Normally Limen was able to dodge projectiles fine enough. Hear the woosh of a sharp object defying the warnings of parents and gravity for a short while, get out of the way or duck underneath something that can take the blow for her, and then get on her way or maybe throw something back if she’s feeling oppositional. The problem was, chaos did not lend itself well to hearing the quiet woosh, and Limen was a bit too preoccupied to notice the flying object on trajectory towards her with her eyes.
So instead she noticed them via pain receptors. Limen let out a grunt as the two knives dug into her arm. Following the angle of the blades that had become kind friends with her arm, she was able to locate the general direction of the perpetrator, and a moment’s observation located her. It was the lady with the eyepatch Limen was not afraid to admit she was slightly jealous of, and she’d found a nice bit of cover. Limen had found a target.
Grinning and returning her bow to her back, Limen pulled one of the daggers out of her arm. She let it drop to the floor as she turned towards her foe, pulled out her brass knuckles, and slid them on. Then she scaled the nearest food rack. The boxes of baked goods were displaced in favor of her feet as she sprinted the high ground towards the girl. It didn’t take long to lessen the distance between them.
Limen crouched down from atop the 7-foot or so high rack and looked down at the eyepatched super. With a wide smile, she pulled the second dagger out of her arm and let it drop. “Hear that? I’m Skeletor and Cap’n Sparkle’s back up, meaning it’s my job to keep you off their backs.” She hummed.

Geata couldn't decide if he should be happy or not about how things were going so far. He hadn't been targeted, which was great and meant he'd be done considerably faster, but it also meant that odds were that the Pandas were the ones dealing with being attacked. He debated on whether or not he'd be better suited to helping deal with the opposition when Aurora's voice reached him.
Going after cans and boxes was simple enough, and he supposed it was as sound a strategy as any. Get the job done, everyone can leave with minimal injuries. All that was left was figuring out how to best go about getting it done.

There weren't words for how mad Lobisomem was. First came the relevation that Aurora was in, then came the fact the portal boy was helping them!
Currently, they were battling off the scraping in their eyes as they backed into the store. Windows cracked as their huge body brushed against them, and they grimaced as they felt food items crunching into the ground.
Quickly, Lobisomem blinked away the pain, desperately trying not to wipe their watering eyes as they searched for their enemies.

Talk about poor timing; as soon as Anonymous get a hold on his opponents’ brain pattern, he opened his eyes only to get a blunt arrow flew right at his face. He didn’t even have enough time to get out of the way and the arrow strike right into one of his eyes. Even if it’s only a blunt arrow, the arrow nearly gouge out his eye if it wasn’t for his weird anatomy shifting his vital spot out of the way barely in time.
“Son of a biscuit!” he exclaimed as he hold his eyes in pain, “Damn it, Limen, that's really hurt; you almost blinded my good eye.”
He started to blink carefully, despite how painful it is by doing so. Now that eye got all blurry and un-focus, he didn’t even notice a bunch of canned foods falling on him out of the portal that Geata made. Even though it didn’t hurt quite as much, but with the cans rolling around the floor, he has some hard time moving around the supermarket.
“Urg, that’s gonna sting throughout the week.”

Nemesis brought her sword up to block the squishy food being thrown at her. "That's not--" The other girl's mention of the slums caught her attention. She didn't need a reminder about how awful it was over there. Any other time, Nemesis would say Pandaemonium was part of the problem. But if they're stealing food to help the poor. . . then they both had the same end goal. In fact, it might be more beneficial to let them take everything.
No, that would be ridiculous. Instinctively, she resisted the idea of listening to a criminal that hangs out with terrorists regularly. Yet she didn't try to stop her. As the archer girl went on, Nemesis was slowly stripped of the will to fight.
There's always something worse happening. That was a dumb argument. Someone had to care about the little things. It was the whole reason she decided to run around as a super. Other, more capable heroes could handle the serious problems. . . is what Nemesis wanted to think. Considering more recent events, she had a hard time trusting that lately.
The sword in her hand flickered out of existence as, for a split second, Nemesis believed that these criminals were here for something good. Eventually, she corrected that thought and her power kicked back on, but there was no point in prolonging this battle. Looking around the half-empty shelves, most of the supply had already vanished. Even if she managed to beat them, how would she know where Skeletor's portals lead to? What could be done to de-sparkify Aurora's sparkles and turn it back into food?
"The folks out here ain't to blame for how bad things are." Nemesis gazed down at the floor. From the sound of her voice, she clearly wasn't trying to start an argument. She stopped herself from continuing on. Pandaemonium was full of assholes, but did every member deserve the same treatment? At least one of them might be good--
She brought a hand up to cover up her good eye. All of this thinking hurt her head. Nemesis walked away from the stupid store and left the gangster to their robbery. For a while, she stuck around to make sure they didn't actually destroy the building.

