Crime in Time

Homewrecker and the Gold Diggers took Ebony Darkness and myself hostage, so I called Super Crisp to send in the cavalry... Apparently he didn't get my message but Icebear showed up anyway. Good news right? Well it was when he managed to defeat the low tier henchmen and disable all their guns. And it was when he managed to help me get down. And it was good news when he fought against Homewrecker. To be honest I was kind of shocked when he threw his axe at her; it looked like he was going to chop her arm right off... He didn't though, choosing instead to embed the axe in her and chill her down to slow her reactions and attacks. I should have been more wary when I saw how deep the cut went, but I just wanted ot get out of there. 
And then Super Crisp showed up only it wasn't Super Crisp. It was his kid? From the future? Said he needed his dad to be the hero he knew he could be but Super Crisp is the truest hero... I think Typhoon needs to learn from his dad how to be a real hero...
Before I knew it, there was a crash behind me and I turned around to see Icebear destroying Homewrecker, shattering her incapacitated body into hundreds of bloody shards. I flipped out on him because that's NOT HOW A HERO BEHAVES. And he turned it around saying that now she can't hurt anyone, but that can't be a real excuse. Lancelot thought that he was just trying to help people too, and so did the transformed we rescued, but they weren't just helping people like that, they were hurting so many others. We can't just murder those we fight against, it's not how Super Crisp would want us to act. It's not how real heroes act. But real heroes have to fight the same villains again and again. Smokescreen is still out there; Adamant got captured because she couldn't end things forever, Lancelot might still kill again. 
But that's what's important, we're not like Lancelot; we're not like GREY, we're better than them. We have the capacity to not just fight for what is right but to do what is right when the time comes for it. To incapacitate without killing, to stop villains without killing them. To help redeem them. I know that Icebear hasn't been here long, and I can't imagine the hardships he's had to endure, and the creatures he's had to slaughter to make it back to Midgard. But I know that he can learn to do the right thing, I know that he can redeem himself not just in mine and Super Crisp’s eyes, but in his own as well.
