt a bit bad, but only for a fraction of a micro second, her killer instinct kicking into high gear as she drew back another arrow and let it fly, pinning another clown to a wall, and then another arrow would fly, cutting through the harness rope keeping another clown afloat.

"Ryzo... do not breathe in the smoke. I see Bliss has put on a mask - get back here - but bring me a mask." Mirshann would command via a telepathic link between herself and her companion. Ryzo would comply, running out just in time. The smoke had started to irritate his eyes.

Placing the mask onto her face, she grimaced at the smell but overlooked it, stepping forward to bring herself into the museum.

"You will stop this insolent and foolish behavior, heathens. Back down or meet death." commanding with her voice raising in volume, she drew back three arrows and looked directly at the lead clown, Kovah.

Watching the field of battle through such thick smoke limited the good decisions Bliss could make, so she went for the next best thing. Ice climbed from the ledge of the scaffolding, giving Bliss an inverted edge to slide down. All of her motion needed to be controlled outside of the heels, but very little of it came with her barely competent slide down the ice- but, it looked good. Really good.

Coming off the slide with all the force of a great typhoon, Bliss packed her fist in ice. Her mask left the sides of the room to be desired, but she decided the lack of gas in her mask would make up for the lack of peripherals. A fist full of ice flew towards Kovak, bringing a smile to the clown's face. A cracking to Bliss' side pulled her attention away from the clown. Surprise took over her as Tyuki fell from a pedestal, raising Bliss' ice barrier to keep the statue from crashing down on her.

Ice shattered first, followed by granite. "Sorry Tyuki." Bliss began to lunge forward, but found no one to attack.

"That's mine!" Kovah popped up from Bliss' side, grabbing the mask and pulling it from her face. Gas pooled up around Bliss' face. A chuckle came from her, followed by tears from the irritation to her eyes. The laughing gas began overwhelming her nervous system, sending Bliss to the ground, trying to create an ice barrier around herself, but to no complete avail.

"Oh no, I give up blondie! Don't shoot me with your bow and arrow!" Kovah laughed as she held up a device in her hand. With a push of a button, she activated a kill switch in Miri's mask, causing a minor explosion followed by a release of knock out gas. "Oh, we're going to have fun now. I wanna try that bow."

Mirshann kept arrows coming, and Ryzo bit at the ankles of his enemies.

With all the strength of a raging fire, Mirshann notched back three arrows and sent them to shatter the statue of the angel girl, meaning to save Bliss from being crushed just as an ice shield formed to protect her comrade.

The arrows pierced through the marble, turning it from one solid piece to several million pieces on the ground.

Ryzo was running forward, his maw agape and readying to clamp down on Kovah's wrist. But even if he had, her thumb would swipe over the button to detonate the charge in Mirshann's mask.

The explosion sent a ringing in her ears, singed her hair, and placed burn marks over the edges of her face. Blood seeped from her ear canals, and she fell down to her knees, her hands pressing to the ground over her bow.

Thir'ku Mal'rak was still present, the bow shimmering with iridescent energy.

One of the dummy clowns that had stayed in the back finally came forward, a soft, gentle giggle coming from behind the wicked mask. And then the clown started to hover. The giggling turned to maniacal laughter, and the mask phased into a wide visor that covered half of a petite girls face. White A-line cut hair accented with a plum colored bow framed the freckled face.

With her arms out to her sides, Naomi grinned. The cape she wore billowed behind of her as she hovered above of the laughing gas, and a trained eye could see that she had a constant downwards push of telekinetic energy to force the gas away from her.

"Mmn. Way to start off with a bang, Kovah. You did good. But, this one is mine." she would say, looking down at Bliss and the shattered statue of Tyuki.

"It was so much fun feeding her to the wolves. Or should I say wolf? That Red fella did a number on her in Canada - or so a little bird tells me. How's it feel knowing your prodigy is dead, Bliss Fukuyama?" Naomi would lower herself down, forcing the gas around of her to dissipate, concentrating the cloud around of Bliss so she would be forced to keep the mask on.

Kovah was giggling in the background, readying her device to detonate Bliss' mask next.

"Tick tock on the dot. DJ turn the something- something- I want to blow something up!" Kovah pressed the button on her detonator, releasing almost much energy in Miri's face as the clown kept for in herself. "Poor blonde girl, now I want-" A clenched jaw bit down on Kovah's wrist, bringing out a very angry laughter from Kovah. Her smile turned more sinister as she looked up, pointing a bloody finger to the ceiling. An evil drone- it was evil because its motherboard never told it how much it loved it, swooped down, trying to grab the lion-tiger-wolf in its clutches, spinning, then catapulting the wolf-tiger-lion as far as it could.

A massive mallet- the best kind, would smack down on Miri's head, impacting with a savage force, but still containing a 'boop' noise. "Good job blondie, you got all the hostages fired, now there's an opening. Maybe two."

The ice around Bliss' face cut down on her visibility, but the gas would only cut into her eyes. The lesser of two evils still was nowhere near as evil as the lesser of two evil clowns. "Tyuki did more good than you could ever imagine..." The defense of Tyuki did enough damage to Bliss to make her cough up instead of laugh. "You couldn't even get close to her." An ice barb lunged out from Bliss, but it impacted into a wall no where near anyone.

