It was early morning and Aura was walking torward the mansion, she had been gone for awhile and needed to pick up Alex. She felt bad using the place to watch her kid like she did when she had to be gone so long. her near waist length hair had been dyed a bright purple but otherwise she barely stuck out among the still waking up people emerging onto the streets. She let out a breath it still felt odd walking in the open like this at times, despite the surgery to grant her a new face. She had spent so long hiding, slinking through alley ways and often leaving them a nightmare for whoever happen upon the alley. So far she had not killed a single person the whole year.
That was of course when out of a swirling vortex 4 Golems emerged as it expanded closing being it. The smallest was no taller then a normal human but seemed to be made of a white glue like substance which it promptly fired at a man emerging from a starbucks and stuck him right to the window though it seemed no smaller for the effort.
The second Golem was near twenty feet tall, had two sets of eyes and seemed to be made of mirrors or crystal and when it locked it's gaze on Auras eyes i only for a moment she felt cold and old dark memories tried bursting up from where she locked them. The second set in the things torso locked eyes with a woman and collapsed in utter glee.
The third looked almost human other then it's silver skin but when a car struck it after slamming on it's breaks the things rubber like body stretched back and sent the car shooting in the other direction like a cannonball. It then jumped a few feet into the air, slammed down onto the ground it's humanoid shape distorting slightly as it then bounced high into the air before landing again on the hood of the car, it's footprints embedded in the car.
The last was made of amethyst and as it touched the cement sidewalk it's body was full of sharp edges and though slow it cut through a brick wall with ease the light reflecting through it's body like lens as it did. Nearly ten feet tall it was lanky and seemed to move in quick spurts of motion.
She had seen no one summon them but with all the people and the building and with magic and mutant powers and half the other things the city seemed to spring on them she was entirely sure they had been summoned by someone. Dawning the mask of her old face, Aura met the Amethyst golems blade with her own and felt herself skid back from the force of each blow as she probed for a way past it's swipes and considerd what she might be able to do about the others. She formed a hammer from the aura blade on her left hand and struck the incoming blade. it snapped off but the first golem struck the severed blade with its glue and amethyst golem proceeded to stick it back on then moved it as i nothing had happened.
She knew their was a reason she loved this city, it knew how to treat a woman and make her feel wanted.
