48 || Rage

Puppet's throat closed up and it felt as if she couldn't breathe. Her mind turned fuzzy and her heartbeat pounded in her ears.

He dropped him. He fell to his death. She took a shaky breath. He killed him.

Endeavor landed nearby, blasting one of Puppet's souls, destroying it. He was within her reach.

Her body moved before her mind could think. She turned on Endeavor, rushing at him without a second thought.

"YOU KILLED HIM!!" she screamed.

She wanted to kill him. She wanted to tear him limb from limb. She wanted to hear him scream as she ripped him apart in the most brutal way possible. She wanted to make him suffer.

She ran at the number one hero with a throwing knife, but before she could get near him, he blasted out a heatwave, keeping her back.

"I didn't kill him. He made me drop him, then he fell at a speed I couldn't match," he responded.

"You think I care?!" Tears pricked at her eyes from not only the intense heat in the air, but also from the emotions she was screaming out. "It's your fault!!"

While the conversation between the two was happening, Puppet's souls were fighting what few sidekicks remained on the battlefield. Hawks had taken out most of them, but there were still some lingering around.

Endeavor clearly couldn't keep up the high heat to hold the villain at bay, and soon, the heat diminished.

She rushed at him again, this time managing to get in close. She swung her knife at him, going for his neck with the blade.

Endeavor firmly caught her arm in his hand and lifted her so that her feet barely had contact with the ground.

He started to crush her arm, forcing her to drop her knife. She quickly reacted and flicked strings from her fingertips into his face.

The strings whipped across his face and he dropped her arm to clutch at the place she'd hit. The strings weren't sharp, but they still did decent damage.

Puppet dropped to the ground and went into a roll, grabbing her knife in the process. She went under and through Endeavors legs, swiftly slashing at his calf with the knife. She grabbed the same leg she slashed with strings and pulled, forcing the hero down to one knee.

She went to follow up her first hit by standing up and stabbing him in the back, but Endeavor quickly pivoted on his knee and blasted flames at her. She dodged in time for only the tail of her sweater to be singed.

As she ran, one of her souls suddenly knocked into her side and threw her into the ground.

"I've got you covered, Endeavor!" a feminine voice called. "Recover!"

Puppet pushed the soul off of her in a hurry and threw herself up just in time to avoid bright green flames.

Her again? Puppet's nose crinkled in distain as she turned and looked at Burnin. She's getting in the way.

Burnin was already rushing at the villain with her green flames at the ready. Puppet jumped back to get out of her range and slashed strings at her. In order to avoid her attack, the sidekick used her hair to fly up into the air.
