He'd tiptoe backward away from Wrath as the cement shattered and pavement cracked, though he was quite careful to avoid stepping on any of the cracks. He didn't want to go breaking any backs now. He bent backward toward Aurora when she asked him what they'd be able to do to them, and frankly that depended on the choices they made right now. But time was ticking away.
"That depends on the next choice they all make, but the little one has the mind to overtake."
Though he was hardly worried about it either way. He didn't have a horse in this race and was just along for the ride. The thrill and excitement of the possibilities swirling around him, around all of them. Battle was always so chaotic, so exciting!

Pride could feel the air move violently around him from the force of both fists clenching in complete and utter fury comparable to the blaze next to him. This this this RHYMING DISGUSTING FILTHY MONGREL HAD THE UTTER NERVE OF LAYING A HAND UPON HIS PRECIOUS TREASURE!! HOW DARE HE THINK HE WORTHY OF SUCH A CRIME.
"You do in fact realize the grave travesty you have dared perform you DISGUSTING MONGRELS, I SHALL SEE YOU HUNG UPON MY WALLS AS UNWORTHY TROPHIES AND YOU SHOULD ALL CONSIDER A GREAT ACHIEVEMENT THAT YOU SHALL NEVER GO ABOVE IN YOUR ENTIRE MEAGER EXISTENCE!!!"

Lights flashed into Azoth’s eyes like a laser show avenging its dead parents. Clenching her teeth, she squeezed her eyes shut in an attempt to stop the blinding and disorienting lights. She stumbled a step to the side and pressed her palms to her eyes, feeling like the world was shifting around her though she knew nothing had actually moved.
She couldn’t be certain because she didn’t know much of Wrath’s or Pride’s abilities, but she could be 95% sure who was doing this to her.
“Anonymous! Get out of my head!” She yelled through her teeth.
Aurora had given her a light ‘no’ on her question, but if Anonymous was going to play like this, she didn’t care. She was sick of the illusionist's games and she was not about to get sucked into another one.

It was in chaos like this that she thrived, despite often not being a fan of it. Constantly having to control millions, if not billions, of tiny little particles made it easy for Aurora to keep up with and notice details even in chaotic situations like this. She was easily able to track every person, every movement, and still find it easy enough to see what was in the room. All eyes were focused on her, and that was exactly how it should be. There wasn't any piece of equipment, or any particular filing cabinet, notebook, or computer she needed to prioritize. She could work at her leisure at this point. Quick glances at the parts she could suggested she wouldn't find a lot here she was interested in and suggested that this wasn't likely the main lab. Not surprising given how likely it would be that supers would attack anywhere they could find. While her aurora continued to assault the interlopers, she continued dissolving more objects and adding to it. For herself, she grabbed a broom to use as a weapon in the event she needed it, granted she mostly wanted it to lessen the force of her personal attacks against the civilians here. She wanted to hurt them, but not quite that badly. Not yet at least. It would all depend on how much they cooperated as always.
Aurora barely even noticed that Anonymous was trying to mess with her head. She was immune to the effects of her own power. While she could recognize the particles and could see them, to her looking at them even in their more condensed form wasn't all that different from looking anywhere else. In fact, bright lights didn't do much to her at all. She could stare directly into the sun with no issues, and she didn't even blink at Azoth's small scale explosion despite the light it gave off. All the changes to her eyes did was make her rub them momentarily as the room appeared to get a little brighter. Without even realizing Anonymous was trying something, she turned towards him while knocking some lab equipment off a table with a broom and dissolving a few notebooks and a laptop.
"Don't flatter yourself, I wasn't aiming for you," she glanced at the back wall and a hole that Anonymous should just barely be able to squeeze through appeared. "You can go. Shoo. There's no point in you being here because there's going to be nothing left by the time I'm done with it," she jabbed him lightly in the chest with the tip of the broom, not even hard enough to knock him off his feet.
She continued grabbing everything she could, destroying what she couldn't, and making sure the people didn't run away. Her aurora continued to dance around Wrath while maintaining the shape of a smoky butterfly. At this point, the people were contained, and Azoth's explosion made it clear that they shouldn't try to escape. She didn't have to worry about them until she felt like interrogating them and making it clear that they needed to find a new subject to research. In the mean time, there was a noise maker that needed to shut up. Aurora darted for Pride, continuing to smash everything she could both with and without her power on the way. Wordlessly, she winded the broom back as though she were swinging a baseball bat and tried to slam in him in the face with the dirty part of the broom while he was distracted by Azoth. That would do for now.
All that was left was to finish turning this place into little more than rubble, and then get the only piece of information she really cared about: where to hit next.
((Taking option 3!))

Anonymous only barely dodged out of the falling ceiling above him just in time for it to fell as it explode right on his face. Azoth obviously took his little experiment on her a bit personal it’s seem, and her plan was barely made it to his head in order to give him enough warning to get away. The burn did managed to deal quite some damage on him, and the pain does sting like a bitch, but Anonymous just dusted the dirt on his shoulder as his face started to heal itself.
“Thanks for that, Miss Trigger-happy,” he turned to Azoth, “all you have to do is nicely ask; jeeze, I’m not even done anything harmful to you.”
He then turned to Aurora, who managed to wreck the whole place even further. The research lab is now beyond saving, and the data probably lost in the destruction as well. He sighed while shaking his head slightly:
“That’s pretty obvious to see, Sherlock. Well, I would say it has been nice, but then that would be lying.”
At the very least she was “kindly” enough to make a big opening on the wall for him to leave. The hole isn’t that big, but he can easily go through as long as he turned himself into a smaller body frame. He slowly make his way toward the hole that Aurora made; before he leave, he turned over to Azoth:
“I’ll see you around, Misty. I have a feeling this won’t be the last time we’ll cross-path like this.”
And with that, he got out of the building, leaving Aurora to do whatever she want to do during her dumb tantrum. Once he managed to get far enough away from the research lab, he pulled out a small journal and looked through the point where he bookmark:
“Well, let’s hope the other place is still standing.”
