Players: Apache Chief, Giganta, Steel, Black Lightning
Location(s): Metropolis
Plot Summary: The first fight on this trip is against Giganta.
"What was so urgent that I had to leave that quickly?" Raven asked his meddlesome ring as he appeared in the middle of Metropolis. "Your skills are needed to stop this threat in progress," the ring informed the man of the reason he was brought to the streets of Superman's city. "But I do not have my staff or my axe or my staff. How am I supposed to do that?" Raven protested the notion of fighting without his enchanted weapons. He was skilled in tracking and hand to hand, but he had a feeling that he was going to need his whole skillset for this one. "Remember what you have learned so far," the ring stated ominously as a giant woman came into his view.
"Where did you come from?" Giganta bellowed as she took a step toward Raven's location, stopping just before the man. "Actually it does not matter, I am on my way out of here," she continued on as if he was not in her way, which at that point he was not. "No you will not, you are not going to get away" Raven shouted to the woman stepping over top of him. She did not acknowledge his words though which prompt him to chant his magical words, "Inukchuk!" With that the white lantern ring emitted a bright light before activating his tattoos for him to grow equal in height to her.
"What the?" Giganta let out as she turned just in time to catch a right cross from Raven's fist. "Stand down," he stated to the now fallen woman, who was now picking herself up off the street. "No, just because you are now the same size as I am does not mean I have to listen to a word you have to say," she shouted as she charged toward him once more. "Then my actions will have to speak louder," he stated bluntly as he countered the assault with a block then a strike to her neck dropping her to her knees then to her side unconscious. He apparently still was proficient in hand to hand. This was good to see his skills were not lacking.
"uggh...." Giganta let out as she shrunk in size and rolled over to her side as she was now back to normal. "I trust that you can handle things from here. I have other places to be," Raven stated as he too returned back down to normal size over to the two Justice Leaguers that had arrived on scene. "Sure can," Steel replied stepping forward cuff Giganta with special power nullifying cuffs. With that Raven disappeared from the streets leaving the mess for Black Lightning and Steel to clean up. "Who was that?" Black Lightning asked as he motioned for the clean up crew, fire department, and the M.P.D. to move in. "Manitou Raven, though I think he is going by something new these days," Steel replied back as he yanked Giganta to her feet so that he could walk her into the back of the holding armored car for metahumans. "Dawn's dead husband?" Black Lightning asked back recalling the manitou name. "One in the same," Steel answered shutting the door, then signaling that they were clear to take her away. "Oh wow..."