It seemed like the so called heroes were starting to realize just how pointless it was to fight her. Aurora was able to tear apart the meat and produce sections, and was even able to pick apart the bakery. Not only would the people in the horde be having the necessities, they'd be having cupcakes and other delicious treats as well. The distractions were working well enough that she basically had free reign of the place, and thus started to pick the entire store dry, only leaving things in cans or boxes to Geata because they were a little more inconvenient with her power. There were rivers of particles everywhere, and her aurora at the entrance of the store started to grow, seeping out of the doors like some kind of poisonous gas.
Aurora left some stuff behind, but not a lot. Shoppers would not be getting what they wanted today, but it was unlikely anyone would starve because of her either. Once she had her fill, she rushed towards the entrance, only sparing a passing glance at Limen and Geata. Even with the chaos of all the fighting, the sound of her the metal parts of her boots slamming on the ground filled the store, making it quite clear where she was.
"Geata, Limen! We're leaving. The pharmacy next door is next!"
With that, she was off, not even waiting for a response from her entourage. Aurora only took a moment to stop to let the doors open, then casually walked outside like nothing just happened. Her aurora trailed behind her like it was part of a dress that was far too big for her and dragged on the ground.

Lobisomem slammed their mouth and eyes shut as they felt various wounds open over their body, an irritating itchiness flooding the leaking cuts.
No, no, all their food was almost gone! The fact they had already ate wasn't surfacing, all they could think about was how fast they starved.
Desperately, they shoved some cans into a pile small enough to fit in their jaws, dashing away. Again, the animalistic fury consumed their vision. How dare they invade their store!?

After some time readjusting himself from the constant bombardment of can-foods and such, he finally able to get back on his feet once the dizziness was over. It appeared that Aurora and her criminal friends managed to get away with over three-quarter of the food in the supermarket, not leaving much to keep track on. According to Limen, they were doing all of this in order to feed the people in the slum. Though feeding the poor is a good sign of gesture, there’s a lot of better way to do it than bursting into a supermarket, stealing all the food and basically leave behind a huge mess.
Anonymous let out a long sigh; since the whole store is in a wreck, at the very least he could get what he was shopping for while the police still on their way to the scene. As he does, he turned his attention to Geata:
“Hey Portal boy,” he shouted to him, “the next time you meet with that girlfriend of your, would you mind giving her a message? Tell her that I’ve kept my end of the bargain, so now we’re even.”
With that, he returned his attention back to getting enough food for him. After all, there’s no point in wasting the opportunity; even he got to eat too.

Geata watched as the opposition backed away and nodded at Aurora's orders. It didn't seem that he had really caught anyone's focus during the fight, and things went exceptionally smoothly. He made a mental note of checking and making sure Robin Hood and Aurora weren't hurt too badly before he caught sight of Lobisomem running away. That was a situation that would clearly require an apology, at the very least.
Anonymous's request stopped Geata for a moment from following the Panda. "Why do I get the feeling that I don't want to know what you mean by that?" He sighed as he looked at the faceless super. "Yeah, sure, whatever, I'll just ask her." He pinched the bridge of his nose and continued walking to the exit, before he glanced at and addressed the girl that had tried to stop them. "Thanks for backing off, Eyepatch," he said calmly. "You've really helped a good number of people today. Thank you." With that said, he continued his march to their next target.
