<span class="mu-r">“How’s about we do three versus three?”</span> you suggested. <span class="mu-r">“I’ll take Boomer and Cyclone against the rest of you. Sound good?”</span>
The others exchanged glances and muttered amongst themselves, before turning to you and nodding.
<span class="mu-g">“Sure, I’m game.”</span> Scorpia agreed.
<span class="mu-r">“This ought to be fun.”</span> Speed Demon said, a mischievous grin spreading across his face.
<span class="mu-r">“Cool. Do you think you can find us a good place to train, Joe?”</span> you asked the maggioso.
He scratched his chin and made a thoughtful hum.
<span class="mu-b">“I think I might know a place. I’ll have the boys bring a car out back.”</span>
<span class="mu-s">“Is no one going to ask why the ‘earth guy’ is going to space? Am I the only one who found that weird?”</span> Cyclone said, drawing every eye in the room.
<span class="mu-r">“It’s because he’s chasing after the love of his life. What can I say? The guy’s a romantic at heart.”</span> you said, letting out a wistful sigh.

An hour later, you and everyone else were quickly relocated to a factory building that the maggia bought out and emptied. It was spacious, solid, and far enough away from the main roads where no one could just wander inside. You were quite sure what was being produced here before, but you thought it might’ve been toys, judging by some of the posters that were still hanging around.
Smartly, Joe had opted to wait outside until the six of you were finished. On one side, you, Boomer and Cyclone prepared for what was supposed to be a friendly mock battle. On the other end of the large room, Scorpia, Hydro-Man and Speed Demon huddled together to assemble a plan.
<span class="mu-b">"This is gonna be a piece of cake."</span> Boomer confidently asserted, casually tossing a white boomerang around the room and catching it with ease.
<span class="mu-s">"Just try not to hit me with one of those things."</span> Cyclone said, performing a series of stretches in preparation for the battle. <span class="mu-s">"I assume that you can aim them properly with a name like 'Boomerang'."</span>
<span class="mu-b">"You've assumed correctly, my flatulent friend."</span> Boomer replied. <span class="mu-b">"Although, depending on how much wind you whip up, it might throw off my aim, so...don't blame me if one of them goes wide every now and again."</span>
Cyclone let out a suffering sigh.
<span class="mu-s">"I can already tell we are going to work terribly together."</span>
What will you do?
>Tell Boomer to focus on someone. (Scorpia/Speed Demon/Hydro-Man)
>Tell Cyclone to focus on someone. (Scorpia/Speed Demon/Hydro-Man)
>Tell them both to focus on one person and take them out quickly. You want to see how they perform under pressure. (Scorpia/Speed Demon/Hydro-Man)
>Let everyone do their own thing. You want to test their decision-making, as well as their combat capabilities.
>Coordinate an offensive strategy with your teammates.(Write-in.)
>Try a bit of everything. There’s no reason why you can’t go more than one round.
>Write-in.