Whatever clowns stood near here would barely be able to stand up to the awesome power of Bliss, but the awesome power of Bliss needed to know which direction to fire her blasts. Enough of the gas dissipated to give Bliss a view of the gas mask. A quick telekinetic tug brought it to her hand, and a quicker pull brought it snug over her face. "Now, I'm going to make you wish you never-"

A blast shot out in Bliss' face. Lights out.

Kovah tied Bliss' hands behind her back with duct tape. "I thought we'd have more hostages, but I guess it's all quality over quantity. So, how are you going to make them explode? Knives? Guns? Explosives! I love explosives!" Kovah hopped up and down, kicking Bliss in the hip in her enjoyment. "She wants explosives! I want explosives! You want explosives! Or, knives!" Kovah ripped off two pieces of tape, ready to silence any objections to the explosions.

Lil Bliss made her way onto the campus of the museum, sneaking through a fence. The calamity settled down, but the police staying away from the main chamber made Lil' Bliss hesitant. "Must be scared of something. Hey! Is that a dog? Cool." Lil' Bliss would begin making her way towards a clearing where she thought she spotted something.

"I like dogs. Are you a good dog?" Lil' Bliss put her hand out towards Ryzo's nose so he could pick up on her scent. "You're really big. My dad doesn't like dogs, but I guess that doesn't matter."

"It transforms!" Kovah pushed Bliss down and moved towards Miri. "I wanna see it transform! Let's see it!"

"Uh, boss, that might not be so good. This chick seemed pretty magical. Maybe we let her keep it." The assistant clown knew of Kovah's ill temper and sporadic behavior just as much as he knew of Miri and her magic bow. He was more afraid of the latter.

"Just let her keep it! But, it's- fine!" Kovah walked over to Miri, duct taping the bow to Miri's hand. "You can keep it loser. I'm going to transform you and the Asian chick into ash, but it won't be using magic!" Kovah clapped her hands with excitement as she went to work taping Bliss and Miri back to back. Staying true to her promise, she made Miri keep the bow- and placed a strip of explosives around the two. All under the visage of a sign that read in bright letters: Losers!

"Okay, first off, you're being a total dick right now." Bliss shot towards Kovah after the clown finished wrapping Bliss' left hand to Miri's right hand. "This is way beyond any kind of regular protocol on this kind of situation."

"You need to shut up!" Kovah reached in her pocket and pulled out an avocado. "This will keep you quiet and blow you up!"

Bliss leaned forward to smell the fruit. It did not smell explosive. "That's an avocado."

"It's an evil avocado! Just like this evil duct tape I wrapped you up with!" Kovah laughed in Bliss' face as she took a bite of the evil avocado. With chunks of green fruit stuck in her teeth, Kovah pulled out a hand grenade and bopped Miri and Bliss on the head with it. "Now this will do the exploding job! This will do perfect." One more bop to the head and Kovah walked away, leaving her goons to monitor Bliss and Miri.

"I want that avocado. I deserve that avocado."

"Wha-huh- you can talk?!" A queasy feeling took Lil' Bliss' stomach. "Are you going to eat me? Did- did you eat your last master?" Tears almost began to swell in Lil' Bliss' eyes, but something held them back. Ryzo calmed Lil' Bliss down. "Oh, your paw is hurt. I've got some Neosporin." A little tube came out of Lil' Bliss' backpack, and the gentle soul slowly rubbed the salve into Ryzo's paw. "Does that feel better? Hey, can I ride you? I think we need to be helpful."

"It's rock and a hard place. If you're going to hang around this- um, realm? If you're going to hang out in this realm, you need to learn the local tongues." The danger of the situation took some of the edge off Bliss, leaving behind the more helpful team player. "I can barely move my wrist, let alone squeeze out of this. Do you think your dog is coming back? Let me rephrase that, I think we're in pretty bad shape unless your dog- I mean wolf, comes back."

"Hey boss, they're being pretty loud. Can I get the duct tape?" One of the goons stepped past Bliss, taking a shot in the ankle from her heel as he passed.

"Yeah! Do it! We can draw allover their faces too!" A shrieking agreement came from Kovah as she pulled out her roll of duct tape, tossing it to her goon. "Draw 'loser' and 'fatty', and 'pizza face', and 'metal mouth', oh and put a grenade in one of their mouths too! Then write 'metal mouth'! Did you hear me?!"

Before any hearing could happen, all hearing went out. The loud explosion did the most painful damage to Miri and Bliss, whom still needed to fully recover from the gas mask bombs, but it caused the biggest change in the clowns and Naomi, knocking them all to a more submissive state. Or, at least it appeared as though it put them in a more submissive state. Naomi phased out, leaving Kovah behind, handcuffed to a rail.

Bliss thought she wiggled around to get out, but she barely even moved her head. A splitting headache ran through the middle of her skull, but she could not bring any of her hands up to try and cease the pain. "Miri. I'm going to bang my head against yours. Okay?"
