[POV Reo]
"So, where are we going?" Rumi asked while putting on the last piece of her armor.

"Los Angeles, California, have you ever been there?" I asked Rumi while looking at my own armor. Yeah, it has been quite some time since I wanted to try it out in a fight but I never got a chance.
(Image Here)
"Yeah, a few times. There are a lot of underground fight clubs there" Rumi said.
"You went there to fight? I didn't know that you liked to fight weak guys" I said in a teasing tone. A tick mark appeared on Rumi's head and she punched my arm… but thankfully she didn't use her full power, I only found myself embedded in the wall.
"That was a really bad joke… and I don't get jollies from fighting weak guys. I went there to watch the fights" Rumi finished with her own smirk on her face.
I pulled myself out of the wall… I wasn't even bothered, I waved my hand and the wall was completely fixed. "I guess I deserved that for cracking such a bad joke" I said dryly and offered Rumi my hand.
Rumi grabbed my hand and both of us Flash Stepped to Los Angeles. Throughout the last year, I have improved the Flash Step… back in the HP World, I restricted the jump distance because of our fragile human bodies. Yes, it might not have been a problem for Rumi because of her Armament Haki but she would have faced problems too.
But now we no longer have problems of owning a fragile human body. Teleportation is basically traveling through Space and traveling through space at such a high speed puts a huge amount of stress on your body. Human bodies were not built to withstand such heavy stress.
Now our bodies were strong and we no longer faced that problem so I removed the distance restriction from the Flash Step and it worked completely fine and our bodies were also fine. Well, I did have to make some adjustments to the spell, it had some rough edges but now it worked perfectly fine.
We no longer used Apparition… it was now an obsolete form of teleportation, well, Ororo used Apparition since she was still a human and her body won't handle such big distance jumps through Flash Steps. Without a sound both me and Rumi appeared on top of a building.
"So, where are we?" Rumi asked and blinked several times when she noticed that the building in front of us was surrounded by the army.

I was also surprised because Nat said that the army was on their way, looks like we were slightly late but from the silence, it was pretty clear that Banner wasn't here. The last I heard from Nat, she also told me that Jennifer should be in her office but it looks like she is also gone.
"I thought we should have first looked at Jennifer Walter's office. I will go and take a look, you can go nuts, I don't care" I said in a dismissive manner.
Rumi nodded her head with an excited grin on her face and without any more words, I turned invisible while Rumi looked down at the streets where the army was gathered.
[POV Rumi]
As soon as Reo mentioned that I could go nuts I couldn't stop myself from grinning in excitement. Oh, I knew why Reo decided to go on his own to look for Banner, he did this so that the army could get distracted by me and become unable to search for the duo. While the army is busy with me, he could look for Banner and his cousin in the meantime.
I have no problem being the distraction… I will also be able to get myself some fun. I extended my leg out of the roof and fell down when I continued to shift my weight forward. With a loud boom, I landed on the street. I didn't need to look up to see that all the guns were pointing in my direction.
"Lady, please stand down, this place is off limits" someone shouted from the army. I didn't even bother to dignify him with a reply and slowly stood up.
With complete grace, I started to walk forward. "Stop or we will shoot" the same voice was heard once again. I saw all of them loading their guns and just smirked, didn't they see my entrance?! Do they really think that guns like these can hurt me?!!
"Stun her and drop her" the same voice boomed once again. As soon as he finished speaking two projectiles were shot in my direction. Are they talking about the police stunners? I plucked out the projectiles from the air… electricity coursed through my body but nothing happened… yeah police stunners!! I thought dryly and dropped them.
I saw everyone take a step away from me and murmurs were heard of me being a mutant. Are they fucking stupid… didn't they just see me landing like that from the roof?!! "Drop her… she is not human!!" the same voice boomed. Not a human? Even I know that mutants are humans with powers.

They are definitely diligent rule followers. I didn't even bother to dodge the bullets… yes, I could have dodged them but it seemed to be a bother so I just stood there and let them hit me… only after few seconds, the firing stopped and all of them gulped and took several steps back in fear.
From the back of the road, I heard that the reporters were speaking rapidly about the incident. I looked down towards my feet and saw that the ground was littered with patches of liquid metal. I smirked and looked up towards the soldiers "Is that all you got? I was expecting some kind of challenge" I said and another round of fear-addled gulps were heard.
"Take this for a challenge damn mutant!!" the same voice shouting till now was heard now but this time he was hiding behind the others. I looked towards where the voice came from and found a stupid-looking man pointing a missile launcher towards me. "Go to hell bitch!!" the man screamed and fired the missile launcher.
This time I did raise up my hand to stop the rocket, I can't allow my hair to get messed up on global news or Fleur will chew me out. I don't understand I am out here spreading chaos and fear but Fleur is worried about my looks?? She needs to straighten her priorities.
The rocket collided with my hand and my right side was engulfed in flames. The flames vanished within a second and all the soldiers looked at me slack jawed. "Well, that wasn't nice" I said with a fake sad look on my face.
The man who launched the rocket at me was staring at me with clear fear in his eyes. I raised my hand towards the man and made a fist. A small shockwave was launched from my fist but the man who I was pointing my fist at would definitely disagree.
The man slowly looked down and found a fist-sized gaping hole in his chest. After that, he was unable to do anything more and dropped on the ground with a wet flop. The whole place was completely silent except for the noises coming from the helicopters hovering around us.
It might have looked like I didn't move my hand but in reality, I was so fast that no one was able to see it. I pulled my hand back slightly and pushed forward to launch an air projectile kind of attack.
(A/N: The attack was like the one Hit used in Dragon Ball Super, I don't exactly remember the exact name but I think everyone will be able to understand what kind of attack I am talking about).
"Now, what should I do next?" I said and giggled, I was knowingly wasting more time so that I could gather the army's attention towards me…
[POV Reo]
After I disillusioned myself I Flash Stepped right outside of the building doors. I saw that Rumi jumped down from the building… I have to say she knows how to cause distraction.
I entered the building and took the stairs, the army had cut off electricity, and Jennifer's office was on the 2nd floor so I had no problem climbing the stairs. Now, the reason I decided to check her office even after I knew that she wasn't here because I wanted to see what the army has found out about her and then obliviate the officers.
While I was climbing the stairs I heard shots being fired, I didn't even bother to check it out. It would be stupid to think that these bullets would be able to harm Rumi. That is the reason, I had wanted Rumi to become the distraction, I didn't want the army finding the duo before me… so if the army is busy with Rumi then I will be free to do whatever I wanted.
Sometimes things should be done silently like this… after all, Nat asked me to help Banner and if he changes into Hulk then I would have to break some bones in the least. Hulk had also shown that he is somewhat resistant to magic, at least in the comics, I don't want to take any chances. I arrived in front of Jennifer's office and found the place was crawling with army officers.
I raised my hand and bolts of lightning shot out from my hand and before any one of them could react all of them were on the floor. I walked up to the most important-looking person… he should be in charge. I picked him up and entered the guy's mind.
They didn't know a lot about Jennifer except what was on her file. These guys didn't even know if Banner came to Jennifer for help… they wanted to capture Jennifer so that they could force Banner to willingly become their weapon. With a wave of my hand, I disintegrated all of them… well, my hand slipped!!!
